Chapter 55

The moment those words were spoken, Cloudia on the other end of the phone was about to explode.

"From two thousand to ten thousand isn't enough? What on earth do you want?"

To Cloudia, ten thousand was no small sum for Stella, especially considering the humble background she came from. Stella never wanted to spill the details about her foster family. Probably because they were too poor. Even if she was her own flesh and blood, Cloudia couldn't help but feel Stella was being incredibly hypocritical.

After all, weren't they the ones who raised her? How could she look down on them? Two years ago, they had offered her a deal - if she told who her foster family was, they would offer them a sum of money. Now, it seemed better to let it go. Their poor upbringing left Stella without having a shred of gratitude.

"I don't want anything."

"Well, you better think it through. If you can't pay your rent and get kicked out, don't blame me for being heartless."

The meaning behind those words was clear. If she couldn't afford to stay at Silk-River Residences, she shouldn't dream of coming back to the Larkin family.

Stella blinked, gazing at the bright sunshine outside the window, "To reach this point as a mother, truly an eye-opener for me."

Without waiting for Cloudia to respond, Stella hung up first.

Being a mother like that...huh! Stella genuinely wished Cloudia could forget she ever bore that title.

At this moment, Stella felt like she was being unfairly accused.
