All Chapters of Save the Tears for Someone Who Cares: Chapter 291 - Chapter 300

Just around the corner, Theodore spotted Noah crouched on the floor, crying. His heart sank. He hurried over and crouched beside Noah."What's going on, Noah?"It wasn't just now. Ever since filming began, Theodore could barely remember the last time he saw Noah smile.Noah looked shattered. He kept his head down, his voice barely audible. "I'm useless. I always make my mom mad."Theodore tilted his head. "Your mom's too strict. You don't always have to do what grown-ups say, you know."For Noah, who'd spent his whole life trying to be good, that sounded downright rebellious. He looked up, tear-streaked and wide-eyed. "What did you just say?""Grown-ups aren't always right. Just because we're kids doesn't mean we can't think for ourselves," Theodore said, his voice earnest.Noah was smart enough to understand, even if it didn't sit right with him. His mouth fell open slightly. "So, we don't always have to listen to them?"Theodore nodded. "Not if they're wrong. Then it's okay t

"Can I help you?" Jacklyn asked, her brows furrowed in confusion.Connie gave her an apologetic smile. "Ms. Stinson, I'm so sorry. I said some awful things before when I didn't understand what was going on. I came here today to apologize."She dipped her head at once. "I truly am sorry."Jacklyn hadn't taken Connie's words to heart. She'd heard far worse over the years. Thus, she gave a faint smile and shrugged it off. "It's fine."Connie let out a quiet breath, her smile tinged with regret. "Ms. Stinson, I know prestigious families like Mr. Robertson's don't work the same way as everyone else's."Even being pregnant with his child doesn't mean they'll welcome you in. But Mr. Robertson cares deeply about you and Theo. I believe you'll end up marrying him."Jacklyn froze, unsure of what to say. Her lips parted, but it took a moment before she finally breathed out a quiet, helpless "Thanks".Before long, the production team called a temporary break, pushing the schedule back.Jac

As soon as Kacey left, Penelope made a beeline for Eugene."Gene, the conditions on that show are brutal. And you know Noah has never had to lift a finger. There's no way he can handle farm work."She walked up behind him and gave his shoulders a quick squeeze. "I was thinking I could use some money to pick up gifts for the other parents. That way, they'll look after Noah while we shoot."Eugene brushed her hand off, his voice icy. "You didn't have to come in person. A phone call would've been more than enough."A phone call?Penelope snorted in silence. Did Eugene seriously think she wouldn't hear what was going on at Lloyd Group just because she was filming a show?The new general manager at Lloyd Jewelry—some stunning woman who'd only been there a few days—had already set the whole place buzzing. People were calling her breathtaking.With a woman like that hanging around Eugene, how was Penelope supposed to feel at ease?She gave him a sweet smile. "I just missed you. Oh, Ge

Penelope wouldn't back down. The air in the room turned razor-sharp with tension. She and Jacklyn stood frozen in a silent standoff, neither willing to blink first.Lucas, still scrambling to keep the show from unraveling, stepped between them. "Ms. Penelope, I'm sure it was just an accident. Right now, we need to focus on letting Noah rest and—""Stop trying to smooth things over," Penelope snapped, her voice low and tight. Her glare was sharp enough to draw blood. "Noah's health is on the line, and you think you can brush it off with some half-assed excuse?"Her eyes narrowed, a dangerous glint flashing behind them. "You're defending her this hard. What? Did she pay you off or something?"The moment the words left her mouth, Lucas froze. He knew exactly who was standing behind Penelope, and going up against them wasn't an option. Still, this situation was spiraling.He cast a quick, uneasy glance at Jacklyn, then lowered his eyes and said nothing.Jacklyn lifted her gaze to mee

The Internet was buzzing. Most people were convinced that there was no way a five-year-old like Theodore could be that malicious. It had to be his mother, Jacklyn, pulling the strings behind the scenes.That night, something stirred at House No. 6. Somehow, Penelope and Noah's fans had tracked down the filming location and made their way to Theodore and Jacklyn's house.The three protesters shot a furious glare at the pair peeking out the door, grabbed stones from the ground, and hurled them at the doorway.The stones hit the wooden door with dull thuds as Jacklyn quickly pulled Theodore behind her."Who are you? What do you want?" she demanded."You've got some nerve asking that, you heartless witch! You're the one who taught Theo to poison Noah!""Yeah, we're here to make sure Noah gets justice!""Why don't you two just quit already? You're an embarrassment to the whole show!"Their voices cut like knives, each word laced with venom. Their hatred for Jacklyn grew with every b
