A False Heiress's Guide to Love and Power
Chapter 223
Alessia never expected Jade’s first words to be this–her tears fell instantly, slipping down her cheeks before she could stop them.
She bit her lip, forcing her voice to sound as steady as possible.
“Yes, they’re very good to me. You don’t have to worry.”
She gave a wavering smile and brushed at her tears, but they kept coming, no matter how hard she tried to hold them back.
“Our Lessie deserves the world.” Jade’s eyes shone with pride at Alessia’s words.
“Ms. June, you mean so much to me. I love you, truly–you know that, right?” Alessia, who rarely expressed her feelings, suddenly needed Jade to know what was in her heart.
“I do know. I’ve always known. And I love you, and I love Cole–so, so much. But I’m sorry, sweetheart. I need to go be with your Mr. Whitley now. He’s been waiting for me for two years. He’s waiting, and I have to go to him…”
“But what about Cole?” Alessia’s voice was small and trembling.
“Cole still has you.”
“It’s not the same, Aunt June.” Alessia’s composure cracked, her voice tinged with panic.
Jade didn’t have the strength to argue. She simply looked at Alessia, her gaze gentle and full of love–there was no fear of death in her eyes, only the pain of leaving her two children behind, mixed with a kind of peaceful release.
