It would make sense to include Ren's mother in the arc following the media saying Ren has a lover. From what we know she love her son very very much and would no doubt go to Japan when the news of him having a lover hit.
Also I keep telling myself to read Skip beat in batches and I end up always coming back when the chapters get good. orz
I'm kinda glad we got a bunch of chapter translated at the same time. I think I would have been really unsatisfied with 292 and waiting a whole month. It had stuff we already know. I mean it was painfully OBVIOUS Sarah was Ren's mom.
I'm glad it wasn't dragged out even more. Now on to the good stuff.
