Chapter 132 - Dinner (2)

When Xi Ana said those words he then remembered the purpose of this meal, he got carried away with the flow of the conversation that he almost forgot what he needed to do although it is not intentional.

Xi Ana is the only person who could easily make him lose track of what's in front of him, there are even times when he just wanted to enjoy the moment they were together without minding everything around them but of course that can't be.

Upon remembering everything that he had to tell Xi Ana, his face turned serious and there is no hint of the playfulness of reminiscing from earlier.

"There are various reasons why I'm only telling these things to you now and even though I don't mention those reasons I know that you already know why."

Aside from Lu Nai He no one has yet to know about this matter, this is also one of the reasons why he wanted this dinner to be very exclusive for just the two of them because he wanted to avoid for this matter to be known by the public.

It is not only him who will be affected when this matter was publicized, even his family will be and so he wanted to protect them at all cost.

Both of them understand that they have kept secrets from each other all this time because that time their relationship isn't solidified as it is now.

Before, there was no meaning to tell important matters to each other because they were merely strangers but now it is already different.

"This matter goes both ways you know."

There is no need for elaborate explanations between them because they both know that when it comes to matters concerning their secrets, there is more than one reason why they can't easily divulge everything to each other at once.

This is why they could move forward together bit by bit. Just like how they took small steps to get to this stage of their relationship they will also do so in other aspects of their lives.

Even Lim Yi Sheng was not sure on how to start everything, he does not where to start explaining things that is why he decided to bring the will of Cheng Ningxue that was given to him by Samantha when they first met.

He took a yellow stained envelope from the inside pocket of his coat that was hanging at the back of his chair before pushing it in front of Xi Ana, clearly indicating for the other to open it.

"It will be a lot easier to explain everything once you have read this letter since this is basically what started this or rather what made me aware of the matter." this will indeed make the explanation shorter.

"Are you sure I can read it?"

"Of course, since I've already decided to tell you then there is no different if I let you read this."

Xi Ana reached out for the envelope on top of the table and carefully took out the letter inside.

One could easily determine from the color of the paper that this letter has been kept for at least a few years already and this made Xi Ana;s curiousity rose even more, just how heavy is the content of this letter to be carried until now.

Lim Yi Sheng watched as Xi Ana carefully unfolded the old letter from Cheng Ningxue. He may not have met Chen Ningxue when she was still alive but from time to time he would take this letter out and read it.

Perhaps he wanted to ask Cheng Ningxue what is the best thing to do for Samantha because isn't it that mother's knows best. He felt that if he read her letter over and over again he might find the answers he's been seeking for.

Samantha is still young and there are still so many things she could do, although it is her right to know everything about her family would this actually make her happy or it would simply make her life even more complicated?

From the moment Xi Ana started reading the contents of the letter, Lim Yi Sheng's eyes never left her which made it possible for him to observe even the smallest change in her facial expressions while reading the letter.

It only took a few minutes for Xi Ana to finish reading the letter and from her face, one could see different emotions. She neatly folded the letter and returned it inside the envelope before pushing it back in front of Lim Yi Sheng.

"Who else know about this?" Xi Ana asked this question with a tinge of concern in her voice.

They both know that if this is not handled properly and media got a hold of this news the person who will be most affected won't be Lim Yi Sheng nor the Lim Family but Samantha herself.

In this day and age, people could easily fabricate things and spread it online. It doesn't even matter what is the truth anymore because once these kinds of news ruined the person there is no way to redeem the feeling of not being hurt.

"Aside from you, only Lu Nai He knows about Samantha."

The less people know the better, he knew this very well that is why all the people who are taking care of Samantha only know very little about the entire situation and they are also made to sign confidentiality to avoid problems.

"From what I read, she has VSD? That's a congenital heart disease right? Ventricular Septal Defect. Where is she now?"

Seeing Xi Ana being concerned over the condition of Samantha's health first rather than her situation made Lim Yi Sheng happy and it means a lot to him. Samantha may not be his full blooded sister but she is nevertheless his sister and he cares for her.

"She's in San Francisco, America. In one of the overseas branch of Lu Nai He's hospital. We decided to let her stay there while growing since the medical technology there were what she needs for her condition. With proper care, she's actually better but that doesn't mean her condition is stable."

"What does that mean?" there was a frown on her face, Xi Ana does not have anyone close to her that has heart conditions like this that's why she didn't know the specifics of it.

"Actually in two weeks time she would undergo a heart transplant. The operation was supposed to be scheduled around the time when you were in City M but because she had a relapse that time it was postponed until she finally regained her health. Furthermore, we had to find another donor which is not easy."

Finding a donor for Samantha was really not an easy task that they even took a long time before finding the first donor but for the new donor thankfully it wasn't that long. He does not believe in luck but this time he did.

"That's sooner than I expected."

It's obvious that Xi Ana was surprised with it. Of course she would, she just learned about it Samantha a few minutes ago and now she was told that she is already about to take a transplant operation.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click <a href="#&apos;s-wife-has-a-secret_14496266906619705/dinner-(2)_50953664038232796">#&apos;s-wife-has-a-secret_14496266906619705/dinner-(2)_50953664038232796</a> for visiting.

"You will definitely be there right?"

"Yeah, I will." he is the only person who Samantha could rely on. If he's not there then she will really be left alone.

"Can I come with you?"

"Do you want to?"

He's been planning to tell her that he wanted her to meet Samantha, he's just trying to get the right timing that's why hearing this straight from Xi Ana surprised him a little.

"Yeah, I want to." 

"Alright but I will be going three days before the exact date of the operation to accompany her for a while. You don't have to be there for three days since I know you're busy and you might overwork again, you can go the day before the day of the operation. It's up to you to decide."

As much as he wanted her to be there with him if it means she will ruin her health just to finish a week worth of work, he would rather not.

"Even if you say that, I'll still try to do so and I might be able to free some time."

"It's the thought that counts."

"The thought sure counts but I still want to do more. I'm not pretending to be a kind person but that child is alone and she will already face such a big obstacle in her life, I've also lost my mother when I was very young so I know that there some things she wouldn't be able to tell you even if you're the closest person she has."

Hearing what's on he mind, he was surprised and he felt that he was a little bit insensitive. Her's and Samantha's circumstances may be a lot different but the fact that they grew up without the presence of their parents beside them are the same.
