Spoiled my CEO husband after Rebirth

Chapter 142 Get Gwenda Out Here to See Me

Pauline waved her hand repeatedly. "I just want her to live well. I don't care if she hates me or blames

me for anything."

"Honestly, you..."

Arely shook her head resignedly and continued, "I really don't know what Gwenda is thinking. You're

such an amazing stepmother that you might as well be her real mother! What else could she possibly

want? She's so spoiled that she's become an uppity fool. I think that you should just pay more attention

to Gretchen now, Pauline. You're her real mother. Don't end up treating her like you're her stepmother.

That's kind of sad for her."

"I understand. I had neglected her in the past. I won't do it again."

Pauline nodded, looking like she had been properly admonished, and Arely smiled with satisfaction.

...

They strolled about for a little while longer before taking a break at a coffee shop.

"By the way, I heard that Gretchen and Martin are together?"

Arely asked casually while sipping at her coffee.

Pauline nodded. "Yeah, it's precisely because of this that Gwenda got angry."

"How can she be angry? She refused to cherish her own fiancé, but is now trying to destroy other

people's happiness?"

Arely snorted coolly.

"Well, Gwenda is certainly a little bad-tempered. Forget about Martin, she constantly talks back to me. I

wonder if she still treats people like this now."

"She dares to talk back to you?"

Arely was surprised.

Pauline forced a smile and said, "She didn't use to do that often. It's likely different now that there's

estrangement. Remember how she moved out a while ago? I tried to persuade her to come home, but

she told me off."

"What did she say?"

"It's nothing much. She just felt that I wasn't good enough for her, and that I helped Gretchen steal

Martin from her."

When she got to this point, Pauline's eyes turned red. "I'm not really the sort to care about these kinds

of things. But hearing them from Gwenda made me feel a little bad. I've done so much for her and

suffered various grievances for her over the years to the point that I've neglected Gretchen. But I didn't

think that she would still complain about me..."

Pauline's voice became choked up as she began to cry quietly.

Seeing this, Arely gnashed her teeth in anger. "That wicked girl! You've truly raised her all these years © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

for nothing!"

"Everyone knows how good I am to her. Unfortunately, she just can't see it."

Pauline wiped her eyes and forced another smile. "Forget it. Let's not talk about this anymore."

"Pauline..."

Arely felt bad for her. "Don't be sad. If you can't teach that brat a lesson, I will help you. I refuse to

believe that I can't keep her in check as an adult!"

"Ah, just forget it..."

"How could you say that! Don't worry, Pauline, I'll talk to her about this!"

Arely said with bluster.

Hearing this, Pauline looked down and wiped away her remaining tears. Her face now at an angle that

Arely could not see clearly, Pauline let out a triumphant smile.

After Pauline had wailed to Arely about her "troubles", Arely did everything she could to find Gwenda's

studio the next day and hurried over there.

The moment she got through the door, she began to yell, "Get Gwenda out here to see me!"

"Ma'am, Miss Evans is not in the studio right now. Is there an urgent matter?"

The receptionist received her and asked politely.

But Arely yelled aggressively, "Don't try to fool me with that! I don't care if she's here or not, she will

come and see me! Otherwise, I will never leave!"
