Meeting The One For Me

Chapter 20

As she recorded the call, Audrey controlled her emotions and spoke with composure.

She retorted, “How can you be so shameless to utter such words? My birth mother had a happy family before she was taken to your town. You didn’t give her clothes, fed her like a pig once a day, and kept her chained in a cellar, beaten and abused. Her legs were broken.

“You call that kindness? She was abducted at 16, forced to bear children from the age of 17. Any girl she birthed was killed. After eight children, she died on the operating table with her ninth. Is that your definition of kindness?”

Audrey’s words enraged Donna, who reflexively tried to destroy Audrey with the most vile and vulgar

insults.

“You! You dirty, despicable woman! Going to a place filled where men and women are crammed together into one room under the guise of studying. Behind closed doors, it’s nothing but debauchery and lowly acts. All of you are nothing but loose women in need!”

Audrey’s eyebrows lifted slightly. She raised her voice, “Shesyea University is a top–tier institution. A sacred place that has nurtured countless talents for our nation. Don’t tarnish its students with your filthy thoughts!”

Donna thought she had hit a nerve and intensified her vile assault.

“Hmph! A prestigious school? The girls from your school have been tangled up with so many men, they’re nothing but spoiled goods. Who knows if they can even bear children in the future!”

“Mom, give me the phone!”

Adam’s aunt, Tia Yeomans, snatched the phone from Donna. As always, she played the good cop. She said calmly, “Audrey, don’t be mad at your grandma. We’re still family, after all. Bones may break, but the sinew remains connected.

“You’re 25, unmarried, and spending money on college. Your dad only asked you to get the tuition back for your own good. That college is just a scam! A young girl should marry early… The better your your contribution to the family, as he’s the marriage is, the more it helps your brother find a wife. It pillar of the Yeomans family.”
