Chapter 303 It’s Not Your Fault
At that moment, although Pierre was facing away from Meredith, he could hear her sobbing. “Then did Jamie lose his life because we did something wrong?”
Meredith’s chest tightened when she heard that, and she cried harder. “Yes, it’s all because of what I did. I’m not a responsible mother. In order to become famous, I marginalized other actresses and spread false rumors. My sister did the wrong thing, but I never stopped her. It’s all my fault! If God wanted to punish anyone, He should punish me instead of my son!” She fell on her bottom and started wailing.
Feeling sorry for her, Pierre approached her and helped her up. Instantly, Meredith plunged into his embrace and said, “I’m sorry, Pierre. I couldn’t protect our son. It’s all because of me!”
“It’s not your fault.” He gave her a brief consolation. “Pierre, I know you love Selena, but what about our son? Did he lose his life for nothing?” Meredith raised her head and gazed at him with her teary eyes.
She concluded that Jameson was dead because that was what Big Ben told her. Therefore, she believed that Pierre’s investigation would also lead him to the conclusion that Jameson had passed away.
After a moment of hesitation, Pierre replied, “The kid is innocent. Just see it as doing good deeds for Jojo.”
Meredith fell silent as he indeed had the right to do good deeds for his son by forgiving Selena. Lowering her head, she said, “Since you’ve said so, there’s nothing else I can say.”
Just then, Pierre caught a glimpse of the lucky charm on her neck. The lamplights in the cafe were dim, but the lucky charm happened to reflect the light. Seeing that, he frowned.
Outside the cafe, Selena was heartbroken to see that they were hugging each other.
Pierre was a man who refrained from any physical contact. Perhaps it was due to Jameson that he stopped minding it and held her in his embrace now, which showed that they were in an intimate relationship.
She’s his son’s mother, and this fact will never change. So who am I in his heart?
