Spoiled my CEO husband after Rebirth

Chapter 49: Gwenda's Secret Aid

"No, you're not. Everything that you've done was to make the world hate me and my own father

despise me. Only then can you highlight the wonderful qualities that Gretchen has." Gwenda smiled

bitterly at her previous foolishness. "Speaking of which, well, you got what you wanted.

"My breakup with Martin gave you the opening you needed to have your daughter openly marry into the

Morel family. And now that I've left the Evans family, my father hates me even more. After all, he thinks

that I'm an arrogant and unreasonable b*tch who has all but destroyed the family reputation and can

never be the heir!"

Gwenda kept pushing forwards and gave Pauline no chance to speak. "What, did I hit the nail on the

head?"

Sneering, Gwenda snarled. "If that's the case, then you don't have to pretend to want me back home!

You don't even need to act like you're a loving mother to me anymore because you've never been my

mother!"

...

Having been exposed so brutally by Gwenda, Pauline's face was as white as a sheet, her hands

unconsciously clenching into fists.

"She actually noticed.

This stupid brat. I've always thought she was too dumb to notice that I was toying with her.

Why does it seem like as if she's had some sort of awakening..." Pauline thought in disbelief.

"Oh, and one more thing,"

Gwenda said as a sudden thought entered her mind, "You came here to get me to go home because

Gretchen isn't doing so well, right? Because of what happened to me?

Heh, you can tell her that this is only the beginning. There will be many bad days to come! The feud

between us... Is. Not. Finished!"

The way she emphasised the last three words were bone-chilling. Pauline's eyes twitched as they

locked together with Gwenda's, who had a sinister smile on her face that caused chills to run down

Pauline's spine.

She had changed.

She was no longer the Gwenda Pauline used to know for she had begun to escape her control.

...

At this moment, Pauline felt somewhat scared of this brat of whom she had raised for 20 years.

"Is there anything else that you'd like to say? If not, you can get lost!"

Gwenda said coldly as she got up from the sofa and returned to the dining table where her breakfast

was.

Frowning, she picked up the meal that she had barely touched and threw it all into the rubbish bin.

She had lost her appetite and no longer wanted to eat.

Behind her, Pauline took in several deep breaths as she recollected herself on the sofa. Gazing at her

stepdaughter, she said slowly, "Gwenda, I don't know why you would suddenly have such thoughts and

ideas. But I'd like to say that I've never faked my love for you. If you're taking out your anger on me

because of the matter between Gretchen and Martin, I don't blame you.

I just hope that you can think things through and not be deceived by the words of others. We're still a

family, and I will wait for you to come home."

With that, Pauline dared not stay any longer. She stood up and said, "I shall not disturb you any further.

When you've thought things through, just come home as soon as you can."

After that, she walked out of the apartment.

...

The door closed with a bang.

Standing by the dining table, Gwenda laughed derisively.

"Don't be deceived by others?

Does Pauline really think that my resolve was caused by incitement from others? NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

Ha, what a joke." She thought with bitter triumph.

On the other hand, Pauline felt uneasy ever since leaving Gwenda's residence.

After she got home, she went straight to her room.

Gretchen went to find her and entered her mother's room. "Mum, you're back."

Inside, Pauline was sitting on the sofa in a daze. When she saw her daughter, she returned to her

senses and nodded.

"You went to see Gwenda,"

Gretchen said as she came over to her mother and sat next to her.

Pauline nodded once more. "Yes."

"Mum, did something happen?"

Seeing that her mother was being a little strange, Gretchen asked with concern.

Pauline's eyes flickered with confusion as she said, "Gwenda has found out. She knows that I wasn't

being truly good to her and that I was only doing this to help you. So, she fell out with me when I was at

her apartment."

"What?"

Gretchen was shocked. "How did she know?"

Pauline shook her head and said, "I'm not sure, but I have the feeling that someone is helping her.

Otherwise, there's no way she would have figured out that something was up after our plan has gone

on so smoothly for years."

"Is it because of that man from before?"

Gretchen mumbled in puzzlement.
