“Vanessa, we should revenge for that child. We must catch Rachel Scott, don’t you want to tear her
down? You must screw up the courage to stay alive, even just for the purpose of revenging!”
Georgia Lane felt that, for sure Vanessa hadn’t fallen asleep, Vanessa could actually hear what she
had said.
“If you still want to revenge on Alfred Chow, I will support you too. No matter what, don’t give up your
live.”
Vanessa Cooke kept closing her eyes, but Georgia could see the tears falling from Vanessa’s eyes.
She knew, Vanessa was not sleeping.
Elsie Clarke didn’t know what Georgia was talking about, but she started to talk too.
“Vanessa, do you know how my life was when I was young? My clothes were always the leftover
clothes from the old boys and girls in the family, and I had not enough to eat every day. They always
beat us, but I still had to help them to wash their clothes… Sometimes when they gave us a meal or
even a fruit, I even fought with other children until bleeding. Even during that time, I didn’t have the
thought of dying to end my life. I kept thinking that as long as I could win them, then I would have things
to eat, so I could stay alive!”
“When I was 10 years old, the director tempted me to his office by telling me that he was finding a good
adoptive person for me, so I went to meet him. During the first time, the director brought me to a
beautiful room, with many tasty foods inside. I was so excited and thought that finally I could get rid of
that kind of life, so I sat there, enjoying the foods while waiting for the parents who wanted to adopt me
to come. I wished that they would bring me home, but the person who came was a middle-aged man.
He showed me a disgusting smile, then he teared off my clothes. I didn’t know anything during that
time, I just felt that it was painful. Even until the man had left, I still didn’t understand what had
happened to me, I just felt that I was deeply wronged and suffered. I didn’t want to experience that just
for the purpose of eating, but how should I continue to stay alive if I didn’t want to eat those things?”
“I thought this would stop there, but the director noticed my manner, he smiled and coaxed me that he
would give me foods every time I came here. Even he himself also teared off my clothes and he always
asked me to go to his office. Since I was 10 years old, I always saw many different men who came to
find me. During that time, I began to have a lot of things to eat. There were many people who envied
me, they even wanted to grab those chances from me, but I was the prettiest girl among that age
range. Slowly, I grew up and finally understood what it meant, but I still didn’t think of leaving this world.
I thought of dying together with them by setting there on fire. I thought of many different possibilities,
but I realized that I couldn’t do that. If I really set the place on fire, maybe those dying would be the pity
little boys and girls. I was not able to do that, so I tried to find a way to run away from there, but I was
exposed.”
“I was sold after that, I experienced a lot, but I still didn’t think of leaving this world. I always consoled
myself that at least I survived. Vanessa, I didn’t tell you these things last time because I didn’t want you
to be sad. Actually, I don’t care of these things anymore because I have survived, and my life onwards
will be wonderful. With you here to protect me, perhaps I can even earn money above board. But now if
you are leaving me, I feel that this world is really discarding me. If you wish to revenge, I will help you.
Please, open your eyes, don’t keep your mouth shut, okay?”
After Elsie said out these words, Georgia suddenly covered her eyes and cried.
She already guessed that Elsie had suffered a lot in the past, but she didn’t dare to think deep into
these.
Just like she didn’t dare to see what had happened to the prostitutes in old times, she didn’t dare to
watch those tragic documentaries and movies.
This time, Vanessa finally opened her eyes and got up from the bed, then she hugged Elsie tightly.
“Elsie, I’m sorry, I just feel that I’m so depressed until I don’t feel like saying anything and I just wish to
ignore everyone, but I’m not against you. I had lost the courage to continue to be alive that moment
actually, but once you stopped me, I didn’t have the courage to die anymore. You’re right, staying alive,
only staying alive will allow me to revenge, I still want to revenge for my child…”
Vanessa hugged Elsie and cried, she was throwing all the wronged and pain feelings out from her
heart. Vanessa was even thinking that Elsie had suffered so much in her life, and she herself were also
suffered a lot after she grew up, why their life was so suffering? Why had they faced so many
problems?
The most important was, their enemies were still there, why they need to continue to be suffered?
“Elsie, I want to revenge for my child. Those who had hurt you, we want to revenge too. Didn’t you
meet the director and the one who bullied you last time? We will revenge together, if not, what is the
meaning of staying alive?”
“Vanessa, just do whatever you want, we will revenge together if you want to revenge. If you just want
to stay in a peaceful place, without caring anything, I won’t have any objection. I just wish that we can
stay together, I don’t ever have a loved one, I don’t want you to leave me.”
The two women were talking, Georgia stood up and left the ward.
She felt that if she continued to stay there at this moment, she would be disturbing their conversation.
It was the entanglement that couldn’t break off between the loved ones, and it was the pain that she
couldn’t feel the same.
Even if she cared about Vanessa a lot, but as compared to what she had experienced, the things that
happened on Vanessa was way more suffering.
At least her daughter, Annie was still alive, and she already had a trustable boyfriend. All the
grievances in her had been washed away.
Her life was, indeed, very lucky.
Georgia stood silently in the corridor for a very long time, then she finally walked towards her ward.
Annie was brought involuntarily to them just now, she didn’t know how the current situation was.
After knocking the door, Georgia walked into her ward. Annie asked agitatedly after seeing that her
mommy was back.
“Mommy, I have waited you for so long, how are Vanessa? Can I go and meet her now?”
“Vanessa had fallen asleep after crying.”
Georgia lied.
“Annie, sometimes when you have an injection and you feel pain, will you cry it out? Sometimes when
mommy doesn’t care about your mood, will you feel wronged?”
Annie nodded with puzzled look.
“Annie, you know that when someone cry, he or she would feel very upset, so does Vanessa. She had
faced some problems which made her wanna cry, and she still couldn’t stop this feeling even until now.
So, Annie can’t visit Vanessa for now, all right?”
Annie was a bit not willing to, but she understood what mommy said.
In fact, she had slowly known a little bit, that her Vanessa was extremely depressed now, until she had
even ignored her.
“When can I visit Vanessa? Will it be very long?”
Annie had compromised and asked.
“It will not be very long, maybe a few days, or perhaps a week, but Annie will give Vanessa some time,
isn’t it? Mummy will stay by your side, so does Robert, so Annie won’t feel lonely, isn’t it?”
Annie just kept her head low. In fact, Vanessa was the one that she most relied on, since she was the
one who had always by her side since young.
However, she couldn’t be disobedient at this point when Vanessa was upset.
“I got it. When I can visit Vanessa, mommy must bring me there as soon as possible, I have a lot of
words to talk to Vanessa.”
“It won’t be too long, don’t worry.”
Georgia tried to comfort Annie.
From the beginning to the end of the conversation, Robert Simpson was watching beside while Ivan
had left in the middle.
After a while, Georgia read some fairy tales and played toys with Annie. Finally about an hour later,
Annie fell asleep.
Georgia then told Robert about what had happened just now, Robert was extremely shocked.
“Is there really no harm from Alfred? Will he continue to tangle with Vanessa, or even entrap her?”
Robert didn’t know well about Alfred, he was worried that Alfred would make Vanessa’s impulsive
behaviour today as a weapon in his hand.
“He won’t. Even though I hate him so much now, but he didn’t dare to entrap. He must be suffering
now, although less suffering than Vanessa, but it’s enough for him, yet what is the point of this? The
child was already lost for six years. If it wasn’t because of Rachel Scott that always stayed by his side,
how come Vanessa will suffer so much? I just hope that they won’t tangle each other anymore.”
Robert understood it and nodded, the entanglement in this relationship, initially he still thought that
there was still a chance between them.
However, there was a huge suffer that split them apart. Robert felt that, no matter Alfred or Vanessa,
they would feel the pain when they saw each other.
“Don’t worry, I will find the way to find out Rachel Scott. Vanessa was fine with her mental condition
now, she has decided to brace up for the revenge, so we must help her to find out Rachel Scott. After
revenging Rachel, perhaps the suffer in her could be relieved by a little bit.”
Georgia nodded with thankfulness.
“Sorry to bother you, Robert. The only current motive for Vanessa is revenge, if we don’t find out
Rachel Scott, I really have no idea what’s the motive for Vanessa to stay alive…”
They talked about these, Robert sighed.
Initially he thought that Georgia and him had already suffered a lot, but now it seemed that as
compared to the things that had happened on Alfred and Vanessa, what he had experienced was not
considered as suffer and pain at all.
He shouldn’t be greedy anymore, he should appreciate what he owned for now.
That night, Robert brought Annie back to the bungalow. Georgia was not willing to let Annie to stay in
the ward everyday and Robert had his own jobs to do also.
So, she let Robert to bring Annie back to home. As long as she was staying inside the ward which was
guarded by the bodyguards, there should be no problem.
Robert was still worried about the call from Rachel during the day, he called his mom again.
The call was answered very soon, Robert asked his mom curiously.
“Mom, Rachel called me today, she said you didn’t answer her call, what had she done? Did she make
you angry?”
