“Do you remember the last time we sat together and watched the stars all over the sky?”

“Do you remember the last time we leaned against each other and poured out our hearts towards each other?”

“Do you know how women like us tide over without you?”

“Do you know that you are also the father of Andre and the other kids besides being our husband. Do you know they always urged to celebrate a birthday together with you, to celebrate the new year festival with you, to have a snowball fight with you, to go sledding with you, even have you coax them to go to bed? Over these years, have you fulfilled the responsibility of a father? Have you really cared about us? Do you even love us or not?”

O’Laura said with tears as her questions and denouncement were as sharp as sabers and swords for Zhang Tie. As a result, Zhang Tie’s face gradually turned pale; however, he couldn’t refute.

“Do you know my feeling after coming to Taixia Country? Olina, Sabrina and I are like widows who lie on gold coins inside a steel castle every day. As long as we leave the castle that you built for us, we would see strange looks from people in black hair and eyes. We don’t have partners here; nor do we have clansmen. We don’t feel free. Even you were not on our side. Do you remember our smiles? Do you remember how long it has been since Olina and Sabrina poured out their hearts towards you? Peter, you’ve changed since you promoted to a knight. You’re moving increasingly farther away from us. You don’t need us in your world anymore. We have been not that important in your world. What we could do for you now could be easily replaced by more people...”

“I...”

O’Laura put her finger on Zhang Tie’s lip to stop him from talking as she continued, “I know you want to say it’s not your original intention. Previously, we thought we could really stay with you after coming to Taixia Country from Ice and Snow Wilderness like before. We could live together and face all the difficulties together. However, now, we know that we’re wrong. Yes, it’s you who’s protecting us from being killed. You have Andre and the others kids learn the most powerful battle skills and provide them with the best education and the best teacher; however, by doing all these, you just want to keep us alive... O’Laura watched Zhang Tie with sad, despairing eye light as she grew a bit thrilled, “Stay alive. Do you know? You just want to keep us alive. However, that’s the least demand for people in this world. None of us would like to live in this way, whether it’s Olina, Sabrina or I. Do you know that Alexander, Andrew and the others were also bullied by other kids outside? Do you know how many fights have they had with other kids these years? Do you know that one day Andrew suddenly asked me, ‘Mom, why is dad not with us and left us here alone? Why would we stay in this place being full of strangers? Why not return to Ice and Snow Wilderness?” O’Laura shook her head as she said painfully, “I really don’t know how to answer him. Could I tell him that it’s just for keeping us alive and preventing ourselves from being killed by bad guys by his dad...”

“O’Laura, you’re right. I’m not a good husband or father. I only consider my own feelings; instead, I ignore the feelings of you and our kids. I don’t know how sad you are over these years. However, please believe me, I’m the very one like before. As long as all these pass by, I will compensate for you!” Zhang Tie said excitedly as he seized O’Laura’s hand.

“You will; however, not like how you imagine!” O’Laura shook her head decisively as she added, “You would grow more and more powerful. As a shadow knight, you would promote to a heavenly knight, a semi-sage level knight, even a sage-level knight, even above all the others knights one day. Iron-Dragon Sect would grow more and more powerful. Jinwu Palace would also become the number one sect in Taixia Country. Even if you don’t want to change, this world, those people around you, your friends and your enemies like demons would push you towards it. By accepting it, your heart would stay farther and farther away from us and we would have little chance to give you a hand. We would grow more and more unimportant like the decorations at your home. When you recall us, you would have dinner with us and make love with us; you would care about our kids and throw a pile of items to us before leaving us. You would pay more attention to those which are more important for you, rather than us. Olina, Sabrina and Matyr could already see clearly how we will live in one decade, two decades even 1 century. That’s not what we want. We don’t just want to stay alive. If we’re destined to be the passers-by in your life, we hope you could still have a sweet memory of us after 100 years even longer. Hopefully, you could still recall the nice days you spent with us by then; instead of letting us gradually be the decorations at your home, watching us gradually losing our light and turning old, even being forgotten by you!”

O’Laura’s words gradually aroused an unfortunate feeling from Zhang Tie. Therefore, Zhang Tie uttered in a slightly quivering voice, “What...what do you want?”

“We’ve already reached an agreement to leave you and Taixia Country. We’re going back to Ice and Snow Wilderness. As for us, female Slave, Ice and Snow Wilderness is our hometown. We could really feel that we’re not just staying alive only there!”

“No, never!” Zhang Tie turned green as he roared like an injured wild beast. Eyes red, he tightly grasped O’Laura as he denied decisively, “I would not have you leave me and return to Ice and Snow Wilderness. That’s too precarious!”

Wiping out her tears, O’Laura watched Zhang Tie calmly, “Do you think someone in Western Continent dares find trouble in Ice and Snow Wilderness?”

“And demons?”

“Demons want to hurt us because they might think that we’re very important for you. I’ve already made a plan with O’Laura. As long as you coordinate with us, we would become unimportant for you. Even if we leave you, nobody would find us trouble. Even if we met dangers in the future, we would bear it willingly...”

O’Laura’s words gave a heavy blow to Zhang Tie...
