Chapter 20 - A Mothers Love (2/2)

Just thinking back on all of this, Madam Li became teary but she quickly smiled instead. She must be strong for both of them.

”Am I being too much of a nagging mother?”

Kris smiled as his mother's mood lightened up too. ”You can nag me as much as you want. You are my mother.”

”Then I do have something I want to ask you for.”

”Hmm?”

”I want you to retract your ban on the Shen Industry.”

Kris was a bit astonished. Was this what Lena Shen planned by auctioning the necklace? Was it to get on the good side of his mother? His eyes turned deadly and the temperature of the room dropped cold.

”You need to stop playing hard to get and be softer or all of the girls will run away from you.” Madam Li interrupted his moment of killing intentions.

”I will do as you say.”

”Ah? Also, be sure I am invited to the SHYNE opening ceremony.”

”Is that all?”

”En. And by the way, I will stop forcing you to meet girls now. If I want you to be soft on others too, I should be softer on you too.” Madam Li knew that pushing him too much may not be good. So for now, she will let time be the leader.

”It's late, you should go to bed.” Kris gestured for one of the workers to take his mother to bed.

”Kris… I love you.”

”I love you too, Mom.”

Kris smiled as his mother went to her room. He looked at his hands and his heart felt stressed. He loved no one more than his mother, but why is it that he can't touch her too? He does not dispised her nor fear her... why?

His hands folded into a fist as his anger and killer eyes returns.

'Looks like I have underestimated you, Lena Shen.'
