Chapter 36 Curse
Chapter 36 Curse
Miranda looked at Patricia involuntarily and thought she must scold Benjamin fiercely due to his bold
tone. To her surprise, Patricia gave Benjamin a thumbs-up. Seeing this scene, Miranda almost fainted
for anger.
Patricia rumpled Benjamin’s head and then gave him a thumbs-up. She said, “Good job, my baby. Who
have taught you to curse at someone without any rude words?”
Benjamin shrugged his shoulder and said, “Well, I don’t want to use any dirty words to curse at such
kind of people.”
Patricia chuckled and said, “Great! You are really fantastic.”
Miranda knew that Patricia was determined to stay Midfort, so she gritted her teeth and finally knelt
down on the ground with a painful face.
“Patricia, please. Could you promise to leave Midfort forever? Just take it as a pay for the life I have
given to you.”
Looking at Miranda kneeling down again, Patricia’s face showed no mercy eventually.
She looked at Miranda coldly and then squatted next to her. “Mrs. Coleman, it’s the second time that
you kneel down to me as a senior. Does Lydia know what you have done for her?”
Miranda went blank for a moment and then gritted her teeth. “It doesn’t matter if she knows or not. I
only want her to live a happy life.”
With an ironic smile showed up in the corner of her mouth, Patricia said, “You devote yourself to Lydia.
You care about her happiness and pay no attention to other people, including yourself.”
Hearing Patricia’s words, Miranda felt some hope in her heart and said, “So, you...”
Her words were interrupted by Patricia.
Patricia said in an increasingly loud voice, “So I would like to learn from you. I am alone and the only
one I would like to pay attention to is myself. I won’t care about anyone else. So, I won’t care about
you. Do you understand? Mrs. Coleman.”
Hearing what Patricia said, Miranda went blank for a moment. Then her face turned red and angry in a
minute.
“Patricia, how could you become so conscienceless? What you have said is so inhumane. I am your
mother, and I even kneel down to you. But you just refuse my requirement. You promised to leave here
forever last time.”
Patricia stood up from the ground with an indifferent smile and said, “I made the promise last time
because you were my mother. But now, you are not my mother any more. Three years have passed,
and now you are just a stranger to me. So, I don’t need to aggrieve myself for a stranger.”
Miranda fell down to the ground.
After three years, Patricia changed completely. She was no longer kind and soft-hearted but cold.
Miranda stood up from the ground slowly with grievance disappeared on her face. She became
arrogant suddenly.
“Patricia, it must be very hard for you to take care of a baby on your own. You don’t have a job or a
husband. You must be short of money. What’s more, when your baby is ready to receive education, you
will need more money. I really worry about you.”
Patricia’s eyes squinted, but she said nothing as if waiting for Miranda’s next words.
Miranda continued, “Well, I can give you money. And I can support you to open a store, which is
enough for you to make a living. But you should leave Midfort and never go back.”
Patricia’s hands held together and then she applauded. “You are really willing to spend large sums of
money to ensure that I leave Midfort. I don’t know why you cling to the aim.” She moved her eyes and
continued, “I can tell you clearly that I will feed my baby well. He will have what others have. You don’t
need to worry about this. In addition, from the very beginning, I despised you and your money. And I
will continue to despise your money in the future.”
“I will never leave Midfort. Mrs. Coleman, you can drop the idea now.”
After finishing her words, Patricia held Benjamin’s hands. It was apparent that she did not want to talk
with Miranda any more.
“Baby, let’s go home.”
Benjamin nodded his head seriously and said, “Mom, you should disinfect your face after going back
home.”
The meaning of his words was apparent. Patricia was about to leave. Miranda gritted her teeth and
said, “Patricia, you’d better leave Midfort now. You will have a hard time when your dad decides to deal
with you.”
Though Miranda’s voice was loud enough to be heard, Patricia didn’t stop her steps. She was
determined to stay here and no one could change her mind.
Benjamin squinted his big and smart eyes gradually and thought to himself, mom’s family members
were really lousy.
Although what Miranda said was cold, Patricia would never care about it after three years. She had
little expectation of her family.
Benjamin stopped gradually. Patricia looked at him in confusion and asked, “Baby, what’s up? Are you
too tired to go any further? Let me carry you away.” Benjamin stood there and shook his head but he
opened his arms to Patricia. “Mom, hug me.”
Patricia shook her head in confusion, but still squatted and held his little body. She patted on
Benjamin’s back and said, “What’s wrong? Do I scare you today?” Benjamin shook his head slightly
and then said, “Nope, mom is cool. But you said that you were alone, which was not right. I have been
with you and will always be with you.”
After these words, Benjamin patted on Patricia’s back with a serious face.
Patricia went blank for a moment and then held Benjamin tightly. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“Yes, my baby has always been with me. I shouldn’t have said that.” Benjamin touched Patricia’s head
and said, “Mom, did that old woman bully you? No, I should ask if the whole Coleman Family used to
bully you.”
Patricia stared blankly and the scenes of her childhood and teenage life appeared in her mind,
including assaults from her dad when she was pregnant.
She could not help trembling, but then smiled gently at Benjamin. “The past is the past. I will be strong
and powerful from now on so that other people will never be able to bully me. In this way, I will protect
you well, won’t I?”
