When Love Breaks by Jack

Chapter 684

“Yeah, and he never comments on the rumors about him and my mom, but he’s clarified every other scandal. Being single and childless at his age, it’s either he’s got issues, or he’s waiting for someone to open up to.” Gregory pinched my cheek, “You know, I didn’t realize you were such an expert.”

All this gossip came from Christine.

Back then, we had no idea my mom was actually my biological mom.

Christine was all about celebrity crushes and gossip, always filling me in.

When we talked about my mom and Mr. Shaw, we never imagined they’d actually become a part of our lives.

“I think it’s worth a shot.”

Gregory hummed in agreement, “Alright, you go plan with Christine. I’m sitting this one out. If you hit a real snag, then tell me.”

I hugged him, “Thanks, Gregory.”

I knew he just wanted me to not box myself in.

Gregory wrapped his arms around me as we lay down, a smirk on his lips, “Show me some real gratitude.”

…

The next day, I arranged to meet Christine.

Of course, I didn’t roll out of bed until noon.

After telling my mom I wouldn’t be home for lunch, I rushed out the door.
