Chapter 369

Amelia asked with a concerned tone, "What's your mother's name?"

Jessica's voice suddenly cooled down. "Her surname is Bland. She's a shrink."

Amelia knitted her beautiful brows immediately at that. Sometimes life just liked to play this kind of joke that one could never be amused!

"What kind of person is she?" Calming herself down, Amelia kept asking.

Without a second thought, Jessica blurt out, "She? She's just a b*tch!"

Other than being silent, Amelia wasn't sure what else she could do.

Jessica emphasized, "You didn't get it wrong. She's a b*tch to me! You must have wondered why I never came home all these years in college and at work. That's because of my mother! She makes me feel ashamed!"

Amelia had never heard her friend being so emotional. At the mention of the subject, Jessica spoke openly herself, "When I was a freshman, my father was diagnosed with bowel cancer. Do you know what my mother did? One day, I skipped

school to go home, only to find that she was pressed against the sofa by a man, leaving him to do whatever he wanted to her. I beat that man away with a chair, but my mother slapped me on the face and said I ruined her plan! Ah, isn't it a shame to have such a mother?"

Amelia swallowed hard. "She doesn't look like such a kind of woman..."

Jessica blanked for few seconds before she asked doubtfully, "Amelia, what do you mean by that? Have you seen my mom?"

"You misheard me. I was saying that I didn't expect your mother to be such a kind of woman!" Amelia explained in time.

"Oh, okay..." said Jessica.

Amelia wiped off a drop of sweat gratefully when Jessica did not ask more. "Jessica, do you hate her?"
