Stuck On You novel Chapter 70

"Mom." Chason put his arm around Claire's shoulder and greeted his mother indifferently, "Claire is not in good health. I'll take her back first."

Gina was a little embarrassed, but with her son around, she could only nod her head no matter how much she didn't like Claire.

Chason held Claire's hand tightly and said with a doting smile, "let's go." After saying that, he took her out of the hall of the old villa of the Jiang family under the gaze of everyone.

"Just go back?" Jarred asked as he was surrounded by the crowd.

Chason nodded, "Claire is not in good health. I'll take her back to have a good rest."

Everyone's eyes were naturally focused on them. Those who sympathized with and looked down upon Claire just now all had an unsuppressed envy in their eyes. In this circle, many people's marriage was the exchange of interests and complementary, there were very few people who would be together because of love.

No one noticed Gina sitting in the corner. She stood up with her bag, bypassed the crowd and quietly walked away. "Go to the Jiang family's cemetery."

"Mrs. Gina?" The servant looked at her in surprise.

A trace of sadness flashed through Gina's eyes. "It's been so many years. Let's go to see Chason's father."

The servants didn't say anything more, and the sedan quickly arrived at the Jiang family cemetery, which wasn't very far from the old villa, but this place was very different from the lively villa. The people lying here were the ancestors of the Jiang family, and they had more or less made their own efforts for this clan. But now, they had all turned into ashes. They lied quietly here, looking especially sad.

Gina sighed. She had been back for a long time, but she had never been here. She didn't know whether she was reluctant or not.

"Hanks." Gina gently touched the tombstone, but there was no dust on it. The Jiang family would come to the cemetery to visit the tombs regularly, which was a rule set by their ancestors. "I'm back."

She smiled bitterly. When she first met Hanks, she was still a twenty year old girl. They met under the arrangement of her parents. At that time, she was confused and only knew that this man was the successor of the Jiang family, and she was going to marry him.

Later, she married him in a daze. She still didn't know what love was for so many years. Just as her parents said, as the daughter of the Gu family, something as illusory as love, she wouldn't understand.

Fortunately, Hanks was really nice to her. The six or seven years they had been together was probably the happiest time in her life. If it weren't for his brothers, she might have been the woman behind him for the rest of her life, instead of becoming a cold and heartless woman in everyone's eyes.

After all, after she lost her husband, because she was the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family and gave birth to a child. Even if she was willing to remarry, in order to get a share of the Jiang family, the Gu family naturally did not agree with her remarriage. For the interests of the Gu family, she had to be a widow at such a young age.

Without a husband, in a family like the Jiang family, even with the protection of Jarred, they still had a hard time. However, Gina was not an ordinary weak woman. She finally made up her mind to leave her young son in the Jiang family and start her own business abroad.

"Hanks, I have my own business, and our child obtained the right to inherit the Jiang family." Gina smiled bitterly, tears that seemed to have been endured for decades finally fell down at this moment. "But I don't have anyone close to me, including our son, who has never treated me as a mother in his heart."

Was this her retribution? When she was young, she had done something stupid. But for so many years, she had been suffering for those past days day and night. Even if she had felt guilty and suffering, she still had to hold on and could not lose.

She did something wrong, and she had to make up for it with countless wrong things. She bit her lips and wiped her tears hard. "Don't blame me, Hanks. I did this for our son." If there was anything else in the world worth her concern, that was her son.

"So, Hanks, I have to do it no matter right or wrong." After a long time, Gina stood up, gently took off a brooch from her chest, put it on the tombstone, turned around and left.

On the way back, Gina's eyes were no longer full of sadness. She put on some hand cream and dialed a number. "Plan B." No matter what, she would never let Claire stay with her son. Since they couldn't be separated naturally, as Chason's mother, she had to give it a push.

"Mrs. Claire, there is a package." Claire was drying her hair with a towel when a servant came up with a folder.

She shook her hair and took a look at the package. She hadn't bought anything recently. "Put it there. It should be for Chason." Chason often signs for this kind of document. "

"Mrs. Claire, the person who sent the package asked you to sign and open it in person." The servant put the envelope on the table and left.
