Chapter 238
Kimberly was unhappy and said, “Mom, why are you always siding with others? Mark is your son. After all, Harold has nothing to do with you. Cyril is your grandson!”
Bonnie raised her eyes and said, “If he wasn’t my own son, I wouldn’t have bothered with him!” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Mark said, “Mom, now Harold doesn’t even care about me anymore. Who knows if he will be disrespectful to you in the future?”
He paused and continued, “What’s more, if he knows what happened to Leilani that year… he would never let you go!”
Bonnie tightened her grip on the armrest of the chair. She stared at Mark and said, “What nonsense are you spouting!”
“…” Mark said, “Mom, it’s not that I want to talk about the past on purpose, but it’s just that Harold is too outrageous now. How long can a madman like him respect you? He just came back but didn’t ask about your health. You’ve worked hard for him but he put you under house arrest. Is this what a grandson should do?”
Kimberly echoed, “That’s right, Mom. Are you going to watch us fall just like that?”
Bonnie’s eyelids were drooping. There was no sign of her emotions on her wrinkled face. She said, “I’ve been locked up in this courtyard. What else can I do?”
Mark gritted his teeth and said, “Mom, there are some things that I wanted to say a long time ago, but I’ve always been wary because of our relationship. But today, I am not going to endure it anymore!”
He stood up and said: “Sometimes, I wonder if I am your son! It seems more like Antonio is your son! When I was young, you were partial to Antonio, and now you are partial to Harold…” He stared at his mother and said, “Am I not your son?”
Bonnie was stunned, and then she looked at Mark in disbelief. “You said that I’m partial to Antonio and Harold!?”
“Mark, if you were useful, would I have to beg Harold to come back and take over the company?” Bonnie was so angry that she trembled. “Am I partial or am I cleaning up your mess?”
Kimberly quickly supported Bonnie and comforted her. “Mom, don’t be angry. Mark only said that out of anger. He certainly doesn’t think so in his heart. It’s all Harold’s fault. Yes, he saved the company that year, but now he wants to chase all of us away. He couldn’t even tolerate his own uncle and didn’t give him any face. Who wouldn’t be angry?”
Mark also realized that his words were too harsh and said, “Mom, I didn’t mean that… I…”
Bonnie rubbed her temples and said, “Don’t make a scene in front of me. Harold doesn’t treat me as his grandmother. i can’t control him.”
Mark gritted his teeth. “Mom!”
“Grandma!” Cyril said, “Even Luke, an assistant, is being rude to me now. If you don’t care about us, how can we live in the future?”
Cyril was usually the best at pleasing her, so Kimberley doted on him the most among her three children. Bonnie was no exception. She looked at his haggard face and frowned. “…Okay, I’ll talk to
him.”
Mark’s eyes lit up and he said, “Mom, you must keep my position!”
Bonnie sneered. “If Harold is so easy to talk to, why don’t you talk to him yourself?”
