Chapter 314 Edison’s Miserable Childhood

Edison smiled and said slowly, “When I was very young, I wandered around, and basically stayed in each place for a short time.”

“Why?” Ziana didn’t know about Edison’s past, she asked in confusion and slightly frowned, “Aren’t you from the Western Royalty?”

Edison was moved when she watched him with such concern.

When he spoke again, there was a slight sense of loss and sadness in his voice. But he forced a faint smile on his face, “Ziana, you probably don’t know that I am not of orthodox royal blood. In fact, I’m an illegitimate child.

“My mother is not the daughter of a royal minister, nor is she a lady of a wealthy family. She is just a lowly but good-looking dancer. According to her, she met my father when she was dancing in a club. My father came to see her dance for a month, spent a lot of money on her, and bought her various gifts, jewelry, and flowers, so she fell in love with my father like this.

“At that time, she thought it was love, fantasized about meeting her prince charming, and even started to quit her job, and get married. But on the day she found out she was pregnant, she returned to her place full of joy and wanted to tell my father the news at that time. But my father did not come back that night.

“He didn’t come back not only that night, but he didn’t come back for a month after that. My mother refused to believe that my father played with her feelings. So she waited until her belly became bigger and gave birth to me. But he still didn’t come back. Only then did she realize that she might have really been played with.

“She was unable to work after she became pregnant. So for nearly two years, her expenses were all based on the savings she had saved before. When the savings were almost used, she had to go to work. She was dancing in a bar in Canrro. She said that she would only get the salary in the second month, which means she would have to work for two months before she could get her first salary.

“But we had to live. I still had to eat milk powder at that time. So she had to go to the steward of the bar to borrow money. The steward lent her money, and she was very grateful. After she got her salary, she went to pay the steward but was told to pay back the money and the amount of interest. The steward saw her as a woman with a child, no background, no backing, easy to bully, and deliberately bullied her.

“In this way, my mother began to owe debts. The debts became more and more. The money she earned from dancing only left a few hundred a month to live, and all the money was not enough for the debts. Later, they asked my mother to do something illegal. After they were rejected, they would beat, scold, and humiliate her in the name of debt

collection.

“My mother had to run away with me, so we moved from Canrro to Auroria. When I grew up, we lived in Auroria.

“We lived in a small basement of less than ten square meters. The environment in the basement was harsh. There

were different people living in the basement. There were beatings, scolding, and crying every day. Sometimes on the

way back, we were stepping on blood, because there were debt collectors chasing others. They chased them here, and

they didn’t care about the lives in order to get money. My mother said that sometimes when she looked at them, she was afraid that one day she would die under the sticks of debt collectors.

“My mother didn’t expect that the debt collectors were very powerful, and they chased us in a short time. So we had to run away again. We left Auroria, went to Sepun, and then went to Valoria. It was better before because I was able to

help to do some work, and sometimes I made some money.

“Finally, at the age of ten, I was found by my father and brought back to Wesbruck, and my life was considered to be

on the right track.”

When Edison said this, he sighed and smiled immediately.

He looked at Luke. His tone was still gentle, “So, Luke asked me where I grew up. I can only say that I grew up wandering around.”

“Edison…” Ziana called him with a little distress, “I’m sorry.”

She had a happy childhood and she was pampered. She never knew what was a hard life since she was a child.

After listening to Edison’s narration at this moment, she only felt sad.

She felt sorry for his premature experience of the badness of human nature and the bitterness and hardship of life.

She appreciated that even though he had suffered all the filth, he still grew up so well and was so gentle.

It was easy for people to become kind and friendly in a kind and friendly environment.

However, in an extremely evil environment, he had become kind and friendly. This was a rare quality and a precious mind.

Edison sensed the distress in Ziana’s tone. His eyes flickered, and he quickly smiled and said, “Don’t sympathize with me. I think Go d is fair to me. After the suffering is rewarding. Isn’t it just rewarding me now?.

“Although I had a hard childhood, those are all in the past. Now that I have you, I feel very happy.” He blinked and looked at her affectionately. His voice was soft, “Aren’t you still here by my side? As long as you are with me, I don’t feel sorry for myself.”

Ziana thought it was weird, but she couldn’t figure out why. But it was just uncomfortable.

“Puff.”

Boris’ voice rang out gracefully, first with a mocking sneer, and then with an undisguised mocking laugh.

His laughter was abrupt and piercing. He lazily looked up and down at Edison.

Not to mention that Edison felt uncomfortable, even Ziana felt that he was provocative.

Just as Ziana was about to speak, Edison couldn’t help asking, “Mr. Lewis, what are you laughing at?”

Boris said bluntly, “I’m laughing at you.”

Edison laughed, “Why are you laughing at me?”

“I’m laughing at you being such a man, it’s quite funny to chase women and still use the trick of being miserable.” He glanced at Edison, “Even though you are miserable, in the end, you still try to threaten her. What do you mean as long as you are with her, so you don’t feel sorry for yourself? It’s her choice whether she wants to accompany you or not. You don’t have to use these words to influence her, as if it’s her fault if she doesn’t accompany you. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

“She doesn’t owe you anything. And she didn’t cause your poor childhood. Even if she doesn’t accompany you, you

can’t blame her.”

“I didn’t!” Edison said coldly, “I just mentioned the past and expressed my feelings. I couldn’t control my emotions

for a while. It’s Mr. Lewis who always thinks that human nature is too bad and mean!”

Boris replied unceremoniously, “There is such a game in the world. Use one’s misery and misfortune to dominate the other party to obtain an unequal place in the interpersonal relationship. Through one’s own disadvantage or false disadvantage, let oneself occupy social advantage, making yourself a character who can’t be offended, who needs to

be noticed and coaxed.

“What you said just now is just a way to play with others, to attract their attention.”

“I didn’t!” Edison said angrily, the red mole looked extra coquettish because of this.

Boris h**ked his lips mockingly, “But you get her sympathy and pity, don’t you?”
