The yard was full of plum trees. Although during the other seasons they were just trunks, once winter came, the fragrance of plum blossoms would fill the whole garden.
"These trees seem to be planted according to some patterns." Tracey found that the plum trees were dense somewhere while sparking somewhere else.
"My mother lived in that room. From that angle of view, when the plum flower bloomed in winter, it was a pattern of a heart." Adam said.
"Your father was so sweet." Tracey praised again.
"Yes, he cares about my mother. If he knows what she likes, he will buy it especially to please her. If he was born in ancient times, he must be the stupid emperor who abandoned the country because of beauty addiction." Adam said.
"Two months later, it will snow. Let's come back to see the plum blossoms, okay? I began to look forward to the blooming. The plum trees in a heart pattern, so romantic." Tracey said.
"If you like it, I can order people to plant plum trees in our yard. Except for the plum blossoms, we can have peach blossom, pear blossom, and apricot blossoms. As long as you like, I can plant all of them." Adam turned around and held Tracey in his arms.
"But I just want to be with you. The happiest thing of mine was to be with you." Tracey hugged Adam too.
"Adam, in fact, your father is not as bad as we thought. He just didn't fall in love with your mom at the right time." Tracey smiled slightly and said.
"It's not the case, little bunny. It's not he loved my mom at the wrong time. He loved my mother, but my mom didn't love him.
Never ever. If my mom loved him, she wouldn' t care about his age, identity, or background, but she didn't, she only regarded my father as an elder or a like-minded friend.
She was respectful and grateful to him, but no love within her emotion. However, my father selfishly wanted to occupy her.
He gave her precious jewelry, high- end customized dresses, and a lot of gifts which were made based on her preferences, while all my mother wanted was just freedom.
Do you think this was called love? Do you think to love someone was to imprison her? If he finally gave freedom back to my mom, I will never hate him like this. It was him, and the people of the Sheng family forced my mom to kill herself.
Adam hugged Tracey tightly, and there was a touch of pain in his eyes. Tracey felt his trembling, knowing it was the biggest shadow in Adam's heart.
She couldn't imagine how Adam came here when she didn't by his sides. He carried a painful past, at the same time, he had to witness her love with Sean.
Even if Adam had power and status, these things only made him more indifferent and lonely.
She still remembered that she ran into his arms in the Xia Castle three years ago. His breath was so cold. Perhaps it was because of the dark memory.
Tracey kept embracing him. "It's all over, Adam. I will accompany you in the future. I won't leave.
Just let the past passed, from now on, no one can destroy our love, don't worry, okay? How about stopping the revenge on the Sheng family, and try to let it go? Let's live a peaceful life in the future, okay?"
Tracey didn't make a pitch for the Sheng family. She did this all because she pitied Old Master Sheng's careful consideration for Adam, and more importantly, she cared about Adam.
She didn't want Adam to bear the heavy past any longer. She hoped that he could get rid of hatred and shadow and stop torturing himself.
"Little bunny, do you know that? There was a time in the winter, they framed me for stealing earrings. Several adults pressed me in the snow while the old man was not at home.
It was under this plum tree. The plum flower was in full bloom that year, and the color looked as if the snow was dyed with blood.
