Chapter 497 Visiting The Illegitimate Daughter Of My Mother
Michael ignored my question and his gaze intensified.
“Michael, are you hiding something from me? Did you find out about something?”
I glanced at Michael and asked in a serious tone. Michael was behaving too oddly today for me to ignore.
“Nope. It’s late. Let’s go back home.”
Michael gave me one last look before diverting his attention away.
I knitted my eyebrows, obviously displeased by his answer. Michael must know something but he refused to disclose it. I was fuming with anger at the thought.
After returning to the Shaw residence, I wanted to continue pestering Michael about Mrs. Campbell’s matter. However, Michael appeared to be disinterested in having a conversation and he went to bed immediately after taking a shower.
Hence, I had no choice but to bury those thoughts. Nevertheless, I was determined to ascertain the truth, or else I would feel like an idiot.
These few days were exceptionally tiring for me. Michael was already gone by the time I woke up. Hence, I did not have the opportunity to ask him about Mrs. Campbell’s matter.
In addition, I was occupied with work and quickly forgot about my question.
After days of looking for a job, I decided to work in a small company. It was tough looking for a company that fit my requirement. Thus, I decided to work in a company that was about to close down. If
I could bring the company back to life, then it would be a valuable skill worth uplifting myself with.
Everyone from the Shaw family disagreed with my choice. They were of the view that with my status in the Shaw family, I should not work at a company that was about to close down. If I wanted to, I could get any job that I wanted and there was no necessity to get myself involved in the mess.
Knowing that their intentions were genuine and kind, I could feel the warmth in my heart. However, that did not make me change my mind. I stared at Michael and he too did not stop me from doing what I wanted.
After working with the company for a few days, I found out that the company was riddled with all kinds of problems. The rectification of those problems would be insurmountable. However, I was confident that I could save the company.
During this period, I kept receiving calls and messages from Mrs. Campbell reminding me to take good care of myself.
Although it felt weird, I was grateful for her kind gesture.
Today, as I was browsing the company’s reports, a young lady barged into the office suddenly. She was young and appeared to be four or five years younger than me. Armed with a pretty face, she wore a pair of sunglasses and was dressed in branded clothes. Undoubtedly, she came from a wealthy family.
I frowned at the presence of the lady who showed up abruptly. Putting aside my work, I raised my head and looked at her.
“Hello, may I know who you are?”
I spoke in a nonchalant tone while sizing her up.
“You are Anna Garcia?”
She took off her sunglasses and started scrutinizing me as well. Her eyes were full of rivalry.
“Yes I am. And you are?”
I immediately frowned upon realizing that she was here to cause trouble.
“My name is Janette Campbell. I’m looking for you!”
She stared at me scornfully and she did not even bother to hide the disdain in her eyes.
“Ms. Campbell, I don’t think I know you. How can I help you?”
I had no idea who Janette was. Hence, I could confirm that we had never met before. However, my initial impression of her hateful appearance was subpar at best.
“I know that you don’t know me. But I do know you. My mom came all the way here because of you. I’m here today to find out who you are!”
When Janette was speaking, her stare exuded a strong sense of hatred.
“Your mom? Who is your mom?”
I could not wrap my head around the situation. I had never met her, but she came out of nowhere and was now trying to settle the score with me.
Her name is Janette Campbell. When she mentioned her Mom, the first thing that popped into my head was Mrs. Campbell. I recalled that Mrs. Campbell mentioned that she had a daughter. Could it be her?
“Is your mom Mrs. Campbell? Are you her daughter?”
I tried to test the waters. Although I framed it in the form of a question, my tone sounded like I was certain of the answer.
“Yes. You’re asking the obvious!”
Janette glanced at me coldly as if I was feigning my confusion.
“Ms. Campbell, I’m not sure why you are here, but I am working. Please leave now.”
Even if she was Mrs. Campbell’s daughter, I had no obligation to entertain her rudeness and sense of entitlement. After all, it was office hours and she just showed up in my office unannounced. Even worse, she was finding fault with me!
“I’m here today to find out what my mother’s illegitimate daughter looks like!”
Perhaps Janette realized that I was not a person that would respond to the carrot or the stick, she started uttering audacious and unpleasant remarks. I looked up immediately and stared at her in shock, perturbed by what she just said.
“Ms. Campbell, what nonsense are you saying? Who’s your mother’s illegitimate child? Are you trying to humiliate your mother or me?”
Despite knowing Janette’s ill intentions from the beginning, I was still infuriated upon hearing her atrocious statement. Even if she was Mrs. Campbell’s daughter, her behavior was way out of line.
I had my own parents and got nothing to do with Mrs. Campbell! How could I be Mrs. Campbell’s daughter? That was preposterous!
“Humiliate you? As my Mom’s illegitimate child, she would surely take good care of you in the future. You must be feeling lucky!”
Janette was unaffected by my outburst. She continued to stare at me scornfully as if I was going to snatch her mother’s inheritance.
“Janette, you must speak with proof and evidence. If you continue to behave in such a barbaric manner, I will have to call the police!”
I stood up and slammed on the table. With my gaze fixated furiously on her, I was struggling to contain my boiling rage. Initially, I thought that I would be able to tolerate her as she was Mrs. Campbell’s daughter. However, her statement was beyond reprehensible. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
“Do you think I’m speaking without any basis? If you are not my mom’s illegitimate child, why would she treat you so nicely? I heard that she even cooked for you herself! And she has been calling and messaging you every day. Why does she care so much about you? Does she not have anything better to do?”
