Claire was extremely depressed these days when she lost her child. Compared with being framed, this low mood was worse.
But what she knew better was that Chason was sadder than her. After all, in the eyes of the Jiang family including Jarred, she was not qualified to enter the Jiang family without the baby in her belly.
She didn't care about the position of being Mrs. Claire of the Jiang family, but she cared about Chason. If it was in the past, she would be very happy if she could leave the Jiang family and all these. But now it was different. For the first time, she understood the word "reluctant", which would leave people indifferent to other things.
"Claire." When Chason pushed the door in and saw that the little woman was staring up at the ceiling, she was always like that this time, staring alone.
Claire was startled and shook her head half a day before she said, "I'm fine. "
"Come here." Chason took a bowl of white fungus soup and said, "this is what you like to drink, try it."
Claire squeezed out a smile and said, "okay. "
Seeing that Claire tried her best to restrain her sadness, he felt even worse. The two of them didn't mention the child, but they knew each other very well.
Claire tried hard to drink the white fungus soup. Recently, she seemed to have lost her taste. No matter how much she liked to eat before, there was no taste in her mouth now.
"Mr. Chason." The Butler knocked on the door and came in, "the Jiang family called and invited you and Mrs. Claire to have dinner."
Chason waved his hand and said, "tell them that Mrs. Claire is still recuperating and won't go."
"Chason." Claire grabbed his sleeve and said, "I'm much better now. I'll go with you. "
Chason looked at her in surprise. In the past, Claire wouldn't take part in any dinner party, but why did she take the initiative to go today? "Claire?"
She shook her head, she didn't know how many people in the entire S City were saying that she married Chason by virtue of her child, and how many people in the Jiang family were waiting to laugh at her when she lost her child this time.
For the sake of Chason and herself, she couldn't hide this time. Claire knew that she had to tell everyone that she was fine. "Chason, I..." She paused and lowered her head. "I just want people to know that you will still want me without this child." At this moment, Claire really felt an unprecedented sense of grievance, tears streaming down.
Chason's heart ached and he held her tightly in his arms. "You know clearly that I love you not because of this child."
"But I'm afraid." This was the first time that the two had talked about the child since then. Claire had never felt as insecure as she was now. Even if the person she loved was by her side and the two people were so close, she was still afraid.
She didn't know what she was afraid of. Chason was so good to her. However, deep in her heart, she couldn't forget that in the eyes of everyone, the reason why she was with Chason, who was standing on the top of the cloud, was just because of this child. It seemed that the bond between them at the beginning was broken. At this moment, she had a feeling that she would lose him.
Guilt flashed through Chason's eyes. He was not a person who was good at expressing his feelings, because he didn't notice it. Sometimes, he just treated her well, but didn't notice her deep feelings. Especially, Claire had just lost her child. "Okay, Claire. Let's go. I want to tell everyone that you are my only wife in my life. "
Claire wiped her tears. She really didn't know what had happened to her recently. Perhaps it was because she had lost her child. She had always been careless, but recently, she had often thought too much. "Am I... Am I being overly sentimental?? " She bit her lips to suppress the complex feelings in her heart.
"Don't think too much." Seeing Claire like this, he felt a pang in his heart. The woman he loved could be unscrupulous, but when did she become so cautious now? "Come on, let me help you put on your clothes. "
Claire calmed down and put on a light makeup to cover her pale skin. Chason held her hand tightly all the way. The warmth from his palm made Claire feel a little relieved.
The two held hands as they used to do when they went to the Jiang family's old villa together. But this time, it was different. When everyone saw them coming over, they were still polite on the face, but there were people sympathizing and disdaining in their hearts. Losing a child was a big deal for ordinary people, and for the Jiang family, it was even more so.
"Here you are, Chason!" Jarred stood up and welcomed them in.
Even though she was very sad, Claire still greeted him in a sweet voice, "Hello, grandpa. "
