Wendy twitched violently, and what Eva said hit the nail on the head.
"Shelly is just a dog beside me. There is no way for her to replace me."
"I'm just reminding you. Believe it or not, it's your business." With a sneer, Eva turned around and left without saying anything more. The idea of Essie was to let them fight each other and see how Elizabeth would deal with it.
Wendy was not in the mood to go to the night club now. She wanted to ask Elizabeth. However, Elizabeth was still playing mahjong with several rich ladies outside, and only Valery was at home. When she heard that Eva tried to alienate her mother from Wendy, she decided to teach Eva a lesson.
But this time, she didn't start with Eva. Instead, she went to the Tang dessert shop to find Percy, Eva's mother.
It was a mother's fault not to teach her daughter well. She wanted Percy to teach her daughter well in case she would make trouble again.
In the evening, there were not many people in the coffee shop. Percy was about to ask everyone to close the door and go home. Seeing Valery come in, she thought she was a guest, so she went up to greet her.
"Are you Eva's mother?"
Percy was slightly stunned and looked at her in confusion. "You are..."
Valery forced a smile and looked at her coldly.
"I'm Vinton's sister. I'm here for you." Her tone did not show any respect to the elders. Instead, it was like that a lady was ordering the servants. In her eyes, the family of Eva was as vulgar and humble as the servants at home.
Percy didn't mind. She knew that Vinton was from a rich family, so it was normal for his sister to be a little arrogant.
"Hello, Miss. Do you want to eat something or..."
Before she could finish her words, Valery interrupted, "it's late. I won't beat around the bush." She restrained the fake smile at the corners of her mouth, "I'm here to let you know that my brother has a fiancee, and your daughter, Eva, is now a third party. She wants to separate my brother and my future sister-in-law. All of us are very indignant at her immoral behavior, so I hope you can teach your daughter well and let her leave my brother as soon as possible. Don't pester him anymore. At the same time, I also want you to know that our family has always been pursuing a match of equal social rank. Your status is too low. It's impossible for our Xu family to be your relatives by marriage. "
A spasm swept over Percy's body and touched her heart. Her face suddenly turned pale, the corners of her mouth trembling slightly, and her hands trembling slightly too.
"Miss, I have never asked about Eva. I will ask her about it later."
"Don't bother. Ask her to leave my brother right now. She doesn't deserve..." Before Valery could finish her words, an angry voice suddenly sounded from the door of the dessert shop, like a bomb exploding, "Valery, get out of here right now, or I'll break your arm!"
Valery turned around and couldn't help shivering when she saw Eva rushing in aggressively. She took two steps back and said, "Eva, it seems that your mother hasn't known that you are a mistress yet?"
Eva clenched her fists and said, "if you don't get out, I'll disfigure you!"
"If you dare to hurt me, my brother won't forgive you." Although Valery was scared, she still plucked up the courage to confront her.
"Eva, let me tell you. My brother likes you just because he is confused for a while. He will soon wake up and make the right choice. By that time, it will be too cruel for you. " She said word by word and turned to look at Percy with an intriguing expression. "Aunt, you don't want your daughter to end up with regret and grief, do you?"
Percy's face was as pale as a piece of paper. A drop of tear slid silently down her cheek and stopped at the corner of her mouth.
Eva was scalded by her mother's tears, and a wave of anger rushed to her forehead. She didn't care what others thought of her or said about her, but she would never allow anyone to hurt her mother.
She kicked at Valery, and Valery fell to the ground with her face looking up at the sky.
"You..." Her face turned green and it took her a long time to recover.
"Get out of here, or I'll kick you again." Eva stared at her with her hands akimbo.
"I won't come back again. I believe you can make the right decision for your daughter." Valery stood up and walked out in a noble manner, holding her head high. When she arrived at the door, she suddenly stopped. She turned around and looked at Percy with an unfathomable expression. "I forgot to say that my parents hate Eva very much and don't want to marry a poor family. So, please have a little self-knowledge. Don't make our family difficult."
As if Percy had been hit by a heavy stick, a burst of trembling came from her thin shoulder to her fingers. The past seemed to be fresh in front of her. There had been someone who had said the same words to her, making her painful.
Valery smiled coldly and complacently. She raised her noble head again and walked out.
It was raining outside, and the bean sized raindrops fell on the window, making it an annoying mess.
Feeling guilty, Eva held her tearful mother in her arms and said, "Mom, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. It's all my fault."
