My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1450: Chapter 1244: Tears (Part 2)

Old Master Zhang is increasingly at a loss for how to comfort his grandson. Perhaps as time goes on, these matters have become deeply rooted in his grandson’s heart, with no way to change them. He knows the outcome of all this now is simply the result of his own son’s decision. There’s no way to change the mistake his son made, so he has to take responsibility himself. Good things like shouldering others’ burdens don’t come by easily in this world.

”Grandpa, I understand everything you’re saying, but these matters have become ingrained in my heart, and I can’t give them up easily. Don’t you know that? My mother and father abandoned me when I was just one month old. As their son, how could my heart be at ease? I am a living, breathing human being too. I also wanted my parents to be by my side. I’ve borne this for too many years, and I’ve become numb because of it, suppressing my feelings over and over again.

None of you know how painful my heart feels. I tried so hard, but why did they ultimately choose to treat me this way? Do they really see me as worthless? Is it so difficult to come back and stay by my side? Is their idea of freedom more important than the lifelong happiness of their own son? Why are they so selfish while other parents can show great selfless love? Why do my parents selfishly pursue their own desires by repeatedly hurting their own son?

Sometimes just thinking about these things makes my heart ache so much. I can’t understand what kind of mental state my parents are in to decide to abandon their own son. I don’t ask for much, really not much. If that’s considered too much to ask for, who in this world would dare to wish for these things? Perhaps these are just thoughts from my own heart, and in my parents’ eyes, they simply don’t care. I truly want to return to the way things were. If I had known this is how they’d treat me, then I’d rather not have come into this world!

I struggled so hard to come into this world, only to end up with this outcome because my parents abandoned me. My heart hurts, it really does, but in the end, I still have to face reality. Reality is always cruel and there is nothing I can do to understand it.

Grandpa, you’ve said enough comforting words over the years. I don’t want to hear them anymore. I just want to know why, since my parents chose to abandon me, they still have to appear in my life, disturbing my peace time after time. Am I really nothing in their eyes?

I’ve been suppressing my feelings for so many years, and I never thought that one day I might explode. I never imagined my parents would reappear in my life, let alone that they would refuse to acknowledge me as their son again. They repeatedly disrupt my happiness while abandoning me once again. What do I mean in their eyes? Is my happiness so insignificant to them? Are they truly unwilling to let me live a happy and healthy life? They are my biological parents, and I really want these things to drift with the wind, but I can’t. I constantly think about how my parents abandoned me and let me bear the pain alone. I can’t forget the pain it caused me. I just want my parents to stay by my side and give me a peaceful family.

In other children’s eyes, this is just an ordinary request, but to me, it is the greatest luxury of my life, perhaps something I can never attain. Why is the disparity so great? Is it because I was born into a wealthy family, or because my parents don’t see me as their son?”

Old Master Zhang knows there’s nothing he can say now to comfort his grandson. Seeing his grandson in such rage, he knows everything can only be resolved by having his son and daughter-in-law come back. Perhaps the best solution is for them to sit down with him for a serious talk. If things return to how they were, he truly doesn’t know how to face his son. Zhang Zhentian may not even understand the extent to which his own son resents him.

Indeed, no one in the world forgives others for no reason. No matter what you did or said before, once you make a mistake, why should anyone forgive you? Continuous tolerance only breeds spoiling, leading one to think everything is taken for granted. The world is supposed to be fair with no one owing anyone else. Only by continually finding new pathways for oneself can one progress, with each path being a personal choice. What outcome awaits along the path is unknown and can only be explored step by step. So, who is there to blame?

Behind the smiles, there are no tears; when pain becomes unbearable, there’s no way to cry it out.
