Chapter 448 - Bai Fen Confesses The Truth
"Mum, what do you mean it's your fault? You didn't do anything wrong, the Fu family offended us first! I was supposed to get married to Brother Fu, but he got married to someone else, while I was busy harboring and growing my feelings for him! Who landed me in this state?!." Bai Jun asked angrily.
Bai Jun was angered every time she thought about this fact. As a little girl, while growing up, she had her own fair share of fantasies, and one of her fantasies was to get married to Fu Hua. But after she left the country to further her studies, those fantasies slowly died but didn't die off completely.
Now when her mother called her to tell her that she would be getting married to Fu Hua and their marriage had already been arranged, those feelings for Fu Hua she forgot existed, slowly started to rekindle.
Every day, Bai Jun would fantasize about a different scene with Fu Hua in her head, and that was how her love for him, grew to be very strong and unshakable, and that was the reason she still wanted to be with him after she found out that he was already married.
Bai Jun has always thought that Fu Hua and the Fu family toiled with her feelings and emotions, and that was why she tried to get revenge on them after she failed to get Fu Hua's attention, without knowing that everything was her mother's fault.
Bai Fen's eyes became teary again. She was tired of letting others take the blame for her greed, cunning acts, and foolishness, so she decided to spill the whole truth about their marriage with Fu Hua back then.
"Fu Hee talked about Fu Hua settling down soon since she was worried about him still being single at his age back then... an idea came to me to get you married into the Fu family, so I deliberately mentioned you getting married immediately after coming back to the country... I mentioned all your achievements and every good thing about you in a bid to get Fu Hee to talk about you getting married to Fu Hua since you were single, and I planned on settling you down as I didn't mind your age. My plans worked and... before Fu Hee could get home that day, Old Mr. Fu had already arranged for Fu Hee and Jia Li to get married, and totally rejected the union between you two when Fu Hee mentioned it..."
Bai Fen went on to explain everything that really went on. She talked about how she washed Fu Hee's brain, so she could keep supporting her in trying to get her (Bai Jun) and Fu Hua to be together despite Fu Hua already being married.
Bai Fen explained everything, including the part where Fu Hee lost her title and was almost thrown out of the Fu family because of her, and down till the point Fu Hee gave up on the matter.
It was truly a shock to Bai Jun to learn about the other side of the story. She was beyond shocked to the point that she couldn't even speak again.
All this while Bai Jun had been blaming and hating on the members of the Fu family for toiling with her emotions, she didn't know her dearest mother was the Genesis of everything, and as she said earlier, she was at fault. If she didn't let greed get over her, none of her (Bai Jun) actions would have happened, and she wouldn't be locked in jail.
Although Bai Jun still liked Fu Hua a lot before the marriage with him came up, she wouldn't have had hatred for Jia Li or the members of the Fu family if the marriage talk wasn't mentioned and she finds out Fu Hua was married when she returned to China.
The only thing Bai Jun would have done if the situation went this way, was that she would only be jealous of Bai Jun in her mind, and that's all, no hatred would be attached. But since the marriage between her and Fu Hua was brought up to her by her mother, she invested her emotions into Fu Hua but got disappointed at the end, and that was what led to her present actions.
"Mum, are you really trying to say that you brought this upon me?." Bai Jun asked with a stupefied gaze. She just wanted to wake up from the terrible dream if possible. It was really hard for her to believe that her mother was the genesis of all her problems.
Now that she thought hard about it, she could no longer refute that her mother, also had her own ideas with her getting married to Fu Hua because she always supported her even while she was wrong with her actions and feelings.
'Which mother will support her daughter loving another woman's husband, and having ideas of getting married to him?' Bai Jun thought with a horrified gaze on her mother.
Staring into her daughter's eyes, Bai Fen was able to see the blame, anguish, disappointment, and hatred that were slowly building up in Bai Jun's sight. Bai Fen became afraid of Bai Jun's reaction.
Bain Fen stretched her hands to clasp Bai Jun's, but the latter flung her hands away.
"Don't touch me! Mum, how could you be this cruel to me? You fueled my emotions, your hurt my feelings and emotions, you destroyed me, and you finally sent me to prison, what did I ever do wrong to you?!" Bai Jun asked as she clutched her chest.
She was so hurt by the revelation, that she was starting to feel pains in her heart. She couldn't believe her own mother led her to her current state.
"Jun, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I only wanted the best for you at that time." Bai Fen said with a tone of regret. How could she not regret her actions after seeing how much her daughter was suffering?
"Is the best you wanted for me now good enough for you?.'" Bai Jun asked while pointing at her current state. She had messy hair, dry skin, chapped lips, rough palms, visible scars on her face, and she smelled. So Bai Jun was asking her if she was satisfied with her current condition.
