From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent (Anthea )

Chapter 418





"Hey everyone, I'm Gerard."

Gerard?

As Carole watched the young man on the TV, her heart felt like it was suddenly squeezed. In that moment, the pain was almost suffocating.

Was she seeing things?

Why did this boy resemble that man from her past so much?

Even his voice sounded identical.

Was he his child?novelbin

Neen years old.

If this really was his child, it would mean that when he was with her, he already had someone else.

For so many years.

Carole refused to believe this could be true.

And now, the truth was staring her in the face.

The wounds that had scabbed over were now torn open, bleeding anew.

Back then.

When Carole was giving birth.

Another woman, also heavily pregnant, came to her door.

She said.

She was carrying his child.

She also claimed they were engaged.

The woman lashed out at Carole.

Calling her a home-wrecker.

Calling her the other woman.

"Christopher is now my fiancé, soon to be my husband, the father of my child! I beg you! Please let Christopher go, give my child and me a home."

"Slut! You're nothing but trash! You've destroyed a home! The other woman!"

Carole couldn't believe Christopher Lindsay would lie to her.

She had waited for him.

From the nine months of pregnancy to the day of delivery, she waited a whole month.

But he vanished like he never existed.

Not even a letter.

After he disappeared.

That woman never showed up again.

If Gerard really was his child.

Then his mother must be that woman from back then.

Neen years old.

The age matched perfectly.

And this child, having achieved such excellence, must have had a happy life these years, right?

Carole closed her eyes, exhaling softly.

She didn't know why.

Seeing a child made her think so much.

Maybe this child had nothing to do with him after all?

Let it go!

Things that happened so long ago should be left in the past.

Carole adjusted her emotions and headed back to the kitchen. But as she turned, she regained her usual smile, joking and laughing with the staff as if that moment had never happened.

Meanwhile.

In Cloudcrest.

Perhaps it was a mother-son intuition,

It was broadcasting an interview with Carole.

"Hello, top student's mom, do you have any parenting advice to share with our viewers?"

Gerard was eating an apple.

Seeing Carole on TV.

He suddenly paused.

It was a strange feeling.

He clearly didn't know Carole, but he felt as if he had known this woman for a long time.

A bitter smile appeared on Gerard's lips.

He must be feeling the effects of growing up in a single-parent household.

Seeing anyone.

And thinking that person could be his mom.

How could it be so coincidental?

Just turning on the TV and the person inside being his biological mother?

"Meow." The chubby cat in his arms seemed to sense its owner's mood and meowed.

Gerard stroked the cat's head.

Edna Fletcher walked in and saw this scene on the TV.

Who was that on the TV?

Carole?

It was her!

Edna narrowed her eyes and stepped back, informing J、 "J, I saw Carole news."

swho

"What news could she possibly be on?" J scoffed.

A woman known for flings, how could she be on TV?

If she's on the news, it must be something scandalous!

Edna continued, "I'm not sure about the details, but look, Gerry is really sitting there watching!"

Gerard was watching?

J panicked!

She absolutely couldn't let Gerard see Carole!

She couldn't let Gerard suspect anything!

Gerard was her eldest grandson, and he had nothing to do with that wretched woman Carole!

She didn't deserve to be Gerard's mother!

Frenzied, J called out, "Delia! Delia!"

"I'm here, ma'am."

J tried to keep her voice low, "Quick! Have someone turn off the power!"

"Right away!" Delia hurried off to do just that.
