My Mommy’s Brave Heart

Chapter 964

Jada raised her head and stared quietly at her daughter.

“Mom, why are you looking at me like that…?” Ruth was a little scared. “I didn‘t say anything wrong. She was being pretentious, completely unlike someone who has been living under someone else‘s roof…”

“When Jack insulted Adeena, were you the one who instigated it?” Jada asked slowly. “I just heard Jack call Adeena a whore. Were you the one who told him Adeena had kids?”

Ruth felt really guilty, but she remained stubborn. “It‘s not like I lied. Adeena did give birth to a child. Didn‘t you tell me this yourself?”

Slap!

Jada slapped her.

“Mom, why did you slap me?!” Ruth cupped her face. “I only told Jack the truth. What did I do wrong? I grew up with Jack, but you made us break up! That‘s not all! You‘re going to stick Jack with someone‘s used goods, and I’m just kindly reminding him of that, can‘t I?”

“Because of you, that child in Adeena‘s stomach was taken out at seven months. And because the baby was underdeveloped, the child died prematurely two hours after birth. First, Adeena saved your life. Second, because of us, her flesh and blood is dead!” Jada said every word slowly, “We owe her a debt of two lives, so we must take her in! Why can‘t you understand this?!”

Ruth gritted her teeth.
