Warning: My Mommy is A Savage novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55

Although Lily was more of a soft-spoken woman, she was very protective of Amelia. She continued to ask for mercy on her daughter’s behalf as she said, “Dad, I know Amelia made a huge mistake this time, but she wasn’t completely wrong. We’ve raised Charmine for so many years, so don’t we deserve something in return? She found such a huge diamond mine. Even if she doesn’t want to give it back to us, she should at least tell us about it, right?”,

“Exactly. She’s ungrateful. It’s like the old saying: ‘When one drinks water, one must remember the person who digs the well ?. Charmine not only forgot about the person who digs the well, but she even tried to kill the person!” exclaimed Amelia’s father, Felix Jordan-the second master of the Jordan family.

Just like that, the room was instantly filled with criticisms against Charmine.

Tiffany, not missing an opportunity to bring out her kind hearted persona, went forward and said, “This isn’t true! We can’t blame Charmine for not telling us since she never liked u s, but she must’ve told Grandpa.

“Grandpa had always treated her so well, and she had always respected Grandpa. It wouldn’t make sense for her to hide this fram Grandpa.” As Tiffany spoke, she poured some tea for Drake and asked gently, “Grandpa, am I right? Speak for Charmine and tell us that it’s so.”

Drake’s face stiffened. Speak up for Charmine? Speak what?

It was a great deal, and she had never told him anything. All these years, he was so concerned about her living alone in Africa that he had been asking Hobson to keep track of her. He was also worried that they would bully her when she got back, so no matter how everyone pestered him into distributing the fifteen percent shares, he saved it for Charmine.

Yet, Charmine…

Tiffany observed the change of his expression and knew she hit the bullseye. A glint of satisfaction passed through her eyes, but she stamped it down and asked in a concerned tone,“ Hmm? Grandpa… Charmine didn’t even tell you at all?”

Before Drake could even reply, Joey snapped, “How dare her! Although we had been quite strict on her all these years, all of us can see how well Dad treated her. How could she keep this from Dad? I can’t believe this!”

“She’s now a bird who can fly! Of course she’d fly away as far a s possible; she wouldn’t want to share her wealth or the diamond mine,” sneered Felix.

Encouraged by her family criticizing Charmine, Amelia looked at Drake with a disappointed look. “Grandpa, she doesn’t even care for you. Why are you still protecting her?”

“Although I’m immature, at least I’m your actual granddaughter who has your genes and blood. All these years,

I’ve spent my savings buying you gifts.

“And Charmine? What has she done? Are you really going to punish me for someone who doesn’t even treat you like ,family?”

Drake started recalling his memories of Amelia. Although she was arrogant, she had always respected him. On the other hand, Charmine…

In his old age, he no longer cared for materialism and wealth a s he looked only for display of filial affection from his grandchildren. In the past five years, he had heard nothing from Charmine. He had always treated her—the adopted daughter-as his actual granddaughter, but did she even see him as her grandfather?

“Who says I don’t treat Grandpa like family?”

A loud and clear voice was heard coming from the door, and everyone turned to see Charmine walking in with her chin up. She was dressed in a high-waist red dress that showed off her elegant long legs and thin waist. She was stunning, just as she always had been.

Tiffany began to wallow in jealousy. How could Charmine be s o beautiful? Tiffany would do anything to destroy that flawless face and those long legs!

Alas, she could only hold it in and slowly walked up to her.” Charmine, you came at the right time. Please explain to Grandpa. I believe you have your reasons to cut ties with Grandpa and why you didn’t tell him about the diamond mine. Grandpa had always favored you, so if you’re to explain everything, he’d forgive you.”

, Although she sounded like she was helping Charmine,

everyone in the house looked much angrier. Even Drake looked at Charmine with a disappointed and heart-wrenching gaze.

Charmine positioned herself at the center of the living room, facing the accusations and questioning looks. She eyed everyone sharply before she glared at both Tiffany and Amelia. “Are you two sure that I haven’t contacted Grandpa in the past five years?” sneered Charmine.

Charmine’s gaze was so sharp that it made Amelia feel uneasy. There was guilt in her eyes for a brief while before she shrugged it off and lifted her chin. “Are we wrong to think so? Grandpa knows better than anyone whether you contacted him or not!”

With that, Amelia ran to Drake and asked with an angry look,“ Grandpa, please tell us: Did Charmine ever call you or buy you any gift in the past five years? All the while, you were so worried about her and never stopped sending her money. She’s such an ungrateful being!”

As expected, Drake’s eyes darkened with disappointment after listening to Amelia. He was clearly disappointed at Charmine.
