Married a Secret Billionaire

What Melissa said struck a delicate nerve in Linda’s heart.

In the past, she would have charged at her, strangled her, and even slapped her. Or maybe she would have asked Ian to do it, just like how he dealt with Mollie. She would have allowed him to be as brutal as possible.

But she couldn’t do that anymore.

She took a few deep breaths and tried to calm herself and stop the trembling. Then she looked at Melissa calmly.

“Don’t say that.” Linda’s voice was soft. “You’ve been her mother for 20 years. You have every right to be called her mother.”

Melissa was shocked, and tears instantly streamed down her face. “But I stole those 20 years…”

As soon as she said that, it felt like a heavy rock crushed their hearts simultaneously.

Linda could hardly breathe, desperately trying not to cry.

Finally, Melissa let go. After 20 years, she could finally face the truth.

Definitely not.
