701 Despair

Destiny didn\'t plan on giving up so easily. She had to see through this to the end. So, she followed them to the hospital. It was only after she got there did she learn about who protected Zhao Huan in the dark.

A man with an oppressive aura came with a frosty expression. At his sight, even those stiff looking, organized people started trembling.

"What happened?" Xin Zimen\'s voice was low as he questioned his subordinates.

"It\'s just a conjecture but it seems someone messed with the brakes," said one of those people.

The temperature dropped around them as Xin Zimen\'s voice got lower, "Who did it?"

"We don\'t know."

"Then what the hell are you doing here?!! My wife left only one job for you all! Protecting Sister Huan and you can\'t even do that?!" Xin Zimen was furious just as much as he was anxious.

Everyone kneeled before him as they bowed their heads, "Sir, we had been following Madam Huan for years. Nothing of this sort ever happened. So..."

"So you all got lazy? Or is it that you all got rusty after all these years?" Xin Zimen was breathing heavily. "Get lost! Don\'t let me see your face until you have a clear answer for everything!"

None of them even delayed as they promptly rushed out. They truly were given amnesty. Who wasn\'t familiar with Xin Zimen\'s temper?

In fact, surprisingly even Destiny was familiar with his temper. And knowing that he was behind saving Zhao Huan, she felt scared. She had covered her tracks well but she still didn\'t feel at ease. From what she gathered, wasn\'t the two Xin brothers at odds? Why would Xin Zimen be so detailed about protecting Zhao Huan? This matter was truly baffling to her.

It didn\'t take long for Xin Zemin to come as well. He looked at his brother with a complicated gaze before he asked, "You weren\'t behind this, right?"

Zimen\'s temper blew up but he held himself back since it was a hospital, "If I want someone dead, that\'d be you! Why would I try to kill my innocent sister-in-law?" He knew his elder brother was just talking nonsense because he was worried. He could literally see his fear all over his face no matter how much he tried to hide it.

Seeing how he was shaking from head to toe, Zimen patted his shoulder saying, "Relax. She\'ll be fine."

Xin Zemin lifted his head and Zimen saw the moisture in his eyes. "The doctors don\'t think so. They said there is so much water in her lungs and..."

For the first time in years, Zimen felt the urge to hug his elder brother but he stopped in time as he said, "Nothing will happen to her."

Xin Zemin contemplated his words before saying, "Why were you keeping an eye on my wife?" Although he knew that if he wasn\'t doing it, Zhao Huan might have not even be breathing right now. But he still needed an answer from his brother.

Xin Zemin furrowed his brows at his younger brother, "What? Wen Ai is dead! How can she give orders to anyone?"

Zimen shrugged his shoulders saying, "But she did. Before dying she had already made plans. Maybe she could really see the future."

Xin Zemin\'s thoughts grew more complicated but he didn\'t question his brother anymore. Zimen himself didn\'t know why Wen Ai would leave such orders for her own people. Clearly Zhao Huan had nothing to do with Wen Ai and yet she wanted to protect her against everything. The only plausible reason in his mind was that till the very last breath, Wen Ai felt guilty towards Zhao Huan for taking her limelight on her wedding day.

He got up and said, "Since you\'re here. I\'m leaving."

Xin Zemin didn\'t stop him. It\'s not like his brother ever listened to him. So, he was left alone to wait outside the operating room. It was a brief meeting they had in years and yet it was so short.

Destiny could see his desolate expression. He looked lost and completely like a weak person.

Seeing his expression Destiny felt her heart stirring. Did she do something wrong? Why did she suddenly feel so bad?

She suddenly had an impulsive thought; after learning about Carina Novell\'s death, did he feel such despair for her as well? Or he didn\'t even care at all?

With this impulsive call, she dialed his number once again after months.

Xin Zemin took the call with a dispirited look. There was silence on the other side before Destiny spoke softly, "Did you even feel a slight despair learning about Carina Novell\'s death? Or was she really just a plaything? A mistake you wouldn\'t even bother remembering?"

Xin Zemin was annoyed as he said, "I think you\'ve dialed the wrong number."

Destiny chuckled darkly, "Wrong number? Now you don\'t even wanna acknowledge Carina Novell as a mistake?"

"Who are you?" he questioned impatiently. "And whatever happened between me and Carina has nothing to do with you."

"Why not? Carina Novell was mother!" she shouted angrily. "How can it not matter to me when you abandoned her like this?"

Xin Zemin\'s voice softened up as he said, "Kid, I\'m just learning now that Carina Novell is dead. I get it that you\'ve upset but why are you dragging me into this? I have nothing to do with Carina Novell."

"I just said I\'m Carina Novell\'s daughter. Does that not matter anything to you?" she asked incredulously.

"Why would it matter to me?" retorted Xin Zemin.

"It\'s truly a pity that she had been loyal to you for years and you can\'t even recall anything. I really must be just a mistake to you. I always imagined why would my father abandon me but only now I know, you never really cared about me. You neither cared about my mother nor about me." She was breathing heavily, "Say, does your wife know what kind of person you are? HA! If she knew she must not have taken the drastic measures to kill me and my mother. Because you don\'t even care about us."

Xin Zimen finally lost his patience when his wife was brought up, "Kid, I don\'t know what lies you\'ve been fed but don\'t even try to sully my wife\'s name. Not ever!" He heaved a long sigh, "Get one thing very clear, I had no relation with Carina Novell. Yes, once she did offer to become the surrogate for my family but that\'s it!"
