Simone guessed, “Most likely, she wants to get the mystical tool from you and give it to Jodie

Gwen also realized this and found Melinda unreasonable. She put the call on speakerphone, aying, “What brings you to call me out of the blue today?”

Upon hearing Gwen’s sarcasm, Melinda was not pleased, but upon considering the purpose of her call, she had no choice but to accept it. She spoke gently. Tm your mother. Can’t I show some concern for you?”

Gwen didn’t fall for it. “So, today is not a normal day as the sun rose from the west.”

Melinda was speechless. Knowing that a gentle approach wouldn’t work, she decided to get straight to the point. I have something to discuss with you.”

Gwen lazily responded, “That’s right; just get to the point. There’s no need to pretend to be a loving mother. It’s disgusting.”

Melinda was so angry that she stumbled back. “You!” She took a deep breath and softened her tone as much as possible. “We’re mother and daughter. Must we make it so tense?”

Gwen yawned. “Why is it so tense? Don’t you have any motives? Stop beating around the bush. If you have something to say, say it. If not, just hang up. I’m busy and don’t have time to engage in this mother–daughter drama with you. If you want to act, go find Skyler and Leon. They would be happy to play with you.”

Melinda’s face changed. “Gwen, you’re going too far. Since what I said to you didn’t work, do I need

your father to come and talk to you personally?” She knew she couldn’t control Gwen, so she brought up Adam.

Gwen wasn’t afraid. “Then, let him come find me. By then, I’ll have a good talk with Grandma and him. And while we’re at it, I’ll have Grandma invite you back to the mansion for a meal.”

Melinda choked. “You ungrateful daughter! You do want to anger me to death, don’t you?”
