chapter148

She hadn’t expected her mother, usually so oblivious to her own marriage, to see through Audrey’s intentions at a glance.

Even at this point, Audrey showed no sign of embarrassment.

She pulled Darlene over and spoke as if it were only natural.

“Darla wanted to surprise her dad, so we didn’t tell Dami in advance.”

Claudine also saw Darlene.

The child looked even thinner than last time, and the dark circles under her eyes had deepened.

Darlene looked listless, yawning repeatedly.

Claudine casually asked a question.

“Did you come overnight?”

Darlene nodded.

Claudine immediately understood. Audrey claimed it was Darlene who wanted to see her father, but it was clearly Audrey who wanted to find Damian!

As for why she was in such a hurry, it was obviously because of last night’s video call.

A barely noticeable smile tugged at Claudine’s lips. Audrey really couldn’t keep her composure.

Bridgette, hearing that they had come overnight, looked at Darlene with concern.

“How can such a young child be dragged around like this!

Darla, would you like grandma to take you to rest?

You’ve sweated so much. Let’s eat something, take a bath, and then go to sleep.”

Darlene glanced at Audrey. Seeing her mother remain silent, she still shook her head.

“I’m not sleepy. I want to stay with my mom.”

Bridgette saw how tired the child was and wanted to persuade her again, but Claudine spoke up.

“Mom, since Darla said she’s not sleepy, let’s just leave it.”

With that, she really ignored them, acting as if the two didn’t exist, continuing to drink coffee and eat pastries.

As for Darlene…

She hadn’t eaten much for dinner last night, and she never touched airplane food.

Now, looking at the pastries on the table, her stomach began to rumble.

She looked pitifully at Claudine, thinking Claudine would invite her over to eat together.

But Claudine didn’t even spare her a glance.

And her mother…

Her mother was used to skipping breakfast, so she probably didn’t have anything to give her either…

Bridgette immediately saw through Darlene’s thoughts and beckoned her over.

“If you don’t want to sleep, then have something to eat first.”

As she spoke, she placed a cupcake in Darlene’s hand.

But Claudine reached out and took the cupcake from Darlene’s hand.

The child already had a weak stomach, and eating a cupcake on an empty stomach would definitely give her a stom- achache.

Although she ignored Darlene on the surface, she had already instructed the servant to make chicken soup.

It should be ready soon.

She was just about to speak when Darlene suddenly burst into tears.

“Claudine, you’re a bad woman! Why won’t you let me eat!”

Audrey immediately stepped forward to hug her daughter, gently wiping away her tears.

“Don’t cry, Darla, don’t cry. When daddy comes back, we’ll ask him to get you something delicious, okay?”

When Darlene heard about her father, she cried even harder.

“I’m going to tell daddy that Claudine made me go hungry! Waaa!”

Audrey, seemingly eager to comfort her child, went along with her words.

“Alright, alright, we’ll tell daddy later. Don’t cry, sweetheart!”

Claudine just looked coldly at Audrey

She knew Audrey had deliberately mentioned Damian to prompt Darlene to say those things.

It was one thing for Audrey to use her own daughter, but to teach her this way and let her become weaker and weaker

was another

Claudine even began to doubt whether Darlene was really Audrey’s daughter.
