You, Me And Our Genus Twins

Chapter 156 Disgust

If this was before she had seen Cameron in prison, then Crystal might have considered pretending as if she was still on close terms with Angie just to make sure the Colts would treat the girl well enough.

But as things were, Crystal was filled with nothing more than hatred for Cameron, and by extension, she was disgusted with Angie too.

Angie had decided to show up in front of her at the most inappropriate of times.

She could only blame herself for being incapable of protecting her own daughter all those years ago. This had allowed Angie to take her real daughter’s place and spend a good twenty-something years living in the lap of luxury in the Wendels’ household.

Crystal did not want to see Angie at all. It only reminded her of how she had given Angie a life of privilege while her real daughter was suffering in another home for the same amount of time.

The more she thought about this, the more her heart twisted, and she was filled with indescribable agony.

She felt nothing more than hatred and disgust for Angie, so much so that she couldn’t even bring herself to feign sympathy or fondness for the girl.

“Don’t ever call us Mom and Dad again,” Crystal bit out icily as she eyed Angie impassively. “Maddie is our daughter, and you are Xander and Cameron’s. Neither I nor the Wendels have anything to do with you anymore.”

“Mom…” Angie stared at Crystal pleadingly. She wanted to beg for her favor and sympathy, but she could not bring herself to do it. She was worried that if she did, Amelia would find out she meant nothing to Michael and Crystal.

However, Amelia had already realized this.

When Angie first returned to the Colt Residence, she had made it sound as though Michael and Crystal still loved her. However, they had to send her away because they wanted to placate their real daughter, whose animosity toward her had been unbearable and there was no resolving things amicably.
