Chapter 730 Gloss It Over

Rina said nothing. Instead, she looked at Julia, and it was obvious that she wanted Julia to leave them alone. She wanted a private talk.

Julia blanched and she felt even more hurt, but still, she managed to force a smile. “Rina, I’m your mother. Why can’t I listen to the conversation?”

Rina turned her head away and averted her gaze.

That simple action was like a stab to the heart for Julia, shattering it into pieces. She felt suffocated from the sheer pain. She doesn’t want me to be here, and she doesn’t even want to see me. She doesn’t want to talk to me. She… Julia covered her face and started to cry.

Titus had chosen to stay neutral, but at that point, he frowned, and he looked at Rina with slight annoyance. He knew what Julia said hurt Rina and angered her. That was why he turned a blind eye even though Rina was throwing a tantrum. But she’s taking it too far now.

Rina noticed the displeasure in his voice. She averted her gaze and stared at the ground silently.
