Chapter 125 The Young Lady Margaret Is Raising Is Not That Simple
“She’s really popular. Do you want to see-”
Wanda Interrupted her. “Mrs. Jennings, I know that you’re close with that poor old lady, but I don’t want to hear anything about those two.”
With that, she tossed her bag on the ground and stalked off. It was as if it had been polluted with thoughts of Wynter and made her feel disgusted.
Amara shoved her friend. “Why did you say that to her?”
Zendaya pursed her l*ps. “I just wanted to warn her not to dig her own grave. I didn’t think she wouldn’t appreciate it.”
The young lady Margaret was raising was not that simple. Every time she turned on
her livestream, she would start trending. Yet, Wanda refused to even think about
these things. She was such a fool.
Wanda got into the car huffily. “That st*pid lassie embarrassed me again! Of all
things, she had to become a streamer. What’s the difference between streaming and begging on the Internet? She’s such a loser!”
Ewan got into the car and shut the door. His expression turned gloomy. Wanda
sensed that he was upset about something. “What’s the matter with you?”
Now that no one was around, Ewan unleashed his irritation. “I’m not sure what
happened at the Welkin Corporation, but they didn’t choose to partner with us this
time.
“Why?” Wanda knew that this was a big deal and began to feel uneasy. “Should we
go to Kingbourne to pull some strings?”
Ewan stubbed out his cigarette. “That’s not necessary for now. Their second–in-
command is here. I’ll find an opportunity to visit him.”
“Alright.” Wanda didn’t dare to contact her family either. After all, things were
currently a mess there.
Ewan then added, “Before this, you said that
Yvette had a means of getting into the
Yarwoods Manor. Is that true?”
On this topic, Wanda got mad again. “Yvette and I went, but they didn’t let us in. The person in charge said that the Zenith herb had been returned to its original owner already.
“Your mother didn’t even bother to inform us after taking it back. I knew that she and the fake one would only give me trouble!”
“Enough.” Ewan bellowed. “She raised me after all, so don’t strain the relationship more than it needs to be. Did you manage to find out what the Zenith herb does?”
Wanda leaned close to him. “Yve said that it has exceptional medicinal properties, especially when it comes to patients with terminal illnesses.”
“I know.” Ewan knew that. “Since Mom wants to raise that young lady, then let her. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Don’t keep getting involved.”
Wanda lied through her teeth and said, “I don’t have the time to care about your busybody mother. If you don’t think that their livestream is embarrassing for you, then I don’t care. When everyone in the business circle makes fun of you, you can deal with it yourself.”
Ewan frowned when he heard that. He needed to do something about the livestream!
Considering his status in Southdale, he would get ridiculed if word got out that his mother was desperately trying to grub for money on the Internet. With this in mind, he made up his mind to visit the Waterview Alley himself.
In the evening, Margaret had just closed the clinic after a busy afternoon. Just as she sat down to rest, she heard a familiar voice from the doorway.
“Mom.”
Margaret’s face fell. “What are you doing here?”
Ewan hadn’t visited in half a year. He looked around in surprise, expecting to see the shabby massage parlor from his memories. “Mom, did you renovate the shop?”
Margaret’s gaze darkened. “It’s none of your business.”
“Mom, I’m your son. How could it be none of my business?” Ewan had finally thought

about being a good son. He placed the supplements he bought on the floor. “I heard that you’re doing some livestream these days. Mom, why are you doing that? It’s really embarrassing.”
Margaret took a deep breath. “I don’t know about embarrassing. All I know is that !
