Simone guessed, “Most likely, she wants to get the mystical tool from you and give it to Jodie

Gwen also realized this and found Melinda unreasonable. She put the call on speakerphone, aying,

“What brings you to call me out of the blue today?”

Upon hearing Gwen’s sarcasm, Melinda was not pleased, but upon considering the purpose of her call,

she had no choice but to accept it. She spoke gently. Tm your mother. Can’t I show some concern for

you?”

Gwen didn’t fall for it. “So, today is not a normal day as the sun rose from the west.”

Melinda was speechless. Knowing that a gentle approach wouldn’t work, she decided to get straight to

the point. I have something to discuss with you.”

Gwen lazily responded, “That’s right; just get to the point. There’s no need to pretend to be a loving

mother. It’s disgusting.”

Melinda was so angry that she stumbled back. “You!” She took a deep breath and softened her tone as

much as possible. “We’re mother and daughter. Must we make it so tense?”

Gwen yawned. “Why is it so tense? Don’t you have any motives? Stop beating around the bush. If you

have something to say, say it. If not, just hang up. I’m busy and don’t have time to engage in this

mother–daughter drama with you. If you want to act, go find Skyler and Leon. They would be happy to

play with you.”

If it weren’t for something important, Melinda would have ended the phone call. Gwen was heartless

and cold, unlike a caring daughter, so she didn’t beat around the bush anymore. T want to borrow an

antique with auspicious energy from you. I’ll return it in two weeks.”

“I do have one.” Gwen deliberately dragged her tone. “But I won’t lend it to you.”

Melinda’s face changed. “Gwen, you’re going too far. Since what I said to you didn’t work, do I need

your father to come and talk to you personally?” She knew she couldn’t control Gwen, so she brought

up Adam.

Gwen wasn’t afraid. “Then, let him come find me. By then, I’ll have a good talk with Grandma and him.

And while we’re at it, I’ll have Grandma invite you back to the mansion for a meal.”

Melinda choked. “You ungrateful daughter! You do want to anger me to death, don’t you?”

Gwen smiled. “Don’t worry, if you die of anger, I definitely won’t pray for you. To spare you from feeling

disgusted, I also think it’s a waste of energy to pray for you.”

If it weren’t for Adam and her grandfather, she would have been harmed by Melinda’s family. in the

past.

Gwen ended the call and stared at Simone in disbelief. “I can’t understand why Melinda treats Jodie so

well. She treats Jodie much better than she treats me and Leon. I even feel like she treats Jodie better

than Skyler.”

“I can’t help but wonder if Jodie is her biological child.” Simone chuckled. “If Jodie is her child, she

wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to pair Leon with her,” Gwen responded.

Gwen had secretly conducted a DNA test between her, Skyler, Leon, and Melinda, confirming that

Melinda was their biological mother. So, Jodie couldn’t be Melinda’s child.

Gwen pondered for a moment and said, “That makes sense. But I still can’t understand. Could it be that

Jodie is related to Melinda’s family?” Melinda treated her own family much better than she treated

them, especially in terms of support.

“Why don’t you help me analyze their features and see if there is any blood relation between Melinda

and Jodie.” Simone smiled and said, “Sure. Show me a picture of Melinda.” Gwen nodded and found

an old family portrait in an album. She also retrieved a photo of Jodie taken that night from her phone.

“Let’s compare them.” Simone took the phone and carefully examined the photo of Melinda. In the

family portrait, Melinda had minimal makeup and no camera filter, so her facial features were clear.

Then she looked at Jodie’s photo and made a comparison.

“They aren’t mother and daughter, and they have no blood relation.” Simone wasn’t surprised by this.

But Melinda did treat Jodie exceptionally well, which was a bit strange. She went back to look at the

family portrait again. Then a look of surprise appeared on her face. “I noticed something significant.”

Gwen leaned closer and asked, “What is it?” Simone looked at Gwen with a somewhat awkward

expression and uttered, “Your dad has been betrayed.”

Gwen was stunned. She looked at the photo on her phone. Then she suddenly realized what Simone

meant. “You mean my dad has been cheated on by Melinda?” She asked again, “So Skyler is not my

dad’s biological child?” When she secretly did the DNA test before, she also took a sample of Adam’s

hair, and it matched. If that was the case, then Skyler was the one with the problem. She hadn’t

considered this before.

Simone nodded. “Yes. Based on the photo, there is no blood relation between Skyler and your dad, but

he is Melinda’s child.” Then she seemed to remember something and opened Jodie’s photo again.

Continuing with the family portrait, Gwen enlarged the picture of Jodie’s face. She had always felt that

something had been overlooked, and now she knew what it was.

When Gwen saw her action, she couldn’t help but widen her eves and ask “Sl.

their faces, they are half–siblings.”

She continued, “Melinda is really something. After marrying into the Fosters, she had an affair and

gave birth to an illegitimate child. She even kept it a secret until now. And Skyler has already been

brought to the company by your dad to be groomed as the heir, right?”

Gwen was stunned by the revelation, and it took her a moment to recover. “She’s really something.”

Things that she couldn’t understand before suddenly became clear.

“No wonder she never liked me and Leon but liked Skyler so much. If it weren’t for accidentally getting

pregnant with us, and having an abortion would harm her body, she wouldn’t have wanted to give birth

to us.

“No wonder she treats Jodie better than us and even tries to pair her with Leon. It turns out that Jodie is

her lover’s daughter, and she loves her too.”

It had to be said that Gwen was disgusted by her own mother. Simone also understood why Melinda

didn’t like her, but instead liked Jodie. She had always helped Jodie with her impression in front of
