His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 713

"Oh?" Laura exclaimed. Then she asked again with a smile, "Where is your child's father?'

When they heard Laura's offensive question, both Anthony and Sheryl's faces hardened. With knitted brows, Anthony said to Laura in an upset voice, "What's wrong with you? How could you ask her such a question?"

"What's up?" Laura innocently asked. "Can't I ask her about the child's father?" Laura smiled ironically and said to Anthony bitterly, "I am your mother. Since you have already decided on your own to be with this woman, am I not allowed to know what kind of person she is and why she wants to be with you?"

She stared at Anthony and continued, "What's more, now that she agrees to be with you, she should already prepare herself to meet such kind of question from other people one day. She should also not mind it, right?"

Then she turned to Sheryl's direction and asked her, "Sheryl, you won't mind, will you?"

"No, Aunt Laura, I don't mind," Sheryl replied helplessly. Sheryl knew inside that Laura was deliberately provoking her. After all, Laura didn't really want her to be with Anthony. Although on the surface Laura came here to see her, the fact was, Laura merely wanted to humiliate her to the point that she would give up on Anthony.

As everyone knew, she was a single mother. How could she be worthy of Anthony?

"Mom..." Anthony furrowed his brows. He didn't mind Laura's previous questions. However, this time her question was very humiliating. Even a fool would understand her ulterior motive. He narrowed his eyes and said, "I don't think it's necessary for you to ask such question. I've already told you everything you want to know before. What do you really want to imply by asking this?"

"Anthony!" Laura's face went red and her voice trembled. She glanced grimly at Anthony and said indignantly, "If you still want me to allow your relationship with Sheryl, you better shut up your mouth from now on."

"I..." Anthony wanted to say something. However, Sheryl stopped him, "Anthony, it's okay."

From the first time she saw Junia, Sheryl already knew that Laura would never agree to her relationship with Anthony. It was obviously not as easy as what Anthony said.

"Aunt Laura has the right to ask me about this thing. I am fine," Sheryl reassured Anthony in a calm voice. What Laura had asked was all from her past. She didn't consider her past disgraceful so she could tell her all about it.

She knew that Anthony was only worried that she might feel uncomfortable with Laura's question. However, Laura was right. She had to face such question sooner or later.

She would even feel completely strange if Laura didn't ask her about this matter.

"But..." Anthony frowned a little and still wanted to stop Laura from continuing her question. Laura smiled and interrupted Anthony's words, "See? Now that she has already agreed, you just sit there silently."

Anthony was left with no choice but to unwillingly sit in silence. He kept on glancing at Sheryl, checking if she already felt uncomfortable.

"Sheryl, please forgive me for speaking in an inconsiderate manner," Laura said to Sheryl. She heaved a sigh before she continued, "After all, Anthony is my son. Although you have been with Anthony for quite a long time, I still can't agree to your relationship that easy. Anthony has been trying to persuade me again and again so I promised him that I would see you. Originally, I have already decided not to accept you. You know, our family might not be as noble as the others but we are also an honorable family in the world of medicine. We can't just accept someone easily, let alone a single mother."
