Chapter 6%
For a moment, there was silence all around. The whole world seemed to have been paused.}
After a brief moment of distraction, I heard the noisy shouts of the servants. They were originally standing aside to watch the excitement, but now they all ran over in panic.>
I was not seriously injured. The car turned at the last moment and crashed into the flowerbed on the side of the road. The scene was very tragic and Stephan was so scared that he was stunned.
No matter how bold and willful he was, he was just a ten–year–old child. He was frightened by this sudden change and burst into tears. He cried and hid behind me, holding the corner of my clothes and dared not open his eyes.
He cried, “I didn’t mean it. I just wanted to make a joke and scare you.“}]
“Mom, what should I do? Will I be arrested by the police? I’m so scared. Can you hug me…” he couldn’t stop crying.}
After waiting for eight years, I finally waited for Stephan to call me mom. But I didn’t expect it to be in such a scene.”
Sure enough, people would only regret after doing something wrong. Only when they were most helpless would they think of their
mothers.
I broke Stephan’s cold little hands.
“I’m not your mother,” I said firmly.”
In the past eight years, I had given all my sincerity to this child. I hoped he could be happy. I also hoped he could become a successful person. But it was hard to be a stepmother.}
As long as Stephan showed a little dissatisfaction, countless accusations would come. Either from Sonny’s relatives and friends, Monroe’s housekeepers or the servants. Anyone could accuse me.
Stephan bumped and bumped. Stephan cried and made a fuss. If he was not happy at all, I, the stepmother, would deliberately make things difficult for him. No one could see my efforts and no one understood my painstaking efforts.
Soon the sound of the ambulance interrupted my memories. Everyone hurriedly lifted the injured driver into the ambulance.}
Sonny stood behind me at some point, looking at me with a complicated expression. He said, “You are not injured.”}
I shook my head and pushed Stephan, who was crying silly, to his side. “I’m fine, you should pay more attention to your son. I know that the Monroe Family is powerful. No matter how bad he does, you have the ability to take care of him. But Mr. Monroe, will such a child really be able to take over the huge family business of the Monroe Family in the future?“>
Sonny missed his deceased wife and did not allow other children to be born. But he would rather find one substitute after another. He was unwilling to spend time and energy to take care of and educate the young son left by his deceased wife.
Stephan became what he was today, blamed me for not knowing how to educate children when I was young. It was even more blamed on Sonny, the father’s negligence.§
Sonny’s eyes trembled. After hesitating for a moment, he extended his hand to me.
“Meredith, you have indeed suffered a lot of grievances from what happened before. But Stephan is still young, he is still a child and cannot leave his mother’s care. Since he is willing to recognize you, you should go back with me. I promise you that from now on, I will educate him with you.” He explained.
Kenzie took off her coat and put it on me, deliberately revealing the ambiguous red marks all over her body.
She looked at me with a smile, “Meredith, don’t worry, I won’t make it difficult for you. In this family, you will always be the legal wife, I will be responsible for accompanying Sonny outside for social events and will not hinder your position.“}
The housekeeper and servants also stood up to persuade. “Madam, don’t be angry, you see that Mr. Monroe and Stephan have you in their hearts.”
