Boss's Sweet Secretary novel Chapter 50

Hans's mother, Alice's depression was caused by Thomas's mistress. Due to Hans's young age, she had to suppress her depression until she passed Hans everything that belonged to him. After that, she lost the will to live and gradually lost her senses. It was difficult for her to even keep her food down.

Hans took her to the hospital for a physical examination only to receive a diagnosis of late-stage stomach cancer. All the doctors attributed her depression to cancer. It wasn't until after the car accident when the hospital gave Thomas her death certificate to sign only he knew that his wife hadn't had much time left, even without the car accident.

Half a year ago, when Hans came back from a business trip, he found his mother's diary in the attic of Thomas's house. It recorded every detail since Stephanie entered their lives. From the initial distraught to acceptance, to struggling to come to terms, to the incoherence, where she had already shown signs of depression.

It was all because of Stephanie and Thomas.

However, as karma would have it, the two sources of evil died in a car accident a year ago. So even though Hans knew the truths, he could no longer find anyone to vent his anger on.

There was only Jennifer left.

The moonlight peeked through the gap of the curtain and fell on the girl's face. The moonlight faintly reflected her delicate features.

Standing by the bed, Hans stared at her for a long time.

He thought over and over about what his mother said when she was seriously ill, "If you fall out of love with her, you must tell her. It's better to break up than lead her on."

Instead of saying that he had tortured her for half a year, it was more like he had tortured himself for half a year.

He did not get any of the joy from getting revenge on her. Every time he hurt her, his guilt and remorse stayed with him all night, keeping him up.

Perhaps letting her go was also letting himself go.

The next morning, when Jennifer woke up, Hans was having breakfast downstairs. When she saw the time on her cell phone, she jumped up from the bed and rushed into the bathroom to wash her face and put on makeup in a panic.

Nancy stood at the table and saw Jennifer rushing downstairs.

"Miss Jennifer, do you want pancake or waffle for breakfast?"

Jennifer glanced at the back of Hans's head and swallowed. "Waffle... Forget it. I don't have time, just give me two slices of bread. I have a bus to catch."

Hans glanced at her lightly. "Sit down and have breakfast, I'll drive you to the company."

These words coming from Hans's mouth sounded as unlikely as pigs flying.

Jennifer was a little flustered and sat down dubiously.

Nancy quickly brought her a plate of waffles.

"From tomorrow onwards, you will move back to grandma's place."

Hearing these words, Jennifer froze. She abruptly raised her head to look at Hans, only to find that he wasn't even looking at her. He was calmly eating his pancake, expressionless, emotionless. As if he didn't say anything and it was just her imagination.

"What?"

"I'm not going to marry you, so starting tomorrow, you'll move back to grandma's place."

Hans raised his head and stared at her with his cold eyes, without any emotion.

Jennifer wanted to find a trace of reluctance in his eyes, or even a trace of peculiarness, but she couldn't.
