Secret

Chapter 12 Lauren’s Spite

“Oona, let’s go home!”

Christine gazed lovingly at her daughter, unwilling to let her stay here a moment longer when she thought of how that old hag from the Walsh family treated her daughter. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Never would she allow her daughter to suffer more than she needed to..

Oona’s cold eyes glared meaningfully at Verona before flickering away.

That look made Verona feel uneasy, sensing that the shameless fool was toying with her. She watched Oona’s departing figure with malice and resentiment in her eyes. Fool, just wait and see; I won’t let you off that easily

“Mother, Enoch is unbelievable. How could he act so thoughtlessly? It’s heartbreaking that he would leave the family for such an insignificant woman. Lauren watched as Enoch’s family disappeared, then sighed sadly.

“Hmph, that’s his own fault. I want to see what they think they can do now after leaving the family!” Old Mrs. Walsh was not pleased at all this time.

Worried that Old Mrs. Walsh might fall seriously ill from anger, Lauren hurriedly offered some comforting words. “Mother, please don’t be angry. When they realize how hard it is outside, they will definitely come back on their knees to ask for your forgiveness.

“Forget about it. Since they’ve decided to leave the Walsh family, they shouldn’t even think about coming back!” Old Mrs. Walsh snorted coldly, feeling quite angry. Then she turned to Verona, her expression softening as she said, “Verona is not young anymore. I think it’s time to arrange the marriage with the Dubin family. The future of the Walsh family will now depend on Verona and Lily”

Although Old Mrs. Walsh regretted that her second son had no male heir but only two daughters, she was content that both girls were exceptional in their own right, especially Verona. She was a rare genius girl of the century, far superior to that bastard child.

Upon hearing Old Mrs. Walsh’s words, Verona and Lauren looked at each other. Then Verona shyly said, “Grandma, I’m still young!”

“You’re not that young anymore. Wesley Dubin is a fine young man, and the Dubin family holds more influence than the Walsh family. It’s good for the family if you settle down sooner rather than later!” Old Mrs. Walsh stated.

“Mother, don’t worry. Wesley truly cares for Verona, and they’re both filial children. I’ll take care of this matter,” Lauren reassured..

“I trust you to handle things! Old Mrs. Walsh patted Lauren’s hand, a much happier expression on her face.

After Old Mrs Walsh retired to her room, Verona slipped off her mask as her face twisted with hatred and malice. “Mom, 1 won’t let that witch Oona get off that easy!”

“Shh, keep your voice down!” Seeing her precious daughter’s angry expression, Lauren warned her with a glance, then comforted her. “Don’t worry, I won’t let you be mistreated for no reason”

Recalling Oona’s actions, Lauren’s expression became fierce and ruthless. That Oona was truly despicable!

Suddenly, Verona’s phone rang.

It was Wesley.

“Since Oona likes Wesley so much, then it’s better to let Wesley teach her a lesson!” Lauren’s eyes gleamed with malice.

Hearing her mother’s words, Verona’s eyes lit up. Yes, that wretched Oona likes Wesley, doesn’t she?If Wesley knew what Oona had done, he would definitely make her pay accordingly.

The thought of Oona suffering at Wesley’s hand excited Verona.

“Mom, what should I do now?”
