Chapter 280 Faye’s True Colors, Coolest Girl in Town
Then, Jeanie spun around and looked at her, saying, “Mom, shouldn’t Yoyo be calling you Grandma?” Tears of joy rolled down Bertha’s face. “What did you call me earlier? You called me Mom! Jeanie, you finally remembered who I am!” Pulling Elise, Jeanie gazed at Bertha pleadingly as she said, “Mom, please don’t drive Yoyo away, okay?” Bertha gave her a nod. “Okay, she’s not going anywhere,” she uttered, turning to Elise. “Elise, stay and have a chat with her.” Having received approval, Elise answered, “Okay. I got it, Madam!” After glancing at the unlocked door, Bertha paced over and saw Faye standing outside.
“Didn’t you understand what I said, little fox? Get away from here.” Even though Faye wanted to say something more, Bertha slammed the door shut in her face with a loud bang. Snubbed and disgruntled, Faye stood outside until her expression gradually turned grim. Silently, her hands by her sides clenched tightly, and the servant in a corner paced to her cautiously before asking, “Are you okay, Miss Faye?” “I’m fine,” she answered in indifference. “Miss Faye, will our plans be ruined now that you got this outsider here?” the servant asked next. An icy glare from the corners of Faye’s eyes pierced through her.

“What sort of waves can a freshman who just entered university possibly cause? Since that lunatic likes her, I’ll take it as granting her final wish. She’s been my mother for years, after all. As for Elise Sinclair, she’s just a dumb b*tch who doesn’t want money; she even talked about the precious relationship between a mother and daughter—how ridiculous! There aren’t many idiots like her left in this world.” After saying that, she left the spot, but Bertha was standing by the door and had heard everything she just said. Only then did it hit her that she seemed to have the wrong idea about Elise.

Still, the expression on her face was normal, and there were no changes. “Yoyo, where have you been all these years? They all told me that you were dead. All of them said the same thing, but only I know that you’re not dead and you must be alive. And now, I finally see you again.” Filled with excitement, Jeanie wiped her tears as she spoke. However, Elise’s feelings toward her were very complicated because when they met for the first time, her eyes were brimming with maternal love for her. Not only did it touch her, it was also unforgettable. That was why she willingly accepted Faye’s request.

And now, Jeanie’s words had moved her. People say that the greatest emotion in the world was maternal love, and she fully experienced it from Jeanie. “Jeanie, are you alright?” Looking at Bertha, Jeanie rushed into her arms. “Mom!” Patting her back gently, Bertha cried, “Oh, my dear Jeanie! I waited far too long for you to call me Mom again.” Unexpectedly, Jeanie released her slowly, and the look on her face was entirely normal without a single trace of lunacy. Then, she turned to Elise with deep emotions hidden behind her eyes as she said to Bertha, “Mom, I’m fine! I’m well and I didn’t lose my mind!”

Bertha gawked at her in bewilderment. “But… you…” “Mom, calm down and listen to me,” Jeanie said, turning to look at Elise next to her before standing up. Looking at her carefully, she continued, “I’m sorry. I think the things I say may be a little presumptuous, but when I first saw you, I really thought that you looked so much like my mother when she was young. That’s why I mistook you for my daughter, Yoona.” Upon hearing that, the situation became clear to Elise.

Since she had no curiosity about the family affairs of others, she merely nodded slightly and said, “That’s okay. If you have something to say to each other, I’ll be going first, then.” “Hang on!” Jeanie stopped her. “Elise, may I call you by your name like this?” “Sure, of course,” Elise replied. “I know that you’re not the same kind of person as Faye,” Jeanie said. “You’re a good kid, and that’s why I didn’t hide anything from you earlier. I don’t know the reason Faye got you here, but I can tell you clearly that she’s not a good person, so please don’t have too many interactions with her.”

“I know exactly how much evil that little fox had done behind our backs, and even what she’s planning! It’s true that you can’t make somebody else’s child your own. After all these years, we’ve just raised an ingrate!” Bertha said furiously, whereupon Jeanie’s face turned serious. “If she was merely coveting material gains, I can turn a blind eye to the things she’s doing. However, according to my investigations while pretending to be a lunatic, she might be involved with Austin and Trevor’s accident…” The moment the words left her lips, the atmosphere in the air changed; Elise’s eyes turned solemn, and Bertha was so shocked that she was speechless.

“That b*tch… They’re her father and brother. How could she bring herself to do that! She’s heartless!” “She is heartless, as well as an a*shole!” Jeanie added. “She’s only willing to give up when Austin and Trevor are lying in the hospital beds now, completely incapable of moving! And now, I’m worried that she’ll lay her hands on us, too. So, we have no other choice now but to ask you for help, Elise,” she said, then she went down on her knees with a loud thud. “Elise, I’m begging you. Please help us…” Hurriedly, Elise lunged forward to help her up. “Mrs. Anderson, what are you doing?

 

Please get up.” “I’m not getting up if you don’t agree,” Jeanie said instead. “We can talk about this properly! It’s very stressful for me if you’re acting like this!” Lifting her head, Jeanie looked at her. “Elise, I don’t have any other request. I would just like you to take care of my mother-in-law so that she won’t be harmed. There’s no one I can entrust her to now; I just hope that you can take care of her for me.” As Bertha listened to everything she said, tears flowed down her eyes as she sobbed. “Jeanie, what are you doing? I don’t have many years left in this life! Furthermore, she doesn’t have the guts to do anything to me now.”
