Catlin had expected Stephanie to show gratitude. After all, thirty thousand dollars would be an enormous sum for a country girl.

Stephanie had always refused to leak her adoptive parents‘ information. Catlin thought they must be rustic people.

She despised Stephanie for concealing the fact.

Had she told her adoptive parents‘ information two years ago, she would have paid them a good sum.

But now she had no such intention, for their education seemed unsuccessful.

“I want nothing.” Stephanie was reluctant to haggle with her.

“Don’t be so sure. Anyway, if you get driven out and reduced into vagrancy, I won’t feel sorry.”

She meant that she wouldn’t take Stephanie in any circumstance.

Stephanie was disappointed. But she had always been disappointed. So she looked outside. It was a beautiful sunny day. “You’re not my mother,” She muttered.

Before Catlin could pursue, she had hung it up.

Stephanie wished Catlin could stop addressing her as her mother.

Being associated with such a woman brought her nothing but anger, disappointment, and shame.

In the hospital, Catlin was furious.

She tried to redial, only t find her number had been blocked.

Tyler walked over. She complained to him. “She blocked me! How can she do that?”

Stephanie didn’t show the respect that she hoped.

Tyler looked still pale. He hadn’t fully recovered from Stephanie’s kick yet.

“Does it still hurt?” Catlin was worried.

“No, it’s much better,” replied Tyler.

He was angry with Stephanie too.

He wondered why on earth both Dr. Vitale and Dr. Pierce were Stephanie’s acquaintance.
