Chapter 93 Expelling the Conner Family
The cold wind was howling in the yard, and I, was at a loss.
I stood in the yard for a moment before entering the villa. After talking for a long time, it all ended up
being pointless because of a child.
In the villa, Ashley’s belongings were placed in the living room and Ashley had changed her clothes.
Her mother had a stern expression and remained silent.
Seeing Walter return to the villa, Ashley went up to greet him, her eves red.
She didn’t say anything, but her expression clearly showed that she had been wronged.
Seeing her like this, Walter furrowed his brows, “What’s wrong?” he asked, his gaze briefly sweeping
over the things Ashley had packed up.
Tears welled up in Ashley’s eyes, she choked up slightly, looking at Walter, she said, “Walter, I… I don’t
have a home anymore.”
Walter frowned, his dark eyes looking at his mother in confusion.
Mother didn’t look at him, instead she turned her gaze towards me. Seeing my face was frozen red,
she wrapped the prepared cloak around me and led me to sit by the fireplace to warm up.
Of course, I noticed the unusual behavior between my mother and Ashley. Looking at my mother, I
asked, “Mom, what’s this?”
My mother patted my hand, signaling to me that everything was fine. She then looked at Walter and
Ashley, calmly saying, “I’ve said what

needed to be said. Ashley, I’ve raised you for over twenty years, the Conner family has never
mistreated you, nor do we owe you anything. From now on, you are no longer part of the Conner
family.” Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
After speaking, he looked at Walter and said, “Walter, regarding your situation with Tabatha, as an
elder, I shouldn’t interfere. But as a mother, I can’t bear to see my child being wronged. When we
entrusted Tabatha to you, we hoped that you would treat her well. But now it seems that you may not
be able to do so. I don’t blame you for this. Since you have someone you want to take care of, then our
Tabatha will have nothing to do with you in the future. It’s most dignified for people to part on good
terms. I think you understand this. Thank you for taking care of Tabatha these past two years. As for
the Hinton family, I will communicate with Carley. I won’t keep you here tonight.”
Mother had said all that needed to be said, and had also given the order to leave.
Ashley was crying, her tears falling like rain, as she looked at her mother and said, “Mom, if you don’t
want me to stay with the Conner family, I’ll follow your arrangements. But I really haven’t done anything
to hurt Tabatha, you’ve misunderstood me, you’re biased against me, and I’ve endured all of that. But
Walter hasn’t done anything wrong, you can’t treat him like this.”
Mother wanted to say something else, but I held her back, stood up, and looked at Ashley, asking,
“Ashley, are you sure you want to stay with the Conner family?”
She furrowed her brows, her face darkening, “What do you mean?”
I smiled and said indifferently, “Stop acting, or you’ll miss the opportunity.”
After speaking, I glanced at Walter, meeting his gloomy gaze. Without saying anything more, I turned
around and went upstairs.

Driven away by her mother, Ashley couldn’t have been happier, otherwise how could she find an
excuse to cling to Walter? Her hypocritical complaints were nothing more than to highlight how pitiful
she was. I was disgusted by her behavior and couldn’t stand her acting.
I had barely returned to my bedroom when the sound of a car leaving echoed from the yard. Without a
doubt, I knew it was Walter and Ashley who had left.
“Knock, knock!” There was a knocking sound coming from the bedroom door.
I opened my mouth and said, “Come in.”
The one who pushed the door and came in was my mother. Looking at me, she seemed a bit uneasy,
as if she had something to say to me. Seeing her like this, I couldn’t help but pull her to sit on the
armchair, laughing and saying, “Mom, you were never a person who hesitated to speak before, what’s
wrong today? Why do you keep stopping and starting?”
She looked at me, paused, and said, “Tabatha, was I too harsh on Walter just now? Today, Carley also
told me about his relationship with Ashley, he was just taking care of Ashley. I saw him applying
medicine to Ashley in the room just now, and I thought of your father’s death, I got angry, and I acted
impulsively. Now that I think about it, I was such an unqualified mother. The things I said to Walter,
didn’t- they sever your connection with him? You won’t blame your mother, will you?”
Listening to my mother finish speaking, I couldn’t help but hold my forehead. If these words were said
by Ashley, I would definitely have given her a piece of my mind. But these words came from my
mother’s mouth, leaving me somewhat helpless.
Looking at my mother, I nodded, saying, “Yes!”
She froze, looking at me with the expression of a child who had done something wrong, and said,
“Tabatha, I…”
“Mom!” I began, looking at her, “I know that everything you do is for my own good, but Mom, I’ve grown
up. I can handle my own affairs. In many cases, your interference only makes me passive. Like today,
you drove Ashley out of the Conner family and said those harsh words to Walter. If I want to continue
with Walter, aren’t you making it difficult for me? Moreover, by driving Ashley away at this time, aren’t
you just fulfilling her wishes, allowing her to play the victim with Walter, making him unable to let her go
and forcing him to take care of her?”
