Chapter 430



.

Tanya didn’t know about Karl Moore.

She only knew they were about to go to trial with Hillary.

The next day was Monday. She took Mia and Brandon out to the garden as usual…. Since he had stayed with the Smiths the night before, Joel personally drove the three of them to kindergarten this morning.

At the door, Tanya was a little nervous. “I’ll get out of the car first. Don’t let the teachers see me.”

Joel stared at her in the driver’s seat. “What are you afraid of, or is it that you don’t want to be seen with Mia?”

Hearing this, Tanya immediately shook her head. “How can that be the case!”

She had just recognized her daughter and didn’t want to be separated from her for a moment.

Joel said, “Then be magnanimous and take your daughter to the garden!”.

“All right, then.”

Tanya nodded.

The car pulled up to the garden entrance. Brandon got out of the car first and followed his teacher into the garden. Tanya took Mia by the hand and went inside.

When the teachers in the garden saw them, their expressions changed. Someone asked uncomfortably, “Miss Turner, why are you here with Mia?”

Before Tanya could say anything, Mia replied shyly, “Mommy was at my house yesterday!”.

‘Mommy…’

This greeting puzzled the other teachers even more.

They looked at each other and then realized. They forced a smile at Tanya. “Okay, come in.”

Tanya thought the look on the other’s face was too ambiguous. She lowered her head and took Mia to the kindergarten.

Then, she sent Mia to her class and headed to the dance studio.

Mia sat in her seat after entering the class.

Pete was worried about Nora, so he didn’t come to kindergarten. Mia sat alone in a corner, small and shy.

The other children stayed away from her.

The adults at home had told them that Mia was weak and that they definitely shouldn’t bully her in kindergarten or get too close.

If anything happened to Mia and her illness manifested itself, they would be blamed.

So, Mia had always been on her own.

Only lately, Pete had gotten closer to her and took her along whenever they played. Cherry was the class favorite and everyone played around her. So, Mia gradually got to play with everyone.

But today, the children had moved away from her.

Mia looked at Fawn, sitting next to her, and said, “Fawn, come on…”.

Before she finished, Fawn waved her hand. “I don’t want to. I don’t want to play with you. My mother said you’re ungrateful.”

Mia: “???”

She was stunned and looked around in confusion.

All the children seemed to have heard it and started pointing at Mia with contempt.

Someone even asked her, “Mia, don’t you love your mother anymore? Do you want Miss Turner to be your mother? Isn’t your mother sad to see you like this?”

Mia bit her lip. “But Miss Turner is my mother…”

However, five-year-olds couldn’t differentiate the truth at all. They only believed what their parents said.

They all began to isolate Mia.

On Mia’s part, she was isolated from everyone. After all, she was a child of the Smiths and they didn’t dare bully her. However, Tanya’s situation was not much better than theirs.

After a class at the dance studio, she had no classes for the day, so she went to the office to rest.

Before she could go in, she heard voices coming from inside.

“You seem like a simple person, why are you meddling in someone else’s family?”

“Yeah, you can’t tell from her looks that she’s such a person…”

“Tsk, can a ‘lover’ engrave the words ‘lover’ on her face? But Miss Turner is certainly attractive. She’s got material…”

“But Mr. Smith was out of line. It’s bad enough that he cheated on her, but he wouldn’t even let the girl’s mother see her daughter.That’s too much! Frankly there are no good people in rich families.”

“Look, it’s trending in searches again! Hillary posted it on Facebook.”

Tanya narrowed her eyes at this.

She put her head down and opened Facebook on her phone.

The top trending topic was indeed a long Facebook post by Hillary. Tanya flipped through it. The general message from the other side was that Joel had been unfaithful around that time. After she became pregnant and gave birth to a baby girl, she finally reunited with Joel. However, she did not expect the mistress to return and ruin her family. After the man changed his attitude, he became even more ruthless and asked her to go abroad and never see her daughter again. Tanya even cajoled her daughter to call her ‘mom’. Her only request now is that her daughter be returned to her…. She only hoped that the court would give her justice.

If someone who didn’t know better saw this, they would definitely attack Tanya and Joel!

Also, as a famous dancer and entertainer, Tanya had her own Facebook. She already had over a million followers.

Hillary had even tagged her, which caused many people to send her private messages. Some even cursed her to die a horrible death.

Tanya narrowed her eyes at the various vicious words.

At that moment, a voice was heard from behind her. “Miss Turner, what are you doing here?”

With that sentence, the female teachers in the room who had gathered and whispered suddenly stopped and looked at the door in surprise.

Seeing that she had been spotted, Tanya entered the office.

Looking at the teachers who were talking and holding their condemning gazes, she said directly, “Sometimes what you see is not everything. Before you learn the truth, I hope you can maintain your rationality. Besides, the case is about to start. There will always be an explanation.”

However, it would have been nice if he had not spoken. The moment she did, teachers with a sense of justice began to attack her.

“Miss Turner, I don’t know what kind of emotional entanglements you had with Mr. Smith in the past, plus it may be true that Mia’s mother and Mr. Smith are not married. If you get involved, calling yourself a third wheel is too much. but! You shouldn’t have stopped the girl’s mother from seeing her!”

“Yes, the child is still little, do you think you can hide the truth by having her call you mom? When she grows up, she’ll know who her birth mother is sooner or later.”

“Yes, this is too much…”

“Men from rich families are really ruthless. If Mr. Smith can treat Mia’s mother like this today, wouldn’t he treat you like this in the future too when he finds someone else to love?”

“Miss Turner, it’s better to have a conscience.”

“…”

Hearing those words, Tanya scoffed. “Then do you know what the truth is?”
