Chapter 1845


    “Absolutely not!” Cindy protested vehemently. “Listen, let me exin. I really couldn’t find an


    opportunity. Daniel—”


    “Don’t use Daniel as an excuse!” Jodie lost herposure. “No matter how capable he is, can he stay


    by that despicable girl’s side 24/7? Can he manipte everything? It’s just that you don’t want to find


    an opportunity!”


    Jodie gave her a sidelong nce and taunted sarcastically, “Could it be that my biological mother, who


    raised someone else’s child, has developed feelings for that child?”


    “What are you saying?!” Cindy was distressed and angry.


    How had she treated Jodie all these years? Even if she found it nearly impossible to see her daughter,


    she still willingly overcame obstacles just to catch a glimpse of her.


    Even when faced with Jodie’s coldness, Cindy continued to meet her with a smiling face. If Jodie was


    unhappy, Cindy would be willing to give her everything she had.


    That was because she was her daughter, born from her own body—her flesh and blood! It wasn’t that


    she didn’t cherish her child or favored boys over girls. She just treated Maisie differently.


    Yet, now Jodie was saying… she had feelings for Maisie?


    Cindy couldn’t help feeling sad and disappointed.

    “Okay…” After a while, she took a deep breath and nodded. “Don’t worry, I’ll try to find another


    opportunity. But Jojo, you also need to understand that opportunities aren’t easy toe by. Maisie


    now has Daniel supporting her. She’s much more resilient and doesn’t even regard me as her mother!


    “Jojo, if you want to get rid of her, I’ll have to find another way—”


    “Who are you nning to get rid of?” Suddenly, a sharp voice intBooks Chapters Are Daily Updated

    errupted from behind.


    Jodie and Cindy froze, turning around to face Delh’s icy gaze.


    “Mom…” Jodie instinctively put on a pleasing smile, intending to step forward and link arms with


    Delh, but she was harshly pushed away.


    Cindy felt bad for Jodie but dared not speak, only helplessly watching her daughter being treated this


    way.


    “Mom, what’s wrong?” Jodie looked at Delh nervously. “I…”


    “I’m asking you a question.” Delh enunciated each word. “Who are you nning to get rid of? Answer


    me!”


    Jodie shivered in fear. “It’s… it’s Maisie…”


    “I knew I didn’t mishear.” Delh chuckled coldly. “You want to get rid of her? Did you ask me about it?”


    The air around them turned icy and silent. Cindy couldn’t even reach out to steady Jodie through the


    courtyard gate.


    “I warn you.” Delh gritted her teeth, ring at Jodie. “Don’t touch Maisie! I have a use for that girl!”


    “Mom—”


    “Shut up!” Delh barked. “Don’t ruin my ns with your foolishness!”


    Jodie dared not speak again, huddling her shoulders and standing quietly to the side.


    Delh spared her another nce, then left haughtily.


    Cindy gently held Jodie’s hand. She saw her daughter’s reddened eyes and witnessed how Delh


    treated her.


    Although Jodie had enjoyed luxury for these past 20-odd years, her days were surely not easy…
