Spoiled my CEO husband after Rebirth novel Chapter 48

Taking a deep breath, Gwenda turned away from the door, wanting to ignore her unexpected visitor.

But the doorbell kept ringing incessantly, followed by her phone, and the dual ringing gave Gwenda a massive headache.

Her grip tightening on her phone, Gwenda spun around and threw the door open, yelling angrily, "Are you done or not?"

Pauline, who was the mysterious visitor, was a tad shocked by her stepdaughter's attitude. But she quickly pulled on the face of a concerned parent and said, "Oh, did I disrupt your sleep, Gwenda? I tried to call you but you never answered, and I was afraid that you didn't want to see me, so..."

"So, why are you still here if you knew that I didn't want to see you?"

Gwenda interrupted her impatiently.

Pauline's smile became frozen. She did not expect Gwenda to be so disrespectful to her. "Gwenda, you have not come home for two months, I was worried about you..."

"There's nothing about me that's worth worrying over for you. I'm living just fine over here. Please go back."

With that, Gwenda made to close the door, but was stopped by Pauline.

"Gwenda, we're a family. Please don't sulk. I came here because I wanted to tell you something."

Gwenda stared at her stepmother, knowing that she would never give up until she had gotten what she wanted.

So, she took a deep breath and let go of the door. "Fine, come in."

No longer facing any resistance, the door fell open and nearly made Pauline fall. Forcing her anger down, Pauline straightened her clothes and walked into the apartment.

Gwenda went straight to the sofa in the living room and sat down, crossing her arms.
