Daddy, Chasing Mommy Back is On Us!

"You should try to get in contact with her. Even if she's a wife and a mother now, at least you'd know if she's doing well," Selena commented.

Jason gave her a faint smile. "I did try to look for her at first, but I couldn't track her down at all. I don't have a lot of influence in Astoria, and finding someone in a place like that is an extremely troublesome job. Furthermore, I have too many things to deal with here, and I really can't leave right now. I want to look for her, but I simply don't have the time and energy to do so now."

"I can get Pierre to do this. He'd be glad to do it." Selena was certain that Pierre would willingly hunt the woman down when he found out that Jason actually fancied another woman. Pierre probably wouldn't give up until he found the woman, but Jason's response came as a surprise to her. "It's fine, Selena."

"What do you mean?" she asked.

"It's really fine now. I really wanted to find her a few years ago, and I really wanted to know if she was doing well. However, I've moved past it now. If I find her, if we meet each other now, all of that would only cause me more troubles," he explained.

Selena vaguely understood what he meant by that. I guess they'd only suffer more because the both of them can't be with each other. He might even cause further trouble to the woman. It has been such a long time, and they're both different people now. Holding on to that lovely memory of the past may be better than tearing it apart with the present-day reality.

"Alright then." Selena gave him a smile, but she no longer made any comments on that topic. "One way or another, I really don't like Jane at all. You should call the marriage off if you don't like her, Jason." "You want me to break off the engagement?" He flashed a bitter grin. "Things aren't as easy as they seem. The Oberlins are not going to agree with it, and both Grandpa and Grandma won't support the idea either." Jason had completely disregarded his influence over his own marriage at that point. He had accepted the fact that his family had arranged the marriage and that it was his inescapable fate to go along with it.

"Don't give up so soon, Jason. How are you so sure that it's going to be hard to call the marriage off? Do you know who Pierre's grandfather is?" she asked.

Jason stared at her puzzledly.

"Grandpa might not have told you about this, but Pierre's grandfather is Admiral Evan Moody. Would the Murrays still have to worry about the Oberlins you guys have the

support of Evan's family? Donne

worry, I'll make sure to get this issue settled for you," Selena said. Jason had been there for her during her toughest period, so she was

determined to resolve his issues for him as well.

Later, she also sent Pierre the details about the woman to get Pierre to track her down. His response was just as she had expected, for he immediately sent his men to conduct their investigations. Selena, on the other hand, went to speak to Jerry next.

Jerry had been spending most of his

time with Lindsay. Although reuniting with Selena and having Selena's newborn baby at home

seemed to have made.net

little livelier, she was still old; she was in her eighties, and was too weak to stay around for much longer.

Selena walked into the room to see Jerry sitting by Lindsay's bedside and talking to her. "Grandpa," Selena called.

"You're here, Selena. I was telling your grandmother about your mother as a child." There was a hint of sadness that seemed permanently etched onto the skin between Jerry's brows.

Selena walked toward him and pulled herself another chair to sit beside him. Lindsay's gaze softened when she saw Selena in the room. "How are you feeling, Grandma?"

"I'm afraid your grandmother isn't going to be able to hang on for much longer. It was already a miracle that she managed to witness your return and the birth of

your child, Selena," Jerry uttere. 19

with

a sigh. Lindsay was the only one who knew that she would have probably died a long while ago if it weren't for the fact that she had one final, unresolved desire to see her grandchild.

"Don't say that, Grandpa," Selena said.

He shook his head. "I know her condition, and I know what's going on in her mind. I'm not sad, Selena. If anything, I feel really comforted. Your grandmother has suffered a lot, and it's about time we free her from this pain."

Selena felt tears welling up in her eyes.

"You're back now, and your baby's born. All that's left is Jason's marriage now. I want to make sure the wedding happens soon so that your grandmother will be able to shut her eyes in peace," he continued.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
