Chapter 398: A Failure

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Linda James hated Finn Taylor’s guts now. Even though the latter had given her everything that she had now—from the villa to the cash in her hands—she still hated him.?‘He’s the reason my daughter is saying such things to me. In the past, she was so filial and would never rebuke me. In fact, my daughter would always support whatever decisions I made. Even if she didn’t, she would eventually give in after a tantrum. Yet, my daughter was now scolding me! It’s all Finn Taylor’s fault!’?

“Finn Taylor, you disgust me. I feel so nauseous. Who are you? You’re just a piece of trash. Your own parents didn’t even cherish you! Have they ever treated you as human? Who were the ones who allowed you to sit at the same table as them? It wasn’t the Taylor family, but us! I accepted you. I was such a good mother-in-law, but look at how you’re repaying my kindness! You even coerced my daughter into scolding me! You heartless b*stard, you’re an ingrate. Do you have a conscience? How could you do this to me?”

“Finn Taylor, haven’t you been bullied since you were young? Who in the Taylor family has treated you sincerely? Don’t look at me like that. I’m sure you don’t like hearing this, but these words are facts. Nobody in the Taylor family likes you. Our family accepted you and gave you hope. You might think that you paid for everything here, but have you ever thought about why you were able to do that? It’s because our family gave you hope. That’s why you were able to earn all that money. To be honest, it’s all thanks to our family that you managed to earn all that. Therefore, don’t you think it’s only right that you give it all to us?”

“I don’t think I owe you anything. In fact, I think we deserve these things. On the contrary, you’ve never done anything for me. I’m the one who has provided you with warmth, yet you’re repaying my kindness like this. What is wrong with you?”

Linda James’s words shocked both her daughter and Finn Taylor.?‘How could she say that?’?

“Mom, touch your heart and tell me whether you really think Finn owes you anything. Look at how you’re living now! How could you say such a thing? Do you think that Finn really owes you anything? You make it sound as though you’ve really done something for Finn to be able to make a mark for himself, but what have you really done for him? I’m sure you know in your heart. Where were you every time he was being bullied? You were either standing by the sidelines or joining in to bully him as well. Is that what you mean by supporting him and giving him hope?”

Linda James felt as though she was going to lose her mind.?‘How dare Yvette say that about me? She’s my daughter!’?

“Yvette, are you out of your mind? I’m your mother! Who is he? He’s just an outsider, but you’re divorced. Legally, you two aren’t related at all. Even if you two were still legally married, you would still have to help me if your husband and I both got into trouble at the same time. But are you on good terms with him? What’s your relationship?” Linda James had lost all reason and was now scolding her daughter as well.

“Mom, you’re ridiculous. I can’t believe someone can have such ridiculous ideas. I think you’re the only one in the world like that.”

“Ridiculous? You think I’m ridiculous? I gave birth to you and spent my whole life raising you, but what do I get in return? Yes, I’m a joke. The biggest mistake I made was allowing you to marry Finn Taylor. I could’ve objected to Finn Taylor being our matrilocal son-in-law, but I eventually agreed to it. Look, now you guys are ganging up against an old lady. Yes, I’m a useless old woman. Since I can’t earn any money, I should go and die. What’s the point in living? My daughter doesn’t even love me anymore.”

“Thank god I can still speak and move. Imagine if I was on an oxygen machine. I’m sure you guys would shut it off and kill me! How ridiculous! I’ve lived such a long life, and my own daughter wants to kill me now! It’s all because of you, Finn Taylor! You’re amazing! You turned my beloved daughter against me! Finn Taylor, I finally understand why the Taylor family thinks of you as a jinx and why nobody likes you! They’re your biological family, but they didn’t even like you! There was a reason for that!” Linda James crossed the line again and again.

“Mom, can you stop saying such nasty things? Do you really mean it, or are you only saying it because we’re fighting? I’ll forget about it if you’re only saying it because you’re angry, but I think you better get a checkup done if this is what you really think. Is there something wrong with your brain?”

“Wow, you’re amazing. Finn Taylor, did you hear that? My daughter is saying that I’m crazy.. Alright, I must be crazy then. Do you know how good my daughter was to me in the past? But now that she’s with you, she’s calling me crazy! What’s the point in living? My daughter thinks I’m mad! I’m such a failure!”
