Seeing this, Lailahfelt suffocated. She could barely breathe.
Lailahhad been married for five years, but Zaydenhad never accompanied her to send Zayden to kindergarten.
Lailahhad suggested it before, but Zaydenhad refused, citing his busy work schedule.
It turned out that he wasn’t busy. He simply didn’t want to go with her.
Krishlooked sleepy, yawning, clearly having stayed up late and not slept well last night.
However, upon hearing Tamara’s words, he suddenly opened his eyes wide and indeed saw Lailahstanding not far away.
Tamaralooked down at Krishand said, “Krish, I told youthatMs. Griffith wouldn’t beangry with you. Look, she came to see you so early.”
Krishcouldn’t help but show a slight sense of triumph in his eyes after hearing this.
He looked at Lailahand, with an air of arrogance, said, “Don’t think that I’ll give injust because you’re playing tricks. If you don’t apologize to Mara, I won’t forgive you.”
Tamarasmiled at Zaydenand said, “Zayden, it seems that Jaylen’s idea did
work.”
Zaydenresponded with a faint humand said to Lailah, “Marahasn’t had much of an appetite lately. Go prepare some herbal soup for her.”

Lailahgave him an odd look.
“What the hell is wrong with you?”
Tamara, acting as a mediator, stepped forward to smooth things over.
“Ms. Griffith, please stop bickering with Zayden. Let’s sit down and talk things through. Ms. Griffith, you haven’t worked for many years and have no income. You’vebeen living a life of luxury. It must have been tough for you after leaving home, right?”
Tamarapleaded, “Ms. Griffith, just apologize to Zayden. Krish is still young. Let’s not involve him in adult matters, shall we?”
She was implyingthat Lailahwas using the child as a tool to attract attention.
Zayden’s coldgaze landed on her.
“Apologize to Maranow, and I’ll let the past go.”
Krishfrowned, his face full of displeasure.
“Mom, I’m not your tool for competing for affection.”
Lailahlooked at the three of them and felt it was laughable.
Anyone who didn’t know better would think the three of them were a family, and she was the villain bullying them.
Tamaralooked as sincere as if she were her best friend.
“Ms. Griffith, it’s better to make peace now.”
Lailahsneered coldly. “Make peace? Freezing my card and making me apologize. This is your gesture? Do you wanna get what I’ve got, Ms. Mosley?”

Tamaraopened her mouth but couldn’t find the words.
At that moment, Krishsuddenly stepped in front of Tamara, arms spread wide, assuming a protective stance.
“Don’t bully Maraanymore!”
Lailahwas genuinely stunned.
Although Krishhad been very attentive to Tamara, he had never stood in front of her like this, as an adversary.
Well…
Maybe it was because in the pastshe would be the one to apologize first, so thesituation never happened.
Looking at Krish, whose face was filled with hatred, Lailahalmost lost her balanceand collapsed to the ground.
Tamara’s eyes flashed with aglint as she stepped forward to help Lailah.
“Ms. Griffith, be careful. Ah!”
Tamarasuddenly stumbled and was about to fall onto the road.
At that moment, a car happened to be passing by. Seeing that Tamarawas about to fall into the street and gethit, Zaydenreacted quickly and pulled her into his arms.
Tamara’s eyes instantly reddened, her body trembling slightly from the fear.
“Zayden, I… I almost didn’t get to see you again…..”
Tears streamed down her face, her expression delicate and pitiful.

Zayden’s face was cold. He then stared at Lailah.
Tamaragrabbed Zayden’s arm. “Zayden, it wasn’t Ms. Griffith’s fault… please don’t blame her, it was my own fault for not standing properly…”
Krishrushed over in a panic.
“Mara, are you okay?”
Tamaraforced a faint smile. “I’m fine…”
Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly fainted.
Zaydendidn’t spare a glance at Lailah. He held Tamarain his arms and quickly walked toward the parking area.
Krishfollowed closely behind, and neither of them spared a second glance at Lailah.
Lailahwatched asZaydenand Krishleft, her heart sinking.
Lailahclosed her eyes, took several deep breaths, and slowly left as her feet trembled.

Lailahthought that since Maxwellgave her so much money, Anton might be a difficult child to handle.
But afterspending a day with him, Lailahfound that Antonwas quite easygoing.
He wasn’t picky with food. Hewouldeat whatever was given to him.
He was obedient, quiet, and didn’t cause trouble, almost like an angelic baby.
That night, as soon as Lailahhad tuckedAntonin, her phone vibrated.
She answered the phone, and Elyse’s anxious voice came through.

“Lailah, what you doing right now? Have you seen the news?”
After closing the door to Anton’s room, Lailahwhispered. “I just put Anton to sleep. What’s going on?”
“You’re trending!”
“Trending?” Lailahasked in confusion. “What’s trending?”
“Someone exposed your identity…Ugh, it’s too complicated to explain in one or two sentences. Just go check it out!”
After hanging up the phone, Lailahhesitantly opened the trending topics.
She usually kept a low profile, and after being married to Zaydenfor five years, she had hardly ever appeared in public with him.
Except for a few acquaintances of Zayden, almost no one in the circle knew her.
How could she be trending?
Lailahopened the trending topics on her phone with confusion.
A bright red headline appeared at the top of the trending topics.
She clicked on the trending topic, and there was a photo of her.
“Exposing the Legendary Mrs. Walter, Lailah’s Personal Journey.”
Below the title were several exclusive photos with watermarks and captions.

“However, five years ago, Zaydensuddenly rushed into a secret marriage, the reason for which was unclear. It was only recently that we found out the real reason for his sudden marriage was that he had to marryhis wifebecause of a child.
“The bride, of course, was Zayden’s wife, Lailah.
“It is said that it was her, shamelessly climbing into Zayden’s bed, ruthlessly breaking apart Zaydenand Tamara, and even sending Tamaraabroad.
“Not long ago, Tamarawas diagnosed with a terminal illness and returnedhomefor treatment. Lailah’s jealousy flared up, and she started to make life difficult for Tamara, even wishing her to die soon.”
Below this text were several photos and a video.
Most of the photos showed her pushing Tamara, who looked at her with teary eyes as if she had been wronged.
Lailahclicked on the video, which started with her explosive words.
“I’m surely not as enchanting as you. Zayden’s sister likes you. So do his friends. Zayden and Krish are also fascinated by you. Even God…also likes you…”
