The Heiress’ Return & Revenge

Chapter 403 Do You Want To Drive Me Away Too? 

Simone had completed what she needed to do, so she decided to say her goodbyes.

Karah stood up and held her hand, saying. “Let me see you off.”

Elbe said to Simone, “Do drop by the hospital to check on me, considering my infertility.”

The wor-is hir Old Mr. and Mrs. Johnston emotionally. If their grandson was indeed infertile, what would happen in the future? They would have even more grievances toward their own daughter.

Simone chuckled and shook her head, then playfully winked at him, saying, “I’ll go back and make a het bag for you. Being infertile isn’t as easy as it seems.

By temporarily suppressing the curse, Elbert could avoid becoming infertile. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Tie was deeply loved and exclaimed, “Simone is still the best in my family.”

Aunt Karah escorted Simone out, and the Gray brothers, including Titus, followed along.

Due to their mother’s actions, they felt ashamed to stay any longer. Moreover, they need to inform their father about the situation.

On the way, Simone whispered to Aunt Karah, “Mrs. Karah, don’t you worry. However, in the next week or so, you guys still need to act out your roles.”

“Auntie Bridgette should relay your emotions and feedback to Mrs. Gray, she added.

Aunt Karah nodded. “Alright, if there’s anything urgent on my end, I’ll get in touch with you.”

As long as the curse on her son was not lifted, she would continue to worry. That was why putting on this act felt more genuine.

After seeing Simone off at the parking lot, Mrs. Karah greeted the Gray brothers before returning to the hospital ward.

Titus said to Simone, “Mom might be angry with you again this time.”

Simone shrugged and said indifferently, “I know, but I don’t care. It’s not like I forced her to do what shie did. Can’t she let me expose the truth?”

“Besides,” s continued, Jodie and the person behind her have ulterior motives. Even if it wasn’t for me today, it yould have been exposed in a few days.”

Titus nodded, “True. We don’t think you did anything wrong by helping the Johnston Family.”

“Just wanted to remind you to be careful with Mom and Jodie lately. They’ve been picking on us a lot.” He sighed bitterly.

Lately, they found themselves under the constant scrutiny of their birth mother’s disapproval.

Simone nodded in acknowledgment. “I understand.”

She was afraid they wouldn’t cause any trouble. Things were easier to manage after they caused a ruckus, specially when it came to Jodie.

Simone kept an eye on the person behind her, capable of absorbing more luck to continuously support

Wter Simone drove away, Titus pulled out his phone to contact their birth father.

Once the call was answered, he recounted the hospital incident to his father, Steven.

Steven was furious that he was almost on the verge of a stroke. He had been away on a business trip for a while, and his wife had pulled such a stunt again.

Why can’t sne stop being a hindrance?” he exclaimed to his son.

After hanging up the phone with his son, he dialed Salma’s number and began scolding her.

However, Salma was deficit and retorted, claiming she did what she did because their daughter-i aw deserved it.

It seemed that she was just the way she was, and her family couldn’t stand to see her doing well.

Steven knew that continuing the argument wouldn’t make a difference.

She didn’t see herself as wrong; instead, she believed her family was exaggerating the situation. So, he changed the topic. Just send Jodie away by today.”

Salma was stubborn and said, “I won’t send her away. Jodie is also our adopted daughter. How can you be so heartless?”

Steven was irritated. “I wouldn’t dare keep such a scheming and heartless adopted daughter. My daughter is only Simone.”

Salma sneered. “Your heart only has room for Simone, but she has to be willing to acknowledge you as her father!” She added angrily. “If it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t have been blamed by my family

Steven had a headache and retorted, “Even if Simone doesn’t acknowledge me, she’s still my daughter. And this is clearly your fault; you caused trouble yourself, so it’s normal for your family to blame you. What does this have to do with Simone? As soon as an incident happens, the Johnston Family will eventually find out the reason, and it will lead back to you.”

Salma was interested in hearing more and said, “The trouble has already happened. Is saying all this useful?”

Steven emphasized, “Indeed, it’s not useful. So, today, you must send Jodie away immediately.”

“I wound her away. If Melinda lets that great warlock target me again, the master Jodie knows can help me, she asisted..

Steven’s face darkened. “Why are you so naive? Her so-called help is just a way to deceive you!”

Impatient, Salma retorted, “Can you stop thinking so badly of Jodic and the master?”

No one in the family, husband and children alike, could stand her. It was so frustrating,

Steven took a deep breath. If you don’t send her away, then you can move out of the Gray Family with Jocle.

He wasn’t joking or threatening. If his wife insisted on being with Jodie, then he would grant her wish.

the kindness and accommodation he had shown her couldn’t win her gratitude. Besides sappointment, his heart had also turned cold.

Salma couldn’t believe it, and her voice was tinged with sharpness, “What? You want to drive me away, too? Did you have an affair outside and want to make room for someone else?”

Steven’s voice turned dark. “You’re simply being unreasonable. I haven’t had an affair; I have a clear conscience. Eyou don’t believe me, you can investigate.”

I’ll give you two choices right now. Either send Jodie away immediately and sever all ties, or you nd Jodie move out together,” he stated.

Fine, you’re all forcing me” Salma reluctantly agreed. “If no one can accept me, then I’ll leav

Steven’s heart grew.cler. “Good, take Jodie with you.”

If his wife continued down this path, he was ready to bring up the dreaded word-divorce. He couldn’t bear to see the entire Gray household crumble because of such a troublesome person.

They ended the call on a sour note.

Salma angrily called Jodie to pack up, announcing they were moving out. Jodie hadn’t expected things to escalate to this point. She was taken aback by her stepmother’s decision, but after a moment’s thought, she realized it was because her stepmother still found her useful. Without benefits and her accommodating attitude, her stepmother might turn against her at any moment.

A stepmother was still a stepmother and incomparable to a real mother.

Jodie wanted to stay and was hoping her stepbrothers would come back to her. However, she knew Steven had given the order, and she had no choice. She grumbled about her father being too heartless, for she had called him ‘dad’ so many times in vain.

The Gray brothers were speechless at their mother’s choice. But they were relieved to finally get rid of the trouble that Jodie had become.

As for their other, they sighed, hoping she would come to her senses after enduring the hardships brought by die. They offered to help, but Salma rejected their assistance.

Eventual, the brothers reluctantly moved both women to a villa nearby that was under Salma’s name. They alo brought along a few servants to help them move and settle in with Jodie.

Salma still held a grudge. So, every day, she would make the three brothers come to the villa to eat together If they didn’t come, she would call and nag and scold them.

During meals, the three brothers became her targets for venting her frustrati

Titus and his brothers endured untold suffering, and as a result, their feelings toward their birth mother grew increasingly distant. To make matters worse, a hint of resentment began to build iir hearts. Dealing with a mother like this was truly a challenging ordeal for them…
