The Rebirth Of Mr Rich's Sweet Actress Wife

Chapter 7: Lured

"Deanna, you have no one else to turn to. I'm your mom, and I’m the only family you have. Hatred would never last long between us. Just ask them to let me go." Seeing that she was about to be taken away, Eva desperately tried to get sympathy from Deanna.

Deanna was expressionless. She had seen all the hatred in Eva's eyes. Back then, I had knelt to beg her, but she didn't show any sympathy.

She and Ronnie worked together to destroy me.

Deanna tightened her grip on Eva's wrist and said with a smile, "Mom, you're too old for the life in the prison. If you're sent to prison now, I'm afraid that you won't be able to take it."

Eva heaved a sigh of relief. She sneered in her heart. Sure enough, Deanna hasn't changed. She's still easily fooled.

"So, I'll go home and prepare some daily necessities for you. I hope that you can start a new life in prison. Good luck!" After that, she gave a push on Eva's wrist. Her eyes were full of disgust.

Eva was unwilling to let her go. She scratched the back of Deanna's hand with her sharp nails, leaving several red marks. She gnashed her teeth and said, "Deanna, what is the condition for you to let me go?"

She couldn’t figure out why her silly and obedient daughter would be a totally different person overnight.

Deanna slapped Eva’s hands off in disgust. Ignoring the scratches on the back of her hand, she said coldly, "You'll either go to jail or break off all relations with me."

Break off all relations with her?

Eva was stunned. In the past few years, we survived by supporting each other. Although Deanna lived a hard life, she never gave up getting my recognition.

Why does she want to leave me now? Does she no longer need my love for her?

"Deanna, I know that you must feel aggrieved. Don't be upset. When we get home, I will make amends to you and cook your favorite tomato soup."

However, Deanna didn't compromise as Eva had expected. Instead, she felt more disgusted. "Mrs. Lance, tomato soup has been YOUR favorite, not mine."

They had lived together for twenty years, but Eva didn't know what Deanna's favorite dish was. She had never cared about Deanna.

Eva set aside her gentleness. Her face turned livid. "Are you really going to break off the relations with me? Deanna, you should know that you have no one but me."

"As I said, if you want me to drop the case, just get out of my life. From now on, you’re not allowed to meet me, ever!"

Deanna didn't cry or get sad. She looked extremely calm.

Looking at her, Christian felt quite sorry for her. How huge the pain should be to make Deanna kick her mother out of her world.

However, all Deanna was thinking about was her plan.

Eva was Ronnie's lackey. Deanna wouldn't let this ticking bomb stay with her.

Moreover, Eva was Ronnie’s birth mother. Even if she was put in prison, she would be released with Ronnie's help. If Deanna kept living with Eva, it would be very inconvenient for her to stab Ronnie in the back.

Thus, Deanna took this opportunity to get Eva out of her life completely. She didn’t want any trouble from Eva ever in the future.

At this time, Deanna looked so indifferent. She didn't give Eva any chance to explain or beg.

"How about this? You'll write an agreement in front of the police and Mr. Godfrey. We'll sign it then and go to court to validate it. Otherwise, I will go to the prison every month to visit you, old ma’am!"

This little b***h is threatening me?

Eva hated that people said she was old. But now Deanna said it on purpose. It really pissed Eva off.

"So you really want to experience the colorful life in the prison, right? Officer, I need to report..."

"Wait, I'll sign it." Isn't it just an agreement to break off our relationship? Well, Deanna has never been my real daughter anyway.

Eva was quite angry. She stamped her feet hard. Then, she wrote an agreement in the police station and threw it to Deanna.

Now Eva even stopped pretending to be kind and righteous. She said sarcastically, "Let me tell you this again, Deanna. Without me, life would be very hard for you. You’ll have to rely on your own ability for everything happened in the future."

She doesn't even have a house to live in.

Deanna looked at the agreement with satisfaction. She rolled her eyes at Eva. "Have you ever raised me properly? Don't you feel ashamed when you said that?"

Eva had never wanted to raise Deanna properly. She just considered Deanna as a cash cow.

To make some money and humiliate Deanna, when Deanna was eight or nine years old, Eva asked her to pretend to be disabled so that she could beg for money on the street. The experience of being humiliated was unforgettable to Deanna.

Eva stared fiercely at Deanna. Now she felt furious. Deanna dared to break off all relations with me. Charles is now taken away by the police. What should Ronnie do with today's audition?

Ronnie has asked me to prevent Deanna from going to the audition.

Deanna's most precious pair of shoes are at home. Although I don't know why she likes it so much, I might use it to stop her from auditioning.

Deanna had guessed Eva's thoughts. She deliberately kept silent. Just as Eva was about to leave, she raised her voice.

"Don't you touch my stuff. Otherwise, I'll sue you."

As soon as she finished her words, people around her looked at Eva disdainfully. Eva gritted her teeth. Vicious light flashed through her eyes.

"Who cares about your useless stuff?"

At the entrance of the police station, Deanna looked up at the azure sky. She hadn't enjoyed such beautiful scenery for a long time.

It's so good to be alive.

Thinking of what happened to Charles just now, she smiled happily. This scum had destroyed many girls in my previous life. Most of them could do nothing to him because of his power.

I didn't expect that I would be able to put him in prison so fast. I've made things right now.

Three minutes later, a Bentley stopped at the entrance of the police station. The car was as fancy and beautiful, faintly showing the supreme prestige of its owner.

It must be Christian's car.

Deanna pursed her lips and bowed sincerely. "Sorry to have troubled you, Mr. Godfrey. I've wasted so much of your time."

He was the first person to be nice to her after her rebirth.

"That is okay." Christian shook his head. "I got to watch a good show for free."

Deanna is a very smart woman. I think that what happened today is just a part of her plan.

"If you need my help, please feel free to call me." Christian must be a big shot. Although there will be no more interactions between us, I still need to express my gratitude.

Unexpectedly, Christian narrowed his eyes. He said with a bright smile, "Well, I will. I hope that you'll come to help me as long as I need you."

As he said that, he grabbed her phone and input his private number.

Why do I feel that I've stepped into a trap?

Deanna watched Christian as he left. Somehow, she took out the business card in her bag and felt it. She thought of his name in her mind - Christian Godfrey. She had never heard of this person in her previous life, but she had heard of the Godfrey family.

The member of this family were all big shots. It was an influential family with a history of a hundred years. Compared with it, the Shaw family was way too weak.

Deanna chuckled. She thought that she should not be so lucky enough to get to know a member of the Godfrey family so easily. Just then, her phone rang and she picked it up.
