A Relentless Pursuit for Love
Chapter 410

Chapter 410 It should have been an extremely ordinary thing for a son to be giving a massage to hismother, who had two crippled legs. However, such an image of a son caring for his loving motherwas too rare for Freya and Jace.

They seemed to have already forgotten the last time both the mother and son could converse witheach other calmly. It felt like it was ages ago.

Freya was a little embarrassed. She was afraid her son's knee would hurt from kneeling, and shewanted to stop him from massaging her. However, Freya's personal butler, Aunt Wendy,perceptively brought in a round stool. “Jace, the floor is cold. Sit on this. Miss Freya's legs need tobe properly massaged.” After that, she even winked at Freya before she went out. Freya thought,"This woman..." Jace sat on the stool and massaged his mother's legs with the utmost attention. “Iwill accompany you to the hospital tomorrow for a follow-up checkup.” Freya rejected him without asecond thought. “There's no need for that. They won't get better anyway. Why waste the time...”Jace lifted his head, looked at her, and was very persistent. “You must go.”

Freya was speechless. She pursed her lips. “Fine. I'll go. It's no big deal anyway.” Jace's coldexpression became a little gentle...

The room was silent for a long while. Freya then suddenly opened her mouth and said,” You'vemade a trip to Brown City, so have you met Lucas and Luna?”

Jace lightly stopped massaging her legs. “How did you know?” “A friend of mine attended the winetasting event and said that you guys were there.” Jace plainly uttered, “Mmhmm." He initiallythought his mother was about to bad mouth his father and Luna, but she did not mention themInstead, she simply looked at Jace emotionally. Her throat was a little dry when she said, “About thethings back then, it was me, your mother, who wronged you.”

Jace lifted his eyes a little, and he looked shocked.

Freya leaned back on the chair. Her face had already aged, but she was still very charming. Herattractiveness was still evident on her face.

She wore a never-before-seen miserable smile, and she sighed softly. “I'm not sure if it's because Ihave gotten older. Recently, I've recalled some things from a

long time ago. I have been very stubborn since I was born. It was also something that I developedafter being spoiled by your grandparents. I am condescending and arrogant.”

Freya evaluated herself as she took another look at her son again.

“You should know that I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth. When I was a child, our familywas not wealthy. Your grandpa was still selling antiques. There were more broken bricks andsmashed tiles than bread at home. However, despite being poor, I had great ambition, and I neverthought that I was lesser than others.

“Later on, I didn't even finish high school, and I followed your grandfather and dove into doingbusiness. The Yuriel family’s business got bigger and bigger. I also grew up along with it andreached a suitable age to be married.”

Jace had never heard that from his mother previously, but it was not unfamiliar to him. He heard alittle from his grandparents about his mother's experience growing up.

He knew that the Yuriel family had the vast business because his mother had contributedsignificantly. Unfortunately, she was also the one who had suffered the most among her siblings."At that time, I was not that young. Your grandparents were extremely worried as they were afraid Icouldn't get married. They then made arrangements for me to go on blind dates. However, I hadvery high standards. Those so-called rich men from wealthy families either did not look good orwere so vulgar that they kept talking about money every time they spoke. I did not fancy any ofthem at all. In the end, I got together with Lucas.” Freya smiled mockingly. “When I was young, I hadno idea what a man from a humble background would be like. I only felt that it would all be fine aslong as two people loved each other deeply, so why don't I just marry someone handsome that Iliked then? I didn't care about having similar backgrounds, the status of a person, and whatnot. Asfor what happened after that, you already know about it as well..."

Of course, Jace knew about it. To be more specific, he had witnessed it with his own eyes. Hisparents, who were initially very lovely, turned against one another.

His family, who was initially happy, became broken. He had been involved in the entire process andalso understood the reasons. However, he still did not know how it ended up like that.

Why would two people who used to love each other suddenly stop loving each other? If love couldvanish so quickly, then how did all those great love stories through the years

since ancient times come about?

Jace could not understand, so he did not believe in love, much less marriage.

Love was too short-lived. Marriage was also something flashy that had no actual substance. As aresult, he could barely hold on to those who loved him.
