“Ask her!Ask her what she told me on the phone!Ask her about the handbag she said you bought with the money from selling our daughter!Ethan,you’re not even human—you’re a monster!That’s your own daughter!”
I lunged forward,ready to fight him,but the bodyguard beside me gently stopped me.“Miss,no need to dirty your hands.”
Natalie hid behind him,adorably poking her head out.She didn’t show any trace of fear at all.Her face was full of smug pride.Her voice was soft.
“Jenna,how could you think Ethan would ever do that?Emma was just sent to a private summer camp as a surprise.You can’t believe every rumor you hear.Selling your daughter?How rude.”
She tugged at Ethan’s robe,her eyes pretending to glisten with tears.“Ethan,look…she must have misunderstood.”
Ethan quickly wrapped his arms around her,comforting her,before turning on me with a glare.
“Jenna,listen to yourself.Natalie is kind enough to explain things for you,but you?You storm in here without warning and make a scene.I’m done with you.”
“Summer camp?”I almost laughed,but it quickly broke into sobs.
