ine felt a wave of sadness wash over her upon hearing the news!
Although she had only been away for two days, it seemed as if the entire family had shifted their attitudes toward her.
Her husband was avoiding her and had even snapped at her. Meanwhile, her son-inw, who used to be so amodating, had changed as well. He had the audacity to express his anger, suggesting that she should move back to her own ce.
Even her beloved daughter, who had always been her ally, was no longer on her side.
ine could hardly believe that her daughter would side with Charlie in this situation.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Being the drama queen she was, ine immediately began to y the victim. As she sensed her control over the household slipping away, her eyes welled with tears, and she began her performance.
With a quivering voice, shemented, “I feel so unnecessary in this house. Your father doesn’t care about me anymore. Your husband is threatening to kick me out, and you aren’t even on my side…”
As she spoke, ine’s lips trembled and tears streamed down her face.
ire sighed, feeling helpless, before replying, “Mom, you’re not in the right here. I can’t always take your side.”
Despite feeling sympathy for her mother’s struggles, ire believed that those challenges didn’t justify ine’s outbursts directed at Charlie or her insults toward Mrs. Lewis.
Moreover, ire was well aware of Charlie’s difficult upbringing. He had few rtives in this world.
Aside from her, Mrs. Lewis was the only person Charlie considered family.
This was precisely why Charlie had worked so hard to raise funds for Mrs. Lewis’s treatment earlier.
ire knew how much Charlie cherished Mrs. Lewis, viewing her as a mother figure.
She admired Charlie’s loyalty and gratitude, which was why she had willingly given him her savings to help with Mrs. Lewis’s care.
Deep down, ire felt that her mother was being unreasonable. Consequently, she found it impossible to defend ine’s actions at this moment.
With tears streaming down her face, ine sighed, “Do I even have a ce in this family anymore? My life feels so pitiful.”
Charlie, fed up with ine’s theatrics, decided he could no longer tolerate this behavior. He turned to ire and said, “My dear, I’m heading to the orphanage now. I won’t be home for dinner.”
ire quickly stood up, saying, “I’lle with you. It’s been ages since Ist saw Mrs. Lewis. Ourst visit to her in the hospital was months ago, and I really miss her.”
ire had always been a devoted wife. She not only supported Charlie’s decision to help Mrs. Lewis but also frequently apanied him to visit her. She treated Mrs. Lewis with the same care and respect that Charlie did.<fn437d> This content belongs to F?nd-Novel</fn437d>
Mrs. Lewis, in turn, held a special fondness for ire, treating her like a daughter-inw.
Seeing ire’s eagerness to join him, Charlie smiled and said, “Great! We can go together. Mrs. Lewis asked about you thest time I spoke to her. I’m sure she misses you too.”
ire replied, “Let’s head out then.”
Upon hearing that ire was leaving with Charlie, ine cried out, “My sweet daughter, are you upset with me? Are you really going to ignore your mother too?”
ire looked at ine with a sense of helplessness and replied, “Mom, I genuinely hope you can reflect on everything that’s happened over the past two days and consider changing your attitude. If not, you’ll only face more difficulties ahead.”
Hearing this, ine sank to the floor, crying out, “What’s the point of my existence? My only family, my dear daughter, has turned her back on me. The police shouldn’t have let me out of detention. I’d be better off dead…”
In the past, ire would have softened at her mother’s outbursts and given in to her demands. However, this time, she understood that ine’s current behavior would only lead to greater suffering in the future. Thus, ire realized she could no longer indulge her mother’s temper and attitude.<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
