While the situation remained at a standstill, the middle-aged lady’s phone suddenly rang and she quickly answered it.

After she finished talking on the phone, the woman suddenly walked away and stopped pursuing the matter with Ning Ran and Cheng Xiangyun.

“She just left like that? She’s not demanding compensation anymore?” The woman’s abrupt departure stunned Cheng Xiangyun.

“Can’t you tell? Her objective wasn’t to get compensation in the first place. She was just in a bad mood and wanted to find someone to vent her frustration on. You were just unlucky to have happened to cross her path at the wrong time. Let’s leave now. We’ll be trapped here for God knows how long if she turned back.”

Ning Ran starting pulling Cheng Xiangyun towards the car park urgently.

A black jeep was parked at the ‘D’ zone of the airport parking lot.

The middle-aged lady opened the back door of the car and saw Nan Chen, who was seated there.

“Chen… “

Nan Chen looked at Bai Hua. He wanted to greet her but found it difficult to utter the word ‘mom’.

He was not yet prepared to face his mom.

All the old memories came surging back.

Nan Chen’s nanny was the one who had told him about the events of the past.

After Bai Hua gave birth to Nan Chen, she refused to breastfeed him as she did not want to risk her breasts sagging.

After he made it to a full month in age, his mom had freed herself and started to become more involved in networking activities within the social circles of the upper class. She attended all sorts of cocktail parties, auctions and fashion shows.

Bai Hua had never been interested in having kids in the first place. She was merely fulfilling her obligations towards the Nan family by giving birth to the Nan brothers. The woman wasn’t fond of kids because she did not want to be tied down and forced to become a housewife.

In fact, she had already achieved her objective. Even though she was already over 50, Bai Hua still looked like she was 30. Age had not left its mark on her.

As compared to other women her age, she was much more youthful-looking. Her figure was still well-maintained, and there were hardly any wrinkles on her face.

Even though she was Nan Chen’s mom, their relationship was not any closer than that between two strangers.
