Chapter 251 - Two Hundred And Fifty-one: Apologize To My Son (1/2)
The third point of view
Those chipmunks were getting on her nerves, they wanted her to age faster than her time.
Reina had waited for them, patiently. They had even dared to disguise their appearances - what kind of mother would she be if she couldn't identify her own children?
So the moment they came out of the arrival terminal, Reina had recognized them and they did too because they sprinted into a run.
And so the cat and mouse game began. Nonetheless, they gave her a hard time finding them but it also came as a relief to Reina- they wouldn't be kidnapped easily by the enemy.
But the kids underestimated her, she was able to find out Allen's location through the surveillance camera now monitored by her people.
Informed of Allen's location, she sashayed into that lunchroom to give her son a piece of her mind when she stumbled upon a scene that made her boil with anger.
”You rude child!” Reina saw this woman yelling at her child. Her brow raised, someone dared to bully her son in her absence?
”Who's your mother?! ”
The nerve!
Fine, she summoned her? Here she comes.
”I am,” Reina strutted comfortably to the middle of the noise that had also attracted the attention of other people.
Jennifer was angry seeing Neon cry his eyes out, her son was a nice child. Who knows what that evil child has done to him?
The anger plus the frustration of discovering that the man she was supposedly getting married to was cheating on her, made Jennifer call out the kid's mother.
But she never expected to see that woman! Jennifer had watched that video over and over again to the point of insanity. Hence, there was no way she couldn't recognize her at first sight.
Honestly, She was intimidated. There was this aristocratic yet dangerous aura around this woman not to talk of the way she carried herself confidently - an attitude she couldn't pull off without appearing clumsy.
”You wanted me here? Why can't you talk? Cat got your tongue?” Reina taunted her without holding back
Reina recognized this woman instantly, she was Niklaus's fiancée who he would get married to or so he thought - she wouldn't let that happen.
There was no need to pretend, Reina didn't like her nor did she like her either. At the least she wasn't fake with her feelings, that was an admirable trait.
”Yes, I did,” Jennifer thrust her chin forward, wanting to look intimidating. Her fists were folded by her side as she scrutinized Reina. She could see why Niklaus was attracted to her.
The woman was beautiful- not the enchanting version of beauty but the type enamoring enough to make a man whistle. Jennifer herself wasn't left out in the beauty department, but she was cute and plain, she thought.
”Your son hurt my son and refuses to apologize, ” Jennifer laid her complaint.
Reina gave her a mocking look, ” You mean your son or the ice cream?”
Jennifer went red in the face, ” Is this all you can say? No wonder your son has no manners,” she blurted out. She didn't mean to say that but staring at that face reminded her of that video and how much it irked her.
”Excuse me? '' Reina raised a brow, threading her hand through her hair. Someone just provoked her.
”Isn't that what you should say to yourself?” Reina settled her fierce orbs on her.
”What?”
” Your son was the one who wasn't looking and bumped into my son. Still yet you dared to request an apology even when he offered to buy him another one? How shameless could you get!” Reina raised her voice on her, the way Jennifer had done to her son moments ago.
Jennifer was speechless, this wasn't the reaction she expected.
” Mommy, ” Neon who had stopped crying tugged on her clothe,” Stop crying, ”
Jennifer at once realized tears were streaming down her face and began to wipe them away, furiously. She didn't intend to cry but she was such an emotional person.
At once, people began to murmur, gesturing in disapproval against Reina. In their eyes, she was now the woman bullying mother and son.
”Stupid people,” Reina muttered, pulling out her purse to bring out wads of cash which she placed in Jennifer's grasp amid her refusal.
