Chapter 222
Betty’s POV
Although I knew that Betty was aggressive to me, I was ready to cut all ties with her.
But as soon as I turned around, I couldn’t help crying.
“I hope you can keep your word.” Belly shouted from behind,
I didn’t look back. I walked forward with my head held high and chest out, and my tears fell uncontrollably
I went home to accompany Lucky. I didn’t have lunch, so I had no appetite at all.
At about two o’clock in the afternoon, mother came back.
“Bella, have you had lunch? Belly asked me to bring you a lot of food.” Mother was changing slippers at the door, carrying a big bag full of food. I knew Betty was acting in front of mother again. She pretended to care about me, but in fact, she was attacking me and hurting me. I never thought Betty would be so hypocritical. “Mom, I’ve already eaten it,” I replied flatly.
“Then I’ll put it in the refrigerator.” Mother smiled and carried the things into the kitchen.
I was upset, but I couldn’t tell Mom. I couldn’t let her be sad. Since she wanted to play pretend, then we would do it together. I knew how to act, but I just didn’t want to be so hypocritical. After putting the things into the refrigerator, mother came over and asked, “Where is Lucky?” “She just fell asleep,” I replied. Mother nodded, sat down in front of me, and said with a smile, “I was worried that Betty and Hank would have a hard time. After all, they are very young. Hank is a professor, Betty has not graduated from college, but Hank is very good, and his parents are also very good.” Seeing that mother was very happy, I didn’t want to make her unhappy, so I echoed, “Betty will definitely be happy in the future.” “Yeah, I’m not worried about Betty anymore. Now you’re the only one left, but you have a child now…” When mother said to me, she looked depressed again, I quickly interrupted her, “Mom, when Lucky gets older, I’ll go out to work. I can also support myself. I don’t want to get married in the future. I just need you and Lucky.” “How can you not get married? You are still so young. Do you want to spend the rest of your life with Lucky?” Mother immediately objected. “Mom, you managed to raise Betty and I” I said, Mother immediately frowned and said, ‘You can’t live a miserable life like me!” “Bella, who is the father of the child? Every time I ask you, you won’t tell me.” Mother began to urge
15.51 me
Although I didn’t live at home for a long time, my mother had asked me countless times who my child’s father was. Every time I heard this question, I had a headache. I would never tell anyone about the name of Herbert, because if my mother made trouble for him, he would definitely take revenge.
