Chapter 300
So, Myra had been waiting for Felicia to lower her head and come back to apologize.
Even when she took Kayla back, aside from feeling heartache for Kayla, part of the reason was to annoy Felicia!
She wanted Felicia to know that even if she were unwilling to apologize and reluctant to recognize her as her mother, there would always be someone who would!
She also wanted Felicia to know that she didn’t have just one daughter!
But three months had passed, and Felicia was not as miserable as Myra had imagined. Not only did she dress better than before, but she even had the leisure to go hiking!
This made Myra feel a deep sense of defeat!
It was as though Felicia didn’t care at all about losing the title of the heir of the Fuller family!
Myra’s emotions were complicated. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Kayla whisper, Why is Felicia hanging out with someone like Carmen? People at school say that Carmen does… that kind of work…”
Myra’s expression immediately darkened when she heard this.
This was simply crossing her bottom line!
“You’re hanging around with such disreputable people after being away from home for so long?”
Myra glared at Felicia, her face filled with disappointment. “You’re simply embarrassing me!”
Felicia almost laughed.
“Mrs. Fuller, from what position are you lecturing me? Have you forgotten the slap and the words you said that day?”
But Myra wore a hurt expression, sighing. “But I’m your mother. It was just a slap. Must you hold a grudge forever?”
Felicia’s smile slowly faded.
To this day, Myra had not realized her faults.
The slap might seem small, but what was its meaning?
It was prejudice, misplaced anger, and a lack of love.
“I’m not your pet or someone you can casually beat and scold without me holding a grudge. I’m a person. I have feelings, and I can feel pain and injustice.”
Chapter 300
Felicia looked at Myra and spoke each word clearly. “Why shouldn’t I hold a grudge? Why shouldn’t I resist? Why can’t I hate you?
“Why is it that Kayla can kill someone and still be forgiven? Why can’t I expose her crimes and be forgiven?”
Each “why” struck at Myra’s heart.
“Mrs. Fuller, you’ve never been a worthy mother to me.”
The wind blew, and the wooden plaques on the ancient tree clinked together, making a crisp
sound.
Myra staggered back a step.
Felicia’s words, spoken calmly and plainly, were like a thunderclap in her ears. It felt as if a gaping hole had opened in her chest, and a cold wind rushed in.
She wanted to say something but couldn’t.
Could it be that she was such a terrible mother in the eyes of her biological daughter?
She was deeply shaken, and tears welled up in her eyes. “But we’re mother and daughter… You were the flesh from my body, born after ten months of pregnancy. How can you say such things? I searched for you day and night, waiting for you, yet you say I’m not a worthy mother….
“How can you say such heart–wrenching words?” She pointed at Felicia, her hand trembling.
She could only see the coldness in Felicia’s eyes, but she couldn’t see the hurt and sorrow
behind that coldness.
She knew that Felicia hated and resented her, but she didn’t understand why.
