"That’s in the law!"
In the end, Mrs. Thompson simply brought out the law and raised her head. She didn’t believe that Riya would not follow the law!
Law?
Riya looked at Mrs. Thompson in amusement.
"The law has long been revised. I suggest you read it when you have time."
Mrs. Thompson was stunned but before she could say anything else, Riya had already stepped to the side.
"No you..."
"Miss, isn’t it rude to ignore your mother like this? No matter what, she’s still..."
"Don’t interfere in other people’s household matter." Riya looked at the aunt who tried to meddle coldly and then walked away.
"I’m your mother! Why can’t you treat me as one?" Mrs. Thompson was wailing and made trouble once again.
Riya paused for a moment.
Why?
She looked back at Mrs. Thompson who was crying on the street without caring for her image and took a deep breath. No matter when, Mrs. Thompson had never acted as a proper adult.
Even in the past, she only knew how to throw tantrum when there were troubles in front of her.
This made Riya felt exhausted when she looked at her mother.
She could remember some pieces of memories in her past. Parts that she actually didn’t want to remember if it was possible. Mrs. Thompson would cry loudly and Mr. Taylor would be too lazy to deal with her.
It was strange how these two people could get married in the first place.
The young Riya didn’t understand but being uncared for and tossed aside, the young her only knew how to cry. She wanted her father and mother at that time.
Unfortunately, neither were available for her.
"If you want to be treated as parent, you should have aced as one from he very beginning." Even if it’s imperfect because it’s your first time as a parent instead of abandoning her right away.
Afterwards, Riya shook her head.
She didn’t want to talk with Mrs. Thompson again.
Mrs. Thompson looked at Riya’s back blankly. For some reasons, the sentence that Riya said seemed to hit her.
Has she ever treated Riya as her daughter?
For a moment, Mrs. Thompson wanted to recall the past.
But the next moment, she tossed those thoughts away. No matter what, Riya is biologically her daughter and Mrs. Thompson would never let this chance passed.
Unfortunately, Riya sped up and it would be impossible for Mrs. Thompson to chase after Riya.
That is if Riya is not blocked.
"Why are you here?" Riya looked at Ciera, who was standing in front of her, and frowned deeply.
