Chapter: 597
"Keep an eye on your daughter, Luna. I don't want a repeat of what happened at the birthday party."
Seeing the little one in tears, searching for her mother, could be heartbreaking.
With Luna as Shayla's mother, Norah was torn about whether Shayla was fortunate or not.
Sometimes, Norah could sense Luna's love for Shayla.
Luna reached out but failed to touch even the edge of Norah's clothing.
"You're being too cold, Norah. You weren't like this when you wanted to marry into the Carter family. Have you turned against us because you're now divorced? Is it somehow our fault that your marriage ended?"
Luna struggled to keep up her understanding behavior, but she pulled herself together just in time.
"Haha."
Norah chuckled as if she'd just heard the best joke. "When I married into the Carter family, it was all to fix your mistakes. And now you're talking about me turning against you guys? Could you advise me on how to handle your family without being accused of turning against you guys? Do you think I should just give you money and property?
Sorry, that's not happening."
The Wilsons must be dreaming if they thought that could happen!
Norah's harsh words cut Luna deeply, like a knife to the heart. If Luna hadn't been carrying Dooley's child back then, her family wouldn't have needed someone from outside to step in and help.
Luna's expressions changed a few times before she finally managed a gentle smile.
“Oh, sis, your words hurt our feelings. We really sees you as one of our own. If you ever feel lost or tired out there, just come on back.
I'll be like your closest sister and Mom and Dad will welcome you back with open arms."
Luna skillfully avoided getting tangled in the conversation.
“Shayla, let's say farewell to your Auntie Norah. We can visit her again."
Clutching her mother's hand, Shayla asked with innocence, “Are we coming back tomorrow? I really like Auntie Norah."
“There's no need to look for me tomorrow; I won't be here at the hospital."
While they were talking, Norah quickly walked by them, her voice fading away as she moved.
“Remember, the hospital needs to be quiet, please be mindful of that."
Luna felt frustrated as the figure in the white coat walked away down the hallway.
That damned Norah, always so pretentious because of her wealth. Luna cursed under her breath, pondering how she herself wouldn't feign such humility if it weren't for the Scott family and Norah's financial resources.
“Mommy, when will we visit Auntie again?"
