Chapter 217
The woman was none other than Jane’s biological mother, Sandra. “Jane, are you alright? I think your neck is bleeding! Does it hurt? I’ll take you to the hospital right away!”
Sandra picked Jane up and looked her over anxiously, tears streaming down her cheeks. She had been reading a dossier when she saw the live broadcast on TV, and was shocked when she realized that her precious daughter had been kidnapped. She immediately dropped whatever she was doing and drove as fast as she could to get to the mall.
Fortunately, her daughter had only suffered some minor external injuries, thanks to Renee’s selfless act.
Initially, Sandra couldn’t even be bothered to look Renee in the eye, but now, she felt nothing but gratitude towards her. “Thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, I can’t imagine what would’ve happened. You saved Jane’s life, and that makes you my savior too. I owe you my
life!”
Renee waved her off awkwardly. “It’s nothing, I would’ve done the same for anyone. Thank you for the compliment, though!”
Sandra chuckled. “Don’t think too much of it. I still don’t like you, but if you want anything in return, I won’t say no.”
“Fine Renee couldn’t help but sigh. Sandra was really a tough nut to crack!
However, Jane suddenly pushed Sandra away and ran behind Renee. “Who are you? I don’t know you! My parents told me not to let strangers touch me. You’re a bad person… I’ll ask the police to arrest you!”
“Jane, you.” Sandra’s face crumpled. It was hurtful that her own daughter thought she was a bad person and wanted the police to arrest
her.
Renee held Jane’s hand and said gently, “Jane, this woman isn’t a bad person. Look, she’s so worried about you that she’s almost in tears.
She clearly loves you!”
Only then did Jane relax. She curiously studied the tall, imposing woman before her. “Who is she? I don’t recognize her, but she feels familiar. I think I’ve seen her in my dreams…”
“Jane, she’s actually your…” Renee wanted to tell Jane the truth.
Jane knew that Professor Wood and his wife weren’t her biological parents, and she’d always wanted to know who her real parents were. In fact, her wish for her sixth birthday was to meet her biological parents.
If Renee told Jane that Sandra was her biological mother, she’d at least have half of her birthday wish granted.
However, Sandra cut Renee off. She looked coldly at Jane and said softly. “You’re right for hating me. I’m not a good person, so you’d better stay away from me. Otherwise, I can’t promise I won’t hurt you.”
She then turned to face Renee. “Take her to the hospital, and don’t tell anyone what happened here. I won’t forget what you did today. I
always return the favor!”
With a final glance at Jane, Sandra strode away coolly.
Renee watched her leave. The woman probably had many secrets she didn’t want other people to find out…
Jane tugged at Renee’s hand. “Renee, you haven’t told me who that woman was. I want to be her friend. Why did she suddenly leave?”
“Umm…” In the end, Renee didn’t tell Jane that Sandra was her biological mother. “That woman is very capable and selfless. Jane, don’t
forget – whatever happens in the future, you cannot blame her. You have to forgive her, okay?”
Jane wasn’t sure what Renee meant, but she nodded obediently. “Alright, I understand.”
