"I had to endure the humiliations and sacrifice my own happiness to let you date the little princess of Star Island! What did I do all that for? Sean Ford, think about it with your conscience. What did I do that for? A t that time, did you have a choice? At that time, have you thought about how much pain I was in? However, for the sake of saving you and saving your Ford family from plummeting, I actually accepted you and that woman's relationship. However, you got that woman pregnant! It was you who got her pregnant!"
At that point, Rose was tired. She sighed and then her speech became slower as if all of her strength was used up. "Sean Ford! If I had not taken that step, perhaps your life would have been gone, let alone your Ford Group. I had taken that step and not only do I have to share my husband with another woman, but m y sons died in their prime! How much more miserable must my life get? What did I do wrong? Sean, have you thought about how pitiful I am?"
Sean was speechless. At that moment, he also did not know what he should say. No matter how he thought about it, everything that Rose had done was truly for his sake. She was his wife for so many years after all. He just felt very sorry for her.
The more Rose spoke, the calmer she became. "I am already almost seventy years old. I originally also wanted to live out the rest of my life with my husband in a safe and sound manner. However, my only adopted son, that woman's son, did not accept me. Since I am not accepted, then I can only let both sides suffer. Putting aside other things, I just wanted to avenge my late sons! I just could not watch the two brothers, Sebastian and Holden, take charge of the Ford Group together in harmony! Half of the reason the Ford Group is so steady today was because of my credit! Why should I hand the Ford Group to someone else? On what grounds?"
"Rose, I...I know you're feeling bitter and have suffered, " Sean said.
Rose cried even more miserably. However, her cries did not make Sebastian sympathize with her.
Sebastian sneered. "On what grounds? On the grounds that you have harmed an innocent woman! Everything you have done was selfless contributions to the Ford family, but it was built on an innocent woman! You're very miserable, but my mother is extremely innocent! No matter what happened to you in this life, you still have your man! But what about my mother? Who has my mother offended in her life to be used by you like that? The Summer family was broken and dead, she delivered her children out of wedlock, she was called a homewrecker for her whole life. After that, she was imprisoned and she did not even get to set half a foot into the Ford family before she died. Which of those were not because of you? Has she been in your way? Why did you have to put so much pain on her? Say it yourself!"
Rose was speechless. At that moment, she had nothing to say. She did give her whole life to the Ford family, but she also truly used Grace Summer. Grace was just a woman. It did not even matter if she died, let alone ruined. Rose was the one who had personally manipulated Grace's miserable life, and at that moment, Grace's son was making her pay for all that i n double. What more could she say?
"Just kill me, Sebastian," Rose said with a hoarse voice.
Sebastian sneered. "I won't kill my mother, I won’t make it easy for you."
