Rouge Jarvis knew her sons very well. The ring, just a glance at it was enough to see. This was the ring Julian had made for himself to wear, because he wore it for a long ti and grew attached to it, he wanted it to be his future wife’s first gift.
How did it end up on Tiana Thorne’s hand?
Rouge Jarvis felt a twist in her heart, only to find herself dizzy, even her chest felt a bit congested and painful.
Maxim’s girlfriend, returning ho, wearing Julian’s ring, which should belong to Julian’s fiancée, the problem is, she’s also Isaac’s publicly announced girlfriend at the Hawthorne family.
One woman took away three of her sons...
Only feeling her chest tight and short of breath, she reached out to pinch her aching temples, unable to calm down for quite a while.
If it weren’t for her usual good composure, she would have been driven to madness by these sons.
"Mom, you don’t seem well." Maxim Ford knew his mother didn’t like girls, but never thought she would dislike them this much, he frowned.
If it’s like this, we must establish a deep bond between Tiana and mother before they et, otherwise, even if they do et, they might not be particularly close.
Thinking about this, he said: "About the Number 7 Water, Tiana and I still have so things to do, these days, we’ll be staying at the old house."
Tiana?
Even the address is so intimate now.
She didn’t believe Maxim didn’t know the ring on her ring finger was Julian’s, yet he could tolerate her to this extent, really not like his usual behavior.
At that mont, the maid ca, handing her a robe.
Rouge Jarvis put on the robe, not wanting to see them for a second: "Just go out, I’m tired."
"Mom, rest well, I’ll co check on you later."
"Hmm." Rouge Jarvis’ voice was indifferent.
"Ms. Jarvis, I bought so trinkets, I left them there, if you like them, keep them, if not, you can toss them." Tiana Thorne vaguely sensed that her mother had seen her ring and hence was suddenly unwilling to et guests.
Had everything prepared, didn’t expect to forget the ring Second Brother gave her representing his fiancée, really... miscalculated.
Mum would rather bear it herself than bring it up, probably thinking it’s a man’s dignity, saying it now might cause discord between the brothers.
Pfft...
This misunderstanding, this blunder...
Really quite difficult for Mum.
The shadow in Mum’s heart at this mont might already be fully covered, with only a little bit left.
Rouge Jarvis didn’t expect Tiana Thorne could speak so frankly, nor did she pretend to be solicitous, even still, she couldn’t accept it.
Once the two were far away, Rouge Jarvis slapped the coffee table, her brows furrowed, all charming intentions in her eyes vanished, leaving only coldness.
The maid had been with her for decades, already familiar with every emotion; she stepped forward and asked: "Madam, if you don’t like Miss Tang, I could kick her out."
Rouge Jarvis shook her head: "Leave her for now."
The maid nodded, no more words.
She’s worried, if they kick Tiana Thorne out, I fear her three sons wouldn’t agree.
She’s handled countless difficult things over the years, this is the first ti encountering such a tricky problem.
One woman, simultaneously girlfriends of her three sons, she couldn’t bear to hurt any of them, whether biological or not, they’re all dear to her heart.
Tiana Thorne is quite the heartbreaker, even more than she once was!
Maxim’s underhanded move must not be known to Julian; thinking of this, she ordered: "Maid, call Julian, say I’m going to the temple for quiet ditation, tell him not to co and see ."
"Okay, madam, I’ll go do it." The maid responded.
Rouge Jarvis didn’t know how to unravel this deadlock.
At that mont, the maid’s happy voice rang out: "Fourth Young Master is back."
"Maid."
The maid smiled with benevolence and softly reminded: "Madam’s mood isn’t too good, give her so comfort."
"Okay."
After the maid left, Rouge Jarvis looked over, as if seeing light in the end of the tunnel: "Aiden, co over, Mom wants to ask you sothing."
Aiden Shaw, in front of his mother, appeared slightly less cold, he answered gently: "Okay."
"Sit by ."
Aiden Shaw saw her pale face, as if struck by sothing, inevitably thinking of Tiana Thorne’s antics, his sharp brows furrowed.
He pursed his lips: "You don’t look well, didn’t rest well last night? Let massage your shoulders."
He then stood and proceeded to massage her shoulders, one gentle stroke at a ti.
The pressure was warm, very comfortable.
This child’s always been quiet, almost always answers when asked, with a rather indifferent temperant, but his filial piety is most evident.
Once just a pair of children’s hands, as he massaged on, this pair of hands gained strength, more adept than before, marked by ti.
The previously anxious mood slowly improved, filling with a sense of happiness: "Among so many children, you’re the one most willing to spend ti with , even when you were that small, already massaging my shoulders, lo and behold, you’ve grown into a five foot man now."
"Feeling better?"
People grow, but temperant barely changes.
Too sentintal words, he’ll always sidestep.
"Alright, stop massaging, sit." Rouge Jarvis feeling better, her voice relaxed a bit.
"Okay."
Then, she asked: "Recently, have you seen your big brother or second brother?"
"Yes."
Rouge Jarvis pondered for a mont, perhaps Aiden knew sothing, then she asked: "You know your big brother is dating, right?"
"I know."
Indeed, he knows.
Rouge Jarvis heard, frowned again: "Then, do you know your second brother and sixth brother are also dating?"
Aiden Shaw: "As far as I know, they’re single now."
"How can that be?"
...
The servants arranged for Tiana Thorne to stay in the guest room, once familiar with the environnt, she asked to be led to her big brother’s room.
Maxim Ford, though rarely returning, his room was cleaned daily, the scent was refreshing, clean and tidy.
Tiana Thorne entered, admired the room briefly, then smiled: "Brother, your room’s not bad."
"Have a seat."
Tiana nodded, sat, then thought of the recent events and smiled: "Brother, Mom didn’t like from the start, now, it’s likely she dislikes even more."
"She’s never been so publicly cold towards soone before." Maxim Ford frowned, his usually gentle voice now had a heaviness to it.
"Of course, it’s coldness, to not tear apart openly already feels fortunate." Saying so, she raised her hand, waved it before her eyes, a seemingly innocent smile, saying: "Look, the culprit."
Maxim Ford: "..." Julian’s ring, on her ring finger, no wonder...
"I’ll go explain to Mom."
Tiana Thorne said: "I’ll go too."
