Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 263

Zoey tugged Wendy to sit down on the couch in her bedroom.

“Come on, Wendy. Stop sulking. Since Lionel has to stay at Hallsbay a little longer for work, why don't you stay here with him? Didn't my mom say that it's almost Thanksgiving? We can have a nice dinner together then.”

Wendy's expression was still dark. Boiling anger simmered in her eyes.

Lionel has been keeping me at arm's length since we arrived at Hallsbay. Every time I look at him, it's like trying to find my way out of a foggy maze, hazy and ethereal. It's like he can disappear, leaving me at any moment. All his changes were because of that woman from the Saunders family. She's the one who ensnared Lionel's soul and left me with an empty shell.

Zoey's heart surged with joy when she noticed Wendy trying to suppress her rage.

It looks like I'm right. This princess does have hatred and resentment for Victoria.

“What's wrong, Wendy? You look as though something is bothering you. If you're troubled by something, you can always talk to me. We're cousins now, so I'll definitely take your side. Did Lionel do something to make you sad again?”

Wendy pressed her lips into a line and turned to Zoey. “Zoey, do you know Victoria Saunders?”

“Um...” Zoey paused. Hesitation crept up her face as she purposely fumbled with her words. “Victoria... S-She...”

Seeing her stammer, Wendy snickered. “Whatever. You're Lionel's cousin. Naturally, you'll take his side. I'm sure you're unwilling to help me expose him. I'll be taking my leave if there's nothing else important. Let's meet again if there's a chance.”

She was about to get up from her chair when Zoey hurriedly reached for her hand. “I'm not on Lionel's side. I'm worried that you won't be happy if I bring Victoria into the conversation. After all, she's Lionel's ex-girlfriend, and they had an intense relationship. However, don't worry. That woman betrayed Lionel. I want nothing more than to tear off that fake, innocent mask she wears,” Zoey explained urgently.

Wendy cast a sideway glance at Zoey. “Is that true? You don't like her too?”

Zoey answered resignedly, “Wendy, what's up with your question? She was the one who caused Uncle Benjamin's death and tarnished Lionel's reputation. How can I like her?”

“Then, will you help me chase her away from Lionel's side?”

Wendy grabbed Zoey's wrist and went on in a choked-up voice, “She's approaching Lionel again. I'm sure her motive isn't pure. It was hard for Lionel to turn over a new leaf. I don't want her to ruin him again.”
