Chapter 888 – #97. Lanna (48)
My mother-in-law, who came to meet my father-in-law, said that she had said everything that was inside him and that she had no regrets about him anymore.
Thanks to that, once again, no, this time, I was able to create a place where the whole family could meet together.
“Thank you for your permission. You may feel uncomfortable…”
“No. It’s enough for me just to save my boyfriend from something that was about to happen.”
Of course, before that, I had to ask for understanding from a woman in a common-law marriage who lives with her father-in-law.
From the woman’s point of view, her old family suddenly appeared and suddenly pretended to be friendly, so it couldn’t be bothersome.
However, it seems that she has decided to accept the part that may be uncomfortable in that she saved her father-in-law when she was almost in trouble.
“And… I’ve benefited a bit from this too. I couldn’t tell her brother, but in fact, she got me into trouble sometimes.”
“Did something like that happen?”
“Really?”
“I’m sorry I couldn’t tell you, oppa.
“Why can’t you say that!?”
“…Sorry.”
“Ha… I was such an ugly person. I didn’t even know that… I was rotting inside myself, but I was the only one who was happy. If I had told you earlier, I would have ended up with that person somehow…!”
“Don’t do that. It’s over.”
The father-in-law held her mouth tight as if she was at a loss for words at her wife’s words.
I suddenly remembered the words of my father-in-law who said it was all over.
After the father-in-law left her house, she told me in the moving car.
“I thought it was strange from the time he had a change, but I didn’t know that it was Lanna’s doing.”
“Please be comfortable with me. Father-in-law. You promised to do so the next time we meet.”
“Haha, yes. I should be comfortable now. But is it really what the son-in-law did? It seems like things are blowing up too big.”
The grown-up father-in-law said that she was dumbfounded when a big trouble broke out in the company and the woman was arrested and forced to enter.
“I wondered if this was really a dream or real life. I… I couldn’t even imagine that something like this could happen… Haa~ I just couldn’t believe it?”
The father-in-law seemed hard to believe what had happened recently.
“Why was it so hard to believe?”
“…I’m saying this because I’m with you, but to me, that person was an existence that I couldn’t dare oppose.”
“I heard that he was a junior, but was it not comfortable to live after marriage?”
“It wasn’t comfortable. I have to live with someone who doesn’t have a heart, and even seeing that child’s face was disgusting to me. But I should have talked to him face-to-face every day, ate together, and slept together.”
Hearing this, I imagined a life that would have been embarrassing.
Do you have to live with someone you don’t like?
It wouldn’t have been easy even for a patient person.
“After enduring for such a long time, I was finally able to get out of his hands. Luckily, I met a good person who would stay by my side.”
After the father-in-law said that, she was speechless for a while, and then she spoke.
“I don’t think I’m a careless person… Did you feel it too?”
“Um…Yes.”
When she saw the father-in-law’s wife, she was quite surprised on the inside.
“You look a lot like your mother-in-law.”
“It’s embarrassing, but that’s why I fell in love with that person. But my love is real.”
“Sure. You two look good together.”
“I hope you don’t tell him. It’s embarrassing.”
“It’s nothing to be ashamed of, but I’ll do it if you want.”
“Looks like I’m showing you a lot of embarrassing things. Hearing that it’s okay because her wife is in the past wakes me up.”
I remembered that my father-in-law and mother-in-law said that it was already the past, that it was okay, and that they wanted to move on because they did not want to suffer from the past.
The father-in-law continued with a very painful expression.
“I wondered if Lanna was making a big deal out of nothing. It doesn’t make sense. It’s over! What does it matter if someone else said it was over when the person in question didn’t finish it? I thought I was losing. Did Lanna have a hard time too?”
“No. Mr. Lanna fully understands the feelings of the two of you. She already saw that she had worn out her desire to resent someone after a long time.”
“You’re right. It was because I was thinking of doing something if I had to think about it now. But after hearing that my wife had suffered from that person, I didn’t feel that way. I wanted to strangle him right away.”
It seems that she couldn’t have known how her wife was suffering because she had lived with that woman for years.
“You broke someone else’s family and took over your father-in-law, why didn’t that person cherish your father-in-law?”
“It was like that at first. It was so obsessive that it didn’t leave me alone even for a day. But even if people keep pouring out love, if they don’t get the reward, they’ll collapse.”
No matter how much she pours out her love, she says that the woman is also tired of the love that never returns.
“The thought of wanting to be compensated cuts your love for me.”
And eventually, that person started to be comforted by another man.
I couldn’t let go of my obsession with myself, so I kept taking him to the seat next to him.
“It was like that. I somehow got my hands on a toy that an immature, greedy child wouldn’t play with. I was a toy to him.”
“…Father-in-law.”
“That’s why I have nothing to say after seeing you. You did what I couldn’t.”
It was a cool revenge.
That seemed to have made the father-in-law admired.
I felt a sense of familiarity with the attitude of my father-in-law who treated me much more than the last time I met him.
“But really… Is that what you did?”
“That’s right. However, I’m sorry that I couldn’t take care of my father-in-law in the process.”
“No, it’s fine. Never mind me. If you investigate, you’ll find out that I’m the president of the pants anyway. I didn’t have any authority in that company.”
“If I did something wrong, I could have become a target for taking out my anger on the people there. That’s because the people involved with that woman were stronger than I thought.”
In addition, there was a lot of drugs, so he must have released his anger somewhere.
If so, who would be the target?
Among those who did not know the details of the woman’s family circumstances, the easiest was the father-in-law.
“I’m sorry though.”
At least in order to commit the work, it is right that the father-in-law should have prepared in advance so that there is no damage.
“Anyway…I’m satisfied enough for now.”
“Um… Are your daughters alright? I’m afraid I haven’t been able to contact them.”
“Daughter? Ah~ those children?”
The two daughters of the current father-in-law were secured by Bianca.
Since they were children of the father-in-law’s bloodline, they couldn’t touch her daughters too much and kept them locked up.
Although I told my two daughters that I was keeping them for protection, there was a high probability that something bad would happen to them, if I were to say.
However, the adult father-in-law showed a young attitude towards the disappearance of her daughter.
“Well, it’s not such a big secret…It’s really…”
“If it’s hard for you to say it, it’s okay if you don’t.”
“No, no. It’s okay. I can tell you. Those children are not all my daughters. Of course, they are listed as my daughters in the family register, but they are not related by blood.”
“!!!!!”
I thought she didn’t look like her father-in-law, but it was quite surprising that both of her daughters weren’t his biological daughters.
“Wasn’t the reason you broke up with your mother-in-law because she was pregnant?”
“There was a reason for that. I also found out later. That person manipulated my pregnancy to take me away. Without knowing that, I lived for over ten years trying to make love. But is it really strange? I mean it didn’t stick.”
He thinks he felt it instinctively, the adult father-in-law continued.
“I couldn’t believe it. But neither the first child nor the second child was mine.”
At least it was his daughters who kept him by his side.
“But when they told me that even those kids weren’t my children, I was exhausted. I also understood why I couldn’t attach affection to them.”
It seems that the life of an adult father-in-law was much more eventful than I imagined.
“It must have been a huge shock.”
“I’ve never been so shocked in my life. I’m sorry for your mother-in-law, but it was worse than when I decided to break up with her.”
The conversation the two of them had throughout the journey with the father-in-law was more fruitful than expected.
Can I say that I have come to understand my father-in-law a little more?
“Come this way.”
Listening to the complaints of the father-in-law and talking about the old days while moving, we arrived at our destination in an instant.
“That…How about me?”
He seemed to be very nervous about going to see his grandson and granddaughter.
Today, he asked me about his appearance with his bangs up and dressed up in a suit.
“Are you that nervous?”
Even when I went to see her mother-in-law, I heard that she hadn’t decorated herself this far.
It is said that the mother-in-law was secretly saddened by it, and she mocked the father-in-law in a playful way, and said that she had to meet her granddaughter today, so she obediently followed her wife’s words to improve her appearance.
Maybe today, if your mother-in-law sees your father-in-law, wouldn’t it be pretty ridiculous?
‘It must be fun.’
Since the children are kind, they will be well-loved by their father-in-law.
“I don’t care what to do if the kids don’t like it.”
“I won’t. The kids are nice and gentle.”
“Yeah…Yes. Thanks to you, I’m getting some courage.”
“Shall we go?”
“Yeah, whoa… I’ll go.”
Smart tock-
We arrived at the meeting place after being guided by the staff.
As I approached the room, I heard the clattering laughter of babies inside.
The hands of the adult craftsman who opened the door were shaking.
