Chapter 270

Chapter 270:

“Enough! What do you want from me?” Eileen said. Denise’s words had hit Eileen like a ton of bricks. If Eileen could, she wished she could give her life back to Denise.

Denise said without hesitation, “Do you even see me as your mother? I traveled all the way to Onaland, and you can’t even sort me a place to stay.”

Eileen regarded Denise and Judie with an indifferent gaze. “Your accommodation is of concern to me. My responsibility towards you extends only to providing a monthly living allowance. I have no intention of residing with you.”

Judie quickly said, “Eileen, that’s heartless. You splash cash on someone who’s not even related to you but won’t give your own mom a roof.”

Denise stamped her foot, hands on her hips. “Yeah, Eileen! You’ve moved up in the world, and now you’re ditching me? I could take you to court!”

The breeze carried Denise’s words, spreading them to the onlookers.

“Are you done?” Eileen tried hard to keep her cool. “Do we really have to go over everything again? When did you even consider bringing me along?”

Denise clenched her teeth, whirled around, and shouted, “Hey, everyone! Come and see! My own daughter is cutting ties with me! She’s marrying into a wealthy family and becoming a rich lady, but she doesn’t want me as her mother!”

Her shameless performance drew many people, especially since it was rush hour and the streets were crowded.

Eileen had no intention of talking to someone as shameless as Denise. She turned to head back to the educational agency, but Judie grabbed her wrist to stop her. Denise continued, “Hey, everyone, gather around! You won’t believe this. My own daughter is being so ungrateful!” Denise’s voice rang out, while Judie clung tightly to Eileen, stopping her from leaving.

Feeling utterly helpless, Eileen stood amidst the judgmental stares.

Facing the intense scrutiny of the crowd, Eileen exclaimed, “I said I would cut ties with you! I promised to send you money every month according to the law, so you can live comfortably back home!”

“I knew it! You still see me as a burden!” Denise’s tone softened momentarily before she changed the topic. “But why are you trying to kick me out of Onaland? Is it because having me around will ruin your chances of marrying into a wealthy family?”

Before Eileen could reply, Denise turned to the crowd, asking, “Any of you folks heard of the Dawson family? My daughter’s marrying into the Dawson family, but she’s from an ordinary background. The Dawson family must want her to cut ties with me!”

The wild accusations against the family caught Eileen off guard.

Lately, with Kian’s news stirring up attention, many eyes were on Bryan’s press conference where he had announced his marriage to Eileen. Initially, people had been there for Kian’s scandal, but instead, they had found a classic rags-to-riches story.
