Chapter 1595
"Alex," Jane called out to him longingly.
"Hm?"
"My mother..."
Jane knew that this was the worst timing to ask for his help, but was her mother not the reason why she suddenly changed her mind? 1
"You mother? what happened to the old lady?" Alex asked, knowing the answer to that question.
Jane did not answer his question directly, but instead asked, "Alex, you came looking for me over and over again because you felt like you've wronged me, and because you missed the time we spent together in the past seven years, am I right?"
"Of course!"
"So deep down, you still think that I am great, do you? II
"You are irreplaceable in my heart, Jane. After you left, I realized that no other woman in this world will ever be as great for me as you."
Jane suddenly took the initiative to seal his lips with a kiss, and even Garrett in the driver's seat could not help but look away. Both Garrett and Alex knew better than anyone as to why Jane decided to come back, and became this aggressive.
"Jane, your body can't take this right now; besides, look..." Alex casually glanced outside the car and to the driver in front, and continued in a sarcastic tone, " There are so many people watching US. Wait until we get home. Once we get home, there will be plenty of time."
"Alex, Alex," Jane said as though she did not hear a word Alex said, "I... I love you."
"I know."
"Alex, can...can you please help my mom?" She finally stated her true intentions.
"Okay. What happened to your mom? It doesn't matter, whatever happens to her, I will save her. I will definitely save her!"
He knew that it was a plot that he had set up; he knew that Jane's mother was not in any danger, and she was already on a minivan that was driving toward Kidon City; he also knew that Jane turned her decision around and came to him simply because she wanted to save her mother, but at that moment, Alex still could not help but smile bitterly in his heart. The two of them were in a relationship for seven years, she was pregnant with his child and he had spent days and nights in the past four months looking for her. In the end, she still cared more about an old lady than she did him.
‘But what can I do? From the moment I tossed her out so casually, I should have known that getting her back meant that I would have to pay a price a thousand times more. Not to mention that we might not even be as good as we were before,’ he thought, still, Alex was glad. Extremely glad.
"Thank you, Alex. Thank you!" Jane was so moved that she broke down in tears, she held onto him tightly and rubbed her pale cheek against his chest. Her mother could be saved, as long as Alex agreed to help.
"Tell me... what happened?" he asked.
"I just received a phone call saying that when my mom jumped into the ocean to kill herself, she seemed to have triggered some sort of defensive device of advanced technology; they might require compensation..."
"We will pay for it, no matter how much. Even if it costs ten or a hundred billion, we will pay them."
