Crossroads

Chapter 297

“What are you doing here?” Chlor asked..

I’m here shopping. Do I need your permission for that?” Typically, Molly was all about keeping the peace and disliked arguments, but seeing Chloe drained the smile from her face. Molly quickly walked over to Stephanie, tugging her to indicate they should leave. Molly had no desire to stay around with such a woman.

However, Chloe seemed determined to pick a fight. Teetering on her four inch high heels, she marched straight over and blocked Molly’s path, her tone dripping with arrogance. You came here to buy a gift for my son, didn’t you?

Chloe’s attitude made Stephanie furious. She wasn’t one to seek but trouble, but she also wasn’t someone who could be pushed around, especially not by a woman who was bullying her friend

Just as Stephanie was about to confront her, she was surprised to see the umally meek Molly even more incensed.

Andy was left unsupervised while you were busy flaunting your bikini to attract other men. Andy might know a few swimming tricks, but he’s only six. If the lifeguard hadn’t noticed in time, he could have…..”

Molly was seething her words cutting through the air. She couldn’t understand how such a mother could exist.

Stephanie was shocked by what she heard, and even Hayley, standing beside Chloe, furrowed her brows, Chloe had always shown little affection for her own son, even harboring resentment for giving birth to him

Chloe may come off as blunt, but it’s because she feels Molly is getting too close to her son with questionable intentions. Her reaction makes sense.”

“What questionable intentions?”
