Looking at me, Petra waved her hands. " That’s not true, but now that you're pregnant again, you have to be careful about everything.
I could not help but think about what she said.
Petra had been in the business world for several years, and she knew more about the world than I did, so her words were not without merit.
"By the way, I heard that you let Cindy manage Nectarine Entertainment?" As if she knew it was inappropriate to hover over this topic, so Petra changed it.
Cindy was once pampered by them like a treasure in the palm of their hands. She should have some feelings for Cindy too.
I nodded my head and did not deny it.
My hand was suddenly tightened by her grip, and Petra’s eyes were full of caution." She did so many bad things to you. She was self-absorbed, so why did you pull her up? What if..."
I originally thought that Petra would speak for Cindy, but I did not expect otherwise.
Sure enough, businesspeople were businesspeople.
I drew out my hand, and my expression sank. "This is my business. According to what you said, you also once laid a vicious hand on me, so do I have to be wary of you now?"
After being subdued by my sentence, Petra froze. She panicked. "What are you talking about, Wanda? I'm your mother. I didn't know about it before."
"It's the same. What's done is done."
I could choose to let go, but that did not mean I would forget.
I would not forget what they had done to me in the past.
I would not let things slide so easily if they disappointed me again.
"Okay, let’s not talk about it. It's rare for my daughter to come back, so let's not talk about those unhappy things." Louis, who had not said anything, opened his mouth and tried to ease the awkward atmosphere between Petra and me.
Petra also understood the principle of taking the good things as they came, so she naturally did not go any further and swept the topic away.
