Chapter 200
“Stop pretending!” Brittany thought Christina was being hypocritical. Paisley is now a well–known screenwriter and the ex–wife of Dominick. You’ve got a powerful daughter now. Why do you still need me?”
Christina lovingly pulled Brittany into her arms. “Brittany, no matter what happens, you will always be my daughter. I won’t abandon you.”
“So, are you letting me stay here! Is this even a place for people to live?” Brittany looked around at the old house in disdain, worried that cockroaches might crawl out from the walls and bite her while she slept.
Christina fel helpless too, Gregory was simply cold–blooded
He’d kicked Brittany out without hesitation, and after that, he had also reclaimed the secondary credit card he’d given Brittany.
For years. Brittany had lived like a princess. When she ran out of money, she’d just ask Gregory for more, or spend on his credit card. She never saved up any money.
The small web dramas and gigs she’d done didn’t earn much either. She spent money extravagantly, and in the end, had nothing left.
Christina’s situation wasn’t much better. In the Sullivan family, she had lived hand–to–mouth. However, she was smarter than that. She’d invested most of her money in gold and silver jewelry, hoping to keep them as dowries for Brittany in the future.
Neither of them had ever expected things to tum out this way. Now, out of desperation, Christina had to bring Brittany back to the old house left by her parents before she got married.
“Britany, just hang in there. Once I sell the jewelry, we can get you a better place to live. For now, Christina could only comfort Brittany cautiously. Once she calmed down, Brittany realized that without the Sullivan family’s support, the only person she could rely on was Christina, who hadn’t abandoned her. So, she cried and threw herself into Christina’s arms, “Mom, I’m so miserable, everyone online is criticizing me”
“Don’t
attention to those things online. It’ll be okay, I’m here for you”
“Mom, do you think I have no future?” The worse things got for her, the more Christina would feel sorry for her. She wanted Christina to feel sorry
for her
Christina immediately denied. “Of course not. I’ll help you, don’t worry. No one can bully you!”
While speaking
#Christina glanced at Brittany’s phone screen, at Nion’s Instagram profile, her eyes flashing coldly.
“Achoo!” While Paisley was focused on rewriting the script, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine.
“You’re not catching a cold, are you? Lucy placed a cup of coffee next to Paisley. “Maybe you should skip the coffee and have some herbal tea
Paisley smiled slightly. Sometimes, she felt like Lucy was m more health–conscious than she was. Tm fine, just my nose
e got a bit itchy”
Lucy mischievously looked at her. “Do you think Dominick’s still thinking about getting back together with you?” Honestly, ignoring Dominick’s character, his physique and appearance weren’t bad at all. Paisley really had a hot ex–husband.
Paisley shot Lucy an annoyed look. She suddenly remembered that it was the weekend, and Serena wasn’t going to kindergarten today. She had promised that she would take her out to play. But because of the tight schedule with the crew, she had to cancel.
When she left this morning, Serena had been upset, pouting so much that it seemed like she could hang a boule of oil on her lips. Paisley wondered if she was still upset nOW
Thinking of this, Paisley fell into deep gullt. Little did she know, Serena was having a blast at that moment.
“Max, higher, higher!”
