Chapter 839 - Chapter 680

“Sure, it’s nothing much. It’s just that not long after your family left, my father came back to look for me and my mother.” Speaking of his father, Chen Ming’s eyes were filled with an unknown emotion, after so many years, although he had followed his father back, he still could not completely forgive his father. “However, when he found us, my mother’s health was already very bad.”

“Then how is your mother’s health now? If she is still feeling unwell, you can ask Meng’er to take a look at her. Meng’er’s medical skills are very good.” Chen Haoxuan still had some memory of Chen Ming’s mother, not only Chen Ming, Chen Meng’er also had some memory. Chen Ming’s mother was a very gentle and kind person. At that time, Chen Ming’s family’s conditions weren’t good. However, every time she saw Chen Haoxuan, Chen Meng’er and the others would take out the few snacks in the house and stuff them with it.

Chen Meng’er could roughly guess the situation from Chen Ming’s expression. However, in her impression, other than her physical weakness, Chen Ming’s mother’s health wasn’t too bad.

“Thank you for your kindness. My mother is long gone. She left a month after my father found us,” Chen Ming said as his eyes turned red. His mother’s death had always been a pain in his heart. And the words of the doctor back then had made him hate his father to this day.

The doctor had said that if they had come to the hospital a week earlier, his mother could still be saved. Therefore, he had been blaming his father in his heart. Why didn’t he come to find him and his mother earlier? Especially after he returned to the Wharton family and found out why his father had come to find him and his mother after such a long time, he hated his father even more.

“Ah, I’m sorry, I didn’t know.” Chen Haoxuan was at a loss. Chen Haoxuan felt really bad when he mentioned her.

“It’s okay.” Chen Ming smiled, but there was a bit of bitterness in his smile. It was only after his mother passed away that he truly experienced what it meant to be a child with a mother like a treasure. “This is all in the past. I’ve long accepted this fact in my heart. Moreover, after my father and I returned to his family, life was pretty good. At least, I didn’t have to worry about food and clothing anymore.” Chen Ming’s smile made Chen Haoxuan and Chen Meng’er’s hearts ache when they saw it.

For a moment, Chen Meng’er and Chen Haoxuan didn’t know what to say. Those comforting words, no matter how hard they tried, couldn’t be said. Because, those comforting words, in the eyes of Chen Meng’er and Chen Haoxuan, seemed so pale and powerless.

“Right, who is your father?” Chen Meng’er asked. She wanted to break the tense atmosphere.

“My father is Jim Wharton,” Chen Ming replied. “I also have a name, Abby Wharton. However, I still like to be called Chen Ming.” The name Chen Ming, made him feel like he had a sense of belonging.

“So you’re the successor of the Wharton family that was brought back from the outside.” Chen Meng’er suddenly understood. Chen Ming had changed his name. She roughly knew his situation. She hadn’t expected that the boy who had been bullied by the children of the village all those years ago would actually become the successor of the famous Wharton family in Country M.

However, it was precisely because Chen Meng’er knew Chen Ming’s identity that she looked at Chen Ming with a trace of sympathy.

Speaking of which, according to the information she had obtained, Chen Ming, the successor of the Wharton family, hadn’t been having an easy time in the Wharton family.

That year, the elder of the Wharton family, Chen Ming’s grandfather, didn’t agree to Chen Ming entering the Wharton family. However, he couldn’t do anything to his son, Chen Ming’s father, Jim Wharton, who insisted that he felt guilty about Chen Ming’s mother’s death. He insisted on bringing Chen Ming back to the Wharton family.
