Chapter 104
Marina found Olivia’s question hrious. “If I’m not his mother, who else is? You?”
“If you are his mother, you shouldn’t be this cold–nded. He’s having an allergic reaction and has
fallen from the stairs
“The first thing you did isn’t protect him andfort him, but to attack me. Do you even call yourself a
mother?”
Marina said, “Now that Ethan’s here, don’t assume that you’ll be able to restore his feelings for you by
defening me
“Ethan was there when I gave birth to Connor. He knows very well that I am Connor’s mother”
Olivia couldn’t care less to continue the boring topic with her.
The incident proved that some people were unsuitable to be a mother because of their inherent
character.
Connor’s nanny rushed over with a basin of water. Olivia took his top off to ce the naplón on him.
But something was weird.
Kids usually cried or threw a tantrum when they suffered from itchy rashes.

Yet, Connor was all quiet. His eyes were fixated on her as he grasped the hem of her clothes tightly,
wanting her to stay
It was as though he wasn’t afraid as long as she stayed by his side.
“Hold it right there. What are you doing to my son?” Marina was obviously against the cold
compression.
Olivia shot her a cold look. “It will contract the veins and stave the itchiness off. He’s not feeling well
right now
“It takes a single scratch for the rashes to spread. The worst case scenario is that it might cause a
fever ”
Marina wanted to say something, but Ethan stopped her sternly. “Shut up.”
Throughout the two years, it was the first time Olivia witnessed him treating Marina that way.
Marina clearly felt wronged about it. Soon, she began causing trouble.
She said, “I have always been extra careful when ites to Connor’s diet. Why is he suddenly having
an allergic reaction? What did he eat?”
A maid answered, “Master Connor ate half a slice of honey cake. Ms. Fordham baked it.”
Marina red at Olivia. “Olivia Fordham, how dare you feed him a honey cake! You knew that he’s
allergic to it”
“He’s allergic to honey?” Olivia was surprised to find a simrity between herself and Connor.
“Stop ying dumb! You came here for Fordham residence and offered a honey cake in order to
please me
“I didn’t drive you away because I treated you as a guest. And yet, you have an ulterior motive. Just
come at me if you How could you harm a mere kid?
“It’s not only that. Ethan, look at my neck. She was trying to kill me!”
Marina knew that Connor was Ethan’s priority. Anyone that hurt Connor would be in big trouble.
She thought that as long as she could shift the me to Olivia, he would let the incident slide.
Olivia finally realized that Marina was setting her up all along. That was why Marina requested a honey
cake
Olivia figured that Marina wouldn’t have kept her promise even if Olivia had disfigured her face and left
the city
A calcting woman who used her son to her advantage would never keep her promise.
As an afterthought, Olivia’s heart ached for Connor. Judging from Marina’s attitude, she was clearly not
a mother materie!
Ethan didn’t take Marina’s side like he always did. He scolded sternly, “Shut up! You keep finding fault
in others ever since 1
came.
“Do you even care about Connor‘ I can’t help but wonder how you have been fulfilling your duties as a
minthag
His gaze swept across her outfit Her half–polished toenails disgusted him
“Ethan, I”
“Get out I don’t want to see you right now “Forget about keeping her pride Refraining from strangling
her to death moment was his best concession
“Do you even care about Connor? I can’t help but wonder how you have been fulfilling your duties as a
mother.”
His gaze swept across her outfit. Her half–polished toenails disgusted him.
“Ethan, I-”
“Get out. I don’t want to see you right now.” Forget about keeping her pride. Refraining from strangling
her to death at this moment was his best concession.
