Chapter 2068
Stella froze for a moment as if she understood. But she did not.
Felicity spoke even more straightforwardly, "What my mom meant was that we must have
a child. If Stinky Cucumber can't give me a child, then my mom will never agree to our
relationship, no matter what.
"She needs someone to inherit her 'throne'. I'm not up to the task, so she plans to have a
little successor."
Stella was speechless.
'It seems like our roles are switched,' she thought. Then, she asked bewilderedly, "What
'throne' does your mom have?"
Felicity hesitated for a moment before pointing at the Deron Supermart at the side. "Can
you see that supermarket over there?"
Stella glanced over, looked at it, and thought, 'What does one of the top ten supermarket
chains in the country have to do with her mom?'

Then, she heard Felicity continuing, "She founded Deron Supermart. Also, she has a lot of
vegetable and fruit plantations, livestock breeding bases, various beverage and meat
processing factories..."
Stella was so shocked that she could not utter a word.
Felicity was always so low-key and even more financially savvy than her. Stella had always
thought that she came from an average working-class family and never considered that
she might be a secret wealthy heiress.
Looking back, Stella noticed some signs. For instance, Felicity always had a Deron
shopping card, and the products there were not cheap. While she hesitated when
shopping elsewhere, she hardly ever checked prices at Deron.
Also, on one of Stella's birthdays, she gifted her a shopping card from Deron Supermart
worth five thousand dollars. However, Stella did not dare to accept it as she thought
Felicity was drunk and had mistakenly reloaded the wrong amount.
Moreover, when Dahlia froze Stella's card, and she urgently needed to pay Rainee's
medical fees, Felicity gave her a million dollars in no time.
Stella did not think much of it when Felicity said she got the money from her friend.
Later, she realized that one million was not a small amount, and given how urgent it was,
even a good friend would need to consider the other party's ability to repay such a large
sum.
So, Stella figured Felicity most likely got the money from her family.

Stella massaged her temples, still digesting the news of her best friend suddenly
becoming the heiress of Deron Supermart. ’Hold up, why are you putting yourself through
the hardships of a regular person when your family is so rich?"
Felicity frowned. 'My mom is rich, not me. She never wanted me to come to Rivera. She
wanted me to stay in our hometown after graduation to take over her business. But I know
what I’m capable of, and I simply can't do business.
"We had a huge fight because we had different opinions, so she stopped giving me
allowance right after I graduated. You know very well I can never stand to be treated like
this, so I told her that I won't go back home until I become a successful scriptwriter!"
The period right after graduating was the toughest for Felicity. Stella had helped her a lot
during this time. Back then, she had just married into the Kane family and was treading on
thin ice in the house. However, when Felicity asked for her help, she did not hesitate to
use her savings to help her out of her predicament.
Over the years, although Felicity had not achieved anything remarkable, she got herself a
stable job. She was already very happy that she got to work in the industry she loved and
had a friend like Stella.
Stella was speechless. "You could've lived like a princess, yet you chose to be a corporate
slave?"
Felicity said, "My mom was deeply hurt by her previous relationship and felt that nothing
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmin this world can be relied upon except money. This is why she works so hard to make
money. But deep down, she knows that money alone can't do everything.
"Especially toward kids, money can breed laziness and discourage ambition. So, she would
always give me just enough for my living expenses. When I was in school, I boasted to my
classmates that I could get anything from Deron for free.
"When I got home that day, my mom chased me with a broom for two miles and gave me
a two-hour lecture I'd never forget. She's afraid that having money will have a bad
influence, so she's been very strict with my finances.
"As time passed and she realized I became independent, she became worried about other
things. When Stinky Cucumber lied to me about being impotent back then, I tested my
mom by asking if she could accept it if I didn't have any children. This is probably why she
immediately connected the dots herself and made that request.
"She wants a child to inherit our family business, but I know that is not her main concern.
My cousins are doing very well in the company, and my mom has also been gradually
delegating authority. Since I don't have any siblings, she's just worried that I might be
alone if something were to happen to her."
Although Stella disagreed with using one's perspective as a parent to force their children
into marriage and having children, she could understand it from Florence's point of view.
It was impossible for a mother not to worry about her child as long as she was still
breathing.
