Domineering Lover novel Chapter 317

Elliott was right the man as Adam described, he did have too much energy. Tracey thought he must be tired after having a long flight.

When he finished bathing, he became even more vigorous. Elliott was born and raised in America, most of the education and culture he received were in American style.

Xia family's castle was an European building with Chinese interior design and decoration.

Elliott was interested in every details of this house, feeling curious like a child. In Tracey's eyes, he was just a big boy.

"You and your cousin are so different." Tracey sighed again.

Adam replied her calmly, "The difference not only lay in our characters but also in our childhood."

Tracey vaguely knew that Adam was an illegitimate child. She had never really known about Adam's past.

"Brother Adam, I have never asked you about your childhood. Why did your ship fail in the sea that year?" When Tracey was a little girl, she never thought of the reason, it was the time to question him.

"You want to listen?"

"Yes."

"Then I'll tell you. Come here." Adam waved his hand. Tracey walked up to him.

They stood by the railing of the second floor's balcony. They hold each other, looking at the distance. The wind at night blew the two people gently, Tracey’s hair waving in the air, she heard Adam’s voice sounded.

"My mother was born in a big family in the United States. She has a beautiful look and an enviable family background.

She had other two sisters, and her grandfather was relatively open-minded.

The people of the Xiao family were born to be faithful.

They were always a loving couple. My mother was the eldest, she was supposed to be responsible for the family business's development, but she didn't like doing business, she was fond of painting.

Moreover, she didn't like America at all. Even if the Xiao family had immigrated there long ago, she always felt that she didn't belong to this country.

She felt a strong sense of belonging to China. Every time she watched the TV and saw the map of China, which looked like an imposing rooster, she thought that she would return there someday.

So, she planned to go, going with herself. She was eager to see the water town of southern China, to see if there were girls walking on the stone-paved street with an oil-paper umbrella.

She also dreamt of going to the broad grassland to see the people on the back of horse herding and singing in the deep of the grass.

She especially wanted to look at Mount Tianshan with her eyes, wanted to dance in the scene of Galsang flowers and the leisurely flock of sheep.

As soon as thought of these pictures, she would feel like having a wonderful life. Then she gave up wealth and her extravagant lifestyle, going to China alone.

China was so big that the power of my grandfather could not take her back, even if every time he had just got her news but soon lost her whereabouts before catching her.

Isn't it melodramatic? A delicate young lady doesn't want her wealthy family but wants to become a wandering painter."

Adam asked softly. Tracey shook her head. "Your mom is a woman in spirits. Her soul is free. She shouldn't be bound by the cage.
