The Billionaire Ex-Wife and the Beggar He Became novel Chapter 445

Tiana walked like a little zombie, heading out the door without a single glance back. The three Nicholsons, snapping out of their shock, rushed after her.

Inside, only the Shepherds remained.

Henrietta sniffed. "That Tiana, so spoiled. She's happy to accept our love, but she won't accept the children Felicity brought with her. In a blended family, you can't just raise one side's children."

In the staff quarters, the three maids huddled together, whispering nervously.

"I may be new here, but it's obvious the cuckoo has taken over the nest. Look at how they've bullied the little princess; she's practically in a daze. Our princess is such a clean, chic little girl, and those two wild kids called her a beggar and said she was covered in lice. Is there any justice in the world?"

"Why is the master so spineless? Can't he just throw the Shepherds out?"

"Felicity is pregnant with his child. How can he throw out a pregnant woman carrying his baby?"

"Sigh…"

"I've been exhausted this past month since the Shepherds moved in. Henrietta demands to be waited on hand and foot. That old woman is just awful!"

The oldest maid, Sophie, suddenly began to weep. "It's karma. This is all karma…"

"The first wife was so good! She did the laundry, cooked, took care of the child—she did everything. The little princess was so well-cared for by her real mother. But… the whole family bullied that woman. And we damned maids… we bullied her too…"

"The little princess also bullied her own mother, siding completely with that wicked new wife. The poor woman just couldn't take it anymore in this house."

"Thinking back, things were so much better then. The first wife respected us. I've done more work in the one month this new wife has been here than in the twenty years before. These old bones… I have to kneel and massage that awful old woman's feet every day! I deserve this…"

She looked at her two precious grandchildren. "Then we can turn the little brat into a fool just for you two to play with. You can put a leash on her and keep her as a pet. When you're happy, you can even ride her like a horse."

"Mom, why do you hate that child so much?" Felicity asked with a smile.

"Don't you? Her mother nearly destroyed our entire family. And that little brat may say she loves you, but secretly she wants her real mother! She's an ungrateful wolf cub, born evil. If I don't get her under control for you, what if she grows up and makes trouble for you and your five children?"

Henrietta was always looking out for Felicity.

Felicity just smiled and said nothing. She took out her phone and called Julian.

He didn't answer.
