Chapter 21
Chapter 21 — After Divorce, I Am a Real Angel
When I arrived, it was nine o'clock in the evening. The hospital is very quiet, only the nurse's station is lit in the hallway. I walked to the door of the hospital room, but before I could enter, I heard a cough from inside. Very old, very weak. I took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
“Come in.” It was Mr. Pho's voice, breathless but still dignified.
I pushed the door open and entered. The hospital room is very large, decorated like a luxury suite. Mr. Fu leaned back against the hospital bed, wearing glasses, looking at documents. Compared to when I got married three years ago, he has aged a lot, his hair is white, his face is full of wrinkles, but his eyes are still sharp like an eagle. Seeing me, he was a little surprised, then smiled.
“Already here?” He took off his glasses, pointed to the chair next to the bed, "Sit down."
I stood still without moving.
“Mr. Fu, I have something to ask you.”
The old man sighed and put the documents aside.
"I knew you would come. Little Kinh Nghien, after all, he couldn't hide it."
“He can't hide it.” I looked at him, "Mr. Fu, I want to know what happened that year. Who am I, who are my parents, why did I grow up in the To family?"
The old man looked at me, his eyes were complicated, filled with guilt, sadness, and helplessness.
“You look… a lot like your grandmother.” He suddenly said.
I was stunned.
“Your grandmother is the woman I love the most in my life.” Old man Fu looked out the window, immersed in memories, "But her health was not good, and after giving birth to your father, he passed away. Your father... was the son I loved the most, smart, talented, the heir I personally appointed. But he was unlucky, not long after getting married, he had a traffic accident, and his mother died on the spot."
My heart sank.
"At that time, my mother was 8 months pregnant. The doctor tried his best to save me, but my mother couldn't survive because of too much bleeding." Old man Pho's voice was choked up, "When you were born, you weighed less than two kilograms and had to stay in an incubator for two months. The doctor said you might not survive, but I definitely didn't believe it. I spent a lot of money to hire the best doctor and used the best medicine. It was very difficult to get you back from the demon gate."
I clenched my fists, my nails digging deep into my skin.
“And then what?”
“After that, I kept you with me and took care of you myself.” Old man Pho said, "When you were young, you were often sick, and every few days you would end up in the hospital. I was afraid, really afraid, afraid that you would be like your parents and suddenly leave me. So I protected you very carefully, never letting you appear in public. Even within the Pho family, not many people knew of your existence."
“So why…”
“Why were you kidnapped?” Old man Fu smiled bitterly, "It was my negligence. Not long after you were born, your health was too weak so you had to be transferred to a hospital in a neighboring city for treatment. Unexpectedly, that hospital... that hospital, had a fire. During the chaos, you were carried away."
He closed his eyes, two old tears rolling down.
"I've been looking for you for 22 years, To Nghien. Over the past 22 years, I've never given up. Only later did I find out you were staying at the To family, and I also knew you weren't living well, but I couldn't accept you." . Because of that criminal gang Haven't fallen into the trap yet, I'm afraid the dogs will break out of the hedge and harm you. I can only silently protect you, watch you grow up, watch you marry Kinh Nghien..."
“Watching you marry an impostor?” I interrupted him, my voice trembling, “Mr. Fu, don't you think it's cruel? He clearly knew that Pho Kinh Nghien was not his biological niece, clearly knew that she was his biological niece, yet he watched helplessly as we got married, watched as she called her enemies parents, watched as she was insulted by everyone as a fake genius. This is
