Faux Vows, True Desires novel Chapter 107

Ethan frowned, "Ever since my mom lost her marbles, she gets terrified every time she sees my dad. Why on earth does he keep visiting her?"

His bodyguard remained silent, not knowing what to say.

Janice had been mentally disturbed for over twenty years. Although Nathan was dating Madeleine, he never divorced Janice, his first wife. They still lived together, which made Madeleine green with envy. She saw Janice as a thorn in her side.

Every time Nathan visited Janice, Janice would go berserk. Nathan was the head of the Blue family. Janice was his wife and they had never divorced. Who had the right to stop a husband from seeing his wife? Even if Ethan was in the room, he couldn't stop Nathan from seeing his wife.

Ethan knew his bodyguard couldn't give him an answer, but he instinctively asked the question anyway.

His mother was going off the deep end again. Ethan rushed to the mansion, with his bodyguard trailing behind him. The moment he reached the door, he could hear the sounds of things being smashed and shrieks from inside. He hurried inside.

It was the same old story. A bunch of servants were trying to restrain Janice, who was clutching a doll in one hand and throwing anything she could grab with the other. The servants had been warned by Ethan, so they didn't dare to rush her like before.

"Janice." Shirley felt both anxious and sympathetic. She tried to approach, soothingly saying, "It's me, Shirley."

"Stay away, don't take my baby!"

Janice picked up a vase with one hand, raised it high, glaring at Shirley. It looked like she was ready to throw it at Shirley if she came any closer.

"Don't go near her. That vase is a precious antique of mine!" Grace shouted, preventing anyone from approaching. She was worried that they might provoke her mentally disturbed daughter-in-law into smashing her beloved antique vase.

Accompanying the old lady were the daughters-in-law of the Blue family. Though they nervously watched Janice, there was a hint of delight in their eyes. It seemed they hoped Janice would throw the vase at Shirley, hurting her and breaking the vase too.

Grace used to adore Janice and treated Lucinda like her own, but was always cold towards her other daughters-in-law, Kayla and Ashley. It was only many years after Janice became mentally disturbed that Grace started to detest her.

If the mentally disturbed Janice smashed Grace's favourite antique into pieces, Grace would definitely kick her out of the city in a rage. That place was far from the city centre, and it would be convenient for them to do their thing.

Nathan stood at the top of the stairs, looking complexly at his raving wife. He found himself unconsciously at the door to her room, recalling the warmth of the past. Unable to control his steps, he walked in. He didn't do anything to his wife. As soon as he entered, he saw his wife clutching a doll, dozing off in a luxurious chair, which reminded him of the time when their daughter was still around.

His wife used to wait for him at home in the same way, holding their child. He approached, intending to carry her back to bed, but she woke up, panicked, pushed him away, and ran off with the doll. Nathan couldn't understand why his wife was so afraid of him.

What had he done to her… Nathan's eyes were filled with regret, pain, but mostly helplessness.

When he saw Ethan walk in, his complex expression vanished, replaced by indifference. "Ethan."

Upon seeing Ethan, Shirley felt like she had seen her saviour, "Ethan, quickly, calm Janice down. Don't let her smash that vase. It's Grace's favourite."

"All of you get out," Ethan commanded sternly.
