Irene was stunned for a moment and immediately called the driver to come over. Unfortunately, Imogen’s car had already driven away.

After a while, Irene sat in the back seat, looking out the window at the street scene, feeling a surge of annoyance in her heart.

She thought, “I never expected the people from the Forbes family to deceive Imogen by telling her that her mother has died. In order to achieve my goal, I have to make Imogen believe that I am her mother.”

However, upon careful consideration, Irene felt that something was not right.

If Imogen really believed that her mother had died, then when someone Imogen had a grudge. against suddenly claimed to be her mother, she would be angry and think that person was crazy rather than calmly saying her mother had died long ago.

It seemed as though Imogen already knew what Irene was going to say.

Irene thought, “Perhaps Imogen has known about my identity for a long time, which was why she was so calm. Judging from Imogen’s eyes, it seems to be the case. When did Imogen find out?” Irene thought back to their last meeting at the hospital, and Imogen’s reaction didn’t seem fake, so Imogen probably didn’t know at that time.

But after the hospital, due to some twist of fate, Imogen found out that Irene was her mother, and thinking about what happened at the hospital that day, she couldn’t help but feel wronged, which was why she was stubborn and didn’t want to acknowledge Irene.

At the thought of this, Irene smirked.

Because of what happened at the hospital last time, Imogen blamed her, indicating that Imogen. still cared about their mother–daughter relationship. Thus, Irene thought as long as she took the initiative to get close to Imogen, Imogen’s attitude would definitely soften.

In the car, Imogen leaned back in her seat, staring blankly out of the window without moving. In fact, before their reunion at the hospital, Imogen had already gradually let go of her feelings towards her mother as she grew up.

She also approached the situation with a mindset of empathy and understanding, acknowledging. that while her mother gave birth to her, her mother had the right to pursue her own life despite unfortunate circumstances.

Yet, the current situation after their reunion was different from what she had imagined. Nothing happened without a reason. Imogen wouldn’t believe that Irene suddenly came to acknowledge Imogen was out of the goodness of her heart.

That night, Irene called Imogen, but no one answered. When she called again, she found out that Imogen had already blocked her.

She sent a message to Imogen using the driver’s phone: [Imogen, I’m your mom. I’m sorry. I know you have grievances against me for leaving you for so many years, not asking about you. But now I know it was wrong. I know you’ve suffered a lot, and I won’t leave you again. If you’re willing, I can take you back to the Harrington Villa. Yohan and Walter will definitely treat you like family.]

Imogen had guessed that with Irene’s character, she probably wouldn’t give up easily. Receiving this message was expected.

Then, Irene sent another message: [If you don’t want to go to Jubilian City, I can buy you a house

and a car in New York City or give you a deposit. I heard you just won a photography award recently, and I have some connections that can help you set up a photography studio to pursue your dreams. Also, have you been acting recently? Walter owns an entertainment company. If you want to continue acting, he will definitely provide you with the best resources.]

Imogen sneered and quickly typed a few words: [No need, I’ve already come this far in twenty years. Whether or not I have a mother is not important anymore. I know there are no free lunches. in this world, but I am not naive enough to be swayed by the conditions you’ve promised. If you really care for me, then please stop disturbing my life.]

Irene frowned when she saw that Imogen seemed uninterested. She typed a message: [Do you trust Mom? I really just want to make it up to you. Do you have time tomorrow? Let’s meet up?]

After she pressed send, a prominent red exclamation mark appeared next to the message.

This number had also been blocked by Imogen.

Gloominess appeared on Irene’s face.

Since being soft didn’t work, then she would have to use force.

The next day, while Imogen was on set, she received a call from Grace’s kindergarten teacher.

Her assistant handed her the ringing phone, and she glanced at the screen before answering.

The teacher on the other end said, “Grace’s mother, a lady has come to the kindergarten, claiming to be Grace’s grandmother, and wants to take her away.”

Imogen’s heart skipped a beat, and she immediately said, “Don’t let her take Grace away!”
