Warning My Mommy is A Savage

Chapter 232

One could tell right away that it was her in the painting.

Charmine then began, “Momo, what if we don’t-”

Before she could finish her sentence, Chris chirped, “I’ll get this sorted right away, Mommy! See you later!” With that, he swiftly ran away with his two tiny legs.

Charmine could only sigh. That little boy…

Nevermind. She never came across any visitor since the day she lived in this mansion, and Momo did say that his grandparents did not like him. Perhaps it was unlikely for them to visit.

She regained her composure and started prepping for the night’s Night of Glory. Although she had 10 hours till then, with her formal gown, she had to complement it with a nice hairstyle and pick matching accessories and shoes to show her respect for Mr. Kingston’s hard work.

After the meal, April came toward her with a box at hand. “Ms. Jordan, Mr. Bailey told me to take charge of your styling today.”

Charmine did all she could to avoid Anthony after their morning incident, but it surprised her how considerate he was to her still.

While April was the top assistant working for Anthony, she specialized in servicing the upper class, including styling. Her styling would be presentable.

Charmine sat before the mirror. “Thanks.”

April started working on her hairstyle.

Not long after, Charmine’s phone on the desk lit up, and the caller ID displayed, (Mom). Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

It was Joey, and she was calling her.

Although Joey never treated her as a daughter nor did Charmine treat her as her actual mother, she still had to set her contact name as ‘Mom’to prevent the family members from discovering her plan.

Charmine picked up the phone and monotonously began, “Anything?”

“Charmine, where have you been staying lately? I went to Violet Villa and I couldn’t find you.” Joey’s tone was unusually caring.

Joey, after her conversation with her husband Adam the other day, went to look for Charmine. Try as she might, Joey could not find Charmine.

Charmine’s eyes seemingly gleamed at Joey’s words, but she merely came up with a random excuse, “Other property. You can contact me if it needs me.”

“It’s nothing urgent. I just want to ask if you’d like to come and live with us? You’re a Jordan after all, and it’s not too appropriate if you’re living alone,” stated Joey.

The last thing Charmine expected was to hear Joey inviting her to live with them. She still remembered how Joey and Adam asked the bodyguards to send her away on the first day she came back. There was a flash of contempt in Charmine’s eyes as she calmly replied, “My apologies, but I don’t plan to go back anytime soon. As my mother, I’m sure you’re aware of how everyone back there hates an adopted daughter like myself. To avoid any potential conflict, it’s better for me to live alone.”

At a loss for words, Joey could only let out a sigh. Even if she and Adam had accepted Charmine, the others might not have done so. After thinking for some time, she continued,” Hmm… Charmine, can I please ask for a favor from you? The Jordan family had some connections with Night of Glory’s

organizers, and you’ll for sure receive some awards tonight. I was hoping that you’d be able to say some nice things about your sister when you’re being interviewed and receiving the awards on stage. Please don’t criticize her even more…”

Charmine’s eyes dulled at this. That was the real reason why Joey called, was it not? Tiffany committed terrible deeds, yet Joey still tried to help her?

Speaking of connections, Charmine could still win the awards even if the Jordans had no connections with them.

Joey seemed to have sensed her displeasure, thus she sighed. “I know Tiffany’s made bad choices, and she’s not to be forgiven. For that, I’ve transferred her five-percent share to your Dad as punishment. Also, her head is considerably injured, and she’s still in a coma. She has paid enough… I still hope you can forgive her a little.”

Charmine frowned. So they did take back the five percent of her share? This would piss Tiffany off so badly! With only another five percent left under her name, she had almost no say in the Jordan family. What else could she do about this?

Charmine’s lips curled up faintly. “I can speak a few words for her in front of the media, under one condition.” “What’s the condition?” Joey asked right away.
