My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1418: Chapter 1213: Everyone Makes Mistakes (3)

Old Master Zhang really didn’t know how to communicate with his grandson. Clearly, this matter was his grandson’s fault, but why did he blame it on his wife? Had his grandson, whom he had raised, become someone who didn’t even have the basic courage to take responsibility?

”Child, when did you become like this? The current you makes Grandpa feel so unfamiliar. Every word you say shocks me. Are you really the grandson I painstakingly raised? Why are you completely different today from your usual self? How I wish this wasn’t you today, but standing in front of me is indeed the grandson I raised with my own hands. I have no choice but to accept this as fact. Every word you said today is unacceptable to me and unbearable for your wife. You drove her out of your home and decided she would no longer associate with you. Does this truly give you peace of mind? I don’t even know what possibly could have made you become so numb and insensitive like this today. You know, the way you are today makes me very scared. I’ve seen countless battles in the business arena, the constant fighting, but I’ve never seen my grandson become something so terrifying. Grandpa doesn’t understand what happened to you to make you like this, but I hope that whatever it is, you can be honest with me. If in your heart I am still your grandpa, if you still remember the ten years of upbringing I’ve given you, if in your heart you still feel my love, then please tell me everything as it is. Do not hide anything from me, I can’t bear it!”

Zhang Yichen hesitated over this matter. He knew it was originally his mistake, but he couldn’t muster the courage to take responsibility for it. He knew that if he told his grandfather and his wife about everything, it would only make them feel even worse. He could only take all the blame upon himself, appearing numb and detached to bear the responsibility. He also knew his grandfather was saying all this for his own good, but he still couldn’t bring himself to speak, and could only silently watch Old Master Zhang.

”Is there really something you can’t tell your grandfather? Whatever difficulty you have, you can share it with me. Grandpa will definitely help you as much as he can. Do you really not trust Grandpa at all?” Seeing his grandson’s hesitation, he gently continued, not wanting to rouse the guard his grandson had finally relaxed.

”Grandpa, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but the time is not right. I cannot tell you. If I were to tell you about this, it would only cause more harm to both you and the woman I love the most. To make sure you both can live happily, I hope you will never know about this matter. Please don’t tell my wife anything either. I hope that by her temporarily leaving, she can enjoy some peace and safety.”

When Old Master Zhang heard his grandson’s words, he became even more certain of his suspicions that there was indeed a reason behind all of this!

”Since you are so determined not to tell Grandpa, then the only thing I can do is promise to keep this secret. I won’t tell your wife, but I hope that one day you can be honest with her. Don’t let her heart grow completely cold because of the hurt you’ve caused this time! Being together is not easy for the two of you. Don’t let a moment of discord rob each other of lifelong happiness...”

When I was numb and indifferent, your mom didn’t abandon me. In fact, that made me very happy. I was clear-headed about what I had become during that time, but I had no way, no means to change myself. The hatred deep within me was too intense...
