Fled With CEO's Twin Babies novel (Mia and Joe) novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108 The Arrival of Mrs. 

Swan 

Wendy was momentarily at a loss for words and quickly tried to recover, saying, “I just feel like those people are showing a lack of respect for our engagement banquet…” 

Joe didn’t comment, and soon, someone came up to engage in conversation, cutting their dialogue short. 

Wendy’s expression grew more somber. As she lifted her eyes, she noticed someone not far away discreetly greeting her. 

It was her mother. 

Wendy was taken aback, hastily surveying the surroundings. She quickly pulled the person into a storeroom and whispered, “Why are you here?” 

On her records, both her parents had been shown as working abroad, unable to return. She certainly couldn’t let Joe or 

Charlotte see her mother’s presence. 

Observing Wendy elegantly dressed in luxury attire, Mrs. Swan curled her lip and remarked, “Today is the day of my daughter’s engagement. Can’t I come and see what’s going 

on?” 

Hearing her words, Wendy sneered. “Are you sure you’re here now to talk about family bonds?” 

Caught red-handed, her mother grinned wryly, mimicking the action of counting money, “Well, I thought since you’re getting engaged, there should be a dowry, right? As your mom, shouldn’t I get a little share?” 

Seeing the expression on her mother’s face, Wendy couldn’t 

help but wish she could slap her. 

She had gone to great lengths to secure her place in the Smith family, and just as she was getting her footing, her mother had to stir up trouble. 

As she was about to refuse, a sudden memory of her mother’s words from that day surfaced. She said, “I can give you some money, but didn’t you mention earlier that you had a way to 

deal with Charlotte?” 

Her mother immediately caught on, letting out a sly chuckle, “I knew you’d come to me for help…” 

With that, she once again mimicked the money-counting gesture. 

Suppressing her internal repulsion, Wendy handed over a 

bank card, “Don’t proactively come looking for me. If you need something, just call me.” 

Taking the bank card, Mrs. Swan left with a cheerful smile. 

Before leaving, she said to Wendy, “I’ll take care of this thing. 

Don’t worry. Get ready to hear some good news.”” 

Watching her mother’s departure, Wendy clenched her hand 

into a fist in silence. 

She couldn’t be blamed. She would have never reached 

this point if Joe hadn’t started showing more concern for 

Charlotte. 

Blame could only fall on Charlotte herself. 

As Joe passed a certain corner inside the banquet hall, he suddenly caught snippets of a conversation from within. 

“Who would’ve thought, Mia… I mean, Charlotte has two 

children of this age? Didn’t she divorce Mr. Smith five years 

ago? Where did the kids come from?” 

“You know what? They were having a wild time, especially 

considering they couldn’t even get an abortion… We don’t 

even know if those two kids have the same father.”
