Chapter 270 Affectionate Embrace
Lucien Gray and the bodyguard take the woman in a room with an iron fence and lock the heavy iron
lock. Then they walk to the dining table with a sullen face.
The butler, who has been standing behind, comes over and bows deeply to Lucien Gray, “Master! It is
my fault. I didn’t lock the iron door well.”
Lucien Gray frowns his bushy eyebrows. Grandfather Gray says before he opens up, “Jason, you don’t
have to explain. I know the pain in your heart. Carolyn becomes crazy and your heart died with her. It
doesn’t matter that you secretly let her out at ordinary times. Today we have distinguished guest, and
the young master also comes, how could you be so muddle-headed?”
Carolyn, that’s the name of the woman. Nina Morrison speculates in the mind that according to
Grandfather Gray, the butler is supposed to have a crush on Carolyn and he often lets her out.
But who is this woman? Why is she shouting to see Sarah Gray?
Such a mess. Nina Morrison starts to question her IQ.
The butler keeps his bow and doesn’t speak. Grandfather Gray sighs, “I know you want her to see
Sarah. Never mind, you can go!”
Lucien Gray waves his hand and all servants leave.
There are only Lucien Gray, Nina Morrison and Grandfather Gray sitting at the large dining table.
Grandfather Gray nods to Lucien Gray.
Lucien Gray looks at Nina Morrison, telling calmly like he is telling someone else’s story, “Nina, that
woman is my mother.”
What? Nina Morrison’s eyes widen.
Lucien Gray puts on a wry smile, “when I was four years old, she met a street punk and fell in love with
him. She abandoned me and ran off with him. The punk abandoned her after spending all her money.
She became a whore in the street. My father saw her and took her home. After a few years of steady
life, she ran away from home again. The person who fetched her was the same punk. It was a
particularly cold winter that year, the servant of Gray Family found her half-frozen at the gate with a
baby girl in her arms. That night, my father threw sulfuric acid on her face and ruined her appearance.
He wants to keep her stuck in the Gray Family with him for the rest of her life.”
Oh my god! Nina Morrison covers her mouth in surprise. What a cruel story!
What kind of love and hate would make a man rather destroy his wife’s appearance to keep her with
him?
Carolyn should really love that punk. She would rather abandon the prosperity and wealth, she would
rather wander on the street to stay together with that punk.
Unfortunately, he is not the right person. A cavity of affection, unexpectedly becomes the posion.
Lucien Gray looks down at the beautiful lilies on the dining table, “After disfigured, my mother became
half crazy. Until one day, she stabbed my father with a knife. The wound was deep and almost touched
the heart. Then my father lives in America all the year round.”
Nina Morrison understands everything. No wonder his dad has so cold-blooded psychopathic
personality. Being so hated by the one you love, everyone would be pessimistic to the world.
She waits for Lucien Gray to continue, but he stops talking. His slender fingers cross together, they
seem so weak and helpless under the light.
Nina Morrison’s heart aches as she watches his lonely profile. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Five years ago, she heard Lucien Gray muttering in the middle of the night.
“Mommy, don't...Don't...Mommy, Lucien will behave myself, Lucien will listen to you, don't...”
She remembers the cold sweat on his forehead and the tone of his voice. So poor, so sad, so
desperate.
Nina Morrison walks over to Lucien Gray and puts her arms around him from behind tightly.
No words are needed. She understands him.
Lucien Gray says like being hypnotized, “Nina, she left in the pouring rain. I knelt in front of her and
begged her not to leave. I promise I’ll be good. I'll listen to her. Still, she left. She passed me, not even
looked back.”
Nina Morrison is almost unable to breathe, and tears well up. She hugs Lucien Gray harder and tries to
pass all her heat and energy to him.
Lucien Gray hugs her back. His voice begins to shake, “Nina, you know what? I really envy Sarah
sometimes.”
Nina Morrison suddenly understands why Carolyn shouts to see Sarah.
Sarah is Carolyn’s daughter with that punk. The only child she really loves.
No matter how cruel and selfish she is, she is still a mother. Even if she is half crazy, she remembers
the daughter that she loves.
Unfortunately, this motherly love has never been given to Lucien Gray!
Nina Morrison holds Lucien Gray as hard as she can.
He is bossy, he is cold-blooded, and he has so many flaws. But at this moment, Nina Morrison just
wants to love him like loving a child.
Seeing the grandson and the granddaughter-in-law hugging together, Grandfather Gray is also full of
tears, “Nina, Lucien is a good boy. We were going to send Sarah to an orphanage. But Lucien stops us.
He says half of Sarah’s blood is the same with him.”
“Grandpa, I’ll cherish him. I will love Lucien and give him the warmest home I can.” Nina Morrison
makes a solemn promise to Grandfather Gray.
Ignoring the old family, she stands on tiptoe and kisses Lucien Gray on the cheek, “Lucien, I love you! I
love you so much!”
As a response, she gets a silent and affectionate hug.
