Chapter 193
Winter threw herself into Jade’s arms, feeling aggrieved. “I worked so hard to become a big star admired
adm by everyone. I don’t want my career to end here. Mom, please help me!”
She clung to Jade’s sleeve. “Mom, haven’t you always been the best to me? You must have a way to help, right?”
Jade frowned. What could she do? She had no power or influence. She only relied on the Shaw family.
Yet now that this scandal had broken out, the other members of the Shaw family would definitely have their objections, making it difficult to resolve.
Seeing Jade’s hesitant expression, Winter felt even more disappointed. “Mom, do you not love me anymore? Are you just going to stand by and watch me be ruined like this?”
“Of course not! How could I not love you?” Jade hugged Winter, gently patting her shoulder. “You’re my only daughter. Who else would I care for if not you? There’s a way to solve this, but…”
“But what?” Winter urgently grasped Jade’s hand while biting her lip. “Mom, you have a way, don’t you? I knew you would.”
Jade felt troubled, but for the sake of her daughter, she nodded. “Have you forgotten about Xavier?”
“Xavier?” Winter was stunned. With so much happening lately, she had not thought about him. Now, as she was reminded of him by Jade, Winter remembered that as her fiancé, Xavier, had not appeared
recently.
Feeling even more wronged, Winter looked at Jade. I’ve been in trouble for so long, and he hasn’t even called. Mom, do you think the Harris family will abandon me because of this scandal?”
After all, Joseph had agreed to her being with Xavier because she was the eldest daughter of the Shaw family and held shares in the family.
Thinking of this, Winter unconsciously gripped Jade’s arms tightly.
Jade gasped in pain. “Winter, what are you doing?!”
Jade’s sharp reprimand brought Winter back to her senses. She looked pitifully at her mother. “I’m sorry, Mom. I didn’t mean to. I just… Thinking about Xavier not caring at all, I…”
“Who said Xavier doesn’t care about you?” Jade scolded her lightly. “You locked yourself in your room, refusing to see anyone. Xavier came to the house, but I thought you wouldn’t want him to see you like this.
She hugged Winter, comforting her. “Silly girl, you’ve had your phone off. Xavier is worried about you.” “Really?” Winter’s eyes lit up. “Xavier really came to see me?”
“Of course. Why would I lie to you?” Jade seemed to remember something. ‘Do you remember the important guest at your grandfather’s birthday banquet?”
