Chapter 378 Only One Mother
Mr. Timely and Madam Shirley felt a pang in their hearts.
They truly loved Lauren and had treated her like their own daughter from the very beginning.
But now that her birth mother had shown up. Lauren had taken the initiative to go to her.
Is it because we haven’t spent enough time together? Is that why she doesn’t feel as close to as yet?
The couple stood by anxiously, terrified that Lauren might choose to leave them behind.
Alice beamed. “Lauren, sweetheart, what did you want to say to me?”
Lauren leaned in close, her lips brushing against Alice’s car, and whispered so that only the two of them could hear.
“Alice, did you really think you were the only one who came back?”
Alice’s body went rigid. She turned to look at Lauren, utterly stunned.
When she met the cold mockery in Lauren’s eyes, her pupils widened in disbelief.
“You… you…”
Lauren sneered. “That’s right. I was reborn too. And I came back earlier than you did–right when you gave birth to me. Don’t think that just because you returned to the past, everything will magically change. Alice, the truth is, the you in this life and the you from before are no different at all.
“In the children’s store, before your memories returned, you still defended Willow and treated me the same way you did in the last life. Nothing’s changed, You’re selfish, arrogant, fake, dumb, and cruel. Why should I ever forgive someone like you? Alice, whether in our past life or this one, I will never forgive you. If you truly feel guilty, then stay far away from me. Don’t ever show your face again.
“You’ve seen it for yourself–my parents love me very much. In the Mavis family, I have a mom, a dad, and a big brother who care about me. I’m no longer the Lauren who was helpless and bullied by the Bennett family. I’m the little princess of the Mavis family–Lauren.
“Oh, and I’m sure you’re dying to know how I ended up being adopted by the Mavis family, right? I don’t mind telling you. They wanted to adopt me in the last life, too. But I turned them down and stayed for that scumbag Lucas, Looking back, 1 was such an idiot–for the sake of someone unworthy, I missed out on a family that truly loved me. If I’d accepted their adoption back then, maybe I wouldn’t have been abused and disabled by you and the rest of the Bennett family.”
Lauren’s words struck like steel needles, piercing deep into Alice’s heart.
Why?
Why is this happening?
It was already cruel enough that fate had let her relive her life–but Lauren had come back too?
Lauren would never forgive her.
No. No, she can’t. That’s not how it’s supposed to be
She hadn’t returned to grow even further apart from her daughter.
She knew she’d been wrong. She had paid for it in their past life.
She had already repaid her debt to Lauren

Yeah. Only a mother can truly understand what it means to lose a child. I think they should let her take her daughter back.”
“Exactly. It’s only night”
Whispers began to spread through the crowd again
Madam Shirley stood frozen, her mind blank. She stared at Lauren with eyes full of sorrow and heartache.
She wanted to snatch Lauren back immediately. But that woman–no matter how poorly she had raised her–was still Lauren’s birth mother. And her love didn’t seem fake
Am I really going to lose my daughter today?
I mealy to lose my
The thought made her nose sting, and her eyes turned red with tears.
“Lauren come to me.” she said softly, her voice trembling with hope and fear. She sounded like she was begging
Victor glared at Alice furiously: “You’re a terrible person! You tried to hit my sister at the kids store! Lauren, don’t go with.
her!
Lauren shoved Alice hard. Caught off guard. Alice fell straight to the floor
Lauren stared down at her coldly and whispered:
“In our last life. you already drained every bit of hope I had in you. In this life. I refuse to be your daughter again. I only have one mother–and that’s Madam Shirley.”
