Despite this, she continued to forcibly control him in order to stop her son from further bothering Serenity.
Her son might be in a lot of pain now, but with the passing of time, he would walk out of the darkness and stop seeking pain.
Time was the best medicine that healed all emotional wounds.
“What on earth happened?”
Mr. Lowe was normally busy due to his work and so he did not know about his son liking Serenity.
Mrs. Lowe had thought she alone could control her son and make her son give up thoroughly, so she had not told her husband about this.
Mrs. Lowe sighed and said, “Your son has someone he likes now.”
Mr. Lowe said, uncomprehendingly, “He’s an adult now. Isn’t that normal? Other kids started having crushes on people in their teens but there has never been such news on his end. I was even starting to worry he wasn’t normal. Who does he like? Is the girl’s family background not good? You wouldn’t be objecting to it otherwise.”
What Mrs. Lowe just said indicated to Mr. Lowe that his wife was not happy with his son’s choice of a crush.
Mrs. Lowe once again sighed heavily. “You know the girl too. You’ve even known about her for more than a decade.”
“I know her and I’ve known about her for more than a decade? Shawn usually likes hanging out with Jasmine… That little rascal hasn’t fallen for his own cousin, has he? That scoundrel has wasted all his education! Close relatives can’t get married,” Mr. Lowe protested.
“Where has your mind gone to? Shawn doesn’t like Jasmine—the one he likes is her best friend, Serenity Hunt.”
Mr. Lowe was stunned.
Mrs. Lowe continued, “Discarding the fact that Serenity’s already married and has a husband, even if Serenity was still single, they’re not suited for each other. Just look at the status of us Lowes and look at Serenity’s family background. Even if you take into account that Serenity’s aunt is Mrs. Stone, they’re only aunt and niece. That doesn’t account for much.”
Mrs. Stone had her own daughter too.
