Chapter 160

Seeing more and more people gathering around, Eliza got even louder with her accusations. Serena watched her like she was some kind of joke.

“What a heartless woman! She doesn’t act like a mother at all,” one parent said, pointing and whispering.

“I know, right? Just watching that poor kid cry breaks my heart. If you don’t want kids, then don’t have them.”

Serena’s expression didn’t change as she listened to all the chatter around her. ‘After everything I’ve been through, does Eliza really think I’ll just stand here and let myself get framed again?‘ she thought.

“I wouldn’t dare call myself his mother,” Serena said clearly. “You came between us from the start, spoiling him rotten. He decided you were the good guy and threw tantrums to get his dad to divorce me.”

Everyone around them was shocked to hear this. Leon was still just a little kid, so he couldn’t hide his feelings very well–especially since everything she said was true. His face went red with guilt, and he even stopped crying for a moment.

“Oh, so that’s what really happened! What kind of kid does something like that?” someone murmured.

“Yeah, that’s just heartless.”

The crowd was starting to figure out the truth. The woman who’d been so confidently pointing fingers was actually the homewrecker, and the kid beside her was nothing but an ungrateful brat.

“Mom, I know I was wrong.” Leon looked at Serena pleadingly, but she already knew exactly what he was thinking. The rose–colored glasses had finally come off, and Leon was starting to see Eliza’s true colors.

Now, Leon was remembering how Serena used to be there for him every single moment, genuinely caring for him and protecting him.

‘Leon doesn’t actually want me as his mother. He wants a full–time nanny like I used to be,‘ Serena thought.

“Come on, let’s go, Alyssa. Don’t be scared,” Serena said gently to the little girl in her arms. But Alyssa wasn’t actually afraid anymore because she knew Serena was protecting her. She was safe now.

Seeing all the disgusted looks from the people around them, Eliza felt completely humiliated. She shoved Leon’s back and said, “See? Serena doesn’t want you anymore.”

Leon just snorted coldly in response.

“I’m sorry for everything I did to you before. Now we’re a real family,” Eliza said, pulling Leon closer and trying to win back his affection. But Leon wasn’t buying it anymore.

“Who says we’re family? Mom and I are the real family!” Leon clenched his little fists. “I’m going to win Mom back in the competition today.” He walked into the kindergarten step by step, completely ignoring Eliza behind him.

Eliza’s face turned dark with anger. ‘That ungrateful little brat,’ she thought.
