Trading My Ex for His Uncle by Hello Spring

Chapter 1039 Wilhelm froze for a moment, his eyes welling up with tears as confusion and hurt clouded them.

"Mommy, do you really not want me anymore?" he asked, his voice trembling.

Jane's gaze flickered with a brief trace of pain as she looked at Wilhelm sitting pitifully on the floor. But the softness in her eyes vanished as quickly as it appeared.

She stared at him coldly. "That's right. I never wanted you. I hit you to try and get your father to come back.

"The other day, when I took you out for steak, I deliberately let you eat that hazelnut cake. You started itching later because you're allergic—that was intentional, too. I wanted you hospitalized so I could force your father to see me."

Her tone grew harsher. "Now that Gabriel and I are divorced, you're of no use to me. You're just a burden. Taking you with me would only drag me down.

"And I hate your father. Naturally, I hate you, too. Don't show up in front of me again!"

Wilhelm sat frozen, her words cutting into him like shards of glass.

Then, his body trembled as tears streamed down his cheeks. "No! That's not true! Mommy, you're lying! You would never abandon me!"
