Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed novel Chapter 363

After the altercation, Beverley just sat there, feeling like she was about to explode. Her husband had just given her a piece of his mind, and now her son was piling on. It felt like too much.

“You guys, really? It's all landing on me now? Who do you think I'm doing all this for? You don't get it, any of it!”

“Fine, leave then—everyone just leave—never come back—”

“My husband, he yells at me; my son, he's ungrateful; my grandkids, don't even get me started. Did I walk under a ladder in a past life or something? Why me?!”

Having vented, Beverley collapsed onto the couch, drained.

But there was still the matter at hand to deal with.

She took a deep breath and asked the butler to find Maisie's contact information.

Soon enough, she had a phone number.

Beverley took another deep breath and dialed…

“Yeah? Who's this?” Maisie was already on edge, having sent out all those messages without a peep of response.

“Mrs. Lee, hello, this is Beverley.”

Maisie's mood instantly shifted at the sound of Beverley's voice, her irritation and anxiety melting away.

“Oh—” Maisie's tone was suddenly aloof, “What can I do for you?”

Thinking there was no response to her messages? And yet, here was Beverley, calling her up.

Looks like the video worked after all!

“We need to talk,” Beverley cut to the chase.

Maisie glanced at her son, “Talk about what? Is there something we need to discuss?”

Beverley was fuming, “What's with the act? You stirred up all this trouble for what, money?”
