Chapter 1148 Get Out
Stefanie sneered and questioned, "Why? Embarrassed to share your deeds with
everyone?"
"You can do that, so why can't I? Come in if you wish to listen. Stop pestering everyone!"
With no desire to entertain her, Winnie indifferently responded before entering the room
with Edmont.
Persistently, Stefanie replied, "Good! I'll play along with you. All of you, come, so you'll
stop hoping for me to compromise!" As she spoke, she deliberately glanced at Ellen.
Earlier in the resting room, Ellen advised Stefanie to compromise, but since she had never
shared the same experience, she could not force her into complying. If she were in
Stefanie's shoes, would she allow Shane's daughter to marry her son?
Ellen assured, "Of course, I'll go! The matter pertains to my daughter's life-long happiness!
I'll go even without you asking!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEugene and Olivia had no intentions of joining the group, but as Jewel held on to her, not
allowing her to leave, the two could only follow along.
After the group entered the unit, they shut the door. With that, Stefanie carefreely glared
at Winnie and sarcastically snickered. "Despite your sneakiness, you surely failed to
expect your daughter would fall for my son, didn't you? Even if they're not biological
siblings, I'll never allow them to get married, so forget it!"
Jewel tensed her brows forcefully as she stared at Stefanie's morose face. As she was
about to speak, the startled Alex hastily dragged her into his arms and shouted at
Stefanie, "What are you talking about, Mom? She's never been Jewel's mother."
Stefanie was stunned, peering at Winnie in shock.
Back when she discovered that Jewel's mother was not named Winnie Parker, she
assumed that the latter had changed her name, given how similar they looked. Since she
did not want such a shameful incident to spread, she allowed her son to go through agony
with her once again.
After knowing that Helena had married another man instead of Edmont and lived a life of
poverty since then, Stefanie felt much at ease and even bizarrely cultivated a noble sense
of achievement. After all, the woman took her husband away, only to end up abandoned
and in misery. Therefore, be it their similar fates or the fact that her son was in love with
Helena's daughter, Stefanie never went looking for Helena to start any trouble. Instead,
she gave them a million in exchange for their departure from this city.
Yet, just a minute ago, she saw the woman standing hand in hand with Edmont, and that
to her was an invisible, ferocious smack on the face, which then sparked an
inextinguishable flame of rage in her heart.
"They look identical. How are they not the same person?"
Hugging Jewel in anguish, Alex felt helpless against the misunderstanding that caused so
much suffering to him and Jewel. Sounding somewhat annoyed, he exclaimed, "As I said,
Jewel's mother is Helena Parker, and they look identical because they're twins!"
Thereupon, Stefanie stared at Winnie in dismay for quite a while, finding not the slightest
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdifference in her except for her lesser quality. Twins? So, does that mean she's Jewel's
aunt?
Then, she revealed a sardonic grin. "It's the same to me whether you're her mother or
aunt. I'll never allow anyone that bears any connection to you to be with my son unless I
die!" she enunciated her stance.
Upon those words, Jewel subconsciously gasped as her fear came to reality. As long as she
was related to Helena, Stefanie would never acknowledge her. Instinctively, she attempted
to shake herself out of Alex's grab.
However, the man tightened his grip. As his eyes reddened, he shouted at Stefanie,
"Mom! Can you be reasonable? How is that Jewel's fault? Why do we have to be affected,
separated by the grudge of you people of the previous generation? I don't care anymore!
As long as I live, I want no one else except Jewel. If you don't wish to see me die a single
man, get out of my way!"
