Chapter 796: The Torture of Boundless Yearning
“If I had known of your existence earlier, you wouldn’t have suffered so much. You could have received the best education and best love in the world, and become the most elegant and beautiful princess.” Nico’s face was full of remorse. “If I had found you earlier, you wouldn’t have experienced such a terrible family like the Li Family. I would have given you the best and warmest home. My Beinian, Daddy has let you down.”
Li Beinian was touched by his intentions.
The look on Nico’s face saddened Will greatly. He looked at Li Beinian with an expression full of regret and said, “Ever since he found out about your existence, Nico has never stopped looking for you. All these years, we’ve been looking for you, but many times, we’ve only received bad or tragic news and it devastated Nico. Miss Beinian, Nico is a good father, and if Miss Bei were still around, he would have been a good husband.”
Alas, it was too late.
Nico had only learnt the tragic news of Bei Xiaonian’s death long after it happened.
And that sort of news was enough to break the strong man.
Nico was unable to recover from that setback for a long time. After he came to Xia Nation to pay his respects, he did not dare to step into the country again.
Xia Nation was Bei Xiaonian’s home.
He was afraid that he would think of her the moment he entered.
The boundless yearning was torturous.
“I believe you,” Li Beinian whispered. “But I don’t think he will be a good father. He’s right. I used to hate him very much, not so long ago.”
Li Beinian’s words were like a knife that pierced Nico’s heart.
He was overwhelmed by an indescribable pain.
Nico looked at her, hurt and defeated. He opened his mouth, but no words came out.
“I often dream.” Li Beinian looked at him and pursed her lips. “I dreamt that you made a will and left your estate to me.”
Nico paused when he heard this, as if surprised.
She subconsciously turned to look at Will, who also looked taken aback.
“However, such great wealth is not a good thing for me.” Li Beinian slowly walked towards Mu Xichen and stood next to him. “The will caused your own death, because it could take effect only if you died.”
Nico looked at her with a serious expression.
“Because of this will, the person coveting the assets made me his target.” Li Beinian said with the faintest hint of a smile. She looked at Nico and then at Will meaningfully. “But there is someone in my life.”
Of course, she was referring to Mu Xichen.
“Because of Ah Chen’s existence, it was very difficult for them to harm me. So, Ah Chen became their target.” Li Beinian lowered her eyes and continued, “He was wronged, framed, and eventually killed. Then they came for me.”
Nico held his breath as he listened, his expression became more solemn.
“I was kidnapped and they cut off my tongue. When I woke up, I was mute. I couldn’t speak. I was hypnotized and made to forget everything that was important, including my husband and all my beautiful memories. I was pregnant with twins. Eventually I was brought to an old, abandoned factory and left to die.”
Li Beinian subconsciously touched her belly. “My water broke and I bled all over the ground, but no one came to save me. My babies struggled in my womb, trying to come into this world.”
