Chapter 84


    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 toe outside. Danna only


    wants to see her child. It’s uwful to stop her from doing so. Call Gavin and get him toe 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 toe 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 thest 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 shed 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 rtionship with Gavin. No children will resent their mothers for a lifetime. As


    long as you please him and be 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 ept 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 ns 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 rtions? There is only one way to fight back. Get behind Kingsley’s


    scandals and spread it out! Direct the focus of theizens toward him!”This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Finishing up, Danna hung up and tossed her phone onto the ground. Evidently, nothing was going in


    her favor.
