CHAPTER 40: Her uncertainty

Pain makes you stronger, tears make you braver, and heartbreaks make you wiser, so thank the past for a better future.

Ru lan looked at her sister who was shocked by her reveal briefly before continuing what she was saying. "Lei, don't get me wrong, it's not that I don't love Jason anymore or I don't want to be in the relationship anymore. it's just that, I feel like we're rushing into it too much, truth be told, I don't know Jason and the fact that I've loved him for years or been looking for him for years isn't enough to just jump into a relationship with him you know!"

Ru Lei breathed a sigh of relief. she looked At Ru Lan as she observed the girl who just spouted a load of crap thinking she could deceive her. "yes ma'am, I understand what you've said. it's just that, if I didn't know you better I would think you were speaking from your heart just now."

"it's true Lei, I think me and your boss are going too fast, I mean who goes into a relationship with a guy just because he is so rich and way too outstanding? you know I'm not that cheap Lei. we the ladies of the Ru family aren't that cheap." Ru Lan said when she realized that Ru Lei understood what she was trying to do.

"Yes, Princess Brianna. we are not that cheap, plus who even dates a guy just because they are the richest and most outstanding guy around? I don't know! it wouldn't be you, would it?

you didn't date the superstar Sila 2 years ago just because you thought it would be good to make Reiza cry right? or that guy from last year just because you thought his lips were very red and very kissable did you? I mean you Ru Lan are the quintessence of good behavior. who wouldn't want to emulate you?"

By the time Ru Lei finished dissing her, Ru man's face had become as red as a tomato. she was trying to hide her face now. Her sister did know her too well. she snapped at h3r in embarrassment and said. "Mom's waiting downstairs, why are you still here talking about nonessential things. Are you a relationship expert? I'm going downstairs to meet mom" she didn't wait for Ru Lei to reply before she dashed out of the room.

Ru Lei chuckled. got up from the bed and went downstairs meet to the mother-daughter duo. she knew that Ru Lan's mind was already made. that girl is going to certainly run away after Uncle K's wedding. she would just have to Help her boss keep her sister this time because she knew deep in her heart that Jason was not a person Ru Lan would want to lose and running away this time might change things for the worse.

Ru Lan's uncertainty was because deep down she knew that if she stayed with Jason, she would have to be committed for the rest of her life and Ru Lan was never one to be tied down by unnecessary baggage. Her uncertainty started the moment she felt the Ruthless Ceo's seriousness towards her.

who could tell Ru Lan that meeting her again was never a coincidence but part of Jason's well thought out plan? she is yet to realize that she has been trapped in a bee's honey pot there is no going back now. she can only bet the sweetness of love that Jason is ready to shower her with.

*Back in Jason's house

"Mom! why are you here so early, is everything ok? Jason asked As he saw his mother who was supposed to be at home stride elegantly into his room. she was the only one that had the guts to do that and she had once told Jason that she would continue to do that unless he brings a wife home.

Jason's Mom was already over 50 years old, but when one looked at the both of them, you'd think she was his elder sister.

" Nothing is ok Li Jaesun, nothing is okay. I hear that the overbearing CEO finally found a lady worthy of his up there image, and I'm the last to find out, how can you do this to mommy Jaesun, how could you let everyone else fond out before me?" his mother asked. tears were already streaming down her face as she hit Jason on his chest.

He knew she was pretending, but his heart still ached to see her cry. the last time he saw her cry was when they lost his big brother. their mother had a flair for the dramatics but they had to indulge her anyway. in front of other ladies in their circle, she was called the 'iron lady' but once in front of her family, she was a little girl at heart. He hugged her and coaxed her.

"No one knows mom, you're the first in the family. we just started dating and I don't want to scare her by bringing her to meet the family. it's much too early and I don't want her to run away, it took me five years to finally arrange my emotions and come to her, I don't want to lose her".

" Aha! she jumped out of his embrace and exclaimed.

" Oh My God, this is such sensational news, you agreed. she must be an amazing girl. Your grandma is going to vomit blood and pass out when she hears this news. I've already recorded it. I have to go rattle that poor old woman before she starts enjoying her day. hahaha" I'll see you later son for the details," she said and ran out of Jason's room.

she was already at the stairs when it occurred to her that from Jason's house to the old house takes about 3 hours by car, so she ran back and told Jason to call someone to fly her there. she meant business.

After she left, Jason just shook his head and thought. 'they are going to get along fine' he took his phone and typed a message. 'thinking about you' he pressed send and plastered a smile on his face, he was wishing he could see her expression when she saw that message.
