Gorgeous Couple’s Sweet Love novel Chapter 28

The interviewer glanced at my resume and asked: "After four years of advertising planning, why did you choose to resign?"

Why?

Because I didn't want to live in that kind of atmosphere anymore; I didn't want to look at Charlotte all day and made myself feel disgusted!

I explained: "I want to quit my job and change to a new working environment. I hope I can learn from your company what I can't learn elsewhere."

"Alright. You can go back and wait for further notice."

I left with a smile and took my resume. I knew what he meant, they wouldn't hire me.

I returned to Elysia and took out the IOU that Benjamin wrote to me, took a photo, printed it out, and delivered it to Steve's home.

After all this was done, I went to the supermarket to buy materials and went back to Elysia to make cakes to kill the time, and then went to the police station in the afternoon.

I figured it out. I couldn't pick and choose anymore. I wanted to get back to my favorite job, even if the salary was not satisfactory.

At least I'd be at comfort.

I was making cakes at home all morning, and when it was over, I saw my mother's number on my phone screen.

Her call made me frown subconsciously. I didn't want to talk to her, but she called me again.

I looked at the number, and finally chose to pick it up and asked curiously: "Anything I can help you with?"

"Emma, I knew he was rich as soon as I looked at his car. I'm just curious how you got him?"

She was nothing but a snob.

I was at a loss of words for a while but still responded: "A friend of mine."

"Did you divorce because of him?"

I reminded: "It was Steve who cheated first."

It did not matter to my mother, she went on to say, "Whether you or Steve cheated first, it is true that you have a rich husband now."

She didn't care about me.

She only cared about money!

I bit my lip and asked, "What do you mean?"

Sure enough, she said shamelessly: "He is my son-in-law now, it wouldn't be a problem if I ask him for money, would it?"

"Mom, I want to sort out one thing for you."

She asked displeased: "What?"

I suppressed the uncomfortable feeling in my heart and said: "You have left me and my dad when I was a child, and you have never cared about me. After he passed away, you took his inheritance and gave me a meager living allowance every month, and pretended like you cared. I never blamed you for any of it."

When she heard the words, she immediately blurted out: "What can you blame on me? Don't you forget that you slipped out of my stomach!"

"Yes, you gave birth to me and that's it! As a mother, you never considered my feelings. Even if you knew Steve was cheating before I got divorced, you still chose to hide from me. In your concept, I wouldn't be an obstacle in your world if I was married and I would give you money every f*cking month!"

"After your dad passed away, I paid for everything you ever needed. Is it too much to ask you for some living expenses?"

She always felt whatever she said was reasonable!

I looked at the distant horizon outside the window, and remembered what Benjamin said, even if it was my own mother, I must have a bottom line!

Not to mention that she repeatedly violated my bottom line!

"Mom, you took all the money from my dad and you have a man to give you what you want. You are not short of money at all, don't you find yourself disgusting that you are asking me for money again? It's not even MY money!" My voice went cold and blurted out, "You know what, you are no longer a mother to me."

I knew that just because she was my mother, I would never be able to draw a line with her, but I hoped she could no longer take it for granted.

I hoped she will not treat me in whatever way she wanted, beating and scolding me whenever she wanted.

"Pretty tough, huh? Why weren't you so tough when your dad died? I'm telling you that there will be a time when you will beg me for my help!"

She became anxious and suddenly smiled and said: "Emma, remember, the only reason I left your father was because he was a f*cking deadbeat!"

She loved money just like Charlotte.

But they all used the wrong method.

After I hung up the phone, I felt heavy in my heart, but at the same time I felt extremely relaxed. She was furious!

In a short time, she wouldn't make trouble with me anymore!

Only a long time later did I know that she often asked Benjamin for money behind my back! She stomped my pride and asked a man who had a deal with me for money!

She even got addicted to it and kept doing it over and over!

In the afternoon, I took the cake I made and drove to the police station. Riley saw me and his eyes lit up and took the cake from my hand and smiled: "It's been a long time since I had the cake made by you. Guess it's our lucky day! By the way, Bob is also here!"

I was surprised and asked: "Bob is still in the police station?"

Riley opened the box, took a piece and stuffed it in his mouth, and explained in a muffled sound: "The new deputy commissioner is Bob's younger uncle Zack. Bob was transferred back here with his uncle last month. Yes, if you come back, our police station will be lively again.'

"Zack?"

I couldn't believe it and asked, "It's the legendary Zack who had frequently done meritorious service during my internship but I have never seen before? Hasn't he been transferred back to City B? Why did he suddenly transfer here!"

"You've never seen him?" Riley gave me a suspicious look, then laughed: "Yes, it's him, our new deputy commissioner."

"Riley, I want to go come to the police station." I said.
