My Paranoid Lover (Lance Mason) novel Chapter 115

Chapter 115 Mother Died

Traised an eyebrow. “What? I’m busy.”

Leo took in a huge breath and stared at me, “Your mother passed away. Brother and I didn’t want to tell you, because we were afraid that it will ruin your life again, but then although you and your mother weren’t on good terms, she’s still your mother, so we wanted to let you know, her body is still in the funeral parlor. Brother said to wait for you to come back and handle this.”

I was frozen in my seat, like what Leo said, no matter how much I hated mom, she’s still my mother!

My heart ached, how did she die? She was such a selfish woman, she wouldn’t possibly just die like this. I   mom, the woman that I used to protect.

“How……did she die?” I asked after a long moment of silence.

“Cancer.” Leo answered shortly.

I looked up at him and asked, “You’re sure it’s not something that your family did?”

Leo knitted his eyebrows together, he seemed to be upset that I spoke like that. “Jennie, we are not that cruel.”

I laughed coldly. “Haha….yea, you guys are not cruel, you and your brother and your grandmother, all of you are good guys. It was me and my mom, we are the bad guys. So we don’t deserve a good life, maybe this is God’s punishment to us. Because we were too horrible.”

“Jennie, I didn’t mean that.” Leo said while reaching out his hands. He wanted to touch my head, but I slapped   gave her all my money, so she would be able to live a normal life. I even planned to go back and bring her to Germany

But, she’s dead, how……?

“Are you……Iying to me?” my voice was shaking.

Leo shook his head. “Why would I lie to you?”

I couldn’t accept it, Leo didn’t look like he was lying to me. I lowered down my head and let my tears rolled down uncontrollably this time, I really am an orphan

I suddenly regret. Why did I have to treat her that way? I didn’t even bothered to call her during my time

overseas.

Now she’s dead, only did I realize that I still cared for her. No matter how bad she was as a mother, she’s still my

Theard him zipping his pants on the other side of the phone, I didn’t know if

woman.

“Where are you?” he asked.

I told him I was at home. He arrived at my place in minutes and hugged me,

I cried like there is no tomorrow. He offered to come with me but I rejected. I wanted to settle this as soon as possible and came back to Germany. I never want to go back to Denmark ever again.

The next day, he insisted to send me off, we met Leo in the airport, Javier

didn’t ask me who Leo was.

I followed Leo into the plane. he sat with me in the economy seat.

In the plane, Leo slept for a while. He woke up and saw my red eyes, he   his hands away. “You know damn well you mean this!” I yelled.

I was emotionally unstable, I forgot we were in public.

The next day, I followed Leo back to Denmark. A day before, Javier told me he wanted to accompany me back. Ever since I started dating Bosco, me and Javier became distant. He didn’t hang out with me anymore, so I didn’t call him anymore. Even when we see each other in classes, we just nodded.

But I was in pain when I heard that mom died, and the first person who

came to mind was not Bosco, it was this guy, who was 3 years younger than me.

He didn’t pick up the phone for a long time and I thought he did it on purpose. Just when I was about to hang up, he picked up the call. “Javier, my mom died, I’m upset.”

But I never expected the person he was talking about, was a little kid who was one year old……

**( Leo’s POV: Karen, Jennie’s mother, was brought back to the Mason’s family during brother’s wedding. I thought brother was doing it on purpose. But I was wrong, brother let her come back was one of his way to indirectly pay back Jennie for what he had done. Just before something ugly happened, I had a talk with brother, he asked me if I hated him.

I asked him, why would I hate him.

Brother said: Didn’t you like Jennie?

I was careless that time, I didn’t notice that he called her Jennie, not Jennie Gomez.

I said: I should thank brother for showing me her true colours. I like clean

wanted to comfort me but seeing my behaviour, he gave up.

After a long moment, he said, “Brother divorced, did you know?”

“And? What does this have to do with me?” I asked.

“nothing, I just wanted to let you know, you won’t see someone you don’t like when you get back. Don’t worry.” He said.

Perhaps, to him, the person that I didn’t want to see was Lance’s wife, no wait, ex-wife Tiffany Abel. But no, the people that I didn’t want to see, was both of them.

After a while, he spoke again, “But you might see another person, someone that you might find hard to accept.”

I thought he was talking about

Lace or their grandmother.

and innocent women, she’s dirty and not clean anymore, plus I know I only liked her, I never loved her. Maybe it was because I grew up with her. There was

no love.

Plus, the person I love the most is my brother, just like how he loved me the most.

But then after a long time, I realized brother had stopped loving me the most a long time ago. I wasn’t the one he loved the most anymore.

We were on top of a hill, in a villa, when we talked about this. Brother apologised to me, he said he isn’t a good brother. Because he snatched the woman his own brother liked. He even told me about his dreams.

I was stunned, I never expected Jennie to be the woman in my brother’s dream for so long. I didn’t like Jennie

anymore at that time, so brother’s sorry meant nothing to me.

Brother told me a lot of stuff that night. The villa had no internet connection, so we talked and talked. With red eyes, brother cried to me and said, “Leo, sorry, I think I really like her, I like her so much, can you stop liking her?”

I said I stopped liking her a long time ago. And I told brother that he shouldn’t fall for a woman like her, because she isn’t a good woman. I told brother to just live his life with Tiffany, but at that time I didn’t know it was an arranged business marriage. When we left the place, the world changed, about the tabloids and the news about Jennie….. Brother went mad and immediately called someone to handle this. Then after that I only got to know   that Jennie was pregnant with brother’s child. Brother didn’t like her, he has already fallen deep in love with her. It was love and only love that made him allow Jennie to bare his child, because I know my brother very well. He would not allow any woman to bare his child no matter what, except for the woman he loves.)
