Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 605 Regrets

After Hyson brought all these ladies back to the hotel, he was super tired. He didn't want to accompany them to their room as well, so he let the people following him do this task. After all, he didn't even know the room numbers of all these ladies.

He sat down in the lobby to relax but suddenly stood up and took the elevator to the twenty-third floor to look for the restaurant. He didn't even have a good meal tonight. He really wasted his night. He ordered himself a lavish meal and even asked for wine.

Alone, he sat there and ate comfortably while sipping on wine. Well, it seemed more like he was gulping down the wine. His mind was really in turmoil. So, he picked up his phone and called the one person who wouldn't question him.

"Didn't you say your shooting will end early today?" he heard the question as soon as the call connected.

"It ended a long time ago," he told her. "I went to KTV..." and then he continued to tell every single detail to her.

As he chugged down another goblet of wine, he heard her voice, "Drink moderately. If you got drunk, you won't find anyone to spoil you."

Hyson chuckled at Raelle's words, "But I just feel like drinking."

Even when he said that she didn't ask him why he was feeling like drinking even when she knew he wasn't that fond of drinking. He wasn't even the kind of a person who'd indulge in alcohol once he became sad. So, it was actually rare for Hyson to drink like he was doing tonight.

"Ellie..."

"Yes?"

"There has been something on my mind I wanted to say to you."

"Are you reading to share it?"

"No," he refused immediately. "If I shared it what if it..." 'became true.' He kept the last two words to himself. Shaking his head, he said, "Ellie, you take care of yourself."

"Okay," she agreed without any hesitation. "Today, I had a question but no one answered it for me. How about you help me?"

"Oh?" He patted his chest. "You can ask me anything. I'm always here."

"Which one do you think is better, breaking a promise or breaking a person?" she asked him in all seriousness.

Hyson's lips tugged up slightly when he heard her question. Of course, he'd expected only such questions from her. "Isn't it the same, Ellie?" he looked at the lights outside and went on, "You break a promise and that's like breaking someone's trust in you. And if you break that trust, doesn't that also break that person?"

Raelle listened to him attentively and agreed with his words. "Then what if it's a promise to a dead person? Would you still keep it so that the dead has no regrets?"

"Dead already has no regrets, my dear best friend," he said. "Dead are already gone. Whatever you do can't help them in any way or affect them in any way. Only living people have regrets and I don't need to tell you that. You already know that."

"I do," she replied. "Maybe I just wanted to hear it out loud."

"Did something happen?" he asked her.

"Not really," was her answer but she still gave him the details of the day. They couldn't talk like this earlier when he called. She was surrounded by everyone and she wouldn't share such a thing with him between people.

Hyson suddenly chuckled, "Do you have to put Opa in a difficult position?"

"I think he is used to it by now," stated Raelle.

Hyson could only nod, "True. How could he not be used to it? Your questions had been following him for years. Sometimes I really feel bad for him."

"Why don't you ever feel bad for me?" she asked. "You didn't even feel bad for me when we met for the first time."

"You don't need that," he replied. "Our family's Ellie never needed anyone's pity."

"Well, that's true," she agreed.

"But I wonder why you suddenly brought this up?" asked Hyson curiously.

"Opa was very happy today," she told him. "The kind of happiness that I have never seen before. And I know it's because he could meet Xiang Weimin and Xiang Wai. He looked a lot energetic as well. There was that..."

"Will to live, radiating from him." Hyson completed her sentence for her.

"Yes," she answered. "If I knew these two would have such an effect on his health, I'd have long kidnapped them over to make my Opa happy."

Hyson laughed at that, "But that wouldn't have made Opa happy." He took a pause and added, "So, now you're wondering if bringing his son to him might add some more light into his life?"

"Do you think it will?" she asked. "Because I certainly know that he still misses his son. After all, that's his one and only son." She thought about something and added, "I never wanted him to give up anything for my sake. How can I ask him to give up on his son when I know what he means to Opa?"

"But you were never the one who forced him to give up," Hyson pointed out.

"Yes, I wasn't," she said. "I just... want to do something to make him happier."

Hyson tsked at that, "Do people know that the mighty President Raelle has such moments where she is at a loss?" He shook his head, "Ellie, you have already done more than enough just to make Opa happy. Stop it now."

"If my effort can help him in living a day longer, I don't mind."

"Ah! You're stubborn," commented Hyson.

"I just heard once again from Opa that it's in our blood," replied Raelle. She looked at the time and said, "You should stop drinking now. Go back to your room and sleep it off. Whatever is on your mind, just stop overthinking it. Troubles only get bigger once we take them way too seriously."

"I'll keep that in mind."

"Now, scram!"

Hyson laughed out loud and looked at the disconnected call.
