Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game

Tassach’s face turned icy. “What the hell are you talking about, mom?”

Mrs. Conduibh knew instantly that she misspoke. But, she thought, it’d be okay if she told him all about it after all this time. Because her own son wouldn’t turn against her just for some girl, would he?

“She would have gotten locked up a long time ago had I not dropped the lawsuit against her.”

Tassach looked thunderous as he clenched his fingers into a fist. “Don’t you think you were way out of line, mom?”

“How was I out of line?” demanded Mrs. Conduibh, “and how will that uneducated woman with inferior upbringing ever be good enough for you? She wanted to become the modern Cinderella and marry a prince, well then, I buried her under the cinder. But she got lucky, scoring herself Zachariah Chambers the moment you were out of her life. If you ask me, I think she was stringing both of you along, because how else could she have married into the Chambers family so quickly? Only a fool like you would fall for her innocent pretense. Do you know the kind of reputation she has with the upper class? They all regard her as a gold-digger who would service someone’s grandpa for money. It’s completely beyond me how you would fall for this cheap skank.”

“Mom!” yelled Tassach, infuriated, “I would never, never expect such acrimony and hostility from you – directed towards a girl you’ve hardly met, no less! I don’t think I even know you anymore. To me, you were always so kind and gentle, but today? To be frank with you, mom, you let me down today.”

Staring at him incredulously, Mrs. Conduibh asked, “Are you seriously censuring your own mother for that cheap woman?”

“If you were right, mom, I would absolutely respect you, but nothing you just said should come from an educated and respectable lady like yourself. That was genuinely disappointing.”

Mrs. Conduibh, angry and distressed, pointed a shaky finger at Tassach. “How dare you. I’ve been a loving mom to you for almost thirty years, but now I couldn’t compare to her. What exactly is so great about her that got you follow her around like a loyal puppy after more than four years? Do you wish me dead, Tassach? Are you trying to get rid of me completely?”

“That’s by no means what I meant, mom. I’m just a bit disappointed in you today, that’s all.”
