Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2165

"Are you all right, Joan? You don't seem to be in a good mood recently," Caiden asked.

How can I feel good? He's encountered a serious accident because of me. In addition, he's also fallen out with his mother because of me. These two incidents made Joan feel so uneasy and sad. "Caiden, why did you chase your mother away? She's your own flesh and blood." Joan could not hold back her query anymore.

It's a long story. Should I tell her? Looking at the woman standing before him, Caiden contemplated.

Perhaps I should tell her everything about me, including my childhood, teenage years, and adulthood. If I hide from the person that I love, our days ahead will be filled with doubts and suspicions. "Okay, I'll tell you. When I was really little, my dad and mom left me at my grandparents'..." Caiden reminisced the past as he shared his stories.

He remembered it vividly and described all the specifics to Joan who was so engrossed in listening.

I never knew he has gone through so much. Joan's expression dimmed.

She always thought that Caiden's life was like a bed of roses and without any worries because he was born with a silver spoon. Conversely, he led a pitiful life lacking the sincere love of his parents. They gave him away when he needed them most. As a result, his grandparents assumed the roles of his parents.

No wonder he doesn't want to go home and is being counseled by Jaden.

Many a time, people feel helpless when there are unresolved issues that plague a family.

We hardly see a perfect solution to all problems faced; it's almost a mission impossible. Had Caiden grew up like any other ordinary child-showered with great love from his parents, their family would have lost the chance of building a big company. Many things are related, but people tend to look only at what's presented on the superficial level.

If everyone were to be more tolerant, the world would certainly be a better place.

"Caiden, have you ever wondered how you could live so well and was raised comfortably if not for your parents? Can you deny the fact that you've never lacked a single thing since young?

"Has it ever crossed your mind that when you're nibbling a drumstick and drinking a bowl of hot soup, your parents were still pulling an all-nighter at the office?" Joan was worked up as she prompted Caiden to think from his parents' perspectives.

She loathed those who did not practice filial piety, especially children who were not grateful to their parents. To many people, it goes unsaid to be thankful for what their parents have done for them. In fact, it's a core essential that even elementary school children have cultivated in them. On the contrary, Caiden has been holding grudges against his parents since he was young.

"Ever since I started my first job during my high school days, I have been footing all of my expenses, including my tuition fees. I didn't use a single cent of their money and I couldn't care less about it," Caiden said indignantly.

What's with his attitude? What about all the things his parents had done to raise him up? From milk powder to snacks and school supplies; weren't these provided by his own father and mother? Joan could not figure out what made him so obstinate. Something might have happened in between... Joan studied the man before him.

"All in all, I just don't like them and I'm not willing to see them ever again, let alone being with them," Caiden said straightforwardly.

What made this man so adamant and cruel to his own parents?

"That's enough. Let's drop the topic. What would you like to eat? I'll go get it for you." Joan changed the subject.

"Anything. I'll eat whatever you buy. I'd better get some shut-eye." With that, he lay down and slept.

It's such a pity to see a wonderful man treating his parents like they are archenemies when they could actually live like a blessed family.
