Rural Belle & Three Heirs by Harper Hall

Chapter 296 She Is Just an Outsider

Anissa, who always prided herself on being calm and composed, completely lost it when she found out Michael was gay. She hurled the teacup in her hand to the ground with a crash.

Isidora watched Anissa, assuming she was still upset about Grant and Chloe.

Trying to stir the pot, Isidora guessed Anissa's thoughts.

She comforted, "Anissa, don't be so mad. The doctor said too much anger is bad for your health."

"Today's situation was out of my control. If I had been tougher last night and kept Grant here, he wouldn't have fallen for Chloe's tricks."

"Anissa, Chloe is so sneaky. She goes out with a fake mole on her face to make people think she's ugly, but she's actually quite pretty."

"No wonder Grant was so easily fooled by her..."

Anissa was already furious, and Isidora's words only made it worse.

Her three sons each seemed like deliberate challenges from the heavens, testing the very limits of her patience and resolve. Her eldest defied her wishes, stubbornly marrying that Chloe she'd always disapproved of, even daring to confront her over it. Before she could catch her breath from that blow, her second son delivered the ultimate shock - he was gay. The revelation struck like lightning, each revelation piling upon her like mountains, crushing the breath from her lungs.

And Isidora just kept going on and on.

Anissa couldn't take it anymore. She yelled at Isidora, "Get out right now!"

Isidora was startled by Anissa's sudden outburst and quickly left.

Downstairs, Isidora felt particularly wronged. Anissa had taken her anger out on her, and she needed to vent it somewhere.

Just then, she saw Mia cleaning the living room with a mop. Isidora had always disliked Mia for defending Chloe, but she never had the chance to confront her.
