The Grand Mistress

"Sisi…" Lydon seemed to have calmed down, especially that he saw Simione bleed with the sharp piece she was holding. She was terribly frustrated and angry. She didn't realize she held onto the thing with too much pressure and got hurt. "Sisi your hand…."

"It's very easy for you to say we should have allowed you to die," Simione continued resenting him. "But how did you think what would happen to your grandmother and grandfather when you are gone? They will die in so much guilt for allowing you to be with Feather when she just dumped you at the end. They'll die alone in sorrow knowing that the Han's heiress just used you and when you aren't useful anymore, she just throws you away. How could you let Feather do this to you,"

"Simione.. I don't think that…"

"You don't think that Feather would hurt you?" Simione continued his very own words. "Of course she didn't mean to hurt your, she wanted to kill you,"

Lyndon's eyes went hard on that..

"Do you think she could have let you live if she had a chance? She was marrying Hawk Monsanto now and she wouldn't allow anyone to taint her reputation now," Simione added. "You had to be shut,"

"How long has this been going on?" Lyndon asked suspiciously. He had never thought of the fact that Feather hurt him so she could go with another man in a clean slate. He did think that Feather only abandoned him after the accident but thinking about it now, when SImione made it very clear, it seemed like it was her who really did this to him. 

"I don't know. When I was informed about your accident, the news of Feather's engagement had been on the news already,"

"That sudden?"

"Perhaps," Simione answered and let go of the sharp thing in her hands. "And Perhaps you were right, she might not be the reason for your accident and it's not a coincidence that the Tang's household went crumbling down after that,"

"Sisi what do you mean?"

"I'm tired of lying to you because it's useless anyway," Simione just went on with everything, "grandfather is in prison, he was accused of embezzlement just right after your accident and all of Tang's assets were frozen. We are left with nothing,"

"Impossible…." Lyndon somewhat laughed about it in horror. "But Sisi, that's very impossible, grandfather is…."

"No you are lying.." The man couldn't finish a sentence. "If were left with nothing how can we still afford to liver here, the servants, my medical expenses,"

Simione closed her eyes to suppress her cries. "It's my money….I can't bear to see grandmother struggling...I can't bear grandfather being thrown to prison…I can't bear to see die just because you choose to love the wrong person…"

"Sisi...…." Lyndon became speechless at this. She had always known Simione was a filial child but they weren't her family at all. They just took her in for some reasons and she had already cut ties with them when he broke her heart before. Yet, right now, he just realized how great her love was for the Tangs that even when they weren't her responsibility, she took the obligation right away without hesitation "You should have not done that…."

"And what? Leave grandmother alone with all this? Seriously brother Don?" Simione looked at him with thorough disbelief and frustration. "You know what for a time, I took consolation about the fact that I just need to get this through until you'll wake up. That when you wake up, everything will be fine…that you would take responsibility and that you will save grandmother and grandfather from what they were in right now….How very wrong I was with that….because until now, you haven't thought about your responsibility as the Tang's young master and just throw tantrums like a child whenever things doesn't suit you….you are very childish and pathetic,"

Lyndon sighed regretfully. He didn't really have an idea about how hard things went for Simione after his accident. He thought things were okay and that she had just come home because she was worried about him, turns out it was more than that and Simione once again took charge of his responsibility like a real Tang when it wasn't necessary for her to do so. 

"I'm sorry Sisi…I didn't know…"

"Of course you didn't know. That's the thing you always say when things get complicated and inconvenient. When we were young, I've always told you to be careful with Feather…you never listened to me. Look what happened to you now,"

Lynon was silent again. Simione was so good with her words it hit right through his very own heart.  It even came as a surprise for him because the truth was, Simione had never broke down this way in front of him, she had never been this miserable.

"And there's something more that you didn't know…." Simione's face was filled with thorough disgust, not for the boy but for the thought that went on her head. "You didn't know how I became stupidly foolish for chasing after Feather to get revenge for you….You didn't know how I took all my pride and morals and became Hawk Monsanto's other woman so I could break Feather's heart!... I leveled down myself to a whore….a slut…a bicth….so I can at least make Feather pay…." Simione was crying again at this point, remembering how she played fire and death just to get even with Feather Han, "And now….seeing you like that….It makes me regret everything that I did! You are so unworthy to fight for! Damn you…I become a slut just for you ...."

"I became a Monsanto mistress for you!" Simione shouted it all to Lyndon's face. "And you so…. not worth it!"

Hearing it, Lyndon was shaking—out of fury, out of pity. He never did believe how far Simione's love and dedication for him and his family brought her. She suffered for them. She took revenge for them.
