Second Marriage novel Chapter 159

"Resist the disaster?" Belinda's look turned to be gloomy. "Lottie, how can you think of me like this? I didn't mean that. You also know that you are my daughter. How can I be willing to let you protect Chris from disasters?"

"Really?" The smile on Charlotte's lips was extremely bitter. Her hands under the table were tightly intertwined, and her fingertips went deep into her skin, but the pain in her heart was much more than that in her hands.

"I remember your original words clearly... You said that you couldn't have both daughters of the Wilson family destroyed. Your baby daughter, Christina, has always been the best dressed since she was a child, and she has taken the best courses. I'm also your daughter, but I'm different. What I have to do is to take care of her and give in to her. I think I can do all these as a sister. This is what I should do. But... I got divorced and went home. You didn't care for me at all, and forced me to marry to the Moore family instead of her. At that time, you knew that the person I was going to marry was disabled. You can't bear to let Christina marry an invalid, so you asked me to replace her."

Belinda's look began to become flustered, she explained, "It is not just business as usual. Don't you have a good life now? The company you work for is so big, and you also live in such a big house. You have money to drink coffee here. What are you not satisfied with?"

Charlotte wiped her tears, "Mom, if you had known the situation, would you not have let me marry?"

"Of course...Don't say anything about this. Anyway, you're doing well now! Isn't that all right? Why do you have to care about the past?"

Belinda became impatient, especially when she saw Charlotte's red eyes, she felt upset and could only say coldly, "Anyway, I'm here to tell you this today. Give me one hundred thousand dollars."

Charlotte didn't speak.

"I'm telling you, your sister has already learned for so long. If she doesn't continue to learn now, then her future will be ruined. You are her elder sister, and you should consider it for your sister!"

Charlotte looked at her firmly, and asked suddenly.

"Mother, am I really your biological daughter?"

After hearing it, Belinda stared suspiciously and looked at Charlotte in disbelief.

"How can you say such a thing? I raised you up, but you...doubt me!"

"If Christina and I are both your biological daughters, then why... You haven't treated me as well as you have treated her since I was a child. Mom, I am also an ordinary person, and I have feelings."

Belinda was so angry that she covered her chest. She gasped with a pale face, "Okay, my good daughter. You actually started to question me, your mother... OK, OK... You are arrogant now. Well, I, I'm leaving."

With that, Belinda got up and wanted to go outside, but she was breathing hard and fell back.

"Mom!" Charlotte was startled and quickly got up to support her.

Belinda pretended to push her weakly, "You, you bastard. Let me go, I want to leave here... You are grown up now. You have a family and want to abandon your old mother. I shouldn't stay in this world again..."

Belinda complained and even cried. The noise caused many people to watch and then began to whisper.

The waiter came over, "Madam, please keep quiet. May I know what happened? Is there anything we can help with?"

Charlotte knew that this was a high-end coffee shop. Belinda had a big impact on being such a mess here. When asked in public like this, Charlotte blushed immediately. She apologized embarrassingly, "Sorry, I took her away right away."

Then she held Belinda and wanted to go out, "Mom, I will take you out of here first."

"I will not go!"

Belinda sat down directly on the ground like a shrew, and scolded, "You all have abilities now. I have worked so hard to grow you up. That's how you rewarded me! Have you ever considered me as your mother?"

Belinda's style was strange in any place, let alone in this high-end coffee shop.

Charlotte felt embarrassed and didn't want her to keep losing face here, so she could only step forward to help her.

"I'll give you as much as you want, but you have to leave here with me first."

Hearing it, Belinda's eyes lit up, "Really?"

"Yes, get up first."

At this moment, Belinda didn't struggle any more. She left the cafe with Charlotte's support.

Charlotte could feel the contempt in the waiter's eyes when they left.

They stood on the crowded street, Charlotte looked calm, but Belinda was eager, "Lottie, are you really willing to pay? How much can you give me? It's better to give me more. Recently, my life is not so good. You..."

"Mother," Charlotte interrupted her and whispered, "What if I say I don't have money?"

Now she owed the company money. How could she have spare money to lend to Belinda?

When Belinda heard this, she frowned immediately and said coldly, "What do you mean? You just said that you can give me money in the coffee shop. Are you back on your words now?" After speaking, she noticed that her attitude was too aggressive, so she quickly changed her tone and said, "Lottie, I don't want to exploit you. When you were with Aldrich, Aldrich had no money, and I didn't ask you to borrow money, right? But now things are different. You live a rich life now. You can't live a good life on your own and let us suffer, right? Lottie, I only need one hundred thousand dollars. If you have a lot of money, you can give me one hundred and fifty thousand."

Charlotte, "...Just one hundred thousand dollars? One hundred fifty thousand is better?"

Belinda didn't understand the meaning of her words. She thought it wasn't much money to Charlotte, and she still had a smug look on her face.

"Yeah, isn't it not much? It's only a little bit for you. So, Lottie, if you think it is too little, you can give me a little bit more. Mom and Dad will appreciate you."

"Well..." Charlotte's smile and look were very bitter, "Yes, as long as I give you 100,000 or 150,000, your family will be grateful to me."

Belinda nodded vigorously, "Yes."

"But I don't have money. Mother, if I can, I would like to help you, but what if I don't have the money? What do you want me to do?"

At the end, Charlotte even roared out. Her sudden outbreak made Belinda's eyes widened in shock.

"Do you really think that I have a good life by marrying to the Moore family? Have you worried about me this month? When I went home, you didn't ask me whether I live well. Now when you meet me, you just asked me for money. Mom...I give you my life, OK?"

Belinda's eyes widened and she covered her chest in disbelief.

"Stop acting, I'm serious. Now I only have my life. If you think that my life is valuable, maybe... you can take it."
