Stealing Your Heart Chapter 290

Lin Xinyan was utterly shocked to hear what her mother had just disclosed.

Zhuang Zijin pulled her hand at once, “Yan… “

Lin Xinyan pushed her mother’s hand away. She stood up and retreated from her mother. Her lips shivered with anger, “Have you forgotten that he had forced you to sign a divorce while you were pregnant? He then sent you overseas, not caring whether you could die or would live. You are telling me that you are prepared to remarry him?”

“Yes, I agree that he was very bad. But after so many years, he has mended his ways. He has frequently approached me, regretting what he had done…”

“And you believe him?” Lin Xinyan interrupted her mother angrily. She scratched her head in disbelief.

“Mom, how could you have fallen for his sweet talk? You must remember, he’d jilted you. He’d also jilted Shen Siuqing. He’s just a heartless person. How could you believe his sweet words?”

Zhuang Zijin was unmoved. She lowered her head, “My decision is final.”

Lin Xinyan leaned against the wall, staring at her mother. “So, this is what you’d wanted to inform me of today?”

“Sort of, yes!”

“I know that.” Zhuang Zijin walked nearer to her daughter, intending to touch her daughter’s hands. Nonetheless, her gesture was rejected, once again..

Lin Xinyan turned away, reluctant to look at her mother.

Zhuang Zijin withdrew her hands, fingers curving back in disappointment. “Anyway, I have made my decision.”

There was no room for rebuttal. Lin Xinyan’s objection was uncompromising. This gave her mother no other option, “I am moving out today.”

“Why the rush?” Lin Xinyan was baffled. She could not stand her mother being so forgiving.

“Have you forgotten about Xinqi?” Though Lin Xinyan had loathed mentioning this name, she had hoped that it might persuade her mother to reconsider the matter.

Zhuang Zijin was overwhelmed with sadness upon hearing the mention of her deceased son. She could not forget him. It was for this reason that she had wanted to remarry Lin Guoan. It made her feel guilty towards Lin Xinyan.

“We have got our marriage certificate already,” continued Zhuang Zijin.

Lin Xinyan wiped her face and smiled with disappointment. “You have already made up your mind, haven’t you?” She took a deep breath, “As a daughter, I know that I have no right to criticize your decision. You should’ve at least asked for my opinion. After all, we have depended on each other for so many years.”

“I am sorry.” Zhuang Zijin had failed to come up with any other reason.

“You don’t have to apologize. This is your matter; it’s none of my business. Do what you like.” Disgusted, Lin Xinyan waved her hands in the air. She could not stay there anymore. She had feared that she would fall into a craze, saying offensive things.

“Yan…”

“That’s enough.” Lin Xinyan staggered out of her mother’s bedroom.

She could not accept Zhuang Zijin’s decision. In light of Zhuang Zijin’s firmness, she knew that there was nothing that she could do to change her mind.

There was a glass of plain water. She gulped it down, shivering upon its coolness. She remained baffled as to why her mother had decided as such.

You should have known that Lin Guoan is a surefire trap. Why are you still walking right into it?

“Why?” Lin Xinyan put her hands on the table to support her upper body that had begun to slant slightly.
