    Chapter 196 All Sorts of Troubles Emerged


    When Tristan heard those words, his face lit up as if he had discovered something.


    "Look, old Mrs. Riley, even your grandson is saying the same thing!"


    Meanwhile, Curtis''s face was now dark as iron, and he wished he could strangle Logan


    How did he not know before that his nephew had such a muddled mind?


    Old Mrs. Riley''s expression stiffened slightly and she suddenly became passive.


    At the same time, Edith rushed up with Vi.


    Seeing ald Mrs. Riley, Edith picked up a handkerchief and covered her face, pretending to cry, "Old Mrs. Riley, you must save my Adeline! It''s Adeline


    who''s done wrong in this matter. A year ago, her brother apologized and made amends with them because of her. Who would have thought this


    stubborn girl would cause trouble for their family again?"


    As Edith spoke, she reached out to poke Adeline''s head.


    Adeline dodged Edith’s touch with a stern gaze.


    Edith became angry in an instant and said, “What''s with that look? That''s how you look at your mother? I''m here to help you!"


    Adeline sneered.


    She had initially thought about saying that she had severed ties with her and that her affairs had nothing to do with Edith. However, she held back.


    After all, in such a situation, revealing too much about her family’s dirty linen would only bring embarrassment upon herself.


    Meanwhile, Vi also spoke up, "That''s right, Adeline. Mom was so worried about you and couldn''t sleep all night because of you. It was Logan who


    overheard his mother''s phone conversation and knew that the Morris family was causing trouble for you, so he rushed over to help you. He didn’t


    want to tell me in the beginning, but I was so worried about you that I pestered him for a long time before he finally told me. As soon as I called Mom,


    she rushed over immediately, without even having time to do her makeup.”


    Old Mrs. Riley gave a sideways nce at Edith''s bright red lips and well-applied eyeliner. She couldn''t help but feel speechless.


    Old Mrs. Riley rubbed her temples wearily, and then she heard Edith kneel with a thud


    "Mr. Morris, it''s my eldest daughter''s fault. I beg you to spare her. I promise that she won''t interfere in your family''s affairs anymore. Please pity a


    mother like me. This daughter has been rebellious since she was a child, always contradicting me in everything and being distant from me. Now, she


    doesn''t even provide for the family and she doesn''t support me... But she''s still flesh and blood from my body! How can I not love her?"


    As Edith was talking, she became emotional and burst into tears.


    Adeline''s heart felt colder inch by inch


    How could a mother be so shameless?Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    In front of everyone, she was openly using her of being unfilial!


    Ding! A notification sound from WhatsApp interrupted the moment


    Adeline didn''t check her WhatsApp, but she instinctively nced at Curtis.


    Curtis nodded faintly at her.


    Adeline took out her phone and opened WhatsApp, where she saw that Curtis had sent her a message.


    As Adeline held her phone, her grip tightened slightly, and there were some tears in the corners of her eyes when she looked at Curtis.


    Yes, no matter how embarrassing the situation was, having him was enough.


    Old Mrs. Riley was no ordinary


    person. She had stood by the Riley


    family through all the ups and >


    downs: How could she not see


    thraagh the true colors of those


    peaple and their intentions? Content

    Edith, who imed to be her for her daughter''s good, was using every word to put Adeline on the "guilty" pir of shame in front of everyone.


    In the name of "helping her sister.” Vi''s words were all about conveying how close her rtionship was with Logan to Adeline.


    That made Adeline a real pity.


    Old Mrs. Riley wanted to hold her hand, offering somefort, but she couldn''t do it at the moment.


    If she was to grasp Adeline''s hand, it would be tantamount to indirectly conveying to everyone that she might be biased.


    Therefore, adopting the manner of an elder, old Mrs. Riley nced at the manager of the Prodiff Theater and said, "Prepare a private room for us


    upstairs.”


    The ProdiffT heater manager smiled


    in agreement, "Of course, please do


    handleyour matter with the younger


    generation first. We''ll start the y a

    Old Mrs. Riley responded with a warm smile, "You''re too kind. That''s too much.”


    “It''s no trouble at all. This performance is made for you, Madam. I''ll just inform the other guests briefly."


    Old Mrs. Riley rose from her seat and didn’t say anything further.


    After all, there were plenty of people in the city willing to curry favor with the Riley family.


    At the same time, she also wanted to show Tristan how powerful she was.


    Once they entered the private room and took their seats, old Mrs. Riley spoke up.


    “Tristan, you''re the victim here. Why


    don''t youstart by exining what

    Old Mrs. Riley deliberately emphasized the word “ipetent.”
