CHAPTER 89
"You are smart. Also, how would you know about Alex if you did not have someone following me?" Jade challenged.
"I would take that as a compliment, mum."
"It was intended to be dear. Anyways, what brings you here? Since you are smart, you should know you are not to be here or close to Alex. "
"Exactly what my next question was going to be. What the hell did you mean by making her prepare a one month leave for me?"
"What do you mean by what I meant?"
"You know what I am saying, mum. Why? I just needed two weeks."
"Your health as well. All of this was rushed, do not forget that but I believe it would also help you heal being with someone who loves you."
"Loves me, hahahaa…" Instantly the expression on her face changed to a cold one. "With you, I need not pretend. So please define love, MOTHER."
She made sure the emphasis was placed on the last word, to remind her mother she was still her daughter.
