A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure

Chapter 338: Stop Joking Around

Kanna loosens up and yowls at his shoulder. Even the butler is touched.

Antony's heart aches, and he keeps patting her back to placate her.

After Kanna is done crying, Antony takes her inside the house to sit down, asking sadly, "Little girl,

where have you been these past twenty years? Why did you end up like this?"

Kanna wipes away her tears and whispers, "I went to a banquet with Armand one time to persuade the

organizers to invest in a project. I bumped into Burnell and Krislier there...."

Antony frowns. "The Krislier family in Country Y?"

Kanna nods.

She tells Antony everything, including why she has come to Yorkshire, and how she secretly met up

with Louis several times after the blood clots in her brain was removed and she regained her

memories.

Antony smashes his cup heavily on the coffee table and is so angry that he trembles. "This is simply

too much! If I had continued to investigate and found out the Krisliers were behind this, I would have

put up a desperate fight with them!"

The coffee table is smashed into pieces, and the ground is covered with fragments.

Kanna is afraid he would hurt himself riled up at his age. She quickly comforts him, "Dad, it's fine.

Everything is over. Your health comes first."

Antony looks at her with tears streaming down his cheeks. "Little girl, Dad is sorry. If I had ... I was

obsessed with getting Louis back and making the Smith Group stronger...."

Kanna shakes her head. "Dad, don't say that. I know you had no choice. Even if you had found out

about the truth, I still wouldn't have let you look for me no matter what."

Antony holds her hands and sighs.

Kanna doesn't want him to worry about her, so she changes the topic, "Dad, where's Armand?"

Antony glances at her and finds it hard to break it to her. "He is...."

Nervous, Kanna asks, "Burnell attacked him?"

Antony says sorrowfully, "Armand called me to look for him, but when I got there, I found he... had shot

himself, in front of Louis, no less."

Kanna widens her eyes, thinking that he is joking.

"He might know you were taken away by Burnell and felt desperate because he couldn't save you, so

he...." As Antony says these words, his heart aches unbearably.

"No, no...," Kanna mutters and can't believe it. "Burnell promised me he wouldn't touch him. How could

he die? He can't be dead...."

Antony hates to see her like this, but he has to say, "Little girl, it's true. I can't lie to you. Louis saw his

father committed suicide and was frightened. He almost lost his mind. I was afraid something would

happen to him, so I had someone hypnotize him. Fortunately, he was fine and grew up to be just as

great as his father."

Kanna covers her face and cries bitterly, tears rolling down her fingers. She is devastated.

She thought after all that she had suffered, her husband and son would be fine. However, this is the

cruel news she has to digest after she recovered her memories.

"How could he leave me?" Kanna sobs and feels hopeless. "Then what's the point of me suffering for

so long? I might as well die!"

"Don't say such foolish words, girl." Antony comforts her, "I thought you were all dead and my hair

turned gray. You don't know how happy I am to see you alive. Louis will be happy, too."

"Dad, don't!" Kanna grips Antony's hands and begs, "Just treat me as dead. Don't tell him. He's

suffered enough."

"You're his mother...."

Kanna shakes her head and sobs, "He has grown up and his life is great. I can't be happier. I don't

want him to know about those things. Please, don't tell him."

Antony's heart aches for her. "He can understand you. Are you okay with just watching him from afar?"

Kanna keeps shaking her head.

Antony feels he is in no position to decide for her. Just as he is about to say something, the door is

opened. Louis steps in and sees them in a glance.

Kanna glances at him and panics, but there is nowhere for her to hide.

Louis' eyes darken a little, but he takes off his coat and hands it to the servant. After changing his

shoes, he enters the living room and stares at Kanna.

"Louis, why are you here?" Antony greets him and wants to take him away. "You must be hungry. I'm

hungry too. Let's eat."

"That has to wait." Louis stands upright and looks at Kanna, saying coldly, "Is she your guest?"

Antony nods. "Right, she is. We were just done talking. She's leaving!"

Louis frowns. "Then why is she crying?"

"Well, that's...." Antony is lost for words. Then he comes up with something, "Actually, she is from a Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

sales company. She demanded too much, and I scolded her too harshly."

Kanna dries her tears and gets up from the sofa. "Mr. Smith, I'm sorry to bother you...."

She is in a hurry to leave, but Louis grabs her arm.

"I recognize your voice." Louis looks at her gloomily. "You called Lily and said your name was Kanna.

You are John's mother."

"You heard wrongly. I'm not." Kanna forces a smile and lowers her voice.

Louis sneers coldly, "My hearing is fine! Why did you come here? Did John ask you to?"

Kanna does not dare to say anything. She wants to break free from Louis and leave, but her arm is

tightly grabbed by him.

"Alright, Louis, let go," Antony orders. He ignores Kanna's pleading eyes and sighs, "She's your

mother."

Louis is shocked.

He looks at Kanna and asks the old man uncertainly, "You want to marry her?"

Antony glares at him and says angrily, "Nonsense. She is your real mother! Also, I am your grandfather.

It's time for you to address us differently."

"..."

Louis loosens his grip on Kanna and pinches on the spot between his eyebrows. "Dad, stop joking."

His fiancé has run away with another man, so he is in a bad mood.

"I'm not messing with you." Antony's expression is solemn. He tells Louis everything despite that Kanna

tries to stop him.

Kanna covers her mouth and silently weeps.

Louis stands there and listens. Gradually, his expression turns cold. He looks scary, and the room is

invaded by chilliness.

Finishing the story, Antony sighs guiltily, "I'm sorry to your father. If I had brought all of you back, none

of this crap would have happened."

Louis says calmly, "I saw a DNA test. I'm not related to you."

"I know your fourth brother is investigating the matter, so I had the test altered," Antony says, "I didn't

know what to say to you if you saw it."

Louis' hands clench against his trousers.

He looks at Kanna, who is still crying, and says, "Is this true, or are you and John playing tricks on

me?"

Kanna doesn't know what to say. After a long while, she stammers.

"I'm sorry."

Antony can't help but say, "It's not your mother's fault. Don't blame her, Louis...."

Louis isn't angry or anything, but he looks gloomy. He ignores Antony and calls to ask Justin to come

over.
