Chapter441
Evangeline pointed at Julio behind her and said, “You’re still
speaking up for her? Look who she came with. Terrence, you
have no shame, and the McConnell family still cares about their
reputation.”
Terrence just then noticed Julio standing nearby.
At this moment, the carousel stopped, and Julio was waving at
Bethany and Shyla.
Terrence said coldly, “Don’t say that in front of the kid.”
Bethany led Shyla out from inside.
Shyla knew Emery was there, so she called out, “Emery.“”
Then he called out, “Uncle Terrence, Aunt Evangeline, you’re both here! Do you want to play together?”
Kids didn’t know all the rights and wrongs between adults,
Shyla just followed the basic manners adults usually taught and
said hi to them.
Bethany knew the Duarte and McConnell families got along
well, so it was normal for Shyla to talk to them, and she couldn’t

stop Shyla from talking to them just because of her own
reasons.
Emery saw Shyla call him, so he ran over, but he didn’t talk to
Shyla. Instead, he looked up at Bethany.
While calling for mom, I went to hold Bethany’s hand. Bethany
picked Shyla up instead, not letting Emery hold her hand.
She said to Shyla, “Shyla, you just said you wanted to ride the
roller coaster again, let’s go now!”
“But it seemed like Emery really wanted to come too, so let’s
take him with us.”
Bethany smiled gently, “He had his dad and his aunt, but Shyla
only had me. Today I was just spending time with Shyla, okay?”
Shyla thought about it too, Uncle Terrence and Aunt
Evangeline were both there, so Emery was taken care of.
“Okay, let’s go.” Then Shyla waved at Emery, “Emery, we’re
heading over first.”
Bethany didn’t even look at Emery. When she was about to
leave with Shyla, Emery suddenly grabbed Bethany’s sleeve.
Bethany paused and looked back.

Emery’s tears were welling up in her eyes.
“Mom, I was your real son. How could you only want Shyla and
not me!”
He was so sad.
It felt like I was suffocating in my chest.
Since he was little, he had never felt this bad.
Bethany answered coldly, “You wanted someone else to be your
mom, go be someone else’s son, I don’t have a son like you.”
After she finished speaking, Bethany let out a sigh of relief,
gently brushed Emery’s hand away, and was about to leave
when Evangeline rushed over in a few quick steps and raised.
her hand to slap Bethany.
When they were about to be thrown off, Julio stepped forward
and stood in front of Bethany and Shyla.
Terrence also quickly went over; he was standing in front of
Evangeline.
So, Evangeline’s slap landed firmly on Terrence’s face.
