All Too Late

Chapter 243 Know Her The Best

Covering her face, Melanie looked in agony at Geraldine. “Mom…”

“You’ve always been so closefisted whenever I brought you out to socialize,” Geraldine said coldly. “The reason is obvious, isn’t it? You’re insecure and scared people would blame you. That’s why you always act so timid, wanting to hint to people that I have been abusing you to avert their attention. Do you think I’m blind?”

Melanie was astounded. So she knew all along?

“I didn’t bother with you as I could understand how you felt,” Geraldine remarked indifferently. “Besides, you’re also Nicholas’ mother. He will also be looked down on if others dissed his mother.”

Melanie pursed her lips at that.

“Only someone who has nothing like you would bother about someone being a divorcée or not,” Geraldine criticized. “Who cares if it’s her first marriage or not? It doesn’t matter as long as she’s from a higher social status. If Nicholas married Kathleen, he would be able to obtain her help to climb up the social status ladder. This is the most important when compared to those unrealistic things.”

Melanie lowered her head.

“However, everything is ruined because of your shortsightedness.” Geraldine laughed coldly. “Kathleen is smart. She’ll definitely try her best to cause trouble for you since you provoked her. Do you know how much trouble you’re going to cause Nicholas?”

Upon hearing that, Melanie started to sob.

“Since you’ve already portrayed me as an evil mother-in-law from an elite family, I won’t go easy on you,” Geraldine stated frostily. “From now onward, I forbid you from going out and engaging in any form of socialization. You need to learn manners first!”

Melanie stared at Geraldine in shock. Did she just forbid me from going out?

With a snort, Geraldine marched out of the room. “You should know if I asked my son to divorce you, I’m sure he would do it without a second thought.”

Melanie turned pale as she ducked her head even lower, following Geraldine out of the room.
