Chapter 596 - 590: Call Her Mom 3
This is too great, no doubt about it, Mr. Ford must have come up with this idea first, and Aiden Shaw supported it unconditionally.
Her heart surged with a rush of emotions, indescribable excitement.
Sour, sour, she’s feeling jealous.
Tiana Thorne’s eyes flickered, raising her brow, "So is Ms. Jarvis here as a mediator this time, or to ask me to stay away from Maxim? Without me, he might not do such crazy things?"
After pretending to break up in front of my mom last time, this is the big move that followed, as a mother, she must feel angry inside.
Rouge Jarvis stared at her for a moment, as if trying to understand her, and she only found her calm and unperturbed, with slightly squinting eyes, saying, "The former."
Tiana Thorne pressed her lips, "At this point, shouldn’t you continue insisting on your previous thoughts?"
Her posture was poised, her voice slightly lighter than her prior commanding tone, "He’s my son, I know him better than anyone, if he can do this, it means he can’t forget you. As a mother, I only hope my child can be happy. As long as he’s well, I don’t mind bowing to you once."
Upon hearing this, Tiana Thorne’s heart unexpectedly stirred a little.
She thought Ms. Jarvis would never bow to anyone for someone, but didn’t expect her to do so for her own son.
Her children must be very blessed.
Her brothers are well-mannered, cultured, obviously raised by a good family.
Thinking of this, her heart couldn’t help but feel a little bittersweet.
If she hadn’t been taken away back then, mom would surely have pampered her like this too.
Rouge Jarvis was utterly serious, her expression equally intense, "You can tell me your true thoughts, if your heart truly isn’t with my son, the Ford family can pick it up and put it down. But if you keep stringing him along, as a mother, I’ll be the first to disagree."
"Would you accept me?"
She was slightly startled, not expecting that after saying so much, she would care about this question. She furrowed her slender brows slightly before replying, "I will try to accept you for my son."
Oh my...
It seems mom still doesn’t truly like her.
She didn’t say anything, grabbed her phone, and right in front of Ms. Jarvis, dialed Maxim Ford’s number.
Rouge Jarvis didn’t understand what she was up to, nor did she know whom she was calling.
Beep—
It rang once, and Maxim Ford answered.
She had it on speakerphone.
Maxim Ford was very concerned about her health, afraid she wouldn’t get enough rest, so he didn’t call to check in. Instead, he always got the actual situation from Aiden Shaw. Suddenly receiving her call, his voice was exceptionally gentle, "Tiana, you..."
Afraid her brother might reveal something, she softly interrupted him, "Maxim, thank you, mom’s here to see me on your behalf, let’s reconcile."
Maxim Ford, "..."
He instantly understood, his voice warm and slightly pained, "Alright, take care of yourself, I’ll see you when I return home."
She nodded again, mischievously glancing at mom, deliberately teasing, "You focus on work, mom will take good care of me."
"Mom."
Rouge Jarvis didn’t expect her to be so direct. Visiting her in the hospital was carried out secretly from Maxim, suddenly revealed by her. Feeling embarrassed, her cheeks flushed a bit, she had to take over the phone, "What’s going on?"
Maxim Ford’s voice was somewhat emotional, sensing a rare chance for interaction between the mother and daughter, he needed to bind them together, "Mom, I don’t know when I’ll be back, during this period, it’s tough for you here with Tiana."
Rouge Jarvis was slightly stunned, "..."
Tiana Thorne said some courteous words to reassure her son, and as a result, he genuinely thought she was here to serve her.
Once again Maxim Ford’s gentle voice came through, "There are vanilla-flavored candies in the table in my room, take some for her provided it doesn’t affect her recovery, also, she likes grapes and watermelons, you’ll need to put in some effort."
Rouge Jarvis, "...???"
"Mom, I’m busy here, I’ll hang up first, take care of yourself."
Beep, beep, beep...
Rouge Jarvis, "...?"
May Sloane almost burst into laughter, Mr. Ford, having spent so much time with Tiana, naturally learned Tiana’s essence — lying with eyes wide open, not even taking a breath.
After the call ended, Tiana Thorne looked at her innocently, her charming fox-like eyes blinking repeatedly, that look, made one feel tenderhearted.
Rouge Jarvis felt trapped yet unable to get angry, for Tiana Thorne had told Maxim about her supporting him, willing to try accepting her for his sake.
Maxim knowing this would surely be happy.
At the same time, it gave Tiana a chance to bond with her future mother-in-law, indeed calculative, and deeply so.
May Sloane, observing countless emotions flickering in Rouge Jarvis’ eyes, couldn’t help but feel nervous for Tiana Thorne’s brothers.
Once Ms. Jarvis finds out Tiana is her biological daughter, the concept of a daughter-in-law doesn’t exist at all, the Ford family sons will surely face trouble.
Tiana Thorne chuckled, continued playing the innocent, "Actually, I don’t need you to take care of..."
Rouge Jarvis interrupted her, "During this period, I’ll stay with you until you recover, then I’ll leave."
She nodded, showing a sweet smile.
A little anticipation for some friction with mom.
"Parting Brother-in-Law."
"Yes."
"Go to the old house and bring my toiletries over."
Tiana Thorne chimed in, "Also candies and fruits."
Rouge Jarvis frowned at her, coldly said, "You’re a patient, can eating these help you recover faster? From now on, a nutritionist will prepare your meals."
She nodded, though her eyes still twinkled slightly with the love for candies.
May Sloane could hardly imagine their days living together; it would surely be a battlefield.
Yet, it felt exciting.
Hoping Tiana and Ms. Jarvis could spark familial love.
Tiana Thorne felt unwell, she moved her lips, saying, "Ms. Jarvis, I’m a bit tired, I’ll sleep for a while, feel free."
Suddenly forced to care for a daughter-in-law not yet betrothed, always felt uncomfortable, so she ignored her.
She didn’t mind either, leisurely lying down, then closing her eyes.
Three minutes later.
Rouge Jarvis noticed the quilt was at her chest, her brows slightly moved, ultimately, she went over to tuck her in, then checked the world, recording her sleep time.
Actually, she hadn’t fallen asleep, couldn’t open her eyes at this moment.
She discovered her mom was a bit verbally cold but physically sincere, can’t hit her mom’s pride otherwise she’d be embarrassed, wouldn’t care for her like this in the future.
The feeling suddenly turned sweet, gradually slipping into dreams.
...
In the afternoon, Tiana Thorne woke up.
Opening her eyes, she saw Ms. Jarvis had fallen asleep on the sofa.
Her gaze fell on the coffee table, a transparent glass jar in the center, filled with candies her brother bought for her.
