Chapter 944: Chapter 938: On the Brink of Danger (Part 1)

Tiana Thorne always felt that her fifth brother belonged to the very smart category of people. Of course, she would ask him about this first.

A brother is there to help share the burden~

Sebastian Ford leaned back on the sofa, crossing his legs: "Simple."

"How so?"

Sebastian Ford raised an eyebrow slightly: "Take our fourth brother on the show together."

May Sloane: "...!!!"

What the hell!

Genius!

If Master Sean and Brother Tiana went on the show together, wouldn’t Joel Jones and Sue Rooney be instantly done for?

Tiana Thorne smiled with a hint of cunning flashing in her fox-like eyes.

She had thought the same thing before. Unexpectedly, her fifth brother had a hundred percent tacit understanding with her on this matter.

Sebastian Ford saw her expression and knew she was satisfied with this answer.

Getting up: "I’m going back to my room now."

"Take care, Fifth Brother. Good night."

Sebastian Ford smiled, handsome and charming: "Good night, little sister."

After Sebastian Ford left, only three women were left in the living room.

Rouge Jarvis asked, "Tiana, you just recovered, and you’re busy with everything. Aren’t you worried about your health?"

"No, Mom, don’t worry. I know how to take care of myself."

As she said this, she affectionately held her mother’s hand, leaned on her shoulder, and acted coquettishly: "Mom, it’s been a long time. I missed you."

Hearing her say this, her heart fluttered gently, followed by endless warmth. She chuckled softly: "Silly girl."

Tiana Thorne smiled charmingly: "You gave birth to me, after all."

"Yes, yes, yes."

After saying this, Rouge Jarvis’s face gradually became solemn, and she said in a low voice: "By the way, Tiana, find some time to go back to the Thorne family with me."

Tiana Thorne looked at her: "Going back?"

Rouge Jarvis smiled gently, her expression was full of tenderness, she held her hand instead and said softly: "Tiana, I should thank your adoptive father in person."

She felt a bit moved. Actually, from a mother’s perspective, facing her father at the Thorne family was not easy.

After all, Whitney Lynch taking her away was a fact, and the fact that her mother missed twenty years with her was also a fact.

But her love for Tiana’s father ran deep in her bones.

Rouge Jarvis looked at the emotions in her eyes and guessed most of it. She brushed her hair off her forehead and said softly: "When I first found out the truth, I was indeed angry, but more so, I was jealous."

"Mom..."

Rouge Jarvis patted her hand and said softly: "Whether a father is qualified or not depends on whether his child loves him deeply. It’s obvious that Sean Thorne treats you very well. How could I be jealous of a father who treats you so well?"

Tiana Thorne felt very touched: "Thank you, Mom."

Rouge Jarvis continued: "On the contrary, I should thank him. I mentioned it before, but never actually did it. Last time we met in a rush, we should at least have a meal together and talk, to show him respect."

Tiana Thorne nodded: "Alright, after we finish filming the remaining scenes of ’Shining’, we’ll visit him again."

"Go to sleep, you have work tomorrow."

Tiana Thorne nodded, but she thought of her third aunt and uncle.

"Mom, how is Uncle’s health?"

At this point, Rouge Jarvis frowned slightly and sighed softly: "Cynthia Morgan and Miranda Dalton died of poisoning on the spot, we didn’t get a chance to save them. Although your Uncle was resuscitated, he’s still not out of the danger zone. No one knows what fate awaits him."

Hearing this, Tiana Thorne felt a bit worried: "Has Aunt been to the hospital to see him?"

"No."

Then, Rouge Jarvis talked about her sister’s current situation.

Even though this incident happened a month ago, Pearl Jarvis still couldn’t quickly forget her uncle’s deception, let alone come to terms with the truth of her daughter’s death.

She locked herself at home every day, drew the curtains, and fell into a deep abyss, unable to extricate herself, gradually sinking into depression and pain.

Hearing this, Tiana Thorne’s mood gradually became heavy.

She probably understood why her uncle chose to deceive her. Her aunt’s illness was more serious than imagined.

"Mom, is Aunt going to do something foolish?"

Rouge Jarvis shook her head: "I don’t know. Although your aunt seems heartless now, I know that she’s actually deeply sentimental. Love is almost two-thirds of her life, so even if she does something foolish, she’d wait until Jonas Jarvis is safe. In the end, there’s hate, there’s pain, and there’s reluctance to let go, too."

Tiana Thorne sensed that her mother was feeling very low when talking about her aunt.

After thinking for a while, she said: "Mom, let me go see her."

"I’m afraid she won’t want to see you."

Tiana Thorne gently shook her head: "Not necessarily. Aunt would feel guilty towards you and me, so naturally, she would try to make it up to me. She definitely wants to see me."

Hearing this, Rouge Jarvis felt touched: "But if you see your aunt, what would you say to her? Aren’t you even a bit resentful of Jonas?"

"When I first learned the truth, I was resentful, but in reality, Mom, you also know well that Uncle was just a victim too. Now, the truth has come out, and he never did anything bad with his own hands. Considering how much he cared for Aunt, I’ve come to terms with it."

Listening to her say this, Rouge Jarvis felt deeply moved, her lips quivered: "Tiana..."

"Mom, you’ve actually forgiven him too, right?"

Rouge Jarvis nodded gently: "I’ve watched him and Pearl go through so many setbacks, and then stay together. Instead of saying I forgive him, it’s more that I can’t bear to see Pearl upset. In this world, except for your uncle, there’s really no one who would love Pearl as much."

Hearing this, May Sloane unintentionally recalled when she went to Jonas Jarvis’s house and saw how carefully he took care of and cherished Pearl Jarvis.

Tiana Thorne also nodded, smiling with relief: "Mom, I won’t go to the set until tomorrow afternoon, so I’ll go see Aunt in the morning."

Rouge Jarvis nodded, full of affection, reached out, and gently touched her little head: "Alright."

Tiana Thorne smiled softly, rubbed her palm: "Then I’ll go to sleep first."

"Okay."

Tiana Thorne gave her a gentle hug: "Good night, Mom."

"Good night."

She then led May Sloane upstairs.

May Sloane escorted her to the bedroom door, then asked: "Do you want me to go with you tomorrow, or should I go to the set first?"

Tiana Thorne said: "Go to the set first. I’ll have the family driver take me."

At this time, Aunt probably didn’t want to see anyone else.

"Okay."

They each returned to their rooms.

...

At night, around three o’clock in the morning, Tiana Thorne was woken up by knocking on the door.

She opened the door and saw her mother with red eyes: "Mom, what’s wrong?"

"The hospital issued a critical illness notice for Jonas Jarvis, asking all family members to be present for his final journey. I can’t reach your aunt."
