Chapter 355 When Talking About His Mom

There was only Bright and May at the ward after Rose left. However, May kept silent, which made the ward so quiet.

"Mrs. Tanner, what do you want to say? There is no one else here." Bright said, breaking the silence in the room.

He stood on his side and was covered by sunshine. The golden light made him look taller, slimmer and also nobler.

As a descendant of the Lee family, no matter by his own excellence or his family background, he was qualified to be the leader. Moreover, his handsome appearance could attract many debutantes.

Looking at Bright in front of her, May asked, "Mr.… Can I just call you Bright?"

"Whatever you want. I am okay with it." Smiling, he was patient enough.

"Bright, who else do you have in your family?" Her abrupt question shocked Bright, but he still answered politely.

"My grandma, father, elder brother, younger brother, Rose, Doris and me."

As for others, he didn't recognize them as family, at least not his family.

"What about your mom?" May continued to ask, with her fingers catching the quilt tightly.

The subtle movement was noticed by Bright, but he sat tight and said, "My mom passed away years ago when I was a baby."

"Passed away?" She smiled, which was ambiguous and mocking. "Do you still remember your mom? What's her name? What did she look like?"

May became wild and looked at Bright graciously.

His face remained expressionless, "I was too little at that time, so I knew nothing. Even if I knew, it didn't matter at all. She has been gone and she will never return."

Listening to him quietly, May was struck and her eyes turned red, which was caught by Bright.

"Do you know my mom so you want to talk to me alone?" Bright looked at her abnormality with his gloomy eyes.

"No…I don't…" May looked away, bowed her head and denied.

"Now that you don't know her, why did you ask these questions?" His intuition told him that May was lying.

According to her performance and questions, she must know his mom. Some emotions and reactions could not be faked because they were instinctive.

"I am just curious." May pulled back her tears and took a deep breath inwardly, "In my heart, Rose is my daughter. I am just helping her understand the situation. Oh! You just got a certificate? When will you hold a wedding ceremony? You must invite me!"

"Our parents have met each other and the ceremony is on the agenda." Though he was confused, he didn't continue to ask.

"Great! I can still wait until that day." When she raised her head, she looked so happy, "Bright, Rose is a poor kid. Sky and our family both let her down. You have to treat her well. My only wish is that you can live a happy life."

"Treating her well is always my goal and living a happy life is the destination of our life. I believe we can make it." This was what he desired, "In the past, I wasn't there protecting her. Now I am along with her,

so please don't worry."

"Bright, could you please stop calling me Mrs. Tanner? Just call me auntie May as Rose does." May said.

After a second, he said, "Aunt May."

"Well." Hearing that, May was satisfied, "That is nice."

He looked at her sincere smile and her eyes were brilliant.

"Actually… I hope you can help me persuade Sky." May quickly wiped away her tears, "You are both men, so it will be easier to communicate."

"Aunt May, I think I can do anything except this." He refused without hesitation, "First, I am not qualified. Second, I am afraid that he doesn't want to see me anymore."

"You know, I am supposed to be the opposite of him as a rival in love. So how can I persuade him?"

"Rose has made her choice, so there won't be any opportunity for Sky. I know that clearly and I won't let him to damage your family and he can't do so." There was assurance in her tone.

"Aunt May, I believe in myself and Rose. Nobody can damage our life." He was so arrogant that he didn't need others' sympathy or prevention.

"I know." May nodded her head, "I believe you can convince him and you can be friends actually. As a friend or an elder brother, you will be supported to do so."

"No, no, no, I don't deserve." He thought May was too brave to say so. He could never get along with Sky as what she said. He thought being a rival in love was quite cool.

"If he is trapped in something, it is useless to persuade him. The only way is to wait for him to come round. Why not just keep watching? The matter may be settled of its own accord." He suggested.

"In addition, such a wicked woman as Sophie is will pay for it. You don't need to be worried. Time will tell."

"It makes me scared and nervous to think of her pestering my son."

"Don't be afraid. If Sophie loves him, she won't hurt him." Bright continued to say, "He will be happy and lucky enough to have such a good mom. And the lucky man can turn adversity into fortune."

His words made her silent and her eyes gleamed uneasily.

He had lost his mom since he was a child. She had never experienced love and protection from mother. At this moment, he envied Sky a little. Though the feeling was fleeting, he had to admit that it was quite annoying.

"Sorry." May apologized.

"Don't say so. I have never got or lost a mother, and I don't need her anymore." He had got used to the life without his mom and he still lived a happy life.
