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.”

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.”

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?”
