Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1167: [Bonus chapter] An Enigma

"But she kept Justin away from his father for so long? She only died when Justin was about three," said Raelle. "She could have looked for him during that time but she chose to give her son to Tang Hebe."        

    

"Because that was the safest thing to do," said Ru. "She was on the run all those years because her life was in serious danger. And she was even more cautious when Justin was born. She didn't want anyone from the D'Amico family to know about her son's existence or it'll only make him live in the same environment as she did or he'd be killed. But she didn't want to choose either. I think what made her convinced to give Justin a complete family was you."    

"Me?"    

"You saved her life. And she recognized you as the Xiang family's youngest daughter too. She called it fate that her son had with this family. Whether it was Professor Song Xin'ai, Xiang Weimin, or you. All of you came from the same family. Even if Professor Song divorced your father, she is still your mother. So, she wanted her son to be a part of this family. However, she couldn't find a way either. In the end, she chose Tang Hebe to adopt her son to give her son a legitimate identity and freedom." Ru gave Raelle a meaningful look, "You were the breakthrough to this family."    

"Huh?"    

"She asked Tang Hebe to look for you to repay the life-saving grace," said Ru. "Why? Because she wanted her son to reach the Xiang family. She was smarter than you give her credit for. She knew about your curious nature. And once you did research she believed you'd find the clues. Why else would she leave so many clues for the smart people?    

Raelle had a thoughtful look, "I got calculated by a person I never even met."    

"How does it feel?" asked Ru in amusement.      

"I don't know," answered Raelle truthfully. "But I guess, I'm not mad. After all, this calculation led us to find Justin."    

"I knew you'd say that," said Ru. "And that's exactly what she wanted. But she didn't tell the truth to Tang Hebe only because..."    

"She is too naive," Raelle didn't need Ru to complete that sentence at all. She understood it. "It's very easy to see through her. But since Genevieve wanted to keep Justin safe, she would rather play the round about game than tell her the truth straightforwardly."    

"So, you're saying that Tang Hebe's purpose was always to just bring the Xiang family's child back home?" asked Mu Chenyan.    

"Not really," replied Ru. "Genevieve truly trusted Tang Hebe's character. She believed she was trustworthy and even if the Xiang family didn't get to the truth, her son would still be able to grow up in love. She made all the plans. So, the plan to give Justin to Tang Hebe to adopt was real. She really wanted Tang Hebe to be her son's mother."    

"She was very thorough in her plans," commented Raelle with a little admiration. Of course, she admired it. Even if she was cornered from all sides in danger, she still found a way to keep her son safe, and not only that but she also planned for her son to reach his father. Although the plan wasn't foolproof, there were too many things that could go wrong in between but she still took the risk. Because it was her last resort on her deathbed.      

"That's why I said she was smarter than you think," said Ru. "She might not have the power to resist the dangers that surrounded her but she certainly had an active brain. If she wasn't dying, she definitely won't choose this route. She'd find another way to send Justin to the Xiang family. But sadly, she didn't have that much time."    

"Fate really played well," remarked Raelle.    

"Fate... The hand of fate remains an enigma, holding the keys to countless stories yet to be untold," said Ru. "Fate, the mischievous player, revels in its game. It orchestrates encounters like a masterful puppeteer, pulling invisible strings to bring souls together or tear them apart."    

Seeing how Raelle put her hand to support her chin as she looked at Ru, Ru stopped.    

"What? What are you looking at?"    

"Keep going, I'm listening," said Raelle.    

"Am I reading scriptures here?"    

"I think this sounds more fun than scriptures," replied Raelle.    

Ru shook his head at her, "What I'm trying to say is that you can't know what fate has in store for you. Even when you might think that fate is in your hands. No darling. Fate only makes you think that it's in your hands. In truth, humans are a lot more helpless before fate than we like to believe."    

"It's not scientific," said Raelle.    

"Not everything can be" replied Ru. "Some mysteries of life are beyond the science. You shouldn't be so rigid in your thinking."    

"So, should I change the way I think?" asked Raelle seriously.        

    

"No, you don't have to change yourself. You just have to think out of the box," said Ru. "You got used to your comfort zone growing up. That's why, your thinking is sometimes rigid. But you have already taken a step out of those comfort zone, it won't be difficult to see a lot more things that you always didn't want to see before."    

Raelle lowered her eyes and contemplated those words. Did she really got used to her comfort zone? What was her comfort zone and who made it for her? How come she was even beginning to question it herself just because this person in front of her said so?    

She only met this green-eyed charmer a couple of times and she was already beginning to believe in his words. Now, she didn't doubt Xia Zhao's words. This person was really dangerous and it was difficult to escape his charms. She had to be careful around him from now on.
