Chapter 196: 91.1

As my dad opened the door to where my mother and I were staying, his face turned pale as I ran to her.

“Adele.”

His voice was so sweet as he called out to my mom.

It was almost terrifying to see.

My dad’s hands shook as usual. That alone was bound to be disturbing.

“Dad?”

My dad, who would normally look back whenever I called him, only looked at my mom without saying a word.For a while, it was as if he was checking if she was alive or not.

Only then did I feel that something was quite wrong.

“What’s wrong with my mom? Huh?”

Just in case, I went up to the bed and put my ear on my mom’s chest. Apart from the unusually slow heart rate, it was no different from usual.

“It’s nothing.”

Contrary to his words, I urged my dad once again when I saw my dad’s face darken.

“Not a big deal? Dad, your face tells me something different to what you’re saying…!”

“Bebe, go to Allen first. Cecilia, take the child out.”

Holding my mom’s arm tightly at his stern voice, I did not back down.

How do you protect your Mom? It’s been a long time.

“I don’t want to go.”

“You need to go.”

“I said no!”

Something must have happened to my mom, and Dad’s trying to hide it from me. I couldn’t have known that.

I shook my head more firmly than ever, but the more I did, the more my dad took my hand away from my mom.

“Listen to me.”

I couldn’t hold back my anger for a moment.

“I’m not going. I’m staying with my mom.”
“Bebe.”

“Why do you keep trying to get me away from my mom?”

“You might be shocked… so come on, let’s go.”

My dad was different from usual. He clearly drew the line as if he were someone else. It seemed that he would not bend his will no matter what.

“Why are you hiding so much? I’m also my mom’s guardian. It’s only the two of us, so my mom and I are each other’s guardians. So tell me, what is it?”

“…Just knowing it doesn’t change anything. It’s already happened, and there’s nothing we can do about it. If Adele goes down again, it won’t be good.”

“So… you’re saying this is my mom’s fault? Is that it?”

I asked him in spite of myself.

My hands trembled for a moment at the sight of my father acting as if he had given up.

“Why aren’t you answering…?”

“…”

“Can you really be wrong about my mom?”

“…I wouldn’t say it like that. I’m not going to send the person who’s believed in you and protected you in pain. So Bebe, let me deal with it.”

It was a strange feeling.

I had to believe my dad, but I was nervous because I knew that my dad, who was stronger than anyone else, would definitely protect my mom on my behalf.

Was it because of his droopy voice, which sounded different from usual? Maybe it’s the anxiety in his eyes.

I went to my mom’s side again.

“No… I don’t want to go. I’m not going.”

“Go. I don’t know what will happen when the priest arrives. This is for your own good, Bebe.”

I knew. I knew it too well.

My dad’s eyes looked worried. There was no way you could be ignorant towards people’s gazes, but I knew I couldn’t give up on my mom.

I felt like I would never see my mom if I went like this.

“No, I’m not going. I’m not going!”

But I wasn’t sure what was going to happen from now on. My dad shook his head from side to side and looked at Cecilia.

“My Lady, come with me.”

“No! It’s my mom! I’ll protect her!”

There was no way I could overcome the power of an adult. My dad finally pulled me off even though I said no.

For a moment, an unknown rage filled my body.

The fact that I could be wrong about my Mom and that I had to be away from her, who was my whole life, filled my head.

‘I’ll never let you go again.’

It was always my mom I missed. I won’t let go of her because my mom had always gone away like that.

Maybe it was because of those thoughts, but for a moment, I felt something rush through my body.

‘It’s hot.’
