Chapter 200 Mom, You Should Never Doubt My Eyes



Katelyn who had just entered the office was surprised by the scene of Jack holding Celine while she cried. Although it had already been some time since she began crying, she was still in Jack's arms, whimpering.

Normally when she came to Celine's office, Katelyn wouldn't even knock on the door before getting in. But today, because she knew that Jack was here, she had decided to show a little etiquette.

But all the same, she really didn't understand what was going on in here. Since she had seen Jack here, she knew that this had something to do with her agreement with Anne.

But, as to why Celine was crying in Jack's arms, that was a mystery to her. 'Could it be that she feels sorry that she had been trying to date another man and forgot about Jack?' Katelyn began speculating about what was happening here.

In the end, she didn't know that Jack and Celine were the ones that were dating before and they were the ones that she was exactly trying to prevent from getting together.

"Can you tell me what is going on here?" Katelyn asked as she took a seat on one of the chairs that were present in the office. She looked at the two of them, waiting for an answer.

Seeing that her mother wasn't surprised by the fact that Jack was here and that he was holding her, but by the fact that she was crying, Celine got confused. But, she confirmed that Jack was indeed directed here by her mother.

"Mom, could it be that you knew about me before?" Although she had just recovered her memory, she didn't understand why she had lost them in the first place. Furthermore, she didn't know why she would only recover the memories only after she took the pill that Jack gave her.

At this point, she was wondering if Jack had his memories all along and was simply playing around with her. But, she didn't ask about that because she was still waiting for her mother to answer.

"Of course I knew. The two of you have been growing up together since you were young. Well, that was until when you were thirteen that you separated till this day." Katelyn replied.

"And, why were you crying?" Katelyn asked.

Celine on the other hand looked at her mother strangely. She couldn't understand why her mother was playing dumb. Of course she had recovered her memory and she knew for the fact that the two of them grew up together.

But, that wasn't what she was asking about. What she was asking about was definitely if she she knew that she had lost her memories of Jack till this very day. She had actually forgotten about something important that came from her childhood!

"Mom, I'm not asking about that. I'm asking if you knew that I had lost my memories of Jack and his mother!" Celine stated as she got out of Jack's embrace.

"Eh? You have already recovered your memories?" Katelyn was surprised. Although she had mentioned about the two of them growing up together, that was simply because she was trying to hint at her that she and Jack were supposed to be together.

Furthermore, she was sure that Jack already knew about Celine because of the way that he referred to her as aunt. But all the same, she didn't expect that Celine would recover her memories the moment that Jack arrived.

Back then, after Celine's memories of Jack and all those related to him were sealed, she and Anne had agreed that they would give the two of them a timeline till they reached twenty years old.

It wasn't that Katelyn was the one that had decided on the time, it was Anne. Although she didn't know why Anne had decided on that time, she decided to trust her anyway.

But, other than the fact that if Jack didn't come to look for Celine after the timeline got past, for her to do whatever she wanted, Anne said nothing about Celine's memories of Jack and whatsoever.

Now that she had heard that Celine had recovered, she was definitely surprised by that. She could simply link it to Jack. But all the same, she was happy that Celine was back to the state that she was supposed to be in.

"What? You weren't expecting that?" Not only Celine, even Jack was surprised that Katelyn didn't know that Celine would recover her memories when Jack got here.

"Of course I wasn't expecting that." Katelyn knew that things might get a little complicated. So, she went ahead and gave her explanation about what had happened.

She made sure to make things clear so that there would be no assumptions that would be made. And although she was sure that Jack already knew about it, she just explained in case there was something that he had missed.

"Is it that serious?" Celine asked after Katelyn finished explaining.

"It surely is. As long as I can remember, Anne wasn't someone that would lie about something serious. Back then, that's before your memories of each other were sealed, she said that there was something serious that was about to happen." Katelyn stated.

"I'm not sure about what it was that she was talking about. But, she had said that it was something big. And if the two of us were closer to her, we would get involved in something that would surely be risky."

"And, although I had tried convincing her that it wasn't necessary and that I would be together with her, she then told me that it was something that only she could handle. As for Jack, although he was the one that was closest to her, she said that nothing would happen to him."

"So, as I can see Jack here, I can only assume that what she was speaking about was true. But, there is something that I don't understand at all. But all the same, I think that whatever she was talking about was definitely something that caused her death." Katelyn finished.

At this moment, Jack could see that she was sad. And, her emotions weren't fake ones as Jack could tell if she was simply acting.

But, what was confusing him was definitely the matter concerning his mother's death. That was exactly something that he had known about. His mother was killed by Marion, and he had already killed her.

But, he was wondering if it was true that his mother was afraid that Marion would try attacking Katelyn and Celine. Although Jack thought that it was possible, he doubted that she would take the risk considering the risk that was involved in offending the Gravy family.

Alfonso family was definitely nothing in the eyes of the Gravy family. They would be destroyed the moment that they attempted something like that.

But, he still couldn't find an answer. It seemed that he would have to do a little more research about his mother's case.

Then, Katelyn looked at Celine and asked, "Do you now understand why I was prohibiting you from the relationship that you mentioned to me?"

Celine's mouth hang open when she heard that. But at the same time, she could only say that she was indeed a lucky girl.

On the other hand, Jack was definitely surprised that there was a relationship that Katelyn didn't approve of. He wondered who it was that had beat him to it and dated Celine first before he was stopped.

"Hehe," Celine chuckled. She then looked at her mother and asked, "Mother, do you even know who it was that I was dating that you decided to stop me from continuing?"

"It doesn't matter anyway." Although she was curious, Katelyn didn't think that it was necessary for her to know who it was that Celine was so adamant on dating.

"Mom, it matters. After all, I was dating Jack. In fact, although you had said that you wouldn't approve of our relationship, I still considered myself his girl. And, that's exactly the reason as to why I told him where I was." Celine said with a smile.

Ignoring the shocked expressions of the two, she continued. "I had wanted you to see him so that you could know who he was and that you not approving of our relationship wasn't the best choice."

"In the end, who knew that the two of us were fated? When he got here, you were actually the one that had sent him over to me. And, it turned out that the person that I'm dating is the one that I grew up with." Celine smiled at the end of it, enjoying the expressions that were on the faces of the two.

But, she didn't enjoy for long as just a few seconds later, the two of them recovered, to her disappointment.

Katelyn looked at Jack and asked, "When did the two of you meet?" This time, she wasn't curious about the time that they had met because she wanted to prevent them from being together. Instead, she was genuinely curious about something.

"This should be the second month since we first met. After the sealing of our memories, of course." Jack replied.

"Did you have your memories back then?" Katelyn asked. This was what she was most curious about. Even Celine looked at Jack, wanting to know about it.

Jack simply shook his head in response. Then, he said, "I really had no memory of her at all. It was just that I felt familiar with her but I couldn't explain why. As for the memories, I only recovered them yesterday after I dropped Celine back at home."

Katelyn laughed loudly and said, "I guess that the two of you are really meant to be together with each other. All the same, I won't say anything about your relationship anymore. You can move at your pace, but I hope that you don't go past the line before the right time."

Celine blushed at her mother's words. But all the same, she looked at Jack with a happy smile on her face. Now that her mother had approved the relationship between the two of them, she didn't think that there would be any other obstacle that would stand in their path of love, or so she thought.

"Mom, you should never doubt my eyes." Celine stated smugly.

Katelyn simply laughed at that. But at the same time, she was thinking of something that was troubling her mind. 'I wonder what will happen with that young man. I hope that he doesn't do anything to the two of them. Otherwise, I would be willing to give up everything for their sake.'
