Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed novel Chapter 153

The old lady watched his retreating back and exploded in anger, "You ungrateful wretch! It's that siren's fault, leading you astray, defying your own parents! I can't get a word in edgewise with you anymore! Fine, leave! Go far away and take that siren and her little demons with you, and never call me mother again!"

Madge's defiance was a slap in the face for her.

At that moment, the old lady's disdain for her daughter-in-law, Madge, reached its peak, and even Norris, her son, wasn't spared from her bitterness.

Of all the people in the world, why choose this one!

All of them, disobedient and ungrateful!

...

On the way home, Norris was silent.

Seeing this, Madge gently took his hand.

Norris looked at her and smiled, signaling he was okay.

He had gotten used to his mother's favoritism over the years, and this wasn't the first time they had left on bad terms.

He used to endure it, but when it came to Roseanne, even Norris' patience had its limits against such slander.

Arriving home, Madge started to head to the kitchen to cook but was stopped by Roseanne.

"Mom, let me do it."

"You?"

Back at home, Roseanne never lifted a finger in the kitchen; it was always Norris who cooked and served her.

"Yeah, today you'll get a taste of my cooking."

"Don't end up burning the kitchen down," Norris joked, his mood lightening despite the earlier tension.

Roseanne, indignant, retorted, "Am I really that bad?!"

Both nodded in unison.

Roseanne was speechless.
