Spoiling Uncle

Although He Susu left the room with a placid look, inwardly she had some heavy feelings. Zhou Ning's words had struck where it hurt. The fact that she missed out on precious years of her son could not be disregarded. And it was the cruel reality of life.

"Su," Zhu Chen placed his hands on her shoulders and looked at her with a sad smile on his face. "If we'll let her words get to us, we'll be letting her win. Don't let her guilt trip you in this way."

He Susu pressed her lips tightly before saying, "But Chen, she is right. If I had not married you and if Jie had not been our son then he really could have lived the life that people would be envious of." Her voice choked up a bit as she added, "Also, as a mother, I'm a failure. I didn't even get to hold my son or hear his first word." Tears streamed down her face and shoulders shook lightly as she sobbed silently.
