Chapter 69: Who is She Really?

Hugo was taken aback, not expecting Tina to suddenly bring up her mother. She had been back for so long but never mentioned her mother on her own initiative, and he, fearing it would sadden her, had also avoided the topic. Hugo fell silent for a moment, then said, "Your mother-she was a kind person, full of a sense of justice. She could put aside her personal interests for the greater good. In short, Tina, the person in this world who loved you the most was your mother, even more than I ever could."

He deliberately spoke lightly of Rebecca, not going into great detail.

Perhaps he did not want to stir up sad memories for Tina.

Tina simply nodded in response to his answer and did not press further.

Jared, however, started to ponder deeply. Hugo had been besotted with Rebecca back in the day, even willing to clash with Elizabeth for her sake. With such deep affection, Hugo's description of her boiled down to just kindness and a sense of justice, without any hint of his past admiration.

"Not bad, Rebecca-she was quite something!" Logan's expression darkened momentarily when he mentioned Rebecca, but it quickly returned to normal, except for the look of admiration for Rebecca on his face.

Hearing this, Jared turned to look at Logan, sensing he was touching upon something crucial.

He had forgotten that his grandfather knew Rebecca.

It was his grandfather and Rebecca who had arranged his engagement to Tina.

Tina was stunned for a moment by Logan's words.

She did not know how her mother was acquainted with Logan and had never heard her mother mention him.

She had assumed their engagement was the result of some transaction, but now it seemed the connection between Logan and her mother was not merely an acquaintance.

There was a deeper bond between them.
