Love Worth Fighting For

270 Responsible

“I have a big debt to Linda and Paul who at that time helped me take care of Anne and Christian when he was still in Anne’s womb, that’s why I gave Asher love as much as I love Suri and Christian. However, because at that time Christian was in Luxembourg I didn’t pay much attention to him. I, who trusted Luis so much, chose to focus on Asher and the choices I made at that time turned out to be hurting Christian. And I didn’t realize that , I really didn’t realize that I had made my first son lose the father figure in him.”

“Jack...”

“And I really didn’t realize that I had hurt him since he was little, Anne... I didn’t realize...”

Seeing Jack cry and lament the mistakes he had made decades ago made Anne immediately hug him tightly. Anne knew if Jack didn’t realize that he’d hurt Christian, he was saddened by what Jack had just said. Anne knew she also had a big hand in the matter, had she had the courage to take a stand by forbidding Luis from taking care of Christian in Luxembourg maybe little Christian wouldn’t have as much disappointment in them both as he does now.seeds of hatred Christian for Asher will also definitely never exist if the two of them are raised together.

“I’m sorry Anne, I’m sorry,” said Jack apologetically. “If I could turn back time, I would have done it. I’ll fix all the mistakes I’ve made in the past so that something like this never happens.”

“Jack...”

Erick, who had initially braced himself to be able to deal with the mistress and master, finally got carried away with feelings. Being one of the living witnesses of Jack and Anne’s struggle made Erick know how much they both love their children, that’s why at this time Erick was sad when he heard the words of the master who wanted to correct all his mistakes in the past. As a father, Erick could understand how devastated his master was right now.

When Erick was trying to brace himself, Nicholas suddenly touched his shoulder who appeared from the side door. Unbeknownst to Erick, Nicholas had apparently overheard their conversation.

“Let’s go, leave Mr and Mrs,” Nicholas whispered.

.....

Erick clenched his fists, even though he knew he couldn’t do anything, but Erick still wanted to stay by Jack’s side to strengthen him.

“There’s nothing we can do here, Erick,” Nicholas said again. “Watch yourself, your presence will only make the atmosphere in this room worse.”

If only Nicholas had spoken when everything was fine, Erick might have hit his coworker’s face by now, but because at this moment everything was so chaotic, as a result, Erick could only hold back his emotions that were already in his head because of Nicholas’ words.

Nicholas, who didn’t realize that his words hurt his co-workers still looked calm, he didn’t feel guilty at all. Because Erick was furious that he didn’t leave the living room, which was filled with tears, Nicholas then grabbed Erick’s hand and took him out of the house.

And it wasn’t just Suri and Nicholas who had overheard Jack, Anne and Erick’s conversation. From behind the basement stairs at this time Asher was sitting limply on one of the bottom steps, his knees felt so weak after hearing the uncle’s words. Asher did not think that the happiness he had received from his adoptive parents had actually hurt Christian, he did not know that Christian was jealous of him for getting abundant love in the Clarke family.

“No wonder you’ve always referred to me as the person who has usurped your main position in this family.” Asher gripped his left chest tightly. “If I had a choice, I would prefer to live with my two biological parents, Christ. I prefer to live with them, feeling the full affection and love of the two human children who have created me into this world.”

Asher bowed his head deeply with his eyes tightly closed, his intention to convey his plan to his adoptive father suddenly vanished. Asher doesn’t have the courage to ask Jack’s approval to marry Suri, his adopted sister who has been the only resident in his heart since the first time he knew what love was. For Asher, Suri is not just a sister figure. Suri’s position in him is much bigger than that, even though Asher has been trying to bury his unrighteous feelings in Suri deeply, but today after he saw how much Suri tried to protect Areez from everyone’s tantrum, suddenly a feeling that Asher had buried deep out. His sense of competition with Areez for Suri emerged so strongly. However, after he heard his adoptive father’s words all the courage he had accumulated for hours disappeared.

Asher suddenly did not have the courage to ask his adoptive family for permission to marry his first love, because he felt that the situation in the house was not so conducive, Asher then decided to leave. He wanted to relieve the tightness that plagued him by enjoying alcohol at one of his favorite bars.

Suri who was still hiding behind the wall accidentally saw Asher get into his car which was in the front yard, realizing that at this time there was no one watching Areez, Suri’s eyes sparkled. Using both hands, Suri wiped her face which was wet with tears in a hurry. “I have to be careful,” said Suri quietly. “Areez is innocent, he can’t take this kind of punishment from them. I’m the only one who should be blamed.”

After mentally preparing, Suri decided to return to her room to prepare everything. Although she had never been into the interrogation room in the basement, Suri was sure that the room was filled with so many horrible and disgusting animals. That’s why Suri wanted to prepare everything carefully in her room, even though she knew that her actions were so risky, but Suri’s determination was made up. She doesn’t want to hide behind other people’s backs anymore, Suri wants to face all the punishments from her btother and her parents bravely. Suri did not want to involve Areez in this matter.

With trembling hands, Suri put a tool for breaking locks into her pocket, growing up with Asher made Suri know that in the basement there were large chains that were usually used to chain people who were being interrogated. That’s why Suri stole the tool from the safe in Asher’s room.

“Solve the problem you have created, Suri. You are an adult, you must be responsible for all the mess you have made.”
