Chapter 84 Everything Is An Act
“Mom!”
Danna tugged on Vivian’s sleeve, urging her to stop. Then, she turned to Edwin and apologized, “Edwin,
my mother is too anxious. Do forgive her. We only wanted to take a look at Gavin, just for a little while.”
Danna looked down as she choked back her tears. “What I did was wrong. I came here to apologize.
Please let me see him, Edwin!”
When she looked up again, her eyes were brimming with tears, looking extremely pitiful.
Edwin would have believed her if he didn’t witness her cruelty in the past.
He uttered coldly, “Ms. Adams, Gavin is reluctant to meet you as he was deeply hurt. You should stay
away from him for the time being if you really do care about him.”
Vivian interjected, “Nonsense! Gavin would never treat his mother like that! Undoubtedly, all of you have
been discrediting Danna in front of him. Otherwise, Gavin would have forgiven her ages ago! It must be
your own intention to forbid them from seeing each other!”
She paused for a moment and added, “Fine! If we can’t go in, tell Gavin to come outside. Danna only
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwants to see her child. It’s unlawful to stop her from doing so. Call Gavin and get him to come outside
right now!”
Edwin was annoyed by her arrogance and scoffed inwardly. This isn’t the Adams residence. Who does
she think she is?
Danna continued begging, “Edwin, could you do us a favor by asking Gavin to come outside? I just want
to see him and talk for a little while. Then, I will leave at once.”
However, Edwin was unmoved. “Go away. What you are doing is in vain. Mr. Graham would be indignant
if he finds out that you came here to bother Gavin.”
After giving them the last warning, he turned around and headed inside.
There were several bodyguards guarding the entrance, preventing the mother and daughter duo from
entering.
Vivian was breathless with anger. “Let us in! You have no right to stop Danna from meeting her own
child! We will not leave unless we see Gavin!”
On the other hand, a glint of resentment flashed across Danna’s eyes as she stared at Edwin’s figure
that was retreating into the Graham residence.
I will make them pay for everything they have done!
“Going in seems impossible! What should we do, Danna? Why don’t you give Gavin a call?”
Vivian was pissed and desperate. If Danna can’t make up with Gavin, she’ll be ruined. Not to mention,
the impact on our family business will be grave!
“Mom, Gavin isn’t answering!”
Danna gritted her teeth, fighting the chaos of her rage. She dragged Vivian back into the car as she
didn’t want anyone to witness the embarrassment.
“Seems like Benjamin is truly angered this time. How could you pinch Gavin so carelessly-”
Danna’s rage intensified when her mother began lecturing her.
“It’s all because of that brat! He used to stay silent even if I pinched him. He has been against me since
the day I came back. I didn’t expect him to cry that day. The next time I see him, I will-”
Vivian cut in, “Be careful! Don’t mess up again! We can’t rely on Benjamin anymore. The only way is for
you to maintain a good relationship with Gavin. No children will resent their mothers for a lifetime. As
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlong as you please him and become closer, Benjamin’s attitude toward us will naturally change too!”
Danna listened attentively to Vivian’s advice. Still, she was smoking with anger inside.
“I tried to treat him well, but he always behaved coldly toward me. I have never even seen him smile
before!”
Vivian sighed and uttered, “I told you to spend more time with him, but you refused to do so-”
Enraged, Danna spouted, “I never liked him since day one!”
“Calm down, now. Regardless of whether you like him or not, you must hide your emotions and act as if
you care for him. It is important for him to think that you love him even if it’s all fake! Someday, Gavin will
surely forgive you and accept you as his mother. If the conflict persists, you will lose both Gavin and
Benjamin! By then, our family will be doomed.”
Just then, Danna received a phone call from her manager, Jean Palmer.
“Danna, Kingsley hired a bunch of ghostwriters to discredit you. We can’t contain the situation any
longer. Do you have any plans to deal with Benjamin?”
“Why are you bothering me with every single issue? I paid all of you to do the work for me, so do I have
to teach you about public relations? There is only one way to fight back. Get behind Kingsley’s scandals
and spread it out! Direct the focus of the netizens toward him!”
Finishing up, Danna hung up and tossed her phone onto the ground. Evidently, nothing was going in her
favor.
