Karl grew irritated when Wayne said what he was thinking. He said, “What’s wrong? You don’t think it’s
not going to work? I’m sure
Peace will be fine.”
Wayne said firmly, “Oh, no, you’re such a naive fool. I think that since you will be married later, your
parents will thoroughly check
her background. If they know that she had such a serious condition and you are concealing it from
them, they would never give you their blessing.”
Wayne had met Karl’s parents when he was a child. They were nice parents who allowed Karl to do
whatever he wanted as an adult.
They didn’t like being duped, though. So, if they later find out that Karl kept such an important secret
from them, they would despise
Peace.
“You know, if that happens, your parents will hate Peace.”
Karl frowned and said, “Actually, I can just talk to my parents. You know, I’m not worried whether they’ll
accept the truth or not. Peace can’t think straight now. So, if she finds out that I took the liberty of telling
people we’re dating after she’s sober, she’ll be pissed. In
fact, she and I are actually on a break right now.”
Seeing that Karl could do this for her, Wayne figured he didn’t have to say anything more to persuade
him. He gave Karl a friendly pat
on the shoulder and said, “Well, that’s all I want to say to you. By the way, Anna wants to talk to you
after a while.”
“Sure,” Karl said with a nod.
After a while, Anna came out of the bedroom.
Wayne realized what he needed to do right now. As a result, he stood up and prepared to leave. “I’m
heading to the garage now to
fetch my car,” he added.
As he finished and walked away, he gave Anna a glance.
“Have a seat, please,” Karl said.
Anna replied calmly, “Oh, no, I’m not sitting down. You didn’t take much of his words to heart, did you?”
Karl explained, “No, I know what Wayne was trying to say. He meant well, and he cared so much about
me. But, actually, he wasn’t
thinking about Peace at all.”
Anna fixed her stare on him, her glance as sharp as a knife. She said, “Well, I am. I’m not going to say
anything pleasant,
though.”
“That’s all right. You may say it now because I am prepared. In fact, I was prepared for anything from
the moment I learned that she
was sick.”
“Good. But have you ever considered whether you’ll get tired of all these one days? Will you give up
taking care of her because you
Can’t stand it any longer?” Anna asked seriously.
“One moment, please,” Karl replied, clenching his fist.
He then walked over to the bookcase in the corner of the room. He yanked open the bookcase’s
bottom shelf door and slid a silver
portable sale out.
“Here‘s documentation of all my real estate, Anna. I own 36 properties in all, the most valuable of which
is in London. I own six
houses in Birmingham, three of which are stores, which I have all rented out. The rest of the residences
are scattered across the country
in various tourist destinations. And then, here are all my cars and documentation of ownership of my
stock.”
“What are you showing me all this for?” When Anna saw him showing her so many documents, she
was puzzled. Even though he
kept talking for a long time, he only introduced hall of the prools in the sale. Then, Anna interrupted
him.
Karl stopped, looked up at her, and said seriously, “Anna, I know what you mean. You believe that I’ll
run out of patience and won’t
be able to care for Peace any longer one day. Actually, I’ve thought about that too. But I’ll take care of
her for the rest of my life unless /
die. So, I’d want to show you some of my assets. I’ve also requested my lawyer to draft an agreement
for me. If that day comes, I will give
all my possessions to her.”
“Have you considered what would happen if she couldn’t gain access to those assets?” Anna found it
hard to say those words but she
said them anyway.
“Well, I’ve also thought about that. I’ve asked a trust, a welfare organization and a psychiatric hospital
to keep an eye on each other
so they can take care of Peace.”
After hearing Karl’s words, Anna was convinced that he had really thought about caring for Peace for
the rest of his life. Furthermore, he did not appear to take it on the spur of the moment, as he was a
little too cautious in this regard. He even considered if the trust and
the welfare organization were working together to defraud him of his money.
He said that he wanted Peace to live until she was eighty years old. At that point, the hospital would
give her a physical checkup.
Only after ensuring she was in the same physical condition as her peers would the welfare organization
have the rest of the money.
So, Anna had nothing to say about it.
They heard someone crying in the bedroom as they were leaving Karl’s house. Karl was used to it and
explained to them, “Well, I’m
not going to walk you out. She’s probably crying because the movie has made her sad. So, I’m going to
comfort her.”
“Okay, bye,” Anna said. She realized that Karl was the only one who could take care of Peace best.
However, she also began to worry
that Karl’s life would be turned upside down because of this.
Wayne asked about something else when they got in the car instead of talking about Karl and Peace.
“Are you going to see Tammy at Grandpa’s?” After learning that Peace was sick, Wayne let Tammy
stay with his grandfather.
Anna was not in the mood to see her daughter, so she signed and said, “Oh, not now. If she sees me,
I’m sure she’ll ask where Peace
is. You know, I haven’t figured out how to answer her yet.”
“Well, then you’d better visit her sometime later. Tammy is doing well at Grandpa’s, according to Henry.
They’ll pick her up and
drop her off at school when the new semester begins.. So, you don’t have to worry too much, Anna.
They can take good care of her.”
“Why? After I get my company up and running, I’ll have time to pick her up from school.” Anna said.
She didn’t like what Wayne had
just said since it made her appear as if she intended to do nothing but lay on her laurels and do
nothing.
Wayne cave Anna a look as if he was thinking about how he should put it. Then, he said, “Well, Gabe
can keep an eye on the
construction team for you. But, you need to think about your designers. You know that Andrew can’t be
the only person on your design
team, right? I’ve already taken it upon myself to have Gabe recruit for Lemon, Anna.”
“Please don’t bire a chiel designer,” Anna said softly as she regained her composure.
“Well, sure.”
The busiling, steels of Birmingham were lighted by neon lights in the lovely moonlight.
Annabepan to ponder what people would be willing to do for love. Because Peace possessed a high
sense of self-esteem, her
greatest worry was being abandoned by others. As a result, she kept her illness hidden from Karl. But,
in the end, she collapsed and it was
Karl who kept laking care of her.
Anna leaned back in her seat and stared at Wayne in the driver’s seal for a long time in a daze.
Then she said, “Wayne, I have a confession to mak
