Ver. As soon as Austin, left, his mom started talking, calling out to Vera
Courtney looked at her with a frown. She knew Austin’s mom was doing it on
it on purpose.
“Oh dear, look at my big mouth. I called the wrong name again,” Austin’s mom muttered to herself, sitting by the bed. “Courney, how have the last lve years been for you over there?”
Courtney remained silent, not responding.
Austin’s mom seemed a bit displeased. “Why are you acting like a mute suddenly? You didn’t talk much befo
much before either”
Austin’s mom quietly complained. “Your mom used to look down on Austin, but now he’s the youngest chief physician at the hospital, young and promising. He’s going to be the hospital director in the future”
Talking about Austin made his mom’s eyes light up with pride.

Courtney frowned and picked up her phone. “I’m not asking him to buy a house for me; it was already my family’s house. I’m just asking him to return what he owes me. Then, I’ll get a divorce.
Courtney played the recording on her phone for Austin’s mom, whose face darkened. She fromed at Courtney, her words cutting “It’s laughable, you want ‘your house back? What do you mean your house? You’re my daughter–in–law, my son’s wife. If you leave, it still becomes my son’s house. That’s what the law says”
Courtney took a deep breath, feeling a pressure in her chest, unable to move up or down.
“You still want to divorce my son? Don’t think I don’t know what you’ve been up to in these past five years. My son doesn’t care, but you want a divorce! Fine, but you’ll leave with noting,” Austin’s mom said proudly.
Courtney looked at Austin in disbelief, shocked that she could say such things.
“I’m telling you
I don’t even want to acknowledge you as my daughter–in–law, I only recognize Vera. She’s my granddaughter’s mom,” said Jessica
Courtney was so angry that she was shaking. She dowly closed her eyes, out of sight, out of mind.
Courtney remembered five years ago when Austin successfully proposed and both families met. Austin’s mom didn’t have the same attitude back. then.
At that time, she kept saying how her son was lucky to be with Courtney and even asked Courtney’s parents to support him more in Hensburg
Aumun i mogen was extremely enthuuastic back then, almost frightening
now, this seemed to be the trust reflection of her character.
Do you still think you’re some spoiled princess” Austin’s mom stood up, looking at Courtney. “I heard that as soon as you got back, you got Phoebe’s mom into trouble with the police? Are you trying to leave Phoebe without a mom?”
“How can you be so mean?” Austin’s mom scolded.

“You totally deserve to be lying here. You were cheating on my son abroad, lunging out with hall those shady people. You’re shameless! Women like you should just leave pennuleys. How dare you come back to mess with my son, trying to make him divorce Vera, and turning my granddaughter into an illegitimate child! How can you be so spiteful?” Austin’s mount pointed at Courtney, yelling.
“And you have the nerve to ask for your house back, and for relocation money? You’ve brought disgrace to all women” Austin’s mom was a perfect portrayal of a vulgar small–town person
Courtney looked at her and smiled. She thought, It was genuinely amusing Like mother, like son. Their family is rotten to the core
Courtney was just too naive before to see their truly nasty nature.
“Back then, when you asked my dad to arrange a house and a job for your son, you weren’t like this. When you asked our family to contribute extra money to buy a house and remodel it, you weren’t like this. I didn’t ask for any money from you and used my own to support your daughter. When we bought a house for you back in our hometown, you weren’t this way either Courtney was absolutely furious, typing quickly as she challenged the woman in front of her about whether she even had a conscience.
What do you mean by that? Wasn’t it because you agreed since my son is so outstanding!” Austin’s mom retorted, feeling embarrassed and angry. and tried to grab Courtney’s phone.
“Now I understand why Austin is so shameless, he gets it from his mom, huh?” At the doorway, a very elegant woman in a stylish dress held a handbag and spoke sarcastically
The woman had a strong presence, clearly a lady from a wealthy family,
“Who are you!” Austin’s mom asked angrily.
Tm Courtney’s aunt,” the woman said in a steady, low voice as she walked up to Austin’s mom. “Do you think there’s no one supporting our Courtney anymore? Is that why you dare to bully her?”
