Chapter 461 He Was the Light of Her Dark Life

Chapter 461 He Was the Light of Her Dark Life"Thank you for telling me all these." Bright said to Serena gratefully.
Even as Marley's brother, Bright didn't know what Serena told him.
He thought it was a good thing that he came across Serena, because he learned important information
from her, including who his brother loved and the teacher that his brother met before having an
accident.
For all these years, he never believed his brother would commit suicide by jumping from a building.
In Bright's mind, Marley was a gentle and cultivated person, with smiling eyes. Many girls would be
attracted by his gentleness.
The firstborn and illegitimate daughter of the Kim family, Serena, was one of them.
Since her childhood, Serena hadn't got much love from her parents, because she was a girl and an
illegitimate daughter.
Her mother died after she was born. She had lived in an orphanage for 13 years before her father
brought her home. The Kim family didn't care too much about her because she didn't grow up in the
family. Feeding one more child didn't bother them. They just couldn't bear being laughed at for having a
child as an orphan.
Compared to Serena, Lina, who grew up in the Kim family, had a totally different life. She got all the
attention from the family members.
If Lina was a flower showered in sunshine, then Serena was a weed growing up in the dark side.
Serena was extremely nervous when she first participated in a banquet in the age of ten. She was
afraid of being laughed at for making mistakes.But fortunately, she met Marley, dressed in a white suit, who walked in her life like Prince Charming.
This outstanding man didn't mind she was an illegitimate daughter and even defended her when other
rich men bullied her, calling her an ugly duckling and a bumpkin.
He handed her a handkerchief so that she could wiped stain and tears.
She said thanks to him with a smile.
His eyebrows danced. He said, "You're welcome. Don't let them bother you. They are not real bad
guys. They are just spoiled. I have scolded them. They won't bully you again."
"Really?" Serena clenched the handkerchief, still worried.
"If they bully you again, you can ask them to come to me." Marley looked at her with encouragement.
Looking at his sparkling eyes, Serena chose to believe him. "What's your name?" she asked.
"I'm Marley." He used his attracting lips to spit out his name.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Serena." She finally smiled.
"I got it." Though Marley had heard that the Kim family brought the illegitimate daughter back, it was the
first time that she showed up in public and that he met her. "You have a beautiful smile. You should
smile more."
At first sight, maybe Serena wasn't a beauty. She was simple but elegant, with a clean image.
She was like a white daisy that wasn't eye-catching but still could attract people to appreciate.
"Good." Being with such a gentle person like Marley, Serena smiled more heartily.Then, Marley left. Serena looked at his white figure becoming farther and farther. She closed her eyes
and smelt the handkerchief that he gave her. It had the smell of orchids. It was the smell that belonged
to him.
It was fair to say that Marley was the light of her dark life, bringing brightness to her.
Deep inside, she knew she didn't deserve him, who was the firstborn son of the Lee family. So, she hid
her affection in her heart and she never thought of having him.
It was enough for her to watch him out and away. His being happy was what she wanted.
She never imagined Marley would have the accident.
She couldn't believe such a perfect man would encounter this. She was hit hard, almost crying her
heart out.
Later, she was forced to marry into another rich family and left City J. She came back to City J recently
and visited Marley as soon as she arrived.
"I truly hope your brother can get well soon and be vigorous like he used to be. I can't imagine what it
will be like if he lied in the bed in the rest of his life." Her heart hurt when it came to the pale and
emaciated man.
If sacrificing her life could enable him to get better, she would be willing to do so and wouldn't regret.
"I also hope the same. But the doctor wasn't optimistic about it since my brother doesn't have the will to
survive. He doesn't want to wake up probably because he doesn't want to face something." The
doctor's analysis came to Bright's mind. "It's necessary to have a reason for him to wake up. Maybe
someday he will figure out by himself and wake up."
Of course it was Bright's wishful thinking. They knew the chance was slim deep inside.novelbinRose stretched out and held Bright's hand, comforting him with this voiceless move.
"I'm fine." Bright looked at Rose who was looking at him and found her feeling sad for himself. "Marley
has been sleeping for so many years. I have already accepted it."
Serena looked down with sadness. She even felt pain when she breathed.
Marley was their wounds in the hearts.
"We have already talked about all that we knew. All dishes are served. Let's start eating." Rose looked
at the delicious dishes on the table, asking Doris, "Honey, I bet you're hungry."
"Yep." Doris nodded and said to Bright and Serena in her childish tone, "Dad, Aunt Serena, these
dishes look delicious. I will have them all if you don't eat."
"Good girl. I will eat." Serena recovered from her sadness.
"You little greedy girl, aren't you afraid of gaining weight for eating too much?" Bright tapped his
daughter's nose.
"Dad, I'm growing up. It's necessary to eat more. You are torturing me if you don't let me eat and be
full." Doris held up her chest and talked back to Bright.
"You're right. Just eat as much as you can." Bright laughed out loud and served Doris a bowl of crucian
carp soup. "Have a bowl of soup before you eat food."
"You're the best dad ever." Doris gave Bright thumps up.
Then, Bright served Rose and Serenaa bowl of crucian carp soup respectively and served himself at
last.Bright was the only man here, so it was natural for him, as a gentleman, to take care of the ladies.
Serena's phone suddenly rang at the end of the meal. Her face turned pale when she saw the phone
number. She didn't answer it and hung up.
Bright and Rose both noticed the change in her face. Her eyes didn't have the smile anymore. Only
fear was left in her eyes.
"What happened?" Bright asked her with concern.
"Nothing happened." Serena shook her head. "I should go."
Bright guessed something happened to her, but it wasn't appropriate for him to ask specifically since
she didn't want to tell.
He stood up and dressed up his suit. "Let me drive you home."
