Judas kiss novel Chapter 52

Jeanine marched out of the Brooklyn police station with her gucci purse in hand and a branded sunglasses to hide face from the shame that her son constantly caused her. Day in and out. Luc followed behind his mother. Dressed in last nights clothes, hair disheveled and tiny stubble right below his chin. His mom didn't even spare him a glance as she went into her silver latest Range Rover. She didn't want to bring a driver along, that would just bring a lot of unwanted attention.

Luc was practically running behind his mother who immediately opened the drivers door to her car. She seemed angry, as she slammed the door shut, Luc thought but this wasn't the first time. He just needed someone to bail him out and a ride to where ever he was going to go to. Then he would get out of her hair.

The drive was silent.

Luc whistled here and there.

"Just shut up will you!!" Jeanine snapped at her son who only shrugged.

"Why can't you be more like Andre huh Luc? Is that so hard? You're such an embarrassment to us all. Why can't you be normal. You don't want to grow up and you're practically homeless and jobless. You're only surviving off Andre." Jeanine yelled hitting the staring wheel with her recently manicured nails.

Luc only laughed.

"You're a disgrace." Jeanine spat fuming with anger and disbelief.

"You want me to be like Andre? So you can drug my pregnant other half and deceive me too?!" Luc chuckled. "You can miss me with that bullshit." Luc said looking at his side of the window noticing how busy the New York streets always were.

Jeanine was utterly shocked.

"I would rather be homeless and jobless than live up to your expectations where I can't even be myself and I'm not happy. If you think what you did was what was best for Andre then you're mistaken.." Luc continued. "You don't even notice how much weight Andre has lost these past few years. He is actually looking better now these couple of months ever since she came back.."

Jeanine pretended to be focused on the road but every word that her son said hit her like ton of bricks stumbling down her head. She thought apologizing to Andre and Della would find her closure. It seemed things had only turned for the worst.

"You destroyed his marriage and the least you could have done is stay with him during his heartbreak period but no mother. You destroyed his marriage then immediately went away and continued with your perfect life. I had to be the one cleaning up after Andre's puke because he had chased away all the maids. I had to be the one holding him as he cried. I had to be the one taking all the blows that were meant for the wall.. your freaking job since you're?Mrs. Know it all."
