Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1309

"Oh, it's nothing," Kaitlyn replied, lowering her head briefly before looking up with a soft smile. "Renee, I haven't been feeling very comfortable after my surgery, so I prefer not to be touched... Can you understand?"

"Mom?" Renee's eyes widened. "Where are you feeling uncomfortable? I can ask Lina and Zuko to help..."

"No need."

Kaitlyn grabbed her, and Renee was taken aback, noticing that her mother's hand didn't feel as hard as before.

Kaitlyn had always been sick, weak, and frail, making her hands feel like dry twigs. But now...

"Renee, I have something to tell you."

Renee refocused and looked at her mother attentively.

"What kind of person is Lena?"

"Why are you suddenly asking about this?"

"Just asking casually."

Renee pondered for a moment and replied softly, "Is this about the incident where she blocked you from entering the study and argued with you?

"Mom, you might have misunderstood her. She has a cold personality and prefers to keep her distance from strangers, but she has a good heart."

"Is that so?" Kaitlyn sneered. "Renee, you're still too young to see through people's hearts."

"Well—"

"The more someone is like that, the better they are at pretending. Have you heard the saying that a biting dog doesn't bark?"

Renee looked puzzled, not understanding why her mother was saying this.

"You shouldn't get too close to Lena!" Kaitlyn looked at her seriously. "And you have to get rid of her. Otherwise, you and Toph won't have an easy time!"

"Mom, what are you saying?" Renee couldn't help but jolt in surprise.

After saying that, Kaitlyn lowered her head, portraying the meek housewife she once was.

Despite her demeanor, Renee couldn't ignore the vicious glint in her eyes when discussing getting rid of Lena just now.
