Mommy

Chapter 51

Jenna glared back.

The director looked at Dante, and Jenna, and then back at Dante.

How could he not know their relationship? Now that things had come to this, he just wanted to find someone to vent his anger. He felt ill at ease because once Charlie wanted someone to blame, his career might be ruined.

He used to be an acting postgraduate; he worked hard, used his connections, and pooled money to climb up the showbiz ladder, all the way to where he was today.

It would be the end of him if his career just went up in flames because of the episode.

He had spent the first half of his life directing.

After his first work, he made some achievements as well as money. He paid his connections and a down payment on a house in Faycaster. Though his monthly mortgage payment was high enough, it wouldn’t be a big deal if the one he was filming could finally hit the big screen..

Therefore, if that film got suspended, it wouldn’t just mean a huge loss of income or a waste of effort. The producers and investors alone would drive him to a dead end first.

The director turned to Jenna, hesitating, so she spoke up. “Actually, Kamryn is my older sister. And a few years ago, she was driven out of the family by my father because of something

“Ah! So she’s your sister!”

“I can’t tell at all! Nothing on you is in common except your family name!”

“Jenna is the best! She’s a real lady and filming is just a hobby!”

The director got to the point. “Why was she driven out of your family?”

“Because…

Jenna sounded in a dilemma. “Sigh. I shouldn’t be saying this, really, but since everyone knows, I wouldn’t mind telling you guys… She used to be my husband’s fiancee, but before marriage, she was found pregnant with another man’s baby. So, my husband switched to me. It’s okay to make mistakes, but she wanted to keep the baby. You know, there was no way the Ramsey family could allow that. My dad said with that baby, she should never returned home. And there she went, really cutting all ties with us.”

As soon as she finished, the crew burst into an uproar.

Everyone looked at Jenna in disbelief. They hadn’t expected Kamryn to have such a despicable past.

She betrayed her future husband before she got married?

Not only that, but she was also going to give birth to the child?

How shameless!

“She isn’t doing well these years so I’ve been helping her out. Father has lost faith in her, but if she really returns, there’s no way he would turn her down. I had Dante bring her here today. I just wanted her to reflect on her mistakes and go back home.”

All the people present felt moved.

However, the director didn’t say anything.

He didn’t care! He couldn’t care less about their family ties. He only wanted to know if his movie could keep going!

Okay, judging from what Charlie’s assistant said, they wanted him to pay a price, no?

Who did he offend?

Perhaps he had been made a scapegoat?

As if seeing through his worries, Jenna decided to help him out. “Don’t worry! I’ll take good care of this matter. I’ll talk to Charlie and explain everything to him. This has nothing to do with you, and it won’t get you in any trouble. I take full responsibility!”

Only then did the director sigh with relief.

Half conscious, Kamryn felt a needle jab into the back of her hand. She shivered in pain and let out a soft groan. Then immediately, a warm embrace enveloped her.

“Good girl, it doesn’t hurt, huh?”

A man gently comforted her as if he were coaxing a child. He patted her on the back and combed her hair back with his slender fingers.

“Go to sleep. You’re tired.

Listening to the gentle voice, she actually fell asleep slowly.

When she woke up again, it was the time when the needle was pulled out.

She was jolted awake and sat up from the bed. The nurse was shocked by her big reaction and hurriedly explained. “I was just taking out the needle. Don’t worry.”

Seeing the empty infusion bag in the nurse’s hand. Kamryn finally realized that she was in the hospital.

She remembered. When she was going numb from soaking in the ice water, Charlie jumped into the pool and held her in his arms

At that time, she felt greatly relieved and drifted into a light sleep.

She could still feel things around her.

She felt Charlie carrying her into the car and heard him instructing the driver to turn up the heat on the way.

The weather was hot, but for her, he made sure the air conditioner reached its highest limit.

So she could keep warm.

She also slept comfortably all the way.

In the hospital, he coaxed her when she was put on a drip.

She was very emotional and afraid of injections, but when she was alone, she pretended to be strong enough not shed a single tear.

However, for the first time in her life, someone, a man, coaxed her over and over again, like she were a little kid.

Apart from her mother, not even her father had been able to dote on her like that

But Charlie, he…

Kamryn felt so caught up in her emotions that she was reduced to tears in front of the nurse.

The nurse was flustered. “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

“No…no…”

Kamryn wiped away her tears in embarrassment and smiled. “I’m much better now. Thank you.”

“There’s no need to thank me. If you want to thank someone, you should thank Mr. Franco! He’s been with

whole time, wiping you clean, changing your clothes, and coaxing you while I put you on a drip.”

Only then did Kamryn realize something. She looked down and found that her soaked clothes had been changed into Η brand–new pair of pajamas.

“I wanted to change you into a hospital gown, but Mr. Franco insisted on buying new pajamas ‘cause he doesn’t like the clothes here.”

Kamryn instantly blushed. She tugged at her collar and found that she wasn’t wearing any underwear and quickly covered her chest.

“Haha, don’t worry. There won’t be any random person going in here.

Kamryn looked around and asked, “Charlie… where did he go?”

“He went to get food for you. The doctor said that you should eat something warm to keep your blood circulating

well.

Kamryn didn’t know how to respond.

“You’re so lucky you can get him to buy food for you. Except for Eugene, I’ve never seen him care for anyone else so

much.”

Kamryn felt a little flattered.

All it took was a phone call to get him to her rescue. How could she not be touched?
