Chapter 198
But what happened was Chloe went out in the morning. She went for a beauty treatment, had afternoon tea, and attended a music concert.
Victor called her. She replied coldly, “Why are you telling me? I am not a doctor! Get her a doctor if she’s sick.”
Olivia was in a daze from the fever. She kept calling for cake in her dreams.
She kept calling out for the cake until the fever subsided. She looked at the snow falling outside.
Victor brought her a teddy bear cake. She smiled happily.
“Mom must’ve made this right?”
“Yup.”
She found out later that the cake was made by the chef. Her mother did not take care of her. She didn’t even ask about her.
Time passed. Olivia watched as the faces of her mother in the past and present overlapped.
Truthfully, her mother wore a cold expression and was harsh to her.
Olivia heard from her classmates that most parents liked children with good grades. So, she worked hard to improve her grades just to see her mother smile.
She was more hardworking than anyone else. She had always been one of the best students in her class since she was a kid.
She always thought that her mother would pay more attention to her if she worked harder.
If she dropped to second place, she would work hard without rest to get back to the top of the class.
She did not expect her mother to see her persistence as nothing to be proud of.
Neither did she expect her mother to think that she was stubborn and underhanded because of her hard work.
If she knew this was how her mother was going to be, would she still have hoped for her return for so many years?
“Mrs. Carlton, you only need to pursue your own happiness.
“As for me? You’ve never loved me. Why act like you feel guilty? It’s disgusting.”
“Liv, I’m still your mother. How could you talk to me like this? Your father must’ve failed to raise you properly.” “Keep my father out of your mouth. You’re the one person in this world who has no right to talk about him!
Chapter 198
“Mrs. Carlton, stop trying to morally blackmail me. What I do with the rest of my life has nothing to do with you!”
Olivia glared at her and said, “The biggest mistake I’ve made in my life was to come to you and ask for your help.”
