"The reason I did not dare to come back for so many years was because I wanted to wait until I had the strength to win over them so that I could avenge this blood feud that I have and put them to shame...”
"But now, everything has actually turned out to be in this situation again..."
As Porter said this, he raised his head and looked at Sheldon with flushed red eyes that were filled with desperation as he cried out loud, "I really cannot understand... I really cannot figure it out, Uncle Sheldon... This kind of feeling feels as if I have lived the past twenty years of my life for nothing..."
Sheldon felt distressed when he heard this, and he could not help but burst into tears.
He could understand the multiple pain and grievance that Porter was feeling.
The hatred from back then, his failure today, and all of the misunderstandings behind this matter were tormenting Porter madly, making his life feel even worse than death.
So, Sheldon spoke up and comforted him, "Porter, you have to stop dwelling on the unpleasant things, accept the situation, and move on. Your parents' deaths have long been a foregone conclusion, and your efforts over the past twenty years were not all in vain. I've also
heard of Ten Thousand Annies’ reputation, and you have done a very good job. As long as you can clear up this misunderstanding with Mr. Wade and the Wade family as well as seek Mr. Wade’s forgiveness, your future is still limitless!"
As he spoke, Sheldon looked at Charlie as he pleaded, " Mr. Wade, please take Porter’s filial piety and the fact that he had suffered so much over the past twenty years into account and forgive him this time!"
