Chapter 2409
Inside the coffee shop.
Madeline and Esther sat face-to-face.
Esther picked up the hot coffee that was just served, took a sip, and spoke first.
"Mrs. Whitman, you have three children, right? I heard that your only daughter was tortured to the point where she couldn't speak by a woman in a gang. She's still mute now. I wonder if it's true.”
The sudden mention of Lily, who got so frightened by Lana that she lost her courage to speak, made Madeline feel a little uncomfortable.
However, she still calmly raised her eyes and parted her lips lightly. "Mrs. Mendez, you can just say what you want to. We've already reached this point, and some things are already tacitly understood. There's no need to beat about the bush."
Esther pulled the corners of her red lips into a halfsmile. "I really don't understand what you mean when you say those words. I'm just curious if your daughter was ever scared into a mute.” Madeline could hear that Esther was hiding something in her sentence. She maintained a composed attitude and replied calmly, "Yes, my daughter can't speak yet."
“Tsk tsk.” Esther sighed. “How do you feel as a mother when you see your daughter being bullied like that by outsiders?"
Hearing this, Madeline seemed to gradually understand what Esther wanted to convey.
Madeline did not avoid Esther's question. She replied calmly, “No mother can stand idly by when their precious daughter is being bullied."
Madeline replied. At the same time, she also saw the look of satisfaction in Esther's eyes, but Madeline was not done. 1
“However, if my daughter is the one at fault, she deserves it even if she's taught a lesson."
