The Miraculous Simone Gray novel Chapter 418

On that day, all four brothers slipped away. It was almost dinner time. Salma looked displeased when none of her sons showed up. Jodie took this chance to slander the brothers right in front of Salma.

They ignored me. They seem happy when I keep my distance from them. But they groveled to Simone when she used this trick? Lately, their biological mother often came to her asking for money, and she used the money she received from Salma to help her out.

There was also trouble at her uncle's house, and her biological mother came to her in tears every day. They cared about her a lot, which made her feel warm inside. Her grandmother would secretly make pastries and send them to her. Her aunt and others would come and pamper her in a low voice, making her feel comfortable.

It also comforted her for the humiliation she endured in front of Salma. So, she wanted her brothers to sponsor several million to help her uncle's family. But when she asked, they all ran away.

So now she hated them, one by one, for being so clueless. After Jodie spoke, Salma became even more furious. She took out her phone and called her four sons. Not only did they refuse to come and have dinner with her, they also mocked and belittled her.

It seemed like it was all her fault. They said they came to have dinner with her wholeheartedly, but she treated them as punching bags. And she kept scolding them, hurting their feelings. Since she insisted on acting this way, they would be the ungrateful children she said they were. They wouldn't serve her anymore.

This made Salma so angry that she almost fainted. "They really are a bunch of ungrateful people. How can they accuse me of wrongdoing?" They didn't even want to accompany their biological mother for dinner, yet they had the audacity to claim they were filial.

Then she remembered the proposal her four sons had made. So, she called her eldest son and asked him to come and have dinner with her. During the time she was away from the Gray Family, her husband didn't contact her proactively and showed no concern for her. Her family also held a grudge against her. When she left the Gray Family, not a single person bothered to show care or offer condolences.

Salma was starting to regret her decision. But she couldn't bring herself to swallow her pride and make amends, so the situation remained tense. Now that her eldest son was back from his business trip, he might be able to help her return home.

Reuben received a call from his biological mother and went to the villa after work. As soon as he entered, he saw Jodie, who was full of smiles, welcoming him. "Reuben, you're here." Jodie greeted him and politely reached out to take the briefcase he was carrying. "Mom is waiting for you in the dining room."

Although Reuben was wary of Jodie, he didn't hold any grudges. The recent wave of artists switching companies had disgraced him. Not only were the shareholders of Gray Entertainment dissatisfied with him, but he also heard that there were some executives in the group who had some negative opinions about him.

One sister was his biological sister, and the other sister was a well-behaved and gentle foster sister. He felt that his foster sister was better since at least she was obedient and understood his cues. His biological sister was becoming more and more infuriating.

He responded with a smile. "Alright, I'll go to the dining room, then."

Seeing her older brother's attitude, Jodie felt relieved as it wasn't much different from before. She leaned in close to him and whispered, "Mom is not in a good mood. She's been upset by the other four brothers." She also slandered the other four around Reuben.

After hearing Jodie's words, Reuben frowned. "These four guys are getting out of hand." How could they say such sarcastic and mocking things to their own mother? It was too much.
