CHAPTER 516

Anika met with Amy today to tell her not to have any delusions about marrying her son.

She wanted to make Amy realize the difficulty and give up, but she didn't expect Amy to tell her that the latter had already broken up with her son.

She didn't believe a word of it.

Having caught a rich man, a poor girl like Amy would definitely hold on tight and never let go.

How could Amy agree to break up with her son? NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

There must be some conspiracy going on!

Anika suddenly thought of something and looked down at Amy's belly.

Her originally cold and sharp gaze became even sharper. "Are you pregnant? Are you carrying my son's child and thinking that you can marry my son?"

She slammed the table. "Stop dreaming! Even if you give birth to the child, our family will not acknowledge it! In Dusktown, illegitimate children have the lowest status. If you give birth to him, you will only make him suffer and hate you. You won't get anything!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Amy's face turned red with anger. "I haven't married Noah yet. We are completely innocent. No one got pregnant with his child!"

"Mrs. Ellis, please be careful with your words." Madeline patted Amy's arm, comforting Amy. "Mrs. Ellis,

my client and your son haven't gotten married yet. Your words just now were an insult to her. Please apologize to her."

"Your client?" Anika was confused.

"Yes," Madeline said. "Amy is injured, and her brother entrusted her to me to take care of her. So, Amy is my client."

"Amy? Ha!" Anika sneered. "Just listen to this name, Amy. Just based on this name, she is not qualified to marry into our family! Everyone knows that Amy is too common a name. How can the future daughter-in-law of our family have such a name?"

Amy was speechless.

What did her name do to offend anyone?

In the eyes of Noah's mother, even her name, Amy, was wrong!

She didn't know what to say.

She suddenly thought of a saying: If someone disliked a person, that person would even be blamed for breathing.

Amy couldn't help but be grateful again that she had decided to break up with Noah. Otherwise, even if Noah didn't have an ex-girlfriend, even if she and Noah were in love, with a mother-in-law like this, she wouldn't lead a good life in the future!

"Maddie, let's go back," she didn't want to waste any more time with Noah's mother.

"Wait, explain yourself." She wanted to leave, but Anika didn't want to let her go so easily. "Amy, explain yourself. Did you really get pregnant with my son's child?"

"Please stop insulting me," Amy said angrily. "Noah and I haven't gotten married yet. We are completely innocent. Nothing has happened. How could I be pregnant with your son's child?"

"Is that so?" Anika's gaze swept over Amy a few times. Then, she suddenly covered her mouth and laughed. "You look pretty, and I thought you were quite capable. But you've been with my son for a while, and he hasn't even touched you. You're not that capable after all! Of course, the biggest reason why you couldn't be intimate with my son is that he is a gentleman. Otherwise, you probably would have succeeded."

Amy's scalp went numb with anger.

What does she mean? she thought.

Was Anika saying that Amy and Noah hadn't been intimate with each other because Noah was a gentleman, and he wasn't interested in her body? That even if Amy tried her best to seduce Noah, she couldn't succeed?

Was this woman crazy?

All men in the world were the same. How could Noah not want to be intimate with her?

It was she who insisted on not being intimate with Noah.

She was a very reserved girl. Every time Noah wanted to get close to her, she would refuse.

She had told Noah more than once that her first time had to be on their wedding night as she wouldn't give her body to any man before marriage.

Amy had her principles and Noah was dissatisfied after each failed attempt and refused to talk to her for a few days.

She never criticized girls who cohabited before marriage, but she herself insisted on choosing the lifestyle that she wanted. The lifestyle that she wanted was to spend her first time with her husband on their wedding night. She did not want to give herself away before marriage.

Even though Noah had expressed his dissatisfaction by giving her the cold shoulder each time, he always compromised in the end since she stood by her principles.

But now, when Noah's mother put it like that, it was as if Amy and Noah had never gotten intimate because Noah wasn't interested in her body, and that she failed to seduce Noah.

This woman was either crazy or had been pampered for too long, making her delusional, thinking that the whole world should revolve around her and her son. She probably thought that girls like Amy, who came from a poor background, should be their slaves and have no thoughts or will of their own.

What a joke!

Amy was so angry that she drank more than half a cup of water, desperately trying to calm herself

down so that she wouldn't lose control and splash the water in the cup at Noah's mother's face.

"Please stop insulting me," Amy said angrily. "Noah and I haven't gotten married yet. We are completely innocent. Nothing has happened. How could I be pregnant with your son's child?"

Although Noah's mother was unreasonable, she was still older than Amy. Amy was a well-educated and exemplary young woman, so she should not do inappropriate things like splashing water at an older person.

After drinking the water, Amy felt much calmer. She spoke to Noah's mother, "Your son has tried to get intimate with me several times, but I rejected him. I am a very reserved girl. No matter who my future husband is, my first time has to be on our wedding night. So, you don't have to worry about me being pregnant with your son's child because nothing has happened between us! And also, let me repeat myself one last time. I really hate your son now. I have already broken up with him. The best outcome for me and your son is to never see each other again! After you go back, please convey this message to your son when you pass him the gift he gave me!"

"What kind of trick are you playing?" Anika didn't believe a word Amy said.

She didn't believe that this poor girl would be willing to give up her son, who was a handsome and wealthy man.

Moreover, her son was not an ordinary handsome and wealthy man.

The Ellis Family was prestigious in Dusktown. Not only was her son handsome, but he was also highly talented and capable.

Countless women were crazy for her son. It was probably a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for a poor girl like Amy to be able to hook up with a man of his caliber.

She didn't believe that Amy would be willing to give up.

Amy was speechless.

She was sure that Noah's mother was crazy!

Or at least, there had to be something wrong with Anika mentally. Otherwise, there was no reason she couldn't understand what Amy said.

Amy had explained it very clearly, but it seemed like Noah's mother didn't understand a single word.

She took a few deep breaths and was about to say something when Madeline held her arm.

Madeline smiled and shook her head at Amy, then turned her gaze to Anika. "Mrs. Ellis, you're overthinking. With Amy's identity, she has no reason to play tricks on you."

"Her identity?" Anika laughed as if she had heard the biggest joke in history. "What identity does she have? The daughter of a mechanic? Are you trying to make me laugh?"

Madeline smiled. "Mrs. Ellis, I heard you criticize Amy's name just now, saying that her name doesn't sound good and she is not worthy of being the daughter-in-law of your family. But did you know that the economist your maternal family hired was not originally named Ewan Bennett, but Ewan Atkinson instead?"
