Stuck On You

He didn't dare to bet on the Jiang Group, not even for family affection.

"Are you still my son?" Although she had guessed that her son would answer her in this way, when such reasonable and cold words came out of her son's mouth, her heart was still like being cut by a knife.

Chason sighed slightly, "I'm sorry, mother. Maybe I can promise you anything else, but I have made up my mind to withdraw the Jiang Group from the Gu Group."

"Anything else?" She sneered, "Can you promise me about your relationship with Claire?"

Chason was a little angry. These were two completely different things. He didn't understand why his mother pulled them together. "Claire and I have nothing to do with this matter. Mom, please don't vent your anger on her."

"As far as I know, not only have you cancelled the cooperation with the Gu Group this time, but also you are slowly withdrawing your rights to the people of the Jiang family. Chason, I ask you, are you going to transfer the people of the Lin family to your company next step?" Gina couldn't control her words and deeds. She had never been like this before. No matter how much injustice she had suffered and how angry she was in her heart, she was still a decent person in front of everyone. But now, in front of her dearest son, she was about to explode.

He didn't expect that his mother knew so much about his company? He frowned and said, "Mom, I don't care how you know what I have done in the Jiang Group, but I want to remind you that besides our mother son relationship, this behavior infringement of business secrets." What on earth had her mother done in secret?

Gina said crazily, "Well, you can call the police and arrest me."

He had never seen his mother like this, and his heart was also very complicated. "Mom, calm down. We can't only have these things between us, okay?" From childhood to adulthood, he and Gina were more like tools for the Jiang family and Gu family to restrict each other than mother and son.

Hearing this, Gina couldn't help crying. This was the first time she cried in front of him. She didn't cry in front of her son when her husband passed away, and she didn't shed a tear in front of Chason when they were bullied by Jiang family. No matter how unfair treatment she received in the business world, she had never shed a tear in front of her son.

But this time, her last defense line in her heart had been completely broken through.

He had never seen her mother cry like this. Gina was such a strong woman. She had always warned her son to be strong, and tears were the right of the weak.

But this time, she cried so sadly in front of him, "Mom!" Chason helped his mother up. He knew that it was not easy for his mother to live for so many years, but he could not persuade her. "Mother, although the responsibility of the family in the world is important, you have done too much for the Gu family. Can you put down something? Enjoy the happiness of your family, okay?"

After a long time, Gina stood up, wiped her tears and said indifferently, "You can leave now." She returned to the arrogant and elegant Gina. Even though her eyes were still a little red because of the great sadness just now, there was still arrogance and nobility in her eyes. Chason knew that it was unnecessary to say anything more. He didn't know when to remove the gap between his mother and him. "Mother, don't worry. I will help the Gu family in other ways."

Gina didn't say anything, but turned her back to Chason. When she heard the sound of him turning around and closing the door, her tears fell again.

After Chason went back, he was somewhat absent-minded. In the evening, she stayed in the study, facing the iPad, but couldn't see a word.

He didn't go back to his room until eleven o'clock in the evening. Claire made a glass of milk and went to the study.

She saw that he was in a daze in front of the table and was not working at all. She had been his secretary before, so she knew him not only in life, but also in work.

"Chason, drink some milk. If you have something that you can't finish, you can deal with it tomorrow." She thoughtfully picked up the cup and handed it to him. It was said that in the afternoon, Chason went to Gina's house. If she guessed right, it must have something to do with Gina.

Claire sighed in her heart. Claire had never asked anything about them for so long. At the beginning, she thought it was unnecessary to ask. After all, she thought she was only the nominal wife of Chason, and she had no right to talk about other people's private affairs. She didn't want to ask now. She knew the complicated relationship between Chason and Gina. Although he seldom mentioned Gina, she knew from Gina's objection to their marriage that that woman was really not a person to be trifled with. But even so, she still hoped that the mother and the son could get along well, probably because she had never been loved by a real mother. Claire hoped, extravagantly hoped for such a relationship.

She put down the milk and wanted to go back to her room first. She should be considerate and give Chason some time to be alone at such a moment.

When Claire was about to leave, she was stopped by Chason. He said in a hoarse voice, "Claire, stay with me, okay?"

Chason buried his head in her arms and said, "Claire, I'm so afraid of having a baby. I'm afraid that I will become a person like my mother. And forget those best feelings for the family and power."

"No, you won't." She comforted him in a soft voice, "We are who we are. We cherish all good things we have."
