A Trust-fund Baby novel Chapter 53

In N City

After entering with Diana into Diana’s house, Judson saw Sally who was sitting alone in a daze in the living room. Seeing Sally again after two months, they found that Sally hadn’t combed her hair, and had more white hairs, with dark eye sockets and sallow face, looking haggard.

Seeing Judson and Diana come back, Sally was extremely shocked with her widely opened mouth, “Diana, you and Judson?”

Looking at the haggard Sally, Diana felt a little pitiful. Although Sally had been tart and mean, Diana had lived with her for more than 20 years after all, and still had some affection for her. Besides, over the half year Sally had suffered a lot to live in this way.

Diana took a deep breath, “Mom, I am back with Judson… But we are not reconciled yet, nor are we remarried…”

Hearing this, Sally frowned but soon the tight eyebrows smoothed. She took Diana by the hand, “Well, glad to see you back. There is no hurry to get remarried. Mom didn’t tell anyone after you and Judson got divorced. I am waiting for some day when you and Judson become reconciled. Daughter, you have suffered a lot. Mom is sorry to you...”

Sally dissolved into tears while speaking. Only during these months when she was alone in N City, did she realize how difficult and distressing the life was, and did she remember Diana’s goodness as well as Judson’s.

Looking at Sally’s regretful tears with complex feelings in her mind, Diana turned to look at Judson, with prayers in her eyes, who wanted to ask Judson to forgive Sally.

Seeing Diana looking at Judson, Sally took a deep breath, knowing well in her mind how disgusting she was to Judson, and how she treated Judson over the past year.

Sally walked to Judson and began to slap herself violently, sparing no efforts to slap herself, with all her strength...

Judson frowned more deeply, and he couldn’t stand this kind of scene. When he left N City, he didn’t want to see this woman anymore in his life. Besides, she was just Diana’s foster mother, but Diana still had affection for her.

Watching Sally keeping slapping herself at this moment, he understood that Sally wanted him to vent his anger. So Sally didn’t stop since he didn’t ask her to. When Sally was about to give herself a slap again, Judson took hold of her hand.

With half face swollen, Sally looked at Judson with complex feelings, “Judson, I am so sorry for the past, who had made Diana and you suffer a lot, sorry. If you want to vent more anger, just slap me. I have suffered a lot over the past half year, and now I just want you to have a good life together with Diana. I will never ask for anything else...”

Judson looked up and took a deep breath. When he looked down at Sally again, he sighed deeply. No matter how Sally treated him before, she was Diana’s mother after all. No matter how deep Judson’s resentment was, he would never really slap her.

Judson sighed deeply, looked at Sally and said, “Mom, everything has gone, and I am still your son-in-law from now on. Diana and I will be filial to you in the future...”

“Well, it’s all my fault, which has made both of you suffer a lot... You both just relax, and I will go out to do some grocery shopping...” Sally burst into tears at this moment. After speaking, Sally wiped her tears with sleeve and went out...

After Sally left, Diana glanced at Judson and said frowning, “Judson, I am tired, and I want to stay alone to relax myself...”

Judson nodded and said, “Well, then I’ll take my leave...”

Hardly had Judson walked to the door when Diana suddenly stopped him, “Judson, there is a birthday party tonight for my grandma. Could you go with me?”

Judson frowned, “Diana, they treat you very badly. Do you still want to go?”

Diana sighed, “Perhaps I will go because the company has gone bankrupt and grandma has a big company in N City. I will go to talk with her tonight to see if I can find a job in the Shaw family’s company...”

“Don’t go to beg them!” Hardly had Diana finished her words when Judson directly refused subconsciously.

The Shaw family indeed had a company in N City, whose scale was not small at all. Although it couldn’t compare with the Ray Group, it was a company worth billions of dollars.

The reason why Judson didn’t allow Diana to look for the Shaw family was totally because those people of the Shaw family looked down not only on him, but also on Diana and her father all the time. After Sally was married into the Shaw family, she didn’t give birth to even a child for the Shaw family during the past 20 years. Therefore, those people of the Shaw family always ignored Diana and Sally after Diana’s father’s death...

Looking at Judson who was full of anger, Diana knew Judson didn’t want her to be a doormat. Feeling moved in her mind, Diana bit her lips and said to Judson, “Judson, I know you are afraid I will be looked down on and be wronged. But this kind of grievance don’t count for much to me. Don’t worry. It will be fine...”

Judson turned to stare firmly at Diana’s eyes, and said with a confident tone, “Diana, I swear that I will never let you be wronged for the whole life! Not to be even a little! Well, I will go to look for Bruce and help you seek a job in the Ray Group. Isn’t it better than working in the Shaw family’s company?”

When Judson was speaking, Diana suddenly felt a domineering aura from Judson. Feeling Judson’s defense for her, Diana was very moved in her mind...

“Well...” Diana nodded lightly.

After talking with Diana for another while, Judson left. The anger had come to his mind completely. The Shaw family was all snobbish without any kind-hearted people. When he was married into the Shaw family, not only to him, they always said more scornful and jeering words to Diana, with all kinds of disdains and humiliations, all addressed to Diana and him.

After Diana’s father’s death, Diana didn’t take away even a cent of her father’s shares in the Shaw family. Well, not even a cent! So Diana tried her best to start her own business, and she had suffered a lot, which could not be expressed in words…

Judson clenched his fists, narrowed his eyes and murmured in his mind, “Well, the Shaw family, this time I will ask you to give back all that you owe Diana and me!” Judson was not a saint, who could forgive Sally, but not those people of the Shaw family, never in his life.

Coming back this time, he would not hide his capacities anymore, who wanted the whole N City to shake under his feet and would like to conquer a city as a present for Diana and his wedding in order to give Diana glory and happiness for the whole life!

Judson took a deep breath, and hardly had he driven out of the neighborhood to the main road when he saw from the rearview mirror that Sally was apologizing desperately to a group of hooligans, bowing and scraping, with a basket of vegetables in her hand.

One of those hooligans robbed Sally of her wallet, took away the only several hundred dollars remaining in it, and even gave Sally a brutal kick. But in despite of this, Sally was still apologizing to the hooligans.

Judson faintly heard Sally saying she would definitely pay something back and telling them to give her a few more days… Then those hooligans left. After that, Sally picked herself up from the ground, cleaned up the dust on her and walked home limping…

Looking at the receding figures of those hooligans, Judson narrowed his eyes and understood why Sally, who had been so tart and mean before, had become so now. Sure enough, an evil person needed to be tortured by the same ones.

However, since Diana and he had already forgiven Sally now, he had to intervene in Sally’s business…

“Well, Sally, what you finally have done correctly this time is to beg for Diana’s forgiveness…” Judson said to himself.
