Chapter 395 Hard To Breathe

Looking Zeke in the eyes, Kang Jun waited for the man to speak but there was a sudden long silence before the man spoke again.

"He's much happier with you than he could ever be with me. Anna would be happy as long as he's happy." Zeke said remembering how Anna, in her guilt, had refused to get out of the institution after giving birth because of what she had done to the innocent Lu AnLing who she had befriended.

She loved Kang Zhi but she didn't think she had the right to be happy if Lu AnLing was not. She had begged Kang Zhi to help her and to make sure that both Lu AnLing's children and their own child lived safe happy lives.

Kang Zhi has trusted that Qiao Lan would do this for him. Mostly, when he had allowed himself to disappear after the attempt on his life but he overestimated the situation... because just because Qiao Lan loved him didn't mean that she would take good care of Kang Mei Xue and Kang Mingyu...

Zeke: "I saw him... Mingyu that is. He looks happy... it seems like you and Qiao Lan have done a good job."

Hearing this, Kang Jun felt his whole mood darken and the coldness in the room began to reflect this feeling.

"You're a coward." Kang Jun said through clenched teeth. He was disgusted in Kang Zhi's choice. "You ran away. Do you even know how Mingyu suffered?"

Zeke looked at Kang Jun with confusion. He knew nothing about how his son had lived. He knew nothing of Qiao Lan's abuse but Kang Jun still partially blamed him for what had happened to Kang Mingyu.

"Why do you have so much trust in Qiao Lan? Because she loved you? Because she chased you like a lost puppy? Don't mess with me. Qiao Lan was a horrible mother. She hurt not only your son but my daughter also." Kang Jun said as he felt the sudden urge to kill. Kang Jun clenched his first and felt as if it was hard to breathe. "You left your child, your responsibility, for what? A woman who you couldn't even keep alive?"

Hearing this, this time, Zeke's face darkened. He didn't mean to let Anna die. He tried his best to make sure she was safe. He even poured time and effort so that Anna would be watched almost 24 hours a day and 7 days per week but Anna didn't want to live. Anna's guilt for what she had done to Lu AnLing had eaten away at her soul but what really drove her into a corner was Kang Zhi's love for her. When Kang Zhi had come back as Zeke, Anna had been destroyed. Kang Zhi, because he had only thought of Anna, had broken his promise. At that point Anna had believed her son was lost and alone. And this though had consumed her in darkness and when a person was deep within this thick darkness it was hard to swim out of it. Anna surely couldn't.

Kang Jun remembered certain things he had read from Anna's diary when he was trying to get some answers. He knew depression when he saw it. He had been depressed before but he had a reason to live. Anna's reason had disappeared when Kang Zhi had appeared before her as Zeke.

Thinking about this, Kang Jun felt his soul shake.

"You don't care about anyone else but yourself. You have no right to be called a father!" Kang Jun's words exuded his aggression. He almost screamed at Kang Zhi as he spoke those words.

Kang Zhi listened to Kang Jun without complain. He couldn't deny what the man had said but at the same time he didn't like being spoken to as such so he just stayed silent.

Kang Jun took the man's silence as a sign of acceptance and so he asked, "Do you truly want to atone?"

As he said this, he approached Kang Zhi slightly.

Hearing this Kang Zhi looked up to his brother who stood slightly above him not only in stature but in honour.

"I do." The man said lowly.

"Good." Kang Jun said. "I'll give you a chance. Tonight, come to Kang Manor."

Kang Zhi stiffened at the thought of Kang Manor. He was about to say he couldn't do such a thing but then Kang Jun sent the man a glare so powerful that Kang Zhi's tongue ceases to move.

"This is the only way you'll atone for anything." Kang Jun said harshly.

Outside, Kang Liang had gotten the gist of things. He was about to go inside and confront his brothers but suddenly, he felt his phone ring. Feeling the vibration, Kang Liang felt his heart in his throat.

Thankfully the phone was on silent mode. If it wasn't, he would have surely been caught.

Looking at his phone he saw that it was Lu Xing calling him. Seeing this, he frowned and then he walked down the hall before he answered the call.

Meanwhile, in another room, Kang, Lu and Tang family members gathered. They watched over Lu AnLing.

When Lu AnLing woke up she was at the hospital surrounded by many Tang and Kang family members and somehow, even her mother, brother, sister and Xu Shen had arrived to check on her.
