169 A Chance

Reimonna had a lot of time to think during this holiday.

She had been confused and depressed for quite a long time, but now, everything seemed clear.

Out of all the mess the Shengs had been for her, one thing stood out clearly: Pihua had her to give him the strength to go on. She had both her husband and her son.

But Kai had no one.

Sure, he had her, his mother but that is completely different from having a wife.

Someone to love him, be his support and be the one that he needed while he worked his way up and around the Shengs.

Why had she not seen this before?

Reimonna looked away for a while, knowing the answer full well in her heart.

Because she was weak.

She wanted more for her son.

He deserved more.

Reimonna remembered the time when she raised him on her own after running away from the Shengs. Times had been hard, but she had managed to do so.
