ask looked at her but didn't know what to say.It was past 4 AM; in a few hours, the sky would be bright...Wu Shuang wasn’t nervous at all. Suddenly, the Skull Mask recalled something and said, "Right,...The CEO's Substitute Ex-Wife Complete Chapter 667

Seeing this, he could no longer bear to watch, with a phrase ringing in his mind at all times.

If it were me, even if Kaka only had one second left, I would want him to sincerely say that he loves me. In the long life ahead, having that one sentence would be my greatest comfort and happiness.

In the long life ahead, is this truly your happiness

Without equal, my unparalleled one.

How could you write such heart-wrenching lines Is this truly what's in your heart, your cry out

Kaka was devastated to his core, covering his face with the pillow that still carried her scent, hiding all the sorrow and tears. The pain of his heart, he had tasted it countless times over the years, but never before had it been so sharp.

It felt like a knife cutting through his heart, leaving nowhere to escape.

He trapped himself in this world, unable to extricate himself, letting the pain seep into every part of his body.

"Invincible..." A hoarse murmur escaped from his mouth, calling out the name of the person he loves over and over again. His heart was bleeding, wishing he could shrink into a place where no one could see him, thus escaping the constant pain.

That sentence made all his efforts in the past dozen years crumble.

"I love you... I love you... I love you..." Always knowing what you want and always knowing what I want, but never daring to take it. Not because I don’t love you, but simply because I love you too much to bear the thought of hurting you.

Can I tell you all the love that I owe you

Would you be happier if you heard me

Kaka had experienced countless heartaches before, yet none was as shattering as this one. Watching Invincible's emotional journey over these past dozen years, filled with laughter and tears, bitterness and sweetness, every joy and sorrow, every coquettishness and anger, all of it lay in her deep devotion without regret.

If I were Kaka, even if he had only one second left, I would make him sincerely say "I love you" to me. The rest of my life wouldn't matter as long as there is this declaration; that would be the greatest comfort and happiness for me. These words hit his weakest spot, making it hard for him to endure the pain while desperately trying to do so, as countless emotions burst forth within him, slowly swelling up almost ready to explode.

"I love you, Invincible..." For all these years, when he was alone and no one could hear him, he would say "I love you" to her countless times, yet never once did she hear it. He feared that if she knew his true feelings, he might hurt her the most by enduring these years of hardship.

Of all people in this world, Invincible is the one Kaka owes the most to.

He owes her a love.

Gentle hands touched his shoulders, and Kaka stiffened before slowly turning around. In his crimson eyes reflected Ren Yan's worried face. Suddenly, he hugged Ren Yan tightly, like a child who had endured much suffering returning to the warmth of their mother’s embrace.

Ren Yan couldn't find him and guessed that he would be in Wu Shuang's room; indeed she was right.

But upon entering, she saw Kaka kneeling on his knees with a bent body, painfully lying on the bed, saying "I love you" over and over again. His hoarse voice carried a hint of sorrow, and for the first time, Ren Yan saw her son in such agony.

Kaka had always been a calm child since he was young. Back then, his temperament resembled Chu Li’s; smart, gentlemanly, with occasional bouts of bad temper. As he grew older, his personality gradually became more reserved, never showing any anger again, always gentle and composed, remaining unruffled in the face of change. In unseen corners, her son had been suffering like this while pining for the lover whom he loved yet dared not express his feelings to.

"It's okay, it’s okay." As a mother, she couldn’t bear to see Kaka suffer so much. She didn't mention Wu Shuang again as she noticed the diary spread out on the bed; it was Wu Shuang’s diary, filled with their love and hate towards each other.

She felt deeply pained for them both over these past decades, feeling sad about Wu Shuang but even more so for Kaka.

"Mommy, I didn't mean to..." Kaka said painfully. Ren Yan nodded, "I know, I understand that you love Wu Shuang and you never meant to hurt her; Mom knows."

Kaka was in immense pain, tears welling up in his eyes, the suffering evident from within.

Ren Yan held him gently without saying a word. If she had known about this torment, she wouldn't have brought Kaka to Rome for the New Year this year. There were some conflicts between Wu Shuang and Kaka; Wu Shuang avoided him while he began thinking of her more.

He originally thought that over these past decades, Wu Shuang had endured much suffering and silently loved him without complaint. But tonight, seeing how Kaka was now, Ren Yan couldn't help but wonder who had truly suffered more throughout the years.

What is the point

Son, why can't you tell mommy your troubles

He isn’t unloving towards Wuzhuang.

But if she doesn't ask, Kaka has grown up and built his own psychological world. In that world, besides Wuzhuang, no one else is allowed to intrude, not even someone as close to him as her. She can only wait for the day when her son opens up about his troubles, at which point she will have a solution.

Kaka remained silent, only feeling agonized as he clung to Rongyan's embrace. The soft lighting and mommy’s hug made him feel secure, detached from the world's clamor and away from the pain of loving someone who can't be loved in return.

"Go back to your room and sleep. It wasn’t right for you to see Wuzhuang’s privacy," Rongyan said gently, stroking her son’s hair. "Get some rest; tomorrow will be better."

"It won't get better… it’ll never get better…"

"Kaka, I’m your mommy. If there's anything wrong, tell me, don’t bottle it up alone. Do you know how much it hurts me to see this I’ve never seen you like this before; you scared mommy."

"I… " Kaka gritted his teeth, as if struggling through pain and trying desperately to calm something down, his face turning pale. "I don’t want you to worry."

Rongyan was speechless, then a sudden surge of anger welled up inside her. “If you truly love Wuzhuang, be brave enough to pursue him. How many years have you wasted waiting for her And how many years have you wasted yourself What troubles are making you so restrained and enduring If you had been together ten or more years ago, at least you would have spent over a decade in happiness, not wasting this life. Why torture both of you like this"ou still don't have a gift now. Tell me, how do you want to die"He wasn't very strong; he was just pinching and dangling her intentionally. Warmth was frustrated and tried to hit him back. Ye Feimo ti...
