Ex Cried as I Wed a Tycoon

Chapter 478

Back then, none of them had bothered to look too deeply into Effie's background.

They'd all been too busy turning up their noses at where she came from to imagine she might be more than she seemed.

Looking back now, they realized just how much they'd missed.

But regret was useless. No-she refused to regret anything.

Her son was outstanding; he'd meet someone even better in the future.

Still, Adeline couldn't resist reminding Mitchell, “I ran into Suzan today. Can you believe she actually begged me to let her see you? I threw her out, of course. After everything she's done to us, she still has the nerve to show up at my door. Unbelievable."

When Mitchell didn't react, she pressed on, "Listen to me, don't be stupid. Stay away from that trash, Suzan. She'll only drag you down!"

Mitchell finally looked up at her. "You're the one who pushed me toward her in the first place. You said her uncle was Lionel, remember? Honestly...I got bored of her ages ago."

Adeline huffed, "How was I supposed to know she was such a walking disaster? If I'd known, I never would've let you get involved with her! You have no idea- today, she went crazy in front of Effie, grabbing her hand and causing a scene-"

"Mom, my head's killing me. Can you please just stop talking for a minute so I can rest?"
