Chapter 013 You Are So Ugly That You Hurt My Eyes

When Owen rushed to the apartment, Eliza was kneeling on the ground,

covering her face as she cried.

“Eliza.”

When Eliza saw that Owen had come, it was as if she had seen her savior. She immediately stretched out her arms and threw herself into his arms. “Owen, help me!” Seeing the red mark on Eliza’s left face, Owen immediately became cold. His face was full of displeasure as he looked at Polly Moore. “Mom, why didn’t you tell me before you came?” Even though the eldest daughter of the Moore family, Lady Polly, was sitting in a wheelchair, her imposing manner was not the least bit inferior. She had the

aura of a superior. Her long and narrow eyes were the same as Owen’s, and her tone of speech now was extremely cold. “Did you tell me when you divorced? Did you tell me about hiding a woman in

this apartment?” Polly was wearing an elegant dress with a thin blanket on her lap. The

embroidery was very beautiful and exquisite, handmade by Hailey. The shawl on her body was also a gift by Hailey. When Polly raised her hand, Winnie, who stood behind her, immediately understood what she wanted and lit a cigarette for her. “Eliza is not in good health. Don’t smoke in front of her.” Owen frowned.

“Is that so?” Polly puffed out a mouthful of smoke and glanced at the coffee table. “If she can drink coffee with stomach cancer. I don’t see how her health is bad. But Hailey has a low blood sugar level. I haven’t seen you caring for her.”

Hailey again.

Owen’s eyes were deep and serene when he replied coldly, “Hailey and I are

already divorced. There is no point in mentioning her.” Polly looked at his son’s cold eyes, and the corners of her lips raised into a sneer. “Look at how heartless you are. You are just like your father. If I had

known that after going through so much trouble, I would have given birth to another scum, I wouldn’t have had you.”

At the mention of his father, Owen pursed his thin lips, and his expression became colder. “If you don’t want to talk about Hailey, let’s talk about the woman beside you.” Polly took a puff and looked at the woman who was crying in Owen’s arms with a face full of disgust. “Enough! Don’t play pretend in front of me. You learned how to seduce men from your slutty aunt! Weren’t you just bickering with me just now? Why are you pretending to be pitiful now? Waiting for your man to stand up for you? Don’t forget, he is my son.” Hearing that, Eliza bit her lips. Her heart was filled with hatred, but she did not dare to show it at all. However, her eyes were hazy with tears. She sadly slid down from Owen’s arms and knelt down to beg Polly. “Aunt Polly, I know that you hate me because of the conflict between you and my aunt, but my aunt and Uncle Alan were really in love back then, just like me and Owen. We have loved each other for so many years. If it weren’t for the incident that happened to our family, and you… tried to stop us, I wouldn’t have gone abroad, let alone broken up with Owen. We would probably be married, and you might even have a grandson by now…” “Heh, what have you been dreaming about?” Polly could not listen any longer, so she interrupted Eliza impolitely. “Let me tell you, even if all the women in this world are dead and my son grows old alone, I won’t let him marry you. Do you understand?”

This damned old witch! Eliza gritted her teeth and wished she could go up and flip her wheelchair. Back then, if it hadn’t been for Polly’s schemes, the Browns wouldn’t have gone bankrupt, and she wouldn’t have suffered so much overseas! It was all Polly’s fault. How Eliza wished she could skin Polly and feed her to

the dogs! Just then, Owen reached out to pull Eliza up and stood in front of her. He met his mother’s cold gaze. “Mom, I can make the decision for my own marriage, so you don’t have to worry. Jose, send Madam home.” Standing at the side, Jose tried to lower his sense of presence, braced himself,

and went forward to tell Polly to leave. “Oh, my son is all grown up now. He’s even daring to chase his own mother away. How impressive.”

Polly clapped her hands and sneered, “Son, back then, your father betrayed me and caused me to lose my pair of legs. If you dare to marry her, on the day of your wedding, I will give you a huge gift as your mother. If you don’t believe me, try me.” Owen sensed his mother’s determined attitude as she left and slowly clenched his fists. His finger bones creaked, and he slammed the wall, causing a tremble on the wall.

Eliza was shocked. “Owen…”
