My Killing President

Alistair Mu drew a deep breath, "Okay. It doesn't matter if you can accept him or not, I will respect your decision. As long as you are happy, you can do whatever you want. I believe that is also the reason why he hadn't said anything. The both of us wish for you to be

happy!"

"Alistair..."

"But I still want to show you something!" Alistair Mu said.

"What?"

At that time, Alistair Mu took out a document from the back of the car seat. He struggled for a while and passed it to her, "This is the information about your mother. I spent a long time to gather this information, but..." Alistair Mu didn't continue but his message was clear. Annabelle Xia looked at Alistair Mu and she was stunned. However, the woman took the document over and opened it. The moment she read through it, her grip tightened.

Although she had tried her best to control her emotion, Alistair Mu could see that she was shaken and her eyes welled up in tears...

It was the death certificate of Dawson Xiao.

And that was already more than twenty years ago.

Soon after she left Annabelle Xia.

Although Annabelle Xia had never seen her mother nor spent any time with her, now that she became a mother herself, she could feel the almost magical motherly love. The moment she saw the death certificate, she just couldn't control her emotion. The mother hadn't bring her up but she was the person that brought her to this world.

Alistair Mu was prepared for Annabelle Xia's reaction, however it may be. But now that she showed no respond at all, the husband was worried. He held her hand firmly and said, "My dad said he was afraid that Kaleb Hua might find out about you and she left you to the Xia family. I believe she did that for your best interest and she loves you dearly!"

Annabelle Xia had never thought about looking for her real mother because the Xia family cared for her greatly. All these while, she thought that she was abandoned and she hadn't thought that the truth was like this...

She would be lying if she said she didn't mind at all. But now the last bit of resentment in her heart was swept away.

Her tears dripped on the death certificate and as she looked at the piece of paper, she was lost and didn't know what to do.

"I have already found the place she is resting. If you want to visit her, I can bring you over..."

When Annabelle Xia heard that, she turned her head towards Alistair Mu. Although she said nothing, Alistair Mu understood the longing in her eyes.

"Let's go!" Alistair Mu said.

Annabelle Xia nodded and Alistair Mu started the car.

Two hours later, they reached a cemetery.

Alistair Mu held Annabelle Xia's hand and led her to a tombstone.

As they walked closer, they saw Dawson Xiao's picture on it. She had a beautiful smile and she was young in her picture. Her pair of eyes were lively and clear, she was just a beauty like Annabelle Xia. She had that peace-loving face and she had the gentlest smile.

Annabelle Xia looked at Alistair Mu and the man simply nodded. After that, he lowered a bouquet of flowers in front of the tombstone and bowed respectfully. Annabelle Xia stared at the picture on the tombstone. Although it wasn't her first time seeing Dawson Xiao's picture, she felt a sense of strange familiarity... That was her mother...

The woman stretched her arms slowly to touch the picture and she couldn't describe her feeling.

Alistair Mu tilted his head and looked at Annabelle Xia, "I will wait for you in the car. You... Just take your time!"

Annabelle Xia did not reply and Alistair Mu simply turned around and walked back.

As he was sitting in the car, he made sure that Annabelle Xia never left his sight...

And as Annabelle Xia stood in front of the tombstone and stared at the picture, her tears broke out from the corner of her eyes. "Mum..."

She called out silently with a smile.

After a long, long while, Alistair Mu just finished his phone call and the car door was opened. Annabelle Xia got inside the car.

The moment Alistair Mu saw her, he was stunned.

Annabelle Xia simply smiled back, "Let's go back!"

"You..."

Annabelle Xia drew a deep breath, "You were right. They had never wronged me and I do not have a reason to blame them. And after what happened, I do not wish to have any resentment as well. Life is just too precious and we must savor the present and live to the fullest!" Annabelle Xia said with a smile.

Alistair Mu nodded. The man knew that Annabelle Xia could definitely find her peace.

He looked at her and said, "You are right. But now, I have something important to tell you. You must be prepared!"

When Annabelle Xia saw his solemn expression, she knew it was something important and she had a bad intuition. "What is it?" She asked anxiously.

"Hua just called. He said that Kaleb Hua... Just got admitted to the hospital for heart failure!"

The moment Annabelle Xia heard that, her pupils dilated.

When Alistair Mu saw her expression, he just didn't know what to say.

"Go back, hurry!" Annabelle Xia was riled. It was like a bomb detonated in her mind and everything went blank.

Alistair Mu nodded and started the car right away.

On their way back, Annabelle Xia was pinching her dress. Although she said nothing, Alistair Mu could tell how worried she was. He stretched out his hand and held her hand firmly, "Don't worry. He will be fine!"

Annabelle Xia turned her head over and looked at Alistair Mu. After sometime, she sighed and nodded. Alistair Mu had always been her source of strength. With him around, Annabelle Xia could be restful.

Annabelle Xia hadn't been speaking on their journey back. When they reached the ward and as Annabelle Xia watched as Kaleb Hua lied in the bed, she felt the connection with the man.

The woman was shaking in fear and worry....

Hua walked out from inside and he saw Annabelle Xia standing by the door.

"Miss Xia..."

Annabelle Xia's eyes were reddened. She looked at Kaleb Hua and tried her best to hold back her tears, "He... How is he?" "He had pushed through the most dangerous period. But now he needed to stay back for further observation!" Hua said.

When Annabelle Xia heard that, she was relieved. She shut her eyes and tears broke free from the corner of her eyes.

At that time, Hua looked towards Alistair Mu and the man nodded at him. Hua knew that Annabelle Xia had found out what happened.

At that moment, he didn't know if he should be happy or otherwise.

But fortunately, he saw that Annabelle Xia was worried about Kaleb Hua.

"The doctor said he will be waking up after the effect of anesthesia." Hua looked at Annabelle Xia and said.

Annabelle Xia looked at the man in the bed. He was wearing a nasal cannulas.

The man looked as if he had aged severely.

"Let me go and arrange his admission procedures..." After saying that, Hua walked away.

Alistair Mu tapped on Annabelle Xia's shoulder and the both of them walked inside slowly.

Kaleb Hua simply lied in the bed quietly and there was only the beeping of the machines were heard in the ward. Alistair Mu led Annabelle Xia to Kaleb Hua's bed side and he looked at her, "I'll go look for the doctor!" And he left. The man wanted to give her some private space and time with Kaleb Hua, so she could get used to the change. After Alistair Mu went out, only Annabelle Xia and Kaleb Hua were left.

The room was in a deafening silence...

Annabelle Xia's eyes were red and filled with worry. But she didn't know how to express herself.

She had never imagined the day she comes face-to-face with her father.

And she hadn't expected the man to be him.

She could vividly remember when they were chatting in the past, Kaleb Hua would show a pained and remorseful expression whenever he thought about the past. But Annabelle Xia didn't blame him at all. The man didn't even know about her existence before meeting her. Even if someone were to be at fault, it wasn't all him... "You must be sure to recover... You must!" After a long time, Annabelle Xia wept.

In the same time, Hua appeared by the doorstep. When he saw what happened, he contemplated for a while and walked inside.

"Miss Xia..."

The moment Annabelle Xia heard Hua's voice, she wiped her tears quickly.

Hua stood beside her and said, "I believe you have found out everything. Brother Kaleb never dared to tell you because he was afraid you would blame him..." "Before finding out that you are his daughter, he planned to move to New Zealand. But because of you, he changed his mind and decided to stay by your side!" "If he had gone there earlier, his health might be better!"

After Annabelle Xia heard that, she was surprised that Kaleb Hua had known about it so long ago.

So that was why.

That was why he had always treated her so kindly and generously.

The woman said nothing and stared at the man in the bed.

"Few days ago, when the two of you came back, he made his will, leaving everything behind for you and the young master. He gave me my final assignment to protect the two of you after he is gone..." Hua said.

Every word from his mouth was heavy like a mountain.

In the end, Annabelle Xia couldn't take it anymore and she broke into tears.

Hua was heartbroken and to see her like that. But he knew he must speak his mind.

He turned his head over and looked at Kaleb Hua, "If we couldn't find a suitable heart, I'm afraid he..."

"He will be fine!" Before Hua finished his sentence, Annabelle Xia interrupted him.

"He will definitely be fine!" Annabelle Xia said determinedly and she looked at Kaleb Hua, "If anything happens to you, I will never forgive you for the rest of my life!" Kaleb Hua simply lied in the bed quietly and made no response.

The man was struggling hard in his dream. Now that he finally found his daughter, he was just desperate to live another day to spend more time with his family...0000000
