She wondered what Jared would think of her when he found out she had lost the dress.
All she knew was that she was very uneasy and wanted someone to be with her, someone she could rely on.
In the past, when she didn’t get back together with Jared, she had to bite the bullet and deal with it herself.
But now that she was back with him, she was not alone anymore, so naturally she wanted to lean on him.
Boyfriends, after all, were meant to be relied upon.
Amber clenched her hands, her mind fluctuating.
At that time, the Farrell’s Mansion.
Jared got back to the house, and when he got out of the car, he saw a fat figure coming out of the gate and walking toward him with a big, happy face.
“Jared, what are you doing back here?” Shonna Woodham arrived in Jared’s presence, and her panting, fleshy face was flushed from her joy, her haste, and her fatness.
She looked very tired.
Jared frowned, “Mom, you should go on a diet. You’ve been wheezing all this way. Being too fat is bad for your health.”
It had been a while since he had seen Shonna Woodham, and when he did, she was even fatter.
Her eyes, which had been a little before, were now almost closed.
Shonna Woodham wasn’t too happy to hear that Jared had made her lose weight, “Why should I go on a diet? I’m fine, aren’t I? The ladies in the circle all said my appearance shows good fortune and that it would be good for our family.”
“And you believed that?” Jared pinched his lips, “If it shows good fortune, then why don’t they look like this themselves to be good for their families?”
Shonna Woodham was stunned.
Yeah, if it was a blessing, why were all those women actively trying to lose weight?
Shonna Woodham, who was not really a fool, soon realized why, and looked morose.
She was fooled by those women!
Those women lied to her and made fun of her so she wouldn’t lose weight and they could make fun of her.
She, on the other hand, had taken it for granted that they meant what they said, and had even floated with complacency, without thinking that they had been deliberately teasing her from the very beginning.
They had probably been laughing behind her back a lot these days.
Shonna Woodham was filled with anger at the thought. She was already fat, and her anger was so strong that her body swelled and swelled as if she were about to explode.
She, too, was a little unsteady, swaying slightly as if she were about to faint.
Seeing that, Jared frowned and gave her a hand, “Watch out!”
Shonna Woodham came to her relief and patted Jared on the back of his hand, “It’s a good thing you helped me up, or I would have collapsed.”
“What was going on?” Jared asked.
He had just seen that something was wrong with her.
Shonna Woodham said with a wave of her hand, “All of a sudden, I felt dizzy and my brain was swollen.”
This symptom, Jared immediately understood what was going on.
“Hypertension.” Jared said quietly.
Shonna Woodham’s eyes widened in disbelief, “Hypertension?”
“Yes.” Jared nodded, “When this happens, it can only be hypertension.”
“How… how can I get that?” Shonna Woodham opened her mouth in disbelief, “Isn’t that a problem of old age?”
