Chapter 97
The caller was none other than Madison.
Natalie really didn't know why her so-called "mother" was calling her at that point in time.
She frowned slightly before deciding to hang up.
A few seconds later, the phone rang again like a death alarm, piercing into her ears with a blaring sound.
There was a conflicted emotion brewing in Natalie's eyes. After a moment of deliberation, she decided to answer the call.
"What is it?" Natalie said directly.
Her voice was cold and devoid of any warmth.
On the other end of the phone, Madison was furious. "Natalie, are you even forgetting that I'm your mother now?"
"Do you think you deserve to be my mother?" Natalie's tone was full of disgust. "Also, when I left you guys, Tobias had already given you a sum of money. From now on, we are no longer related!"
Madison, who was on the other end of the phone, was silent for a moment before she gnashed her teeth and retorted, "No matter what, I am still your mother. I was the one who gave birth to you and raised you. Don't you have any conscience at all?"
"Why are you calling me now? Just get straight to the point." Natalie interrupted Madison. "Come out to meet me. I have something to tell you." Madison's tone was domineering.
"Why should I meet you? We have ceased to have anything to do with each other." Natalie refused Madison.
"Natalie, you don't care about me, do you? I gave birth to you and raised you, but now you don't even want to see me anymore. You have no conscience at all. I was pregnant with you for nine months, and is this how you repay me?" Madison's tone was aggressive.
Natalie started to have a headache listening to her.
Madison loved to bring this up every time. She always reminded Natalie to repay her for all the pain and suffering inflicted upon her for bearing Natalie in her belly.
"This concerns your dad too. If your dad knows that you don't want to come out even though I am the one asking you to, what would your father think of you?" Madison's tone suddenly became gloomy.
Natalie felt her breath come to a halt.
After a long silence.
"Where are you?" Natalie asked.
Madison told her an address. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
After Madison hung up, Queenie who was next to her complained, "Mom, why are you behaving like this? You were being way too polite to that bit*h. You should have scolded that bit*h while you can."
When Queenie mentioned Natalie, she couldn't help but gnash her teeth. Natalie's name brought back flashbacks of how she was embarrassed in school, and from then on she could no longer hold on to the pretense of being beautiful and rich. She wished she could tear Natalie apart.
"What do you know?" Madison glared at Queenie. "You think that bit*h is easy to fool? If I curse her on the phone, do you think she would want to meet me?"
Queenie suddenly understood her reasons. She looked at Madison happily and praised her, "Mom, you're the smartest."
Madison replied proudly, "Of course. The older someone is, the wiser she is."
As she said this, a vicious look flashed across her face. "When Natalie comes, I'll teach her a lesson. How dare a b*tch like her dare to hurt my daughter!"
Queenie was outraged as she chipped in. "Yes, teach her a lesson and make sure that b*tch will meet her end!"
Natalie headed to an amusement park in the city.
This was the address Madison had agreed to meet her at.
She didn't know why Madison was looking for her. In fact, she could always turn her down. She never intended to see Madison anymore after falling out with the Godfrey family. She had planned to cut Madison off completely.
However, when Madison mentioned her father, she still felt guilty.
Furthermore, when Madison talked to her on the phone just now, it was the first time she didn't call Natalie a b*tch.
Natalie knew very well that she still had an unrealistic expectation in her heart.
No matter how cruel she had been treated, she still hoped that her mother would realize her mistakes one day. No matter what happened, everyone still had a soft spot for their mothers.
Even though Natalie despised Madison, she was no exception to this saying.
When she arrived at the park, Natalie saw Madison's stout figure from a distance. She was standing near the centre of the park while pacing back and forth impatiently.
Natalie strode towards her.
When Madison saw Natalie, there was a flash of fierceness in her eyes.
"Why are you looking for me?" Natalie stared at Madison calmly.
"You b*tch. Tell me, are you the one who has done those things to Queenie?" Madison immediately came forward and confronted her.
Natalie felt her breathing stopped momentarily.
After a while, a bitter smile appeared on her lips. It turned out Madison had called her here because of Queenie.
Natalie suddenly realized that she had such ridiculous thoughts. She really was stupid.
She ridiculed herself for fantasizing that Madison had turned over a new leaf since she for once didn't curse her out on the phone. After all, she had been away from the Godfrey family for so long, so it would only be natural for any mother to miss her daughter.
Natalie wanted to slap herself.
Natalie was the biggest moron in existence.
"Yes, I was the one who did that." Natalie answered directly, "So what?"
"Slap!"
Before Natalie could say anything, Madison suddenly slapped Natalie viciously.
A bright red palm print immediately appeared on Natalie's pale face.
"You b*tch, I always knew that you were a good-for-nothing. How could I give birth to a b*tch like you? You're just jealous that your sister is more beautiful than you. Why don't you look into the mirror and take a good look at yourself? How dare you hurt your sister?"
On the other hand, Queenie, who had been hiding behind a bush, suddenly jumped out.
At first, she hid behind the bushes because she was afraid that Natalie would leave when Natalie saw her together with Madison.
"Mom, as I've said, this b*tch harmed me. This woman is just jealous of me. Mom. Beat her to death!" Queenie pointed at Natalie and shouted.
The despair on Natalie's face suddenly turned into a chilling sensation.
She threatened coldly, "If you do that to me, aren't you afraid that Tobias will come to you in revenge?" Madison's body stiffened.
She recalled that the man who came to pick up Natalie was indeed a big shot at first glance. She was so focused on avenging Queenie to the point that she had forgotten about this. What if that same man looked for her to retaliate just because she messed with Natalie?
Madison was in a pickle.
Queenie saw that Madison was hesitant, so she suddenly became anxious. She shouted, "Mom, do you believe her? Look at her. That man must have abandoned her after toying with her for a few days. That man must have chosen her on a whim. Do you think that he would marry her to help this b*tch? Mom, don't be fooled by her!"
After hearing Queenie's words, Madison suddenly felt that she made sense.
That man from that day was handsome and rich. Madison hardly believed that he would marry Natalie. She was probably nothing more than a plaything for him to toy around with for a few days. Madison thought that since it had been a while since that day, maybe Queenie was right. That man was surely tired of Natalie at the moment.
