Chapter 26 Whatever It Takes
Even though I was disappointed in mom for so many years, but she is still my mom, how could I let her die?
Packed my things hurriedly ad rushed out of my office. I bang into Wendy and my stuff fell out of my hands. Wendy helped me pick up my stuff.
*Jennie are you rushing to somewhere? You should inform boss, or else he will get angry again.”
I picked up my stuff and wanted t leave, but Wendy wouldn’t let go of my hands.
I said: “Can you help me inform him that there’s an emergency at my home and I needed to go back to Denmark.”
Lance was leaving his office right at this time and saw me running pass him.
I heard Wendy reporting to him: “Jennie needs to go back to Denmark due to an emergency at home.”
Lance followed behind me and I noticed him giving his family a call, asking them what happened. He said: “Hm, alright, tell father I will go back home and we’ll talk about
He increased his footsteps and pulled my arms: “Follow me to the airport, we will go back by my private plane.”
I shrugged his hands away and he scowled at me. “Stop being so stubborn, I’m the only one who can send you to your mother quick enough.”
I looked at him with suspicion, since when did he decided to treat me well?
He even offered to send me back to Denmark in his private plane.
Lance seemed to know what I was thinking and chuckled: “Don’t think too much, something happened at home I just want to go and have a look, see what kind of games your mother wants to play….”
I knew it, I knew Lance wouldn’t be so nice. I glared at him.
In his place, we sat face to face. He read his sports magazine while I stared at him. I wanted to say something, but I didn’t know what to say.
“Why are you staring at me?” Lance put down his magazine and looked up at my face.
I lowered my head awkwardly when he caught me staring at him. He said something

about my mom again, but I chose to just glare at him and say nothing.
I didn’t say anything because I wasn’t sure about my mom’s history with Uncle Mason. But wha I head from gossips was, my mom got together with Uncle Mason when Lance and Leo’s mom was still alive. She was sick at that time.
“A clap wouldn’t sound without 2 hands, your father ain’t anyone good either.” I mumbled. He heard me.
He face turned cold and he smirked: “Weren’t you used to be nice to my father? Now that he dumped your mother, you’re starting to scold him behind his back?”
I knew Lance always thought me and mom wanted their money and power, perhaps my mom did, but I can swear to god that I never wanted any of those.
I closed my eyes and pretended to sleep, we could never have a decent conversation.
I rushed straight to the hospital the moment we landed. Mom had already woken up and was in the ward. Because she lost a lot of blood, she looked very pale.
When my mom woke up and saw me beside her bed, she held my hands and said: “Mom wasn’t trying to scare you, they chased me out of the house and forced me to leave, what’s the point of living? Jennie, you must have ideas to make them let me stay, right? I was the one who begged them to let you stay too, to let you live a good life. If you don’t help me now, it means you don’t care about me.” Mom cried.
If I don’t make them let her stay, it means I don’t care about her?
Haha……
That’s my mom. What a mom.
I pulled my hands away from her with disappointment and sighed. “Mom, how do you want me to help you? You tell me.”
Mom’s face turned a little ugly. She cared too much about money, fame and status.
To the extent that she forgot much about me, her daughter.
“I don’t care, you must have a way. You have always been smart and clever, if you don’t help me I’ll kill myself again.”
She threatened me again. I wanted so badly to yell at her right there to just die, I don’t want to care anymore! But she’s my mom, I still couldn’t say it.
“You’re trying to leave yourself no choice and also leave me no choice! Then fine, we can die together. Let’s meet dad soon and we’ll be a happy family!” I yelled, my tears rushing out of my eyes.
Mom suddenly got up from her bed and yelled like an insane woman: “Don‘t even bring up your father. I will always be part of the Mason’s Family, your father is none of my business!”
“Mom, I…… I really can’t help you.” I stared at mom, didn’t know what to think, to say or to do.
I panicked and tried to comfort her with my shaking voice. “ Mom, stop, put the knife down and we will talk about it, okay?”
I snatched the knife and threw it away from us, I screamed and cried:“ What the hell do you want?! You really leave me no choice, do you?! No matter how good Uncle Mason is, can he be any better than your own daughter?! Just wake the hell up, mom! Uncle Mason doesn’t even like you, now you‘re getting older, he can’t wait to chase you away
“I forbid you to speak of Uncle Mason like that! He likes me, he used to treat me so well! He bought me jewels, clothes and even brought me around the world to travel! It is that slut that seduced him away from me! Jennie, please beg Lance Mason, he is the master of the house now! Please help me beg him, for mom?”
Mom suddenly kneeled down and begged me. I shook my head in disbelief. I couldn’t accept that this woman is my mother. How could she do this to me?!
