Master's Untamed Wife-Chapter 931: [Bonus chapter] I’m Sorry

Amiah had come home to meet her father but unfortunately, Shui Koshing wasn't home. It's not like he was avoiding her, he was just that busy because of Shui Xian's absence. He had been working till late at night again.

Amiah had come in the evening and patiently waited for her father.

It was close to 10 o'clock when she went out of the house to take a walk. She was tired of sitting for so long. There wasn't anything she could do. No matter how the house help tried to entertain her with snacks and drinks, they couldn't sit down and talk to her. And there was no one else at home apart from the servants.

She didn't think about roaming around in the house as well. She didn't know where to go since she had never really lived here. By the time, Shui Koshing and Shui Xian moved to Kia City, she had already separated herself from them and drawn a clear line between them. She wasn't even familiar with the servants here.

As she strolled outside the house, she noticed that the wall on one side was being demolished. She didn't understand what kind of work was going on there. But she didn't spend much time dwelling on it since it had nothing to do with her.

She was the one who abandoned her 'Shui' surname. Now, she actually had no right to be concerned about what was going on in this family. Feeling down, she sat down on the stairs leading to the door of the mansion.

She was close to dozing off when the car came to stop before her. Shui Koshing alighted from the car while yawning. It was past his sleeping time. Sigh. He was really back to burning midnight oil just for his son's sake. Being a father was really difficult.

His eyes fell on Amiah who was dazed as she stared at her father under the soft glow of the lights, she realized that her father had aged. He wasn't that young and vigorous man anymore. He even had silver hair now. The realization hit so strongly that she forgot how to react and dumbly stood up while looking at him.

Shui Koshing's eyes also paused on her face but he didn't say anything immediately. He waited for a while and when he didn't see that same anger radiating from her eyes as before, he felt like a weight lifted off his shoulders. He shook his head and strode towards the door.

Seeing how she wasn't following, he stopped to ask, "Are you planning to stand there for the whole night?"

Amiah snapped back to reality and followed him in.

"Old Master, should I serve dinner?" asked the maid who took the suit jacket and briefcase from his hands.

Shui Koshing changed his shoes and nodded, "Yes, serve it. I'm starving."

"Yes."

He once again looked at his daughter and asked, "Have you eaten?"

Amiah was startled when she realized that he was asking her and it took her a moment before she shook her head in response. Even though she was slow, Shui Koshing didn't look to be in a hurry either and patiently waited for her response and only moved his eyes away once he got the response from her.

"Then freshen up and eat something," said Shui Koshing. Although his voice wasn't as warm as before, it wasn't devoid of emotions either.

It was obvious that he wasn't the same father who used to wait for his daughter's return. Truth be told, it had been a while since Shui Koshing lost any hope regarding his one and only daughter. For no other reason except for the fact that she hurt him way too much. He usually tried to not let her words get to him and just ignore her words since he thought she was young but he couldn't do it anymore.

He was indeed getting old. And after his wife's death he was the loneliest one in this family and yet he had to take in the scorn of his only daughter. Of course, all of that hurt. Why else would he get sick at this age? He seemed to have more ailments than his peers.

The problem was Shui Koshing's health deteriorated because of the matters of the heart. It was difficult for the doctors to help with that. When he really needed support, both his children distanced themselves from him.

Even until now, he didn't know who told his daughter that it was his business rivals who did something to his wife's car and that's how she got into the accident. While it was true that one of their helpers was bribed and indeed messed with the car at home but the truth was, that car was driven out by Shui Koshing that day and he was the one who got hurt. And if his driver hadn't been an experienced veteran, he might have also died the same day his wife did and for the longest time, he actually wished it really went that way.

However, somehow the truth became that his wife died because of him.

Strangely, for a long time, even he believed that to be true. Because all his investigations led to that result back then. It was only after meeting Mu Chenyan, that he learned some deeply hidden truths that really left him baffled.

He sat down for dinner with Amiah and ate his meal silently. The atmosphere around them was too silent. None of them spoke. Perhaps, both had nothing really to speak. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺

After a prolonged silence, Amiah lifted up her courage and said, "Dad, I'm sorry!"

Shui Koshing's chopsticks stopped midair before he resumed his movements. He didn't say anything in response and it made Amiah restless and uneasy. She knew she shouldn't be expecting him to forgive her so easily but she still felt a little disappointed.

"I was reckless and naive," she added. "But no matter what, I shouldn't have taken my anger out on you. I'm really sorry for hurting you so much."

"I forgive you," said Shui Koshing. It startled Amiah as she stared into his eyes and realized that he was being sincere right now. He put down his chopsticks and looked straight at her, "After you're done eating, the steward will take you to your room. Rest well."
