Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1114

The wretched girl knew her place—this word was the best leverage.

"Dad!" Renee pleaded desperately. "Dad, I'll do anything you say... Please, save my mom!"

"Will you truly do anything I say?"

"Yes..."

"Then help me get what I want!"

Melvin dropped these words coldly and kicked her away before striding out of the room.

Enduring the pain in her knees, Renee struggled to stand up. She wiped away her tears, calming herself, and slowly made her way to the living room.

Linda had already set a table full of dishes to welcome her. "Pamela!"

Renee paused, forcing herself to put on a natural smile.

Approaching warmly, Linda reached out, but Renee lowered her head, avoiding her reluctantly.

It felt like a bucket of cold water poured over Linda's head. Her arms froze mid-air, and a trace of sadness flashed across her face. "Pamela..."

Renee took the initiative to speak first. "Auntie, I brought you a gift from Jangasas."

Linda's heart clenched tightly as joy and pain rushed in simultaneously. She was happy because Pamela had never voluntarily talked to her since her return, but she actually spoke up today.

She was sad that it was not the long-awaited "Mom" she hoped for but rather a distant "Auntie".

However, the fact that her daughter spoke up first was still a positive sign.
