Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father by Pixie

S2 21. Materialistic Daughter In-Law

Melanie smiled wryly. Her hands were folded in front of her chest. “Do you realize who you are talking to? I am your mother-in-law, the mother of the man who supports you and your children. You should not talk to me like that. Your position is not higher.”

“So? Can someone with a higher state do anything she likes? Including things that harm other people?”

The corners of Kara’s lips twitched slightly. “Sorry, Mom. I can’t let that happen in this house, especially with the twins who need role models. I want them to grow up well, without being polluted by bad influences.”

“You’re calling me a bad influence?” Melanie’s tone rose drastically.

“Aren’t you?”

Melanie’s breath suddenly roared. “How dare you mock me? You should be grateful for living in such a magnificent house, be submissive and obedient to us. But it turns out? You’re so selfish, shameless, and ungrateful.”

“It seems I’m not the one who’s shameless here, but you, Mom. as a parent should set a good example, not cause a fuss.”

Melanie stared wide eyed. “You don’t realize where you are now? my daughter’s room! You’re the one who came here and caused a fuss. Not me!”

“What do you actually want from us?” Kara interrupted, tired of the drawn-out argument. “Ever since you arrived here, you have shown your dislike for us. Do you deliberately make us feel uncomfortable? You don’t secretly hope that we would leave this house, right?”

+25 BONU!

Melanie snorted. She wanted to confess, but the door was not closed. The plan could be ruined if someone recorded it from outside.

“What did we do wrong, Mom? Why don’t you like us? Even the twins? They are so innocent. Your sons’ flesh and blood. Why do you hate them too?”

Kara’s voice started to get hoarse. Her face was wrinkled with

“Can’t we just make peace? If you and Barbara stop bothering us, there won’t be arguments like this anymore. We can live peacefully in this house.”

Barbara secretly glanced at Melanie. She was curious what answer her mother would give.

Instead of answering, Melanie leaned her back against the door until it was completely closed.

“You want to make peace?” Melanie’s eyes narrowed.

Kara nodded. “Yes.”
