Filed to story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love
“You’re Halston Guajardo’s Mommy?”
Adie had a quick mind. He immediately figured out Francine’s identity.
He remembered hearing from Daddy Liam and Mommy Leah that Bad Daddy’s Mommy, also known as Francine Milford, treated Flossie very badly back in the days.
Therefore, although he felt a sense of familiarity with Francine, he instantly disliked her the moment he found out who she was because she used to bully Flossie with Halston.
“That’s right, that’s right. I’m Halston’s mother, and I’m your grandma. What a clever boy!”
The more Francine looked at the two children, the more she liked them. Knowing that they were the grandchildren she had always wanted almost made her pass out with joy.
Unfortunately, Adie dashed cold water on her good mood.
“If you’re Halston Guajardo’s mother, then you’re not a good Mommy. You didn’t teach your son well.”
“What… What do you mean?”
Francine’s smile froze. She did not expect to get lectured by her grandson.
“Mommy said that a real man is like a superhero who is kind and protects the weak. But the son you brought up bullies a woman just because he’s physically stronger. Doesn’t that mean your education is a failure?”
Adie crossed his arms and drilled Francine with the tough question.
In his opinion, Bad Daddy was bad because his mother did not educate him well. Now that Adie had a chance to meet the woman in question, he must seek justice for his mother.
“He bullied a woman?”
Francine frowned and expressed her disbelief, “My son is a gentleman. I’ve only seen him help women before. He would never bully a woman. There must be a misunderstanding.”
“There’s no misunderstanding. My brother and I saw it with our own eyes!”
Abby pouted behind Adie and exclaimed with righteous indignation, “Bad Daddy climbed on top of Mommy and pressed his body on hers. If we hadn’t arrived in time, he would have bitten her!”
The little girl vividly remembered the image she saw when she and Adie pushed open the door earlier. Bad Daddy was about to bite Mommy! He’s a bad man!
“Pressed his body on hers, about to bite her?”
Francine, being an adult, immediately understood what happened. The corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up.
Oh, thank goodness, her son was finally behaving like a man and had gained the worldly desire that all men had.
After seeing him being indifferent to women for so many years, she was starting to think that her son was impotent!
“That’s so bad of him! How could he do such a bad thing? He’s worse than an animal! It’s my fault for not educating him properly. I’ll beat him up and teach him a lesson!”
Francine went along with the children’s emotions and scolded Halston. “How could he bully a woman? That’s not what a real man should do! I should send him to a men’s ethics college and make him study hard and only let him out after he learns to respect women.”
“To be honest with you, I’ve been dissatisfied with my son for a long time. How do you want to punish him? Don’t worry, you can tell me. I’ll give him a severe punishment!”
“Will you really punish that bad man?”
Adie looked at Francine doubtfully. His sharp and cautious personality was just like Halston’s.
“Of course! I’ve been dissatisfied with his behavior for a long time!”
“That’s good. Welcome to our “Anti-Halston” movement.”
When Adie and Abby saw how fair and reasonable Francine was, their hostility towards her lessened. They even felt like she was an ally who shared a common enemy with them.
“But first, you have to tell Grandma who your mother is. She must be a very capable woman. She raised two lovely kids who are so kind and upright. As an elder, I feel ashamed of myself. I need to learn how to educate a child from her.”
Francine’s elegant face was constantly adorned with a kind smile. She looked at the children with eyes full of love.
The more she looked at the two children, the more she liked them, and the more curious she became as to who their mother could be.
No matter who it was, considering the way the children carried themselves, she was definitely not a poor girl from a common family or a celebrity looking for a rich man to marry. She must be a cultured woman from a good family.
After all, there was no way her son would fall for a nasty woman.
Well… except for Jessanna Ximenez!
“How perceptive of you, fairy godmother. Our mommy is indeed an incredible woman. Her name is…”
Abby was about to tell her, but at that moment, Halston walked out. He had changed his clothes and tidied up his appearance.
When he saw Francine, whom he had not seen for a long time, he could not help but frown. With visible disdain, he asked, “Mom, what are you doing here?”
Francine’s smile instantly disappeared the moment she saw Halston. She approached him angrily and said, “You brat, is that how you greet your mother? I came to see you as soon as I landed because I haven’t seen you for so long. What’s with that tone? Do you even have a conscience?”
“Yup, you children are right. I failed to educate him properly as his mother. I can’t believe I raised a giant iceberg who has no idea what being considerate means.”
Francine pinched Halston on the arm while admonishing him.
However, her son’s arm muscles were so firm that her fingers could not get a good grip, so she ended up slapping him hard on the back instead.
Halston was dumbfounded. He pointed at his head and told Adie and Abby, “Kids, come here. This old lady has a bit of a problem in here. She might hurt you by accident.”
“No, the fairy godmother is a good person. You’re the bad guy. You bullied Mommy! We’re not on your side!”
Although Abby was charmed by Halston’s good looks, she was still able to distinguish between good and bad. She defected on the spot and stood behind Francine like a good girl.
“That’s right, your Mommy is a good person while you’re the bad guy. I agree that your Mommy should punish you and teach you a lesson!”
Adie chose Francine’s side too while looking at Halston coldly.
“? ? ?”
Halston did not expect the children to betray him the very first time they met their grandmother.
As expected, children could get close to their grandparents very easily!
“Mom, what did you tell them? Why are they taking your side already?”
He asked Francine curiously, looking eager to learn from her.
Truth be told, not only was he having a hard time winning Flossie back, he was also having a hard time winning over the children.
He was confident that he could make Flossie fall in love with him again, but he was not as confident that he could make the children put down their hostility and like him… Oh, what a headache!
“Of course they do. I represent justice. I’ll always teach bad people like you a lesson. Of course the children are on my side.”
Francine’s words received strong acknowledgment from the kids.
“That’s right! Justice will always prevail over evil. You’re a villain who bullied our Mommy, so you deserve to be punished!”
