Betrayed by Husband Divorced when Pregnant (Kelly and Pierce) novel Chapter 150

Chapter 150: Chapter 150 Who Can Help?

Matt’s POV

I was cleaning my own wound on the cheek when mom went down the stairs and gasped upon seeing our faces.

The new house was huge and good but I don’t like it here. I still like to stay in the province rather than in this crowded city.

“What happened to the both of you?” He went to me and touched my face before she checked Mason’s bruised eyebrow and lip.

“It’s nothing, mom,” I answered, not wanting to make this an issue.

“Nothing? That’s not nothing, Matt! Who did this to you? Huh?”

I shook my head. “We’re no longer kids, mom.”

“It’s Kelly’s boyfriend. The President of ADE.” Mason said and looked at me with a hardened expression.

I hissed.

“That bitch again?” Mom screamed. Her neck and face were red. Tsk!

“Did you still visit Ava’s grave?” Mom growled as she looked at me.

I stared at her blankly. “Yes.”

“Matt!” She screamed. “I told you don’t ever try to see them!”

I shook my head. “I just wanna know what kind of person they are.”

“Kelly is a gold digger, Matt! She’s stealing everything that belongs to us!”

I pulled myself up and faced her. “Mom, we can settle this without ruining the family—”

“She’s not part of the family, Matt! Who knows if she ‘s even Eva’s biological daughter? What if she’s just pretending?”

“Didn’t Attorney Lee confirm it? We’re listening during the reading of the last will and testament, mom. It was clearly said there that Eva Foster’s daughter should inherit the family business and all the properties of the Foster.”

‘Then what about us?” She spat back. I gritted my teeth. I never wanted wealth. I want a simple life but my family doesn’t have the same opinion on this. They want the company. They want the lands and everything that was under the name of Foster.

“This will just make things worse, mom.”

“That bitch Kelly is making it worse, Matt! Can’t you see? She kicked out father out of the company? Matt, wake up!”

I looked sharply at Mason. “The girl you’re calling a bitch is our cousin, Mason.”

“She’s not! Mom said she might be an impostor—”

“Don’t be ridiculous!” I growled. “Kelly has money. She doesn’t even need the Foster’s wealth.”

“Then why did she steal the company from us?”

I pressed my lips together. I don’t know Kelly’s reasons so I have nothing to say now. I just want to make them realize that Kelly is not an enemy. Clearly, that girl is lonely. She lost both of her parents. Her step brother seemed obsessed with her and her stepmother killed her father. I don’t think she’d put herself in a tough situation like this if she doesn’t have reasons.

Mom slowly shook her head, looking at me with disappointment. “I can’t believe you’re taking her side, Matt. You are my son! Your father was aggrieved. You should be siding with us and not defending that woman!”

“I have free will, mom. I will believe what I want to believe and in my eyes...Kelly’s not what you’re claiming her to be.”

“MATT!”

I kept my straight face as I walked past Mason and went upstairs. New house, new life? Nah! This is tougher than before. Why are they even fighting over a company? Mom and dad have enough savings. Besides, I have work and Mason too, though that bastard doesn’t like working.

Ah! I should just stay at the ancestral house. That’s the most peaceful place now that my family is in the city.
