Chapter 432 Vanessa Was Scared Out of Her Mind

Phoebe figured her resilience came from Evelyn toughening her up.

Phoebe shot back, "Thanks. In my crappy, rainy world, I still have a loud mom like you."

Evelyn was stunned and poked Phoebe's forehead hard. "I raised an ungrateful brat like you, huh?"

Phoebe just closed her eyes, playing dumb.

Evelyn fumed. "I must've owed you in a past life. Do whatever you want. I don't care anymore."

Phoebe stayed silent.

Evelyn felt awkward and sat by the bed, remembering Phoebe's ramblings when she was unconscious. She got even angrier.

"It's been over three years. When will you let it go?" Evelyn asked. "Phoebe, have I ever used your marriage for my gain? Why do you hate me so much?" Phoebe's eyelashes trembled.

"Forget it. What's the point now? If you want to resent me, I can't stop you. If you want to divorce Theodore, I can't stop you either. Do what makes you happy," Evelyn said, looking indifferent. Evelyn was exhausted and didn't want to care anymore.

Phoebe bit her lip and stayed quiet.

Evelyn sat for a while longer. Seeing Phoebe still wouldn't talk, she felt a strange sadness. "Go to sleep. I won't bother you."

Evelyn got up and left the room.
