Chapter 20 Surprise

• "What the hell are you doing here, mom?" I asked with a clenched jaw.
• My mom, Elizabeth Maxwell was a very strict-on-business kind of lady, she was a workaholic and she left me with dad for my entire childhood. She never once held me, whenever she wanted to, she would hold me for milk but other than that, she never once cared. She put her business over herself and her family, working at her own holding company, she dedicated her soul to work, not once talking to me or even trying to interact with me.
• She gave me a tight-lipped smile as her dark blonde waves cascaded down her back and her honey-coloured lenses gave me a glare in a warning. "I should be asking you the same thing, did you think hiring a girl that will cover for you works on me?" she belittled me in front of Mr. Clay, as he crossed his arms and watched our reactions.
