Elara Shelby’s gaze slightly shifted as she said, "Tell , what is it?"
Jace Kingsley raised his eyes and looked at the deep night outside the window: "That year, they found out where my mother and I were, and sent over a dozen thugs to surround . That day, I happened to have a fever and was powerless to resist."
"They beat , beat to death, they gave no way out."
"I wanted to live, fought desperately for survival, but do you know how hard it was? So hard."
"Really so hard."
"I wanted to live, but they didn’t care if they had to die to stop from living; over a dozen people, sticks, knives, kept hitting ."
"It hurt, but I wasn’t afraid."
"I had to survive, I was still so young, just starting on the path of life."
"I couldn’t leave you, no matter how hard it was, I had to hold on."
"They hurt , and I hurt them back."
"I grabbed their knives, swung them at them, slashed them, I don’t know how I made it through."
"I felt the blood flowing, the strength in my body fading, but I still didn’t fall."
"I believed in myself, even if it was so hard, I believed I wouldn’t just die like that." "And at that mont, Ava appeared."
At this mont, a smile appeared on Jace’s face, light shone in his eyes, and his entire being was full of spirit.
"She was very slim, yet very tall, wearing a t-shirt and jeans, with short hair, looking like a boy to anyone."
"She saw being surrounded by over a dozen people, imdiately picked up a longboard and hit one of them on the head, standing in front of ."
"You know, back then she was so fierce, like a bully, glaring at those who attacked , without fear."
"She said she had already called the police, if they continued, they should wait to be dealt with by the cops."
"She was very confident because anyone who heard would be scared."
"But she didn’t know what kind of people those were who surrounded ."
"They wanted money, not life; her appearance only temporarily stopped their attack on , giving a slight breath."
"But it couldn’t stop them from taking my life."
"Very quickly, they attacked again, not even sparing her."
Jace recounted, smiling all over his face, but when talking about this, a cold light appeared in his eyes, an eerie cold light.
"They even hit her, without rcy."
"I wanted her to leave, to get away, not to be dragged down by , but at that mont I really needed help."
"I didn’t want her to leave, I wanted her to help ."
"Even if it was just to buy a little ti."
"But, I couldn’t say such words, at that mont I was too vulnerable, too vulnerable to say a word."
"And even before I could speak, they attacked."
Upon saying this, Jace lowered his head and laughed to himself: "Do you know? When she saw those people charging over, she was stunned."
"Very incredulous."
"She didn’t expect those people to be so reckless."
"At that mont, I thought she would run away, I was ready for her to escape, but unexpectedly she directly cursed and kicked down the person rushing over."
"She said loudly, since you’re not afraid, then don’t bla sis for being rude."
"Only then did I know she was a girl."
"A girl..."
Jace’s voice lowered, his gaze incomparably gentle, at this mont his entire being was suffused with a gentle aura, like snow wrapped in winter’s warm sun, having a temperature.
Elara Shelby’s face turned cold and solemn, she gripped Jace’s hand tightly, eyes filled with icy cold severity, and terrifying intent to kill.
That year, that day, her mory was especially clear.
Her Jace almost lost his life.
She would always rember that day, her Jace lying before her covered in blood, she didn’t even dare to take a step forward.
Heart trembled, hand unsteady.
Even though such a thing had happened more than ten years ago, upon recalling, it was vivid in her mind.
"So that’s how it was."
"At that ti you said nothing, mother knew nothing."
Jace raised his head, eyes full of smiling love: "Mother, I like her."
"Really like."
"Since that day, I rembered her in my heart, I swore I must have everything good in this world and give it all to her."
"She deserves it."
Elara Shelby gripped the hand in her palm tightly, her eyes trembling with emotion, which she suppressed forcefully.
She nodded: "Okay."
"If it’s soone Jace likes, mother likes too."
Jace smiled, but very quickly, that smile beca desolate.
He lowered his head, the whole person like a wilting flower, about to wither.
Elara Shelby frowned, softly: "What happened?"
"Is sothing wrong?"
"This ti, you’re drinking so much because of that girl?"
Jace nodded, voice weak: "I arranged everything, ca back to find her, to et her, I wanted to be with her, wanted to marry her."
"But, for so reason, she suddenly wants to distance herself from , as if a hand is forcibly pushing us apart, and I’m helpless."
Elara Shelby’s eyes slightly narrowed: "Mother will find a way for you."
"Mother will handle this."
"You shouldn’t think too much, nor feel down, anything my Jace wants, mother will give you."
"Now take care of yourself, don’t do this again."
Elara Shelby gently patted Jace’s hand, the implication very clear, she would handle this.
Jace shook his head, looking at Elara Shelby: "Mother, she’s different from others, I don’t want to force her, I want her to be with sincerely, I want her to be happy, joyful, and glad with ."
"I don’t want her to be sad, don’t want her to feel hurt."
Elara Shelby nodded: "Mother understands."
"Mother knows what to do, you just rest assured."
Jace didn’t speak further.
He looked at Elara Shelby for a long ti, then spoke: "Mother, don’t make things difficult for her."
