The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Chapter 5289



In both ancient and modern times, many members of the royal family and heirs to wealthy families had long gotten used to betraying and turning their backs on one another because of their own interests.

Jaime was still kneeling on the ground, and tears were streaming down his face as he said in an incomparably firm voice, "I disregarded my mother and sister's lives and only cared about my own future. That was utterly inhumane and unrighteous, and I was being too disloyal and unfilial!"

Helen said seriously, "I understand what you're saying, but you couldn't help it either. I don't blame you."

Jaime continued in a loud voice, "If I was wrong, I was wrong! Saying that I couldn't have helped it is nothing more than an excuse! I could have chosen to stand with my mother and sister and seek justice for you, but instead, I made the wrong choice to disregard your lives and only care about my own self-interest!"

Helen was silent for a moment. She then sighed softly and said earnestly, "Okay, you were wrong, but I'm already very relieved that you've realized that what you did was wrong now. Being able to distinguish right from wrong now means that you're also worthy of your middle name, Adel."

After saying that, Helen added, "Jaime, now that you're finally back, your time here is limited, so you can't keep kneeling here the whole time. I've already filled the water in the bathtub for you, so you should take a bath first before accompanying me and your sister for a family meal together. The three of us should have a good chat."

Sophie, who was aside, also came forward and persuaded, "That's right, Brother, it's not easy for you to come back this time, so you should spend more time with Mom instead of kneeling here."

Jaime wiped his tears away, stood up, and followed behind his mother to enter the mansion that Charlie used to live in when he was young.

Helen led him to the bathroom directly, where the bathtub was already filled with water and the toiletries and clean clothes were placed aside neatly.noveldrama

Helen said to him, "Jaime, I prepared new clothes for you as well as toiletries and a razor, but there's nothing for you to cut your hair. I think your hair is already quite long, so why don't you go out to a barber shop to get a haircut later?"

Jaime shook his head and said, "I want to grow my hair for three years, but it has only been half a year now."

"Grow your hair for three years?" Helen said in surprise, "Boys should not keep their hair too long, not to mention, it must be difficult for you to manage such long hair with the difficult conditions of your journey."

Jaime said seriously, "Mom, I met a couple on the road last month. They were also like me and wanted to go on a pilgrimage to Jordan Temple, but we only traveled together for a short time because they were faster than me. I couldn't keep up with their speed for over two days. The reason why the couple went on a pilgrimage was to pray for their son who had died of leukemia so that he would not suffer from any diseases or hardships in his next life when he reincarnates. I felt very uncomfortable and distressed when I heard them talk about how much their son had suffered before he passed away, so I want to grow my hair and then shave it off after three years so that I can donate my hair to make wigs for children who have lost their hair because of chemotherapy treatment. I can only do that much for them..."

Helen's eyes were instantly filled with tears. She really did not expect that there would be such a big change in her son. She had watched her son grow up for more than twenty years and had even envisioned that her son might never be able to achieve anything in his life. She also envisioned that her son might be able to achieve a career in the business world, but she never thought that her son would say such a thing in his life.

Sophie, who was standing at the door, was also in tears at this time,

Therefore, she said, "Brother, why don't I donate some money to set up a charity fund in your name to help those children with leukemia?"

Jaime turned to look at Sophie and then said with a smile, "Sophie, it's okay for you to do good deeds, but do not do it in my name. I am not worthy."

Having said that, Jaime sighed again and said, "After I arrive at Jordan Temple and complete my pilgrimage, I will do my best to personally do something for them."

Sophie asked, "Brother, it will take you a year before you arrive at Jordan Temple, right?"

Jaime smiled and said, “If I can be a little faster than the day before every day, I might be able to get there in eight months!"
