Fated to My Billionaire Husband
Chapter 1004 - Chapter 1004 Chapter 1004 Why Leave

Chapter 1004: Chapter 1004: Why Leave? Chapter 1004: Chapter 1004: Why Leave? Ruan Tianling held her tightly, silently offering her comfort.

Gong Shaoxun handed her a photograph, “This is a picture of your mother, my dad said it was left behind by your father.”

Jian Yufei hurriedly took it.

Her hands trembled as she held the photograph, staring unblinkingly at the woman in the picture.

She bore a strong resemblance to the woman’s facial features, and Jian Yufei felt an overwhelming sense of familiarity.

This was her mother… the mother she had never met…

Tears filled Jian Yufei’s eyes, and one slid down, landing on the photograph.

She quickly reached out to wipe it, fearing that the tears would damage the picture.

Ruan Tianling took out a handkerchief and gently dabbed away her tears.

Gong Shaoxun said in a low voice, “There’s something written by your father on the back.”

Jian Yufei flipped the photograph over and saw a few words written on the back.

“Moon, I will always wait for you.”

Why write such words?

Why did her father say he would always wait for her mother?

Jian Yufei looked up and asked Gong Jiahua, “Uncle, when was this photograph taken?”

“It was probably taken about twenty-four years ago, at the time your parents were guests at our house. That was the last time they visited. Your father took this photograph, and after they left, it was dropped. I then kept it.”

Twenty-four years ago, before she was born, but her mother must have already been pregnant with her.

Jian Yufei examined the photograph carefully. The woman in the photograph indeed had a hint of pregnancy about her.

Did her father already know back then that her mother would leave?

Why did her mother leave?

Was it because of threats, or was she compelled to go?

Jian Yufei realized that her parents’ disappearance was becoming more and more complicated.

************

After learning about her parents’ situation, Gong Jiahua insisted that they stay the night and leave the next day.

The room he arranged for Jian Yufei was the one her parents had once stayed in.

The decor in the room had changed and had been renovated.

However, Jian Yufei could still sense the presence her parents had left behind.

She walked out to the balcony, leaning on the railing as she looked into the distance.

Directly opposite the balcony was D City’s largest Clock Tower.

The Clock Tower greatly resembled London’s Big Ben.

Jian Yufei wondered if her mother had chosen this room because it offered a view of the familiar clock tower.

Gazing at the Clock Tower, Jian Yufei felt as though she could sense her mother also looking towards it and taking in the night view of D City, just as she was now.

Ruan Tianling came up behind her and gently wrapped his arms around her.

“What are you thinking about?” he asked softly, resting his head on her shoulder.

Jian Yufei smiled, “I’m thinking about my parents, wondering where they are now.”

“I will help you find them,” Ruan Tianling said solemnly.

“My mother was already pregnant at the time, maybe she was a few months along, just like me,” Jian Yufei mused.

Ruan Tianling offered a light smile, “Perhaps your father held your mother just like I’m holding you now.”

Jian Yufei curved her lips into a smile, “That must be the case. Grandpa said my father loved my mother very much.”

Her father’s love for her mother might have surpassed his fatherly love for her.

That’s why he left her behind to search for her mother.

She just didn’t know if he had found her. If he did, why didn’t they come back?

They must be unable to return…

She believed they loved her too. If it was possible, they would never have abandoned her.
