The Substitute Wife: My Poor Husband Is A Billionaire

Chapter 1178 Reject Your Apology

Upon witnessing Garrett’s blatant disrespect, Vera was incandescent with rage. “Enough! Is there any reverence left in you for me, your own mother?”

It was only then that Garrett halted. He pivoted and eyed the timorous expression on Kailee’s visage. His words dripped with icy disdain. “It seems you lack respect for me, your son. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have welcomed into our home the woman responsible for Laney’s hospitalization.”

Vera was flabbergasted by Garrett’s insolence. Her fury caused her chest to heave tumultuously. She jabbed a finger toward Garrett, rendered speechless by her ire.

Sensing the opportune moment to gain favor, Kailee demurely lowered her gaze and bit her lip. Her eyes reddened, and her countenance was etched with contrition. “Garrett, the blame is entirely mine. I offer my most sincere apologies. I shall endure any punishment you see fit. But, I implore you, do not quarrel with your mother over this matter. Her intentions were pure.”

Upon hearing this, Vera’s favorable opinion of Kailee soared, while her animosity towards Laney intensified.

She held Laney accountable for the rift with Garrett. If not for Laney’s instigation, how could Garrett have become so defiant?

Yet, she had entirely forgotten that, without Laney, Garrett would never have quit the Larson Group, much less returned to the Harding Group.
