CHAPTER 122: CHAPTER 122: I’M ALREADY LEGALLY MARRIED TO ELIAS HAWTHORNE (2)

...

After Raina North finished the onboarding process and just came out, she saw Claire North waiting by the door.

She frowned, feeling very impatient. Claire North was like a sticky band-aid that she couldn’t shake off.

Raina was too lazy to pay attention to Claire North and was ready to leave.

"Sister... Raina!" Claire North blocked her way. "Let’s talk."

Raina looked at her with an indifferent expression. "I don’t think we have anything to talk about."

"Sister, don’t be like this. Even if you keep avoiding, it won’t help. What’s not yours, just isn’t yours. If you’re smart, you’d better leave The Hawthorne Family on your own. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to be thrown out."

Raina finally looked at Claire North, her lips curling up slightly. "Claire North, on what grounds are you saying these things to me?"

Claire North responded without hesitation, "Of course, as Baby Hawthorne’s biological mother, the future mistress of The Hawthorne Family."

Raina couldn’t help but laugh. "Claire North, have you forgotten that Elias Hawthorne and I are already married?"

"..."

"So, I am the rightful mistress of The Hawthorne Family."

"..."

"Even though you gave birth to Baby, Baby is not close to you at all. Who do you think will end up being kicked out?"

"Raina, damn you!" Claire North exploded with rage, unable to bear it anymore, she raised her hand to slap Raina!

Raina lifted her hand and caught Claire North’s wrist. "Why are you so angry? Isn’t this situation of your own making? You should be happy."

"Raina!" Claire North shouted in anger, gritting her teeth. "Don’t get cocky! Don’t forget your eldest son is still in my hands. If you want him dead, just keep opposing me!"

A cold glint flashed in Raina’s eyes, but suddenly she laughed and released Claire North’s wrist.

Claire North had been struggling, and unexpectedly, Raina suddenly let go. She couldn’t stand still, twisted her foot, and if she hadn’t grabbed the tree beside her, she might have fallen embarrassingly.

Raina lazily smiled, "Sister, why so excited? Too much emotional upheaval isn’t good for your health. You better take care of yourself. Otherwise, your son might have to recognize someone else as his mother."

"You wish!" Claire North’s face twisted with rage. "Baby Hawthorne is my son! I am the biological mother of the little prince of The Hawthorne Family!"

Hearing Claire North’s words, Raina realized that all her effort was in vain. Claire North was so nervous about Baby not because he was her son, but because of his status as the little prince of The Hawthorne Family.

What could make a child feel happiness is definitely not some status, but the genuine motherly love from their biological mother.

Clearly, Claire North did not have that.

Raina suddenly felt very sorry for Baby Hawthorne, that child so eager for motherly love would ultimately be disappointed.

Suddenly, Raina had no interest in saying another word to Claire North and was ready to leave.

"Raina." Claire North called out to her again, "Let’s make a deal."

"Sorry, I’m not interested."

"How do you know if you don’t hear me out?" Claire North didn’t give Raina the chance to refuse and continued, "I’ll give Beau Shelby back to you, and you return Mrs. Hawthorne’s status to me. From now on, we owe each other nothing and become true sisters, how about that?"
