Chapter 495: Bad Luck
‘Someone is crying?’
Riya looked at the construction site and blinked her eyes. To be honest, when she heard cries, the first thing that she thought was that someone had an accident in the construction site.
There was safety regulation, but some people just didn’t know how to follow it properly and ended up injured. This happened not only in the current time but also before.
After hesitating for a moment, Riya decided to take a look.
Anyway, it would not waste too much of her time.
But after Riya came to the scene, she was silent because she saw a familiar woman crying while sitting on the ground.
Mrs. Thompson.
Her mother.
Her feet that was about to step forward was retracted once again.
If it was anyone else, even if it was a stranger, Riya would be more willing to step forward. But seeing her mother, whom she had not seen for a long time, Riya didn’t want to.
‘My luck is really bad.’
Even though Riya has always known that both her father and mother were ini this city base, Riya rarely walked around the base. After all, if she had no business, why would she run around?
Riya basically spent her time either in her room where she paid a visit to her world or heading into the crack.
Her life is surprisingly simple.
But when she came out to check the walls to make the formation… she ended up seeing Mrs. Thompson again, which was very annoying.
At this moment, Mrs. Thompson was wailing loudly.
To be honest, Mrs. Thompson’s appearance has become completely different after one year in City A Base. Previously, she still looked somewhat like a rich lady who was a bit dirty because she was running away.
But right now, it was really hard to connect her current appearance with that identity.
After a year of hard work because if she didn’t, she would not be able to survive, Mrs. Thompson’s appearance had become very haggard. Not only that, her clothes were dirty and half patched.
It could be seen that for the sake of eating, she chose not to repair her clothing.
This made her look even more miserable.
Riya could guess that Mrs. Thompson should have been living a hard life in the past year. But this was not her business in the slightest bit.
Mrs. Thompson was crying.
“Why are you cutting off my wages? I have been doing all the work properly this time and didn’t make any mistake! You just want me to die….” Mrs. Thompson was complaining while wailing out loudly.
There were some people who glanced in her direction but most of them had no intention of stepping forward.
Because they all have their own families and their own difficulties. To pick this kind of work, they were clearly at the very bottom without much ability. If they had some kind of ability, they would be able to take other tasks from City A Base.
“I’m not your daughter.” Riya looked at Mrs. Thompson coldly and then walked around Mrs. Thompson.
If it was not because she didn’t want to make a fuss in the crowd, she would have long used her magic and disappear.
Wait, why didn’t she just disappear now?
“You’re my daughter! Do you dare to do DNA test? You’re such an unfilial daughter for not taking care of me for so many years! Look at you dressing so well and doing well but you completely forgot about your mother…”
Mrs. Thompson had already started crying and complaining once again.
She saw Riya was dressed up well and felt really jealous in her heart. Because she knew that Riya should be living well now while she herself was not doing well and had to suffer. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
This is unacceptable for Mrs. Thompson.
No!
She has to drag Riya.
“There’s already severance letter that you gave to me, Mrs. Thompson,” Riya said slowly and then sneered. “Besides, I have different surname from you. Did you forget that, Mrs. Thompson.”
Mrs. Thompson’s face changed and she gritted her teeth. “Olivia is my former mother in law’s surname…”
“You have divorce and you give up on the custody. What else should I add?” Riya asked slowly, her tone was getting colder and colder.
Hearing Riya’s words, Mrs. Thompson was getting anxious, but she didn’t want to give up. “No matter what, you’re my daughter and you have to support me!”
