Chapter 275
275 A mother’s ns for her daughter
“I watched Jeslyn’s show and saw how affectionate she was with my nephew, her son. It made me
realize that I never got such love and affection from you for the longest I can remember… She’s just an
inexperienced young mother, yet knows how to care for her child’s mental health. 1 Mom, Jeslyn just
reunited with Valen, but she’s able to create arge space for herself in his heart. But in your case,
none of your children feels the need to want to have you as their mother. Tell me Mom, why did you
give birth to us? Is it only to help you rise in ranks?! And to show off to the world that you were once the
richest woman?!!!…
“Paah!” Madam Caroline pped Piper’s cheeks really hard. Nothing Piper said pained her more than
reminding her that she was no longer the richest woman after Maverick took all of her money and gave
it to that cursed girl.
“How dare you question my parenting, you ungrateful bastard!! I raised you alone when your worthless
father abandoned you! I-”
“You can keep lying to yourself, Mom!! Push me away too, just like you pushed my brothers away!
You’ll die lonely!!!” Piper turned and ran out of the house after her outburst.
Madam Caroline froze for a long time. Never in her wildest imagination did she think that Piper would
ever insult her like this.
The narcissistic woman wasn’t going to take it lightly. Whether Piper likes it or not, she must fulfill her
part as a dutiful daughter. For all she went through at the hands of the Xu family, Piper will have to
compensate her by going out with Feng Long and helping her get those people’s wealth. 1
All the money that Maverick took from her, she’s reiming them by taking other people’s money and
thedy won’t stop until she gets back to being the richest woman in the world.
With that in mind, she fished for her phone in her handbag and made two calls.
“My daughter is leaving the house, send her to Feng Long’s house.” After that, she called Feng Long.
“Son, your fiance seems to be at it again. My men will send her to you… seal the bond between you
two so she doesn’t leave you for that riffraff again.”
She squinted her eyes and a vicious smile settled on her lips.
“Piper, I’m your mother and I have the right to choose where the direction of your life should be. I made
the mistake of allowing your brothers to slip out of my hands, but certainly not you!” 3
Piper got into her white car and her Chauffeur asked; “Where are you heading, Miss?”
“Take me to my brothers,” she wiped her tears.
Ok, Miss.” The chauffeur started the car and Piper started to think of all her mother said to her. How
could her mother be so callous? She doesn’t care about her children’s lives or their happiness.
Thinking back to all that she could remember from a young age, her mother had always been like this,
self–centered, greedy, and wicked! How could a mother have the heart to treat her children like this…
“Is she really my mother?”
Lost in her small world, Piper had no idea that her Chauffeur was heading in the wrong direction. Soon,
her eyes started to feel heavy, so she turned her face to the window, hoping the wind would help her
stay awake.
Meanwhile, Brian was riding histest blue car along the same road, thinking of the article the media
has published again, his lips curled into a smile.
Not long after, his phone rang. It was a call from his manager who immediately barked at him for not
caring about his reputation again. 1
“You fool, what are you doing?! Are you hell–bent on ruining your career?? Why didn’t you tell me that
you kissed Piper?!!”
Instead of getting angry, Brian burst outughing.
“Brother Xie, don’t be like that. If I don’t do that, how am I going to pick on her again? I was thinking
someone would release the gossip to the media, so since no one did, I decided to do it myself.”
A thunderous roar came from the other end, forcing Brian to shift the phone away from his ear.
“Are you aware of the consequences?! Your image is at stake!!!”
“What’s at stake? Isn’t it a movie scene?” Brian shamelessly yawned and continued: “Big brother, I’m
feeling sleepy while driving. Do you want me to get into an i-”
“Beep! Beep! Beep!!”
Brian chuckled and pressed the button on his earpod. “Piper, watch how I break you in this industry.”
The minute he finished saying that, he saw Piper’s car speeding over. “Speaking of the devil,” he
snorted and a disgusted look settled on his face.
Zooming past her car from her side, Brian saw Piper looking out the window. Her eyes looked soulless
with tears running down her cheeks.
He subconsciously frowned and in no time, he turned to face the road. Even though his car had a long
way, that vulnerable image couldn’t leave his mind.
gone
Because he couldn’t ce his fingers on what could have been the reason for the self–centered and
proud Piper to forget about her image in public, Brian’s mind grew restless.
“F*ck!” He mmed his hands on the steering before he made a U–turn and elerated to catch with
the car that had disappeared out of his sight.
up
The more he trailed the distant car, the more his brows furrowed. They had long left the city and were
in the woods now.
“Where the f*ck is she going?” He mumbled. Even though Brian knew he shouldn’t be concerned, he
couldn’t stop himself from following.
The ringtone of his phone startled him and when he answered the call through his earpod, he realized it
was from one of his assistants.
“Brother Brian, where are you? I’ve brought the suit to your ce but can’t find you anywhere?” The

voice said.
“Perfect timing. Track my phone and tell me where I am heading to.” Brian instructed.
“Huh? You don’t know where you are? Have you by any chance lost your way in the city again?!”
