A Husband For Killer Mom-Chapter 230 - People Change

230 Ch. 230 People Change

The next day, a local maid knocked on Anxia’s door and told her that the house lady wanted to see her.

“I’ll be there in a few minutes.”

“Madam wants your presence now.”

Anxia rolled her eyes lazily, listening to the affirmation from the middle-aged man as if Anxia was an officer who had to fulfill orders from her boss immediately.

Anxia was not an employee of Loraine Shu but the woman’s daughter. But everyone here equated her to a confidant of that woman. Anxia didn’t blame them because it seemed her own mother also treated her like a mafia leader towards her underlings.

Really… why did she go here when it turned out that she was only being used by her own mother and harming her? In the end, Anxia came out of her room and followed the man to where her mother was.

Anxia had expected her mother to complain at length because she didn’t want to do her task last night. But Anxia still felt calm, and there was no guilt in her heart.

If anyone wants to be blamed, then the mother must be blamed. Anxia agreed to take on this mission because her mother gave her a mission to steal a crown from a museum in the center of this country’s city. But Anxia never agreed if she had to pave the way into her father-in-law’s house.

The other was her beloved... unbeloved mother, while the other was her father-in-law. She should weigh on her mother, but she chose Stanley’s side—it was an easy choice at this moment.

.....

Therefore Anxia wasn’t afraid of her mother’s nagging or tantrums, nor did she fear the woman threatening her again by using Lori. Her daughter’s protection was secured if Stanley had arrived in London and lived in Kensington.

Furthermore, Richard would wake up tomorrow, and no one would be able to harm her daughter. Because of that, Anxia could walk confidently as she felt she had nothing to lose.

Once inside her mother’s room, Loraine Shu looked at her with suppressed anger. But the next second, the woman forced a smile on her, bringing nothing but further confusion into Anxia’s head.

“Xiao Xia, what did you do last night? Getting Stanley out of his house is difficult, but you’re wasting this golden opportunity.”

Anxia snorted as if she didn’t believe it. “Two months ago, Stanley came to England and left his home. Why don’t you take advantage of the opportunity?”

“You stupid child. You have no idea. Before he left for England, he had called a colleague to look after his house while he was away. He had prepared everything before he left his house. And just yesterday, he left his house unprepared, but you threw this opportunity away.”

Hearing this made Anxia surprised, but she managed to hide her expression. She didn’t understand why Stanley was so protective of his house as if he was keeping something precious and afraid it might fall into the hands of strangers.

Shouldn’t Stanley have kept it in his other house? Why did Stanley even tighten the protection of his home?

Or is it just to trick the enemy? Anxia didn’t know at all, and she didn’t care.

“My dear beloved mother...” Anxia wanted to throw up for some reason when she called the elderly so intimately. “You know I love you very much, and it’s good to see you... living well. But my patience has a limit. I am Richard Calvin’s wife, and Stanley Calvin is my father-in-law. I will not remain silent if you hurt or have bad intentions toward them. They are my family!” Anxia stressed out when she stated that Calvin was her family.

“Family? You are my birth girl! You are the child I worked so hard to give birth to, yet you chose them over your mother?”

“Mother? Where were you when I needed you? Where were you when I was being tortured by the most horrible man in the world?” Anxia stepped forward toward her mother with dangerous and confident steps. “Don’t advise me on what it’s like to be a mother. I also have a child. And I totally understand what it’s like to be a mother. I will never make my daughter suffer and will save her from even the strongest enemy, even if I am only a small sheep. Even if it costs my life, I will stop at nothing to ensure my daughter’s safety, but you... you did nothing. Nothing!!”

“Xiao Xia...”

“If you were that worried about me, you should have reached me or found a way to let me know you were watching me. At least I will survive and not fall too deep into that world of darkness.”

“Xiao Xia, I...”

“The only person who managed to bring me out of the darkness,” Anxia continued without giving her mother a chance to continue her words. “It was Richard—my husband! And the people who give me parental love are Stanley and Meisya. I won’t let you hurt them, whether you are my birth mother or not.”

Anxia returned to her room when she realized that her mother had nothing to talk about. But her steps stopped when her mother spoke again.

“Okay, I won’t bother your family in England anymore. In exchange, I need you to give me information on Hawkeye.”

Anxia laughed sarcastically at her mother’s words. “Are you negotiating with me? With your own daughter?”

“You want me to treat you as your daughter? Why would I do it if you don’t treat me like your mother.” Please visit 𝒇𝙧𝐞ℯ𝒘e𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝐞𝑙. c𝐨m

Anxia almost couldn’t believe her mother’s words. Was this woman really her mother? Where is her gentle, full of warm and endless laughter mother?

“What happened to you? You’re not like the woman I’ve always remembered.”

“People can change, Xiao Xia. Aren’t you too? You are no longer a child filled with laughter and innocence who thinks the world is filled with rainbows and cupcakes. The years of suffering and what we have been through all this time made us who we are now. Isn’t that so?”

Gone was the forced-smile on Loraine’s face, replaced with a cold expression as if looking at Anxia as her enemy.

Did this woman no longer regard Anxia as her child? No matter how evil one’s heart was, one would not eat her own flesh and blood. Anxia herself, in the end, melted her heart and became very fond of her daughter, no matter how great the grudges and hatred filled her heart.

But, it seemed that it didn’t apply to Loraine Shu because her mother’s gaze at this time was the same as Anxia, who looked at Michelle and Richard for the first time—full of hatred and eager to take their lives.
