Chapter 593 - Past And Tears (3)

Hearing that statement from a third party, the middle-aged mother immediately snapped. "What does a stranger like you know about my family!? Did you come here to get a share of Ali's wealth? Or perhaps, you were the prostitute who framed him in the past?"

"My guess is correct. Ma'am, your words now mean nothing to me. Look me in the eyes. Tell me what you saw? Slowly but surely, you enter into a peaceful mood and sit back relaxed. You will then answer all my questions with absolute truth from the bottom of your heart." Elena's friendly expression instantly disappeared from her face. She looked at the middle-aged mother and began to emit a calming, hypnotic aura.

Strange energy seeped into the middle-aged mother's body. She instantly became calm and peaceful.

"Let's start at the very beginning. Tell me, why did you treat your only son like you didn't care in the past? Do you like beating him? Why weren't you there when he needed you? What are your reasons for treating your child like he is a burden?" Elena nodded a little to see this middle-aged mother had entered a hypnotic trance state.

"That's not to say we don't care. We believe that a child will be mentally strong without being pampered. He can play outside to adapt. The economy was tough at the time. We couldn't do much for him." The middle-aged mother replied in a neutral tone.

"Then why didn't you care when he got caught up in the bullying? You only act when the case gets big. Didn't you realize that what your stupid family did was mentally destroying your child? You often scolded him, blamed him, beat him, and you still asked him to do things for you." Elena questioned the one that confused her as well. She did not understand why a parent would be willing to do such a thing.

"Hmm, doesn't that make him a successful and rich person? He is a great and strong child, I know that. He never complains no matter what happens to him. We raise our son with good care. Provide food, shelter, send him to school, and live with a family. What's lacking?" The middle-aged mother replied in a neutral tone.

"Hm, I see... Is it possible for you to see your child as an investment in the future? You and your husband decided to have children, took care of him into adulthood, and you felt proud when he finally succeeded? Even though you previously treated him like a burden in life?

He is successful not because of your support, but you feel you have significantly contributed? It's so funny how you treat your child like an investment tool for the future when you're old. But, yeah, you're lucky because Ali is a great person from the ground up, and your parenting method is really, really bad." Elena shook her head with a sigh.

"Then why did you sell all the assets left by him? Don't they have value in your eyes? Apart from his company, why did you sell all the contents of your son's dream house?" Elena raised the same topic because she wanted to know the truth.

The middle-aged mother thought for a moment before she answered. "For some unknown reason, we felt strange discomfort every day after his departure. It was as if the house had become haunted. We then sold everything to someone else at a reasonable price because supernatural experts said so. It was to avoid calamities."

"Oh dear me... I think it's a scam to sell your dream house for a low price. Never mind, one last thing, do you still see Ali as a family?" Elena asked one last question. She was already able to draw conclusions from all the conversations earlier.

"Ali is dead and will never come back. He may have had a pretty tough life, but I'm sure he's happy in the afterlife now." The middle-aged mother once again replied in a neutral tone.

'Sister Elena, let's leave... I, I-' Elysia couldn't finish her sentence as she sobbed. Whatever the reason, it was wrong for parents to raise their offspring as an investment in old age, especially without sufficient love and care.

It was bitter, but she was able to predict it. She just didn't dare to believe it. However, hearing it from her old self's mother was really heart-wrenching.

Ali's death two years ago had gone viral in local media because he died for no reason on April 1. His family had thought that he was just making a joke by sleeping all day in his room. Yet, they finally realized they were utterly wrong in the afternoon. That day, his funeral was attended by only a few people, namely his family.

No one took the obituary seriously, but all that changed as the days passed. Many people came to offer their condolences the next day.

"Very well, you are a bad mother, and I don't think your husband is that much different either. With a snap of my finger, you will return to consciousness. You will feel that you no longer have problems or burdens. You will just live your simple and peaceful life full of happiness as usual." Elena heaved a subtle sigh and snapped her fingers.

*Snap*

"Uh-huh?" The middle-aged mother gasped slightly and felt a bit confused.

"Alright, ma'am, thanks for accompanying us for a small talk. However, now is our time to go." Elena rose from her seat.

"Ah, you're already leaving? Why don't you sit down and talk with me a little longer? Or, let's have lunch with us." The middle-aged mother felt a little reluctant to let these top supermodels go so soon. She hadn't even asked for a photo yet.

"I'm afraid I'll have to turn down your offer. However, I hope you can spare some of your time to pay a visit to your son's grave for pilgrimage or to send a prayer to him." Elena raised her hand in farewell and walked away.

Sylvia immediately carried Vanessa and followed her friend.

"Why did she suddenly ask me to do that? Am I too busy with my life right now? When was the last time I visited his grave, huh?" The middle-aged mother scratched her head. She became somewhat senile as she was no longer burdened by anything.

Even so, she seemed to want to go on a pilgrimage to her son's grave soon.

Elena and Sylvia walked away from the elite residential area without wearing their face covers anymore. They did catch the attention of a few people who happened to be there, but the two of them just didn't care.

Right after they passed the gate, three blue taxis happened to be parked across the street.

"Taxi." Elena raised her hand.

"Oh hory shet, stunning hot foreign beauties. It's a good thing now it is my turn to get passengers. Goodbye, my friend. Today is a good day for me." One of the three taxi drivers was overjoyed and got into his car.

"Damn, lucky bastard."

"Yeah, hurry up and buy me a donut when you get back."

The other two taxi drivers were envious, but they just let their friend go.

The lucky taxi driver drove his car across the street and opened the door for the two beautiful girls. "Please come in. I will take you wherever you want to go. I also have a tour package around Bandung all day."

"Hm, I just want you to take us to the best restaurant in town." Elena just nodded slightly and got into the car. Sylvia also came in without asking.

"Aiyo!" The taxi driver saluted before getting into the car, leaving the vicinity.

The taxi driver then asked about the variety of the best safe restaurants they would go to. Still, Elena simply asked for the best according to the recommendations.

"Sylvi, I'm going to go pensive for a while. Please take care of me, okay?" Elena asked Sylvia.

"Mm, I'll take care of you with Vann, Ely." Sylvia just nodded in agreement. She could sense something strange from Elysia, but she couldn't pinpoint what it was.

Elena went straight into the Soul Realm and hugged Elysia. At that moment, Elysia burst into tears but didn't make any sound, only crying in silence.

"Shh, it's okay, it's okay. At least, your parents will live the life they want to have. They will spend the rest of their lives in happiness, without worrying or burdening with anything else. You are a great child. " Elena ran her hand through Elysia's hair to comfort the sad heart.

After some time, Elysia felt a little calm after hearing so many comforting words from Elena. However, she remained nestled in that warm embrace while burying her face in those heavenly melons.

"Oya, did I give you comfort? Hum, where did my shy Ely go? She is now burying her face in my breasts, but she's not blushing?" Elena teased Elysia a little.

"Hng." Elysia didn't answer, but she wrapped her arms around Elena's waist.

"Fufu, I have a spoiled Ely right now. It's a good thing if you occasionally act like a spoiled little sister to me." Elena smiled gently and continued to stroke Elysia's long hair.

"Thank you." Elysia spoke in a whisper-like voice.

"Anything for you, Ely. If it's like this, it looks like we need to use another name." Elena looked up slightly in brief reflection.

"Mm, we can't use Avery as our surname anymore. I don't expect to come back. There's no place for me to return among them." Elysia pondered about their current situation briefly and heaved a subtle sigh.

"You have a place to return to, Ely. This is our home, our nest, and our paradise. We will create a perfect realm and name it Elysian Realm. Our place to return to after our adventures wherever it may be." Elena raised Elysia's head to look into the latter's eyes. She gave a radiant smile with a gentle expression.

"En." Elysia just nodded in complete agreement.

"Very well, looks like we've arrived. Please return to your body, and I will accompany you here. Sylvi and Vann will accompany you outside. Ah, I'm sure our Patron Goddess is feeling very curious about what just happened too. Hum, I need to play some word games to explain everything without telling the whole thing." Elena patted Elysia's back.

"Um, all right." Elysia just obeyed and separated herself from the super comfortable, warm embrace.

However, her spirit fell back into that embrace because her consciousness returned to her body.

"Oops." Elena caught Elysia and helped the helpless spirit lie on the bed in a proper sleeping position.. After that, she asked Elysia's help to invite Rhea into the Soul Realm.
