Chapter 1420
[ 602 words ]
She looked at Claire, hiding the resentment in her eyes, and forced a stiff smile. “Claire, please don’t take it to heart.”
“I was just fuming earlier. You see how disobedient Yolande and Seb are.”
“They completely fail to understand my painstaking efforts as a mother.”
Claire couldn’t be bothered to waste more breath on Tiffany. She just felt genuinely
sorry that Yolande and Seb had to deal with such a mother.
“It’s not just them who can’t understand it. I can’t understand you either.”
Claire’s tone was flat. “Having a mother like you is truly their blessing!”
With that, she grabbed Dane’s hand and walked away.
Tiffany was left standing there alone.
She pondered Claire’s parting words for a long moment before finally spitting in disgust.
Who was that little brat being sarcastic with?
Unfortunately, Claire was already gone. With Dane around, Tiffany didn’t dare chase after her to hurl insults.
She stomped her feet in frustration, then suddenly remembered what her children had said before storming off. A wave of dread washed over her.
Would they really go home and urge Owen to divorce her?
And what about that wretched Claire? Would she go back and urge Padgett to force Owen to dump her?
Tiffany had a sudden, terrible premonition that her life was about to get extremely difficult!
Dane led Claire back into the main house.
Ophelia was currently comforting Regina’s mother.
The elderly woman had just been screamed at by Tiffany and was now clutching her chest in distress.
Tiffany had really hit a nerve.
Regina stayed by her mother’s side, trying to console her. “Mom, I’m doing perfectly fine now. Stop thinking about all that.”
“How are you fine?” Regina’s mother thought of how her daughter and son-in-law’s marriage was a complete sham.
Her son-in-law was out there messing around with God knows how many little vixens. Was that supposed to be fine?
“You’re such a fool. I told you back then to find someone of equal
bel
status to marry but you just had to pick that bastard!
“It’s one thing that he’s incompetent, but he dares to fool around behind your back!”
Regina was speechless. “Mom, it’s not like he’s the only one fooling around. I’ve also been…”
“Shut your mouth!” Regina’s mother was even more furious hearing this.
“Our Quincy family is a family of scholars! If your father knew about your affairs outside, he’d die of a heart attack!”
Thinking of her father’s uncompromising nature, Regina sighed helplessly. “Then please don’t tell him.”
“Look, Larkin doesn’t mind what I do.
The two of us play our parts

perfectly in front of the elders and the younger generation. Isn’t that enough?”
“Besides, with all that fat on Larkin now, what’s there to like about him?”
“He’s getting old, and his performance in bed is…”
“Shut up!” Regina’s mother looked like she wanted to clamp her hand over her daughter’s mouth.
The of the Churchill family
heret
were sitting right there! If they this, wouldn’t they laugh h
daughter out of town?
Regina was unbelievable. Didn’t she care about the setting? How could she just blurt out anything?
“Mom, Ophelia already knows, so telling me to shut up is pointless.”
“Larkin and I have had an understanding for a long time. We both do our own thing, and honestly, it’s pretty great.”
“You might not be able to accept it, but a lot of married couples are like this nowadays.”
“We just don’t click physically, but we’re on the same page mentally.”
“Don’t worry, our money is all going to be left for our kids. It absolutely won’t fall into the hands of outsiders.”
Instead of dialing it back, Regina urged the old woman to relax.
Regina’s mother rolled her eyes so hard they almost got stuck.
Claire walked in just in time to hear this and nearly burst out laughing.
