The Triplets My Ex Never Knew About novel Chapter 247

Chapter 247: Chapter 247: Mommy, We Call This Making Use of Local Resources

"How is it none of my business? For raising such an ill-mannered son, Estelle Lockwood deserves to die—"

"Then how are you any better?"

From the onlookers’ perspective, ’Christian’ was composed and dignified, standing firm under the pressure.

"Mommy said that good manners are for people who have them. When I meet someone like you, who uses their age as an excuse to be disrespectful, why should I treat you with any respect?"

Zachery wasn’t stupid; some things were more effective when said by a child.

So, ’Christian’ continued:

"The first time, you ’invited’ me to the York family’s home as a guest, you threatened me repeatedly, saying that Aunt Thea York would be my father’s new wife, and that I should start sucking up to her now so she might give me a scrap of food to eat later."

"After that, my daddy warned the York family. You said it was all in your head, a mistake, and that it would never happen again. So, a moment ago, Mrs. York, what did you want with us?"

Zachery feigned helplessness. "It was the same old story—Aunt York is going to marry Daddy, and Daddy’s most beloved son will be Aunt York’s child, and we useless burdens should just get lost."

"Mrs. York, are you slow or just forgetful? How can you forget everything you’ve said?"

Mrs. York: "..."

’Last time? How dare this little bastard bring up last time!!’

Christian Sloan had always had the image of a well-behaved and obedient child in everyone’s mind, so someone immediately spoke up.

"What do you mean, slow or forgetful? She’s just plain evil! She was already warned once by Mr. Sloan, and she’s still scheming to put her daughter in Estelle’s place."

"Exactly. She was the mistress, and now she wants her daughter to be one too. Oh, and I heard this beauty salon used to belong to the original Mrs. York. She left it to her own daughter, Stella York, but now this mistress and her illegitimate daughter are the ones showing it off. Tsk, tsk."

Mrs. York was fuming, her mind buzzing. "You... you people... Do any of you know right from wrong?! This little bastard clearly hit me! And you’re siding with him!"

"Yes, my brother did hit you, but like we’ve been saying, he’s only five years old. How much could it possibly hurt?"

The three little ones stood united against a common enemy. Mia asked, "Besides, didn’t my brother hit you because you provoked him?"

Mia could lie without batting an eye. No—this wasn’t really a lie.

After all, Mrs. York really had said those things.

"You figured that we little bastards could never win against you, telling us to watch our backs. You even said that after Aunt York takes over, your ’kind’ self would give us a few tens of thousands for living expenses to make us sever all ties with the Sloan Family."

Everyone looked at Mrs. York with disgust!

’How could she say something like that!’

Mia pressed on, "You said my mommy grew up in the countryside and was abandoned by the Lockwood Family when she was little, so her methods could never compare to yours. You said you already used the same tricks to drive away the original wife, and it wouldn’t be hard to drive away another one. Even though Mia doesn’t really understand what that means, I know it’s definitely not something good."

The onlookers: "..."

Everyone was stunned.

’How could she say that to a child? Is Mrs. York actually proud of being the mistress?!’

’The first original wife was driven away... and who’s the second one she’s going after? It has to be Estelle Lockwood!’

Mrs. York: "???"

’She had said she wanted to kick these three little bastards out of the Sloan Family, but... but when had she ever said that last part!’

’This Mia Lockwood was spouting utter nonsense!’

"Stop your nonsense!!"
