A Billion Dollar Exchange

73 The Pas

When Liling's parents got married, it took them seven years to conceive a child. At that time Mr Liang loved her so much so he was not bothered about their inablilty to produce children.

When Liling came, he was happy. They were both happy.

He loved them with everything he had, but the drastic turn began when Liling fell ill and needed a blood transfusion.

All Liling's mom did to prevent him from running the test was to no avail.

The more she tried to stop him, the more he wanted to know what she was hiding.

He never thought that when the test came out, he was not even related to his dearest daughter.

That day, to save her life, they had to get blood from the blood banks.

Her dad didn't want to believe the truth, he was rejecting the answers his brain was giving him.

A daughter he had loved for years?

He didn't even want to know the truth, he refused to ask questions.

But on that fateful night, he came back drunk and lashed out on her mom.

He demanded to know the truth, and when Liling's mom confessed that she did it because she thought the problem didn't come from her. Since they've been running tests on her and hadn't discovered anything wrong, she couldn't ask him to run a test on himself so she tried it once with another man and took in.

Mr Liang collapsed on a chair. The pain was too much that he began to cry. The both of them sat there crying.

Her mom continually apologised, but Mr Liang didn't even respond.

Though he didn't chase them away, he treated them with untold hatred.

Liling's mom endured it all without complaint. After all, she was at fault.

As the years past, she developed a heart disease which eventually led to her demise.

Mr Liang sat on the disorganized floor as tears fell from his eyes.

'She betrayed me, now she's gone.. '

He kept repeating those words to himself.

The truth was that he had loved his wife till the very end, the only problem was that he couldn't accept the fact that she had betrayed him and the daughter they had raised together wasn't his.

Anytime he remembered this fact, his heart bled. Even when he wanted to let the past go, anytime he set his eyes on this bastard daughter of an unknown father, his heart would harden again.

Now she was dead, and he had disowned his daughter. He thought he would feel better, but instead untold misery engulfed him.

He sat there weeping like a baby.

.....

When she reached home, she went straight to her parents room and started ransacking the whole room.

She opened every box, searched every bag and pushed down every furniture looking for what God knows what.

Deep down she didn't want to find anything out of the ordinary but like they say curiosity killed the cat.

Even though her heart was beating rapidly, she continued searching.

After a long search, she didn't find anything suspicious. She was a bit glad that her dad was just saying things.

She sighed and stood to leave the room, but her phone fell down from her trouser pockets; she bent to pick it and her eyes involuntarily looked under the bed.

That was the only place she hadn't searched.

Liling's fingers shook hesitatingly. She was contemplating on whether to leave, but her instincts kept telling her to know what was under the bed.

Finally she decided to yield to her heart, besides she had already searched everywhere, it was possible that nothing was there anyway.

Standing up, she walked slowly to the bed and bent down. Using her hands she searched under the bed.
