Chapter 225 I’m Looking For Someone Rich
After entering the car, Noah looks worriedly at me and says, “Jane, you really cannot remain by the
side of Frances. It’s too dangerous. Let’s get married, and I will protect you.”
I thought that I had already made myself clear to Noah but I never expect him to be so persistent.
I shake my head and as I am about to speak, Steven suddenly turns around and says, “I’m sorry, you
are slightly late. Jane is now my girlfriend.”
Noah’s expression turns for the worse as soon as he hears. My silence is a tacit affirmation.
“Noah, take good care of yourself from now on. We are worlds apart. You can see for yourself that I’m a
materialistic woman. I want to find a rich man and you do not fit my requirements.”
Noah’s expression alternates between pale and red and looks horrible. I know that it is extremely
hurtful to him but if that can kill his hopes, then it is actually a good thing.
He laughs coldly and says to me, “Jane, I really misjudged you. But one day I will become a person
that you can’t get. By that time, I won’t even bat an eyelid even if you kneel and beg to me!”
Noah exits the car and shuts the door furiously.
My heart starts to relax. At least Noah will disassociate from my matters from now on. He is such a nice
person and should never be entangled in my affairs.
I smile towards Steven and say, “Let’s go to where my mom lives. I want to see her.” Steven nods and
sends me to my mother’s place and then leaves.
Since I have the keys to the apartment, I open the door to enter. Mom is sitting on the wheelchair trying
hard to cook a pot of porridge.
Frank on the other hand is in his room playing LOL on his computer. Does he expect to mom to wait on
him in her present condition?
“Franck, get the hell out!” I rush to the room and yell.
Frank turns his head reluctantly and retorts, “What’s there to yell? Are you afraid that we don’t know
that you’re back?”
“Why are you letting mom cook? Can’t you see that mom’s leg is hurt?”
“He had been busy at work the entire day. It’s alright, let him relax.” Mom tries to calm the situation.
It has always been like that at home. Mom will never blame him regardless of what Frank does.
But now that such a huge change has happened to the family, who will hold up the family if Frank
continues in this manner? I’m someone who can’t even see my future, must this family continue to
depend on me?
“Mom, don’t continue to spoil him. Don’t you know that he has made so many errors because of your
coddling? If he continues this way, will you want to see him going into jail again?”
Mom wouldn’t say anything and remains quiet at one side.
I turn towards Frank and says solemnly, “From today onwards, if you can’t take up the responsibility as
the man of the house, don’t blame me for having Frances send you back to jail!”
My words startle Frank and he quickly rushes over to take the ladle in mom’s hand and says, “Mom, I’ll
cook. You should take a rest.”
At that moment, I feel that my mother’s eyes fill up with tears.
Perhaps Frank is worried that I’ll send him back to jail at least he is very obedient during the two hours
that I am present. I guide him to cook two dishes and after we eat as a family, he goes to do the dishes.
I clean up around the house before giving the few hundred yuan that I have remaining to my mother, “I
really do not have any money left. I’ll get my salary after a few days. This money should be enough for
you till then. Now that Frank has a job, once he starts to get his salary, I will not be supporting the
family anymore. I hope that you don’t continue to spoil him but teach him to grow up.”
Mother seems to understand and nods. I also feel at ease and leave.
I really hope that what I say will achieve its purpose. I take a taxi back to Frances’ place. When I arrive,
I see him sitting at the dining table, and directly opposite him is Whitney, smiling from ear to
ear!
