Searching For You

Chapter 190

Yu Sha looked straight at the sobbing woman, her eyes flickers a complicated feeling. How she was brought up has nothing to do with her own compa.s.sion. There are those who are oblivious to the suffering of the world, but there are those who are trying to make a difference using the resources and platform they have. Yu Sha is the latter. She grew up loved and spoiled, but she always grew up with a sense of justice, can gauge between right and wrong. She has always stood up for the weak and preach for those who looked down on others.

At a young age, she has volunteered to be mentors at charity organizations trying to make a difference. Her parents always raised her with pa.s.sions and belief that she"ll one day grew up to make a difference in one way or another.

After some internal battle, she opened her mouth and spoke, "It is exactly of this light that I want to give others a piece of this light. If you trust me, I"ll always have your back and show you how wonderful the light can be."

The woman looked at Yu Sha lost for words. She remembered her mother grew up having been in the same shoes as she was. The neighbors had done nothing when her father went on a rampage while her mother begs and screamed for help. She has always thought that was how the world function. The neighbors were always afraid to meddle in someone else affairs when they can hear her mother and her scream for help. Eventually, her mother pa.s.sed away in one of those abuse. In desperate to find a safe heaven, she met her husband, whom at that time, showered her with love and affections. She thought, she had finally found happiness and broke the cycle of abuse. But her happiness soon became a nightmare and the cycle of abuse repeated.

She has no one to rely on. Her husband was an alcoholic. She has to provide for him, her children and herself. But the last rampage was so bad, not only he hit her and her son, but he took all their identifications, money and everything she earned. He even beat her up so bad, she was bruised, unable to go work and then he took off with the money she earned only to return when he ran out of money.

The recent attack was so bad, it led her to be bedridden and off work. There was no food left. Her husband took off with her hard earned money and her son probably went to find scratches at her workplace. The last time she tried escaping with her children, he also threatened to take her children away which makes her fear and she keeps staying with him. For those who never knew the light, it takes courage beyond imaginable to leave but for her who lived in the cycled of abuse, the thought of leaving was almost existence in her mind, making leaving hard.

Now even a total stranger who wanted to help her sounds suspicious.

The woman looked at Yu Sha"s determined eyes before she finally conceded. She dropped to the floor, sobbing her life away. She, who had always been in the dark never thought that one day she would be liberated from the cycle she saw her mom lived and now herself lived through. She never thought that a total stranger would care enough to break into her sh.e.l.l. She cried tears of suffering, tears of past lives pain and then tears of liberation. After letting suffering out, she spoke in a soft low tone, "I"m willing to change for my children"s future."


The bodyguard who witnessed the whole thing stood at the door trying to piece what happened prior to his arrival. He was calmed and composed but could vaguely pieced what had happened.

Yu Sha realized that she convinced the mother of the boy to leave with her. She reached for her phone to contact Keng and the bodyguard only to sense that someone was by the door. When she turned around, she saw the bodyguard standing in the living room in front of the door. She then asked the bodyguard to help her escort the family of three away for thorough check up at the hospital to which he can only complied.

After learning that he was to head to the hospital, Keng called Long Kue to relay message of their day and the delay in delivering Yu Sha back. When he told Long Kue they"re heading to the hospital, Long kue was alarmed but when Keng told them what had happened, Long Kue calmed down.

Yu Sha who was waiting in the hospital, took the phone from Long Kue and reported. "Where is your boss?"

Long Kue was taken aback at the sudden change of voice but quickly came to his senses. "He"s right here."

"Put the phone on speaker." Yu Sha ordered icily. She was not in the mood to talk to anyone at this moment even the prince. He was the source of her irritation and now that she"s feeling even more irritated, not meeting up with him was probably a good decision.

Long Kue put the phone on speaker and replied, "Done."

"Tell your boss I can"t meet on time tonight. I have more pressing matters." She spoke sounding irritated.

Long Kue turned to look at Hue Chi. He had the phone on speaker but wasn"t sure what to react. No one has ever rejected the Prince so decisively.

After she spoke the line ended. Sweats drips down Long Kue"s forehead. He had never seen anyone stood up against his Prince so arrogantly. He was not sure what to do but only force on a smile. "Um… Prince, let"s go have dinner without her. At this point, we"ll not have dinner on time unless you want to continue to wait?"

Prince Hue remained silent but soon order, "Have Tsong file a thorough investigation and send in resources for the family." Tsong was the bodyguard that he a.s.signed to follow Yu Sha.

When Tsong heard the order from Long Kue, he understood. No matter what he has to deliver Yu Sha back at Ether hotel. In the meantime, he"ll contact the Women Shelter and Social Services to come take over. That would be the only way to put Yu Sha at ease so she would be willing to leave for the night.
