Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 888: Possibilities

Raelle was momentarily lost. She looked at Tang Hebe and said, "I don't have any memory of saving someone named Chi Xirui."         

    

"Oh, it's possible you didn't know her name but just saved a nameless person in passing." She took a pause and added, "Or maybe you just don't remember it right now since it's been five years or so."     

"Ms. Tang, you're the only one with memory gaps here, my memory is impeccable," was Raelle's reply. "So, I can assure you I'm not forgetting anything." Her eyes wandered around the ward aimlessly as she continued, "Also, what kind of a person do you think I am? Do I look like a kindhearted angel who does good deeds and forgets about them? I have always walked in a straight line in my life. I don't needlessly become nosy in other people's lives. So, to say that I saved someone just because I was feeling like it is certainly wrong. I don't do that kind of thing."     

Tang Hebe chewed the inside of her bottom lip as she contemplated before firmly saying, "But she did tell me, you saved her and Justin."     

"If I saved her, where is she? Didn't she die in the end?"     

Tang Hebe stared at Raelle's blank expression that made her look like she had no sympathy for human life. She thought those words sounded cold but for some reason, she didn't think Raelle was being rude or offensive. It was like she was just stating another fact in her usual tone.     

Thinking about something, she decided to share her thoughts, "Actually, I'm not sure about it but I'll share it with you since you're the smarter one here."     

"I already had no expectation for your intelligence," said Raelle.     

"You don't have to strike so hard at my heart," was Tang Hebe response before she took a deep breath. "When we first met, I was lost in my own problems and didn't pay attention at first. But later, I did notice small details. She was unusually vigilant at all times. She'd easily get scared by the loud noise. For instance, once we were in a cafe and someone dropped a glass. She stood up and immediately went into a fighting posture. Like she was ready to beat someone. I even laughed at her reaction and she also laughed it off. But thinking back, I feel like she was on a run. She didn't stay in one place for a long time."     

"She was like a refuge, running for her life?" asked Raelle.     

"I don't know," replied Tang Hebe.     

"Or maybe a criminal on the run," added Raelle.     

"No!" Tang Hebe strongly denied that. "She was such a good and kind person. She definitely wasn't a criminal."     

Raelle looked at her with her blank gaze but Tanng Hebe felt like her eyes were actually calling her an 'idiot'. She felt so embarrassed.     

"Do you think criminals run around with the tag on their head that they are criminals?" asked Raelle. "Most serial killers or psychopath killers are people just like you and me. No, they might seem even more normal than we do. Humans are creature of deception. How can you even fall for the mask someone put on? Are you that gullible? No wonder I can't seem to like you. Your level of IQ is definitely not pleasing."     

Tang Hebe gaped at her in disbelief. Did she have to speak so ruthlessly? And why did she feel like she was being despised right now? Couldn't she just care about someone's feelings before speaking? It hurts!     

"If I cared about others's feelings, I won't be Raelle Xiang," said Raelle and Tang Hebe realized she had spoken her thoughts out loud. "And do I look like I care that you're hurt?"     

"I don't care. I refuse to believe that Chi Xirui was a criminal!" Tang Hebe decided to put her feet down! She had to stand up for her belief. She couldn't go on like this and let Raelle lead her by the nose!     

"It's just a possibility," said Raelle. "And there are plenty of other possibilities as well. For instance, she got herself involved with people she shouldn't have crossed. She had something that someone wanted at any cost. The father of her child was from the underworld. She had personal enemies etc etc etc. There are plenty of other possibilities here as well. And until we find the real answer, all these possibilities have the possibility of being the possible answer!"     

Tang Hebe was left blinking in a daze. Even she felt like what she said was right. Damn it! She was again being led by the nose and she couldn't do anything about that! Argh! How hateful!     

"What are you gonna do about this?" asked Tang Hebe curiously.      

"Of course, I'm gonna look for the right answer," replied Raelle. "Since you don't have the answers I want. I'll just look for someone who has the answers. It doesn't matter to me how long it takes. I had always been a patient person. Very patient."     

Raelle didn't mind putting more effort into this matter now that it got more interested. At first, it was just knowing how Tang Hebe adopted a son. Now, it was more about Chi Xirui who claimed that Raelle saved her and her son. And since Raelle had no recollection of that, she had to find it out to figure out everything. She trusted her memory very much so she wasn't willing to let anyone question it.     

"You didn't find anything before," reminded Tang Hebe.     

"Because I wasn't trying hard enough," replied Raelle. "Besides, now I have a new lead to look for. Before, I was looking for Justin. Now, the matter involved his mother, Chi Xirui. I think it'll be easier to find her, no?"     

"Then I wish you best of luck," said Tang Hebe.          

    

"I don't need your best wishes."     

"I know," replied Tang Hebe. "But that doesn't stop me from offering my best wishes." She shrugged nonchalantly.
