NovelEnglishChapter 625 Chapter 625: "Yes, she kept you out, but was she also able to keep you quiet?” Eileen had wanted to bring this up but hadn't known how. Now that Denise had mentioned it, she seized the opportunity.
Her words made Denise feel uneasy.

At that moment, Roderick's face turned cold. "What rumors? Mom, what have you done?" Denise quickly responded, "I haven't done anything wrong. I was just worried about Eileen. As Gabriela's grandmother, I needed to see Gabriela, so I dropped by. But Ruby shutout—" "And we had a quarrel. Perhaps the rumors started because Ruby was too haughty, and the neighbors couldn't stand her." "You know better than anyone what really happened." Aware of Denise's dishonesty, Eileen chose not to argue further. Instead, she warned, "If I hear those rumors again, I'll call the police. They'll find out who's behind them, and whoever it is could end up in jail for years." Denise felt fear upon hearing this. Roderick appeared angry, while Judie rolled her eyes at Denise.
Bryan remained silent next to Eileen, but his presence was impossible to ignore. To Denise, however, they were the younger generation, and she expected them to respect her.
Immediately, Denise said angrily, "You want to send your own mother to jail? Aren't you afraid of karma?" "You don't need to keep remindingyou're my mother. Are you trying to constantly remind yourself of our relationship?" Eileen replied. Hearing the word "mother" from Denise was absurd to her. It felt like Denise was trying to hurt her.
"I'm just telling the truth! I'm afraid you might forget it!" Denise said awkwardly. "Don't change the subject.

Seeing Eileen's anger, Denise didn't dare to argue further. She looked at Roderick and said, "I... I have my son. Do you think I need you? My son is earning money now, and Judie is pregnant. I plan to treat my grandson better than I've ever treated your daughter!" "Then you better remember what you just said," Eileen replied. She didn't feel saddened by Denise's words. After all, she never expected Denise to care for Gabriela. Gabriela already had a grandmother who truly cared for her-Ruby.
"Let's go," Bryan said, standing up and putting his arm around Eileen's shoulder.
