As the mother and daughter sat opposite each other in the kitchen, DX made them some tea to warm them up. Even though it was impossible, he tried his best to keep his presence minimum so that they could talk openly.
While she stirred the milk into her cup of tea, Kai Xin said, "Mum, one more thing…"
"Yeah…"
She exchanged glances with DX. He knew that she wanted to be alone with her mother and nodded. Before he left, he placed a kiss on her forehead and murmured, "I love you…I'll just be right outside."
Kai Xin waited for him to leave the room before turning back to her mother. With a nervous tone, she stuttered, "I...I aborted a child before…"
"What?" gasped An Qi Yan. She had just wiped off her tears from before when Kai Xin told her the news and her eyes soon welled up again. Placing a hand over her heart, she wondered how many more secrets that her daughter was holding back from her.
