The Billionaire’s Temporary Bride

Chapter 53 What a Hypocrite



“What should I do?”

Rorey covered her face and cried, “Mom, I just want to be happy. Why is it so difficult?”

“Rorey, don’t cry. I will talk to Yunis for you.”

Xenia was furious and was about to call Yunis.

However, Rorey stopped her and cried miserably, “Mom, it’s useless. I have nothing and they won’t take me seriously. Do you understand? I need the 20% shares now. As long as I get the shares, the Jis won’t look down on me. Do you know?”

“I know. I know. Stop crying, sweetheart. I will find a way for you. Go to bed and get some sleep. I’ll call Yunis, and then talk to your dad about the 20% shares.”

Xenia comforted Rorey and immediately called Yunis.

On the phone, Xenia gave a heart-wrenching performance. She cried loudly and hoarsely, “Yunis, where are you? Come over here quickly. Rorey wants to get an abortion. What happened to you guys? Why would Rorey be in despair?”

“What?”

Yunis was shocked, “Tell her to stay at home. I’ll be right there.”

After hanging up the phone, Xenia gave Rorey a sign to tell her to be at ease. Then, she went to the study.

Seneca was reading some documents in the study. When he heard the knock on the door, he answered, “Come in.”

Xenia brought in a cup of ginseng tea. When Seneca saw her, he asked indifferently, “Did Rorey calm down?”

“Yeah. She went crazy for a while.”

Xenia put the ginseng tea on the desk, and then moved around behind Seneca and massaged his shoulders.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Seneca was cool and he said, “She is an adult. Tell her to stop being so willful. Since she is a member of the Jis, she should not act recklessly.”

“Rorey was not willful. The Jis is wealthy. They look down on Rorey and her humble background. Seneca, you know that Rorey treats you as her biological father and respects you. You said that once Rorey got married, you would give her 20% shares as her dowry.”

Xenia added, “Rorey finally got married. I have done a lot for the Tangs without complaint for many years. For the sake of my hard work, could you give her the shares now? In this way, she won’t be humble in the Jis. This is the only thing I, as her mother, can do for her.”

Xenia tried to persuade Seneca, showing her image as a loving mother.

As always, her request was rejected by Seneca. He said, “I told you not to mention this anymore. I will give her the shares when the time comes, as I promised. But until then, I can’t give her. In addition, the majority of the Tang Group’s shares were inherited by Rosiley. Rosiley’s mother left her the shares. The 20% shares which I want to give Rorey need Rosiley’s consent. However…”

Seneca stopped and glanced at Xenia, the he continued, “According to the grudge between Rosiley and Rorey, I think Rosiley might not agree.”

“Seneca, Rosiley is your biological daughter, and you have the right to use her shares. I don’t think it needs her consent.”

Xenia frowned and continued to persuade Seneca.

She knew that Rosiley hated them so much. Rosiley would not agree whatever they said.

“Xenia, I had told you. What’s Rosiley’s should stay hers. She should be calling the shots as to what to do with it. I know you don’t like Rosiley. I have gone further and further away from my daughter these years just for you. These shares are the only connections between us now. Do you want to destroy our relationship for good? Do you want to turn us against each other and never have a day of peace until my death?

At the end of his speech, Seneca raised his voice in anger.

Xenia was so frightened that she shrank, and she dared not say anything else.

She knew that Seneca was very unhappy about what she and Rorey did to Rosiley recently.

No matter how bad Rosiley’s relationship with Seneca was, they were still related by blood. And Xenia’s daughter, Rorey, could never take the place of Rosiley.

Xenia was helpless and resentful.

She thought her daughter should own the best. No matter what, she had to persuade Seneca to give Rorey the 20% shares.

Ever since Rosiley met Rorey in the restaurant, she was once again oppressed by Lonny.

She planned to finish changing the script in a month. However, Lonny ordered her to finish it in half a month.

Rosiley knew that what Payton said that night completely provoked Rorey. So Rorey was very angry and couldn’t wait to oppress her.

Rosiley’s pressure doubled and she was busier.

Yayoi was indignant. She gritted her teeth and said, “Rorey is such a bitch. She will be burnt in hell.”

Rosiley said calmly, “It doesn’t matter. I allow her to be arrogant for a few days. When I finish the project, I will have plenty of time to deal with her.”

“That bitch is very happy now. Photos of her doing charity are going viral every day, such as joining the stray animals association, volunteering at the nursing homes. What a sham!”

Yayoi said with a disdainful expression.

Rosiley’s eyes were cold and she asked, “Is she preparing to return to the entertainment industry?”

“That’s right. Hazel spoke for her on a show. She said that Rorey was making changes, and people would always realize and correct their mistakes. She said that we should be more magnanimous and forgive others for their mistakes.”

Yayoi rolled her eyes and added, “What she did is like a whore expecting a monument honoring her chastity. I think only her fans will buy her pretentious talk. She is a big phony, a hypocrite.”

“Seriously? When did Hazel become so kind and speak for Rorey?”

Rosiley was a little puzzled.

She knew very well that in the interview Hazel said that Rorey was an idiot.

Rosiley thought that Hazel didn’t spoke for Rorey because of favor.

However, she also thought that it was probably because of Yunis.
