Moon Lovers: Bound by Blood and Revenge
165 Regrets
Kira continued reading Evelyn's memories and showing them to Ronan. He didn't see enough yet as there was more to discover.
Evelyn couldn't move. She felt that something wasn't right. Was Kira a vampire? Then she looked down realizing she was no longer wearing her bracelet with Ametiz Stone.
She tried to shake her head, moving it away from Kira's grasp but Marceline was holding her tight. She was very strong.
"Let go of me! Enrique! What are you doing? Help me!!!" Evelyn asked for help from Enrique with her panicking voice.
"Stay Still!" Kira's two words made Evelyn stop struggling.
Enrique, who was watching them on the side, didn't know what was going on. He was still confused about what Kira and Marceline were doing to his parents.
But as long as they were not hurting them, he wouldn't interfere. He was also curious about how Marceline would show him the truth.
Meanwhile, Ronan was still witnessing some flashbacks coming from Evelyn's memory. This time, Ronan saw Evelyn secretly putting and mixing some black powder into Grandpa Roland's tea. Her move was very suspicious.
Another scene flashed in Ronan's mind. It was the conversation between Evelyn and Vladimir. Ronan didn't expect that Evelyn had connections with Cedric's advisor, Vladimir.
Ronan found out that the essence of the Black Flower came from Vladimir. The truth was now coming to light. He learned that Vladimir and Evelyn already knew each other even before he met his wife.
Ronan was utterly devastated when he found out that their encounter was just part of their plan. Evelyn intentionally approached him and tried to win his heart as she had an important mission to do– infiltrate the Zhou Family and influence them to side with the werewolf clan.
That's the start of Evelyn poisoning Ronan's mind. She stirred a conflict between the two Zhou brothers. She was the one who made Ronan hate his brother further.
She drove him to the edge, making him believe that she was the only person who truly cared for him. Ronan became blinded by his love that he didn't see right from wrong.
Before he realized it, he had already done something that he couldn't turn back anymore. This led to the death of his brother and his sister-in-law.
He didn't ask Cedric to kill Marceline's parents. All he wanted was for them to leave the Golden City so that his father would let him manage the Zhou Empire alone.
But Evelyn, Vladimir, and Cedric were the ones who planned out everything. They told Ronan that their death was just an accident. The husband and wife fought back so they had no choice but to kill them.
Ronan believed Cedric's explanation, not knowing that the three already decided to kill them both including Marceline. Since the damage had been done, Ronan chose to remain silent.
Even if he cried or regretted his actions or stealing and swapping the Ametiz Protection Stone, he could no longer bring back Marceline's parents.
He had been affected by their deaths as well. When his brother died, he felt so empty. But Evelyn was there, convincing him that everything that happened was not his fault. She comforted him until he moved on from losing his brother.
Then he continued craving for more power and wealth. The greed in his heart changed him into a rotten person. All he cared about was to get the Zhou Empire for himself. But Ronan couldn't bring himself to hurt Marceline because of her parents.
In the memories he was seeing, Evelyn was the one who always tried to kill Marceline. She tried it numerous times but she failed over and over again.
After seeing this, Ronan realized that Evelyn just used him. This was what the werewolf clan wanted. The last gatekeepers who were helping the vampire clan were able to succumb to the power of the werewolf clan.
Ronan felt that he was so stupid! He was deceived by his own wife. Her loyalty was not for him, but it was intended for Vladimir and Cedric's pack. They were the ones who saved Evelyn before so she felt indebted to them. She was willing to do anything for Vladimir and the White Claw Pack.
Ronan was shaken by this discovery. He turned his back on his brother and his father. He was the one who left them to die. His father was now in a critical condition and there was no guarantee if he could make it out alive.
All of this happened to the Zhou Family because of his foolishness and greed. He was deceived by a woman. She played with him in her palm, putting him under control.
She thought what she felt for him was true love… a genuine one. But he was mistaken. For Evelyn, he was just an instrument or a thing that they could use for their own gains.
Ronan's heart constricted as if it was being squeezed. He was suffocated. For the first time, he felt the true pain of losing his family. He started to regret everything. The love he had for Evelyn was now replaced by anger and hatred.
He now understood everything and connected the dots. Kira was not an ordinary human. He could read someone's mind and transfer those memories to another person.
'So this is the proof he was referring to.' Ronan thought to himself, smiling bitterly. What an ugly truth?!
He couldn't believe that he let the werewolf clan use him against his own family. He hated himself for being a fool.
It did not take long when Kira was done showing Ronan the things he should see. He let go of him and removed his hand that was touching Evelyn's forehead. Marceline also released Evelyn from her grasp.
Enrique felt relieved as nothing bad happened to his parents. He was right to trust Marceline. Now, he wanted to find out what was the truth?
Ronan slowly opened his eyes while gritting his teeth. Meanwhile, Kira looked at Marceline meaningfully as if he was telling her that their plan was a success!
"Honey!" Evelyn immediately approached Ronan, hugging him tightly. "What did they do to us?"
To Evelyn's surprise, Ronan pushed him away from his body. She was about to ask him why when suddenly she felt a hand slapping her face.
Pak!
Ronan was the one who slapped her. Aside from Evelyn, Enrique and Marceline were caught off guard as they didn't see it coming.
"You evil woman! How dare you poison my father and order to assassinate my niece! You should be imprisoned!"
Enrique was stupefied when he heard that. Was this true? His mother did those evil things… This was the first time he saw his father hurting his mother physically.
He knew how much his father loved their mother. He never lay a hand on her. But now, he witnessed his father slapping his mother so hard.
"No! Don't believe them, Ronan. That's a lie! They are just deceiving you!" Evelyn would never admit it. She started to cry, trying to get his sympathy. She thought it would work on him. But this time Ronan made his heart cold to her.
Ronan became more enraged as Evelyn was good at acting and pretending. He hated her as much as he hated his own self.
"You should be the one to die!" Ronan yelled at her, strangling her.
"Dad, No!" This time Enrique dashed in their direction to rescue his mother. Ronan was choking his mother right in front of him. Enrique panicked.
On the other hand, Marceline and Kira were now standing next to each other, watching the family of three as they started fighting. Marceline didn't pity Evelyn and Ronan. She thought they deserved all of this. They should destroy each other.
Ronan dragged his wife outside. He planned of surrendering her to the police officers. He would no longer defend nor protect her.
The living room was put in chaos because of Ronan and Evelyn. Evelyn was still trying to convince Ronan but he would never listen to her lies. He had been fooled for more than two decades. It was enough already!
"Police officers, bring her now to the precinct!" Ronan ordered the two policemen, pushing Evelyn towards them.
"Dad?! What's happening here? Why are you hurting Mom?" Natasha joined them as she hugged her mother, shielding her away from Ronan.
Enrique was also trying to hold his father, stopping him from hurting Evelyn further.
"Don't call her Mom! She is an evil and cunning woman!" Ronan said through his gritted teeth.
The two police officers exchanged a puzzled look at each other. Just a while ago, Ronan was hell-bent on protecting his wife but now, he was the one surrendering his wife to them.
Natasha quickly chared in the direction of Marceline and Kira, who were descending from the stairs.
"What lies did you feed my father?! Why is he getting mad at our mother?!" Natasha grabbed Marceline by her collar but Kira twisted her fingers right away making Natasha scream in pain.
Marceline sneered at Natasha and said, "We just showed him the proof. Now, your father is aware of your mother's evil deeds. Don't blame us."
"You are destroying my family because you never had this kind of family, you orphan!!!"
Pak!
"D-Dad?" Natasha couldn't believe it. Her father slapped her for the very first time.
"Don't talk like that to your cousin!" Ronan scolded her, his eyes shooting daggers at her.
Marceline was taken aback by Ronan's attitude and behavior. She didn't expect that Ronan would speak up for her.
'What happened there? What did he see?' Marceline pondered to herself.
