She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 674

Chapter 674: Assassin Shane

And so, she quickly found herself trapped in the quagmire of love.

Although she was studying in Jostrana, deep down she was a woman who loved traditional culture and had a romantic disposition.

During her time at the university, she became the man's secret mistress. And so, she spent four years as his mistress in Jostrana.

As her return to her home country approached, her family called her multiple times urging her to come back and inherit the family business. However, being infatuated with love, she naively believed that she could spend her life with the man.

Because of her stubbornness, she cut off contact with her family and chose to stay in Jostrana as the man's mistress. It was quite common for wealthy individuals in Jostrana to keep mistresses, and some even had concubines.

But this foolish woman believed herself to be the man's true love, unaware that she was just one of his many mistresses. The occasional tenderness he showed her was enough to make her yearn for him.

A few years passed, and she gave birth to a baby boy.

The man grew fond of the child and brought them both back to his family.

By then, the little boy was already five years old.

There, he encountered many siblings around his age, but they all disliked him because he carried Chulae blood in his veins.

They threw stones at him, pushed him to the ground, and forced him to imitate dogs. They tore his clothes and insulted his mother, calling her a shameless whore.

Because his mother was just an ordinary exchange student and didn't have the noble background like the other women around the man.

After less than three days there, the little boy couldn't bear it anymore. He held onto his mother and cried, telling her that he wasn't a bastard and that he wanted to see his father.

But the woman could only hold him and cry, apologizing to him and explaining that his father was too busy.

Days passed one after another, and throughout the year, the little boy had not seen his father once.

However, not long after, his mother suddenly packed their things and said they were going back to Chulae to see his grandfather.

The little boy had long grown tired of the life in the grand mansion, and he was thrilled to finally be leaving this place. He couldn't help but boast to the others before they departed.

They left on a winter morning with heavy snowfall.

As they left, the sky remained dark and gloomy. His mother wore a pink cherry dress, the first gift the man had given her.

He had praised her beautiful neck and the tenderness in her gaze when she lowered her head.

But apart from that, there was nothing else.

The woman's hometown was in Akloit, and his grandfather was just an ordinary carpenter.

For the little boy, his grandfather was a magical old man because he made many small toys to amuse him.

This was his first time in Chulae, and also his first time meeting his grandfather, the elderly man with white hair who gave him a hand-carved wooden bird.

He loved that wooden bird and hung it by his bedside, always looking at it before going to sleep.

The mother and son led a happy and peaceful life in Chulae, even though the little boy couldn't see his father. Every morning, when he opened the window, he saw lush fields, heard the chirping of birds, and smelled the fragrance of flowers. No one insulted or bullied his mother, forcing her to work day and night without enough food to eat.

In another year, he would start school. He had many wishes, but the strongest one was to become a doctor like his mother.

However, the good times didn't last. That man eventually found them.

It happened on a stormy night when lightning and rain filled the air. The man killed his grandfather.
