Chapter 371-375

Chapter 371

Soon Jae Manobam looked at Lisa who revealed astonishment on his face before laughing loudly.

"Don't hate this old fellow for shamelessly kneeling before you. I come before you not as your grandpa, not as your elder, and certainly not as a stupid retired government official.

"I kneel before you to thank you, for your sacrifice back then, which ended up protecting the hundreds of people in the Manobam clan. This is the very least the clan owes you. Although I can't change anything that has happened by kneeling, I hope at the very least I'll feel better myself."

As soon as he finished speaking, Soon Jae Manobam stood up slowly before standing straight and confident. He wasn't at all ashamed for his act earlier, but looked very relaxed instead.

Lisa  couldn't help but to laugh. "What makes you think I'll acknowledge you after this?"

YSoon Jae Manobam shook his head. Sincerely, he said, "I don't expect you to accept us, your family members, just because I kneeled down. I said it before, and I shall repeat. Being your grandpa, being your elder, I've never felt the need to kneel before you, no matter how guilty at heart I feel. There's never a reason for someone to kneel before their grandchild.

"At the same time, there's something a little controversial, which I feel is reasonable however. Regardless of the circumstance, parents should never have to feel like they owe to their children, since said child wouldn't have been born without their parents!

"Although your parents didn't raise you, they were the ones who gave birth to you. Even if you suffered greatly after that, you still cannot deny the fact that you are alive now because of them. Furthermore, they never intended for you to suffer as you have. Giving birth to you was already a huge risk that they decided to bear.

"You may hate them, but you cannot deny the fact that they're your parents, and you can't forget that they've given you your life."

Lisa remained quiet. He wanted to say something to refute Soon Jae Manobam, but he then noticed that he certainly had no reason to do so.

Maybe, deep down his heart, he hadn't actually cut off his relations with his relatives completely. Otherwise, he wouldn't have told Son Ye-Jin to not beg him and shown Jae Wook mercy.

Lisa  was aware that although he was referred to as 'god' by others, he was no more human than the next person.

It was just that he was able to do certain things that ordinary people couldn't. His mentality was one of a human, which had seven emotions and six desires.

[TL note: Seven emotions and six desires include joy, anger, grief, worry, fear, sentiments, affection, lust, vanity, dignity, pleasant sounds, good life, and sensual pleasures.]

He was still young after all. Although he had had numerous experiences, which meant he had been through a lot, he was still rather immature when it came to emotions. He would love others, and at the same time enjoy the love shown by others. Similarly, he would hold hate and anger just like everyone else.

He used to teach Nancy that holding grudges against your parents is not worth the time and effort. Fate played a huge role in allowing a child to be given birth by specific parents. In the grand scheme of things, one's suffering and frustration is so insignificant that considering it at all would be absurd.

However, people being people, were often hypocrites themselves. Teaching Nancy  was a separate issue. His situation wasn't as simple as an argument between parents and children.

Soon Jae Manobam seemed to have said everything he wanted. Signalling the old woman behind, he planned to walk outside the room.

As he walked past Jennie, Soon Jae Manobam smiled and said, "Jennie, sorry for frightening you."
