Chapter 10

After lunch, Justin and Roger Jones sat in the tea room and drank tea while discussing business matters. Sandra folded her sleeves in the living room and said,

- Oceane, sitting on the couch. Let me help you take a look and see what is wrong with your leg.

- Sandra, I know you did it intentionally. Oceane said in a low voice as she looked fiercely at Sandra. She was sitting on the couch.

- I can also tell you clearly that my injury has long since healed. My leg does not hurt at all.

Sandra giggled. She had seen it before when they were upstairs. Oceania's leg wasn't hurt at all. She had taken the trouble to act realistically for a purpose.

- I was just approaching Justin Lu, Oceane continued, every socialite in a city wants a man like this. Do you think he is yours once married? How naive! Such a man can have countless women in his whole life. He belongs to whoever gets things and love from him.

Sandra crouched in front of Oceania and said coldly,

- tel mother tel daughter. Oceane, you are indeed the daughter of Jiang Annabelle.

Oceane raised her chin and said:

- That's right, and I will steal Justin like my mother stole daddy from your mother. Even if I don't succeed, there are still others! Anyway, Sandra, I will not let you go easily!

His biggest enemy in this life was Sandra.

When they were little, Sandra was the first daughter of the Jones family in this house. She accompanied her parents to various places and was loved and praised. She, however, could not even tell the others who her father was.

As they grew older, and even though she had become the second daughter of the Jones family, Sandra, who was abroad, was often raised by others. These ladies remembered how smart and beautiful Sandra was as a child. And these playful young masters would treat meeting Sandra when they were abroad as an experience they could brag about. They said as if they had met the president, "Oh, I met Sandra Jones of the Jones family again. Hehe, she's getting more and more beautiful. "

Although she carries the title of "illegitimate daughter," she could never take it back. It was like she could never keep up with Sandra.

What made her most angry was that Sandra could smile no matter what threat she faced. Just like now.

- I know a lot of people want to be Mrs. Lu. And I know you want it more than anyone. Sandra blinked and smiled. But before you can become Mrs. Lu, you have to make a trip to the hospital.

Oceania's expression has changed.

- Sandra Jones, what are you going to do?

- Do you want to know? Sandra smiles brightly. Then look.

She stood up and called. Then she walked over to Roger Jones' side and said:

- Dad, the injury to Oceania's leg is very serious. I think there's something wrong. She's in terrible pain. We have to hurry and get her to the hospital. But me and... justin, we have something to do and we have to go back, so I called the ambulance.

Jiang Annabelle knew that Oceane's wound had healed long ago. Sandra was obviously trying to make a joke to Oceane but she couldn't say anything. Her hand was shaking because she was furious but could not say much. There were several times when she thought she was almost going to pass out.

The ambulance sirens could be heard any minute. Sandra excitedly told the doctor that the injured person was Oceane.

The doctor helped Oceane onto a stretcher. Oceane felt aggrieved and angry, but could not say anything as she looked at Sandra. In the end, she could only let herself get carried away.

Sandra felt that there wasn't much fun to be had there anymore. She smiled at Justin and said:

- We should go. Do you have anything later?

- Director Jones, I'll take Sandra home first.

Justin naturally held Sandra's hand. He saw an angry and disappointed Roger Jones being chased by the ambulance as they left the house. The corners of his lips turned up and he said:

- You did it deliberately.

Sandra blinked innocently and said:

- Big brother Justin, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand?

- ...

Justin Lu's lips turned up.

In the car, Sandra leaned against the window and said lazily,

- Justin, I don't want to go home now. Send me somewhere else.

Sandra's mother was buried in a cemetery in the countryside north of the city.

- Thank you for sending me here. Sandra got out of the car. Then, she continued, Go home first. I'll call a cab later.

She turned away and walked up the stairs to find the familiar grave and found it soon after.

Her mother in the photo on the headstone was what Sandra remembered from her last time. She was in her forties, but she cared well for herself and looked to be in her thirties. Her smile was as warm as the sun on a winter day.

Sandra still remembered that when she was little, the thing her mother feared most was aging. She bent down and placed the carnations she brought. Then she stroked her mother's picture and said, "Mom, you always said you would grow old. I'm already married, but you still look like this. Rest assured, you haven't aged at all.

''Yes, I am married to Aunt Abelia's son. You were saying that problems between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law are difficult and that you are afraid I won't know how to handle them after I get married. Rest assured now. Aunt Abelia is very nice to me and we have no conflicts. "

...

Sandra knew her mother couldn't hear her. But she still wanted to tell her mother that. That's because she also knew that if the incident nine years ago hadn't happened, these would be things her mother would want to know.

And just like that, Sandra stood in front of her mother's grave and slowly ran away for an entire afternoon. She didn't come to her senses until the sun began to set. She smiled at the yellowing photo of her mother and said, "Mom, I'm leaving now. I'll come back and visit you next time. "

Sandra realized something on the way back. It was hard to hail a cab here, how would she get back?

Just as she was worried about this, she suddenly saw a familiar car near the road. It was Justin's Aston Martin ONE 77.

Didn't Justin leave? Had he been waiting for her all this time?

For some reason, Sandra's heart felt like it was floating. She felt it was rather incredulous.

- You finally got off. Julien coll rolled down the car windows and looked at Sandra.

- I thought you would stay here until it got dark. He would be afraid to die if that happened, right?

Sandra looked strangely at Julian Coll who was sitting in the driver's seat.

- How come ... it's you?

- Are you very disappointed? Julian Coll smiled. Your Boss Lu has something to do, so he told me to wait for you here.

Disappointed? Sandra of course wouldn't be disappointed. She was just surprised - that Justin would ask someone to wait for him here. Did he know that it was difficult to hail a cab here? Eh, he wouldn't be so thoughtful.

Julien Coll opened the passenger door and said:

- Come on, I'll send you back.

Sandra sat down on the seat and fastened her seatbelt and said:

- Thank you.

- You're welcome. I am Lu Justin's assistant after all.

Julien Coll started the car with resignation.

- If we neglect everything he told us to do, we might be sent to Africa.

Sandra was speechless.
