My Alleged Husband

Chapter 1262: Chapter 1091: Never Forget Your Original Aspiration

Every path I have walked, I cannot forget, and how I made it through, I cannot forget even more. Those were times when I endured pain over and over again.

Xiao Wei and the others still don’t know what happened with their sister. He thinks he should be living happily now, but how could he imagine that in this short period, his sister experienced so many accidents, one after another, leading to her current state of madness, unable to discern right from wrong. Even eating has become the biggest challenge for her. If he knew, deep down he would surely feel the pain, because after all, she has been his sister, relying on each other for years.

He has always wanted to return home to accompany his sister, to see how she is doing now, but he has been held back by his wife. He cannot let his wife down; he knows the expectations she has for him.

In the past, he could live free and unfettered, but now he cannot do so, because he has his own family and responsibilities he must shoulder. He should change for his family. Being reckless like before, doing whatever he wishes, would only result in his loved ones becoming more distant from him. All he wants is for his loved ones to always stay by his side, which might be the most precious thing every person who has formed a family hopes to attain!

”You’re telling me now that it’s my fault that led mom to this state. Even if something really happened, can’t I step away for a moment? I admit I was negligent in this matter, I was careless. I didn’t expect mom to suddenly become this way — isn’t it also a kind of agony for me? I never thought it would come to this, having to constantly watch over her this way. If she were conscious, wouldn’t she find this incredibly painful herself? She’s never endured such suffering, and now she must silently bear it all — ultimately, it’s something we all brought upon her together.

Do you have your matters to attend to? I know you care about your career, about this family, but don’t I care too? She is my biological mother. I wish for her health above all else anywhere, anytime. I wish for her peace above all else. But some things are really beyond my control. Every decision I make leads only to unbearable agony, and nobody ever cares about what I think deep down. I repeatedly make sacrifices for what reason? To this day, you haven’t told your uncle, are you afraid he’ll come back and accuse you?

If sister knew you intended to chase grandma out of the house because of mom, do you think your uncle would agree? Would he still trust you deep down?

You actually know better than anyone that you need your uncle’s trust because he holds significant power. Even though he has left the underworld for many years, he still has connections with those people and his network is still strong. You repeatedly fear provoking him, not daring to drive your mom out of the house because you care for yourself. Yet now you attempt to push all the blame onto me. I won’t foolishly take all the blame for you.

Regarding my grandma, I think you should communicate with them properly, regardless of their purpose for returning to this house. Since they chose to come back, they should stay peacefully in this house, and not think about creating extra trouble, which would only harm everyone, not benefit anyone. Don’t completely hurt everyone, only to regret it later. No one will forgive him for every mistakes he made — everyone has their own matters to handle, and he should also bear the heavy consequences for everything he has done.

I’m not sure if my mother’s current state has anything to do with him, even if not directly, indirectly it certainly does. If it weren’t for their return, how could my mother be neglected? Over the years, how has my mom treated you, don’t you have any idea?

You’ve betrayed my mom’s trust, placing her in the most awkward position, leaving her no way to interact with you. It’s why she’s become more reclusive day by day.”

”Even if everything you said is supposedly all my fault, shouldn’t you reflect on whether there are problems deep down within you too? She’s your mother, but she’s just my wife. I have my job responsibilities too, should I care for her, understand her, should I accompany her, shouldn’t I neglect her instead? But what about you? You’re her son — the child she bore with painstaking effort. As her junior, you can’t even stay with your mother every day, so how can you expect me to do it?

Don’t you need to eat? Does grandpa not need to come back and enjoy some fortune? Doesn’t great-grandpa hope we could achieve something in our careers and make our lives prosperous and successful? Everyone has different expectations for each other — like my expectations for you, as long as you’re happy, even if you achieve nothing, I’m still happy and willing to give you all the wealth so you can live without worrying about food and clothing. Would you be willing to accept this?

You certainly wouldn’t accept it, because such a life is like a puppet’s life, only to be pointed at and criticized as someone without capability. You wouldn’t want such a life, let alone me — the pressure I bear isn’t less than yours. Why do you want me to endure the pain I’ve already suffered once again, to enjoy being criticized day after day? Am I someone useless, abandoned by parents?

Can we both consider each other’s perspective for a moment? If you feel truly depressed about it, we could rotate shifts, taking turns watching your mother, not allowing him to leave no matter what — even if the sky falls, he must stay by her side. If you can do that, then I’ll accept your opinion without complaint. I would stay here to watch her, but it’s impossible for me to watch over her every day while you handle your matters — wouldn’t my company and thousands of my employees go without food, or wouldn’t my company need to operate? Can all my money magically fall from the sky into my pockets?”

I remember everything I ever did, every choice I made, every path I took. Who else can remember the wounds they’ve endured?
