Her Mother Had Abandoned Her
Gloria’s lips twitched. Actually, Angela was a strong-willed woman. If it hadn’t been for what had
happened last night, which had driven her into a dead-end street and destroyed the image she had
created for herself all these years in a day, she wouldn’t have become so mad.
Gloria only smiled, “I’ve no intention of getting back together with Jordy. But speaking that, Cousin
Angela, 1 don’t think Jordy’s eye is ever on you. Being bedridden for a year has brought nothing in him
but his pity for you. A marriage bound by gratitude. Is that any different from mine with him?”
“Of course there is!” Angela didn’t hesitate to satirize, “I’m not you. And I will never bind him with your
so-called gratitude. Just because he didn’t love you doesn’t mean he doesn’t love me. You’ll see,
Gloria.”
Gloria nodded with a smile. “Then I wish you nothing but success. I hope you can break the deadlock.
Don’t let anyone think of you as a clown. I’ll be sorry for you.”
“You!” Angela was maddened!
How dared she say that! If it hadn’t been for her, her life would be so miserable!
Nobody had talked about it in public, but she was sure she had been everyone’s secret butt of the joke!
All it had all been because of Gloria!
Angela took a deep breath. If she didn’t get Gloria back today, she’d die! She would make sure Gloria’s
life will get more miserable!
And the next second, she suddenly whispered into Gloria’s ear with a smile, “Do you think you are the
winner
now?”
Angela’s voice was too low even for the recorder.
Gloria frowned and looked over at her.
An evil smile broke on Angela’s lips, “Do you know what the biggest failure of your life is?”
Gloria was silent. Angela could barely contain her thrill and went on with her satire, ‘That you’re
destined to be disfavored! By your husband! By your families! You’re never going to be accepted or
recognized by any of
them!”
Angela got more excited as she went on whispering, ‘Your mother dumped your father and kicked you
away because you were a daughter. She thought you as useless. Do you really think she died in
childbirth?”
Gloria’s face was stunned, she looked over at her, “What do you mean?”
“You drunk father told it to my father at a drink. He asked him not to tell anyone.”
Gloria’s eyes suddenly widened. She didn’t think that was just made up by Angela. Dad had never
talked about mom when she was little. Even mentioning her mom would trigger deep disappointment in
his father’s eyes. However, he had never said anything bad about her, but had only replaced the topic.
She had believed that his father was just too sad to mention it. But now, Angela might be right!
“Being the daughter of a great family, she had needed a son to reclaim her family fortune. Three years
after the wedding, they finally had you. And for the next two years, she had never become pregnant
again. So she abandon your father and you and left. Now you could see how abominable your birth
was, Gloria?”
Gloria’s whole world was rocked. She had always believed his father and that had never come to her
mind. But now, she had found that she had a mother and had been abandoned by her!
But if her mother had been a woman like that, why had her father married her in the first place?
