Chapter 624  Answers

Very calmly, he ate breakfast, and dropped his \'son\' at his grandmother\'s place.

For now, he didn\'t dare to act out of character.

But after leaving home, he stepped on the gas like a maniac, making his way to the one person who might be able to give him answers.

Platter, platter, platter~

The rains lashed against the windows as he entered the building, his footsteps echoing ominously in the empty halls.

When he reached his wife\'s room, she was sitting by the window, staring out at the rain-soaked landscape beyond. Her laughter was soft but unsettling when she saw him enter.

When seeing Clem Shi\'s appearance, Liana knew he finally believed. Now, he must have regretted it, right?

If he had trusted her more, they would have long eradicated that evil thing and go looking for their son!

"You look terrible," she remarked casually, her eyes glinting with a strange amusement.

Clem Shi sank into a chair opposite her, feeling weaker than ever. "Liana…" he spoke bitterly, regret evident in his tone. "I\'m sorry."

She turned to face him fully now, her expression shifting from amusement to something darker—something triumphant, yet pitiful. "I told you," she said slowly, savoring each word like a secret finally revealed. "It\'s not our baby."

He shook his head in disbelief. "What are you talking about?"

"Come on, Clem Shi, at this point, can\'t you be honest with yourself? No, you aren\'t going crazy." She leaned forward, her voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper that seemed to echo off the walls. "That child is.. I don\'t know what it is. An alien?," she said with chilling certainty. "Brother Shi, I don\'t know, but it has long told me that when the time\'s right, it will feed on us both."

"Feed?"

Clem Shi\'s heart drummed chaotically.

"Hold on, has it already began—"

Liana paused, a waterfall of tears now flowing on both sides of her face.

It said it would only start feeding on them after feeding on their baby. Soi if it has already begun on Clem Shi, then doesn\'t that mean their baby is gone?

Its all his fault! It was all his bloody fault!

What were their vows? To love and to protect, To believe and to trust even against all odds. Anyone who knows Liana, knows how important trust and belief are to her. She, Liana, doesn\'t lie. This is something those around her know very well. That\'s why she also fell in love with Clem Shi. He also did not tell lies. If he said the sky was green, it was green. But several nights ago, he did the unthinkable. He lied to her, and she believed it!

It\'s because of that momentarily lie that she wasn\'t able to kill that evil thing before it got to her son.

They say there\'s a thin line between love and hate.

Liana raised her head, staring at Clem Shi with glassy eyes that bore no soul to them. "Divorce…"

Clem Shi recoiled at Liana\'s words, shock, guilt, regret, and pain very evident on his tearful face. "Liana, what do you-"

"I said I want a Divorce!"

*************************

Life, they say, was sometimes scarier than fiction.

Have you ever seen a psychotic patient asking for a divorce? Especially after she was the one who attempted to kill someone?

Where is that seen?

"Mr. Shi, don\'t worry, your wife is in good hands."

"Yes, Mr. Shi. I\'m happy that you took the liberty of going along with her weird cooked up imagination to make her feel happy. However, we must keep indulging these fantasies, or it will be very detrimental to her in the long run."

"As for her mentioning wanting a divorce, I don\'t think she really understands what she\'s saying. Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

"Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah~"

The doctor spoke excessively about this and that, but Clem Shi tuned everything off.

He stumbled out of the asylum, his mind a whirlpool of confusion and dread. Liana\'s words echoed in his ears, a haunting refrain: <Evil child…. Feeding off you…. Little Hai might be dead…Divorce> That was the summary of all that went down.

Indeed, Clem Shi felt it was his fault.

What sort of father doesn\'t recognize their own son? Liana had long recognized that the baby wasn\'t hers months ago even before it started showing her signs. However, look at the time that he is realizing that the child isn\'t his. Hois wife is now locked up, and the evil thing is now living with him, feeding and draining him off day by day.

Looking at the sky, Clem Shi found that he didn\'t know where to go or what to do from here. Lost, would be the accurate word to describe his current state.

The rain had stopped, leaving the streets slick and glistening under the streetlights. He wandered aimlessly, his thoughts a tangled mess of fear and disbelief.

This wasn\'t the town he and Liana lived in, but a neighboring city just an hour and a half away. The asylum was here.

Looking at his car, Clem Shi wasn\'t in the mood to drive. He feared that if he did, he might get into an accident, especially with Liana\'s frightful words still ringing in his ears.

"Watch it here, buddy… are you blind or something?"

"Hey! Hey! Who crosses the street on a red light? Do you have a death wish or something?"

"Sorry, sorry." Clem Shi could only apologize.

As he walked, he found himself in an unfamiliar part of the city. Here, the air was thick with the scent of incense, and the dim glow of neon signs flickered overhead. Just as he was about to turn back, a voice called out to him from the shadows.

"Dead man walking, you seek answers… So why don\'t you come in for a bit?"

Stepping closer to the booth, he saw a stunning young woman chuckling with a hint of mystery behind her gaze. The booth said \'The Fruit Store\', and even had some juicy fruits displayed. However, he felt there might be more to it than what meets the eye.

"Young man, why don\'t I tell you your fortune for free?"
