Chapter 579: The New Miss
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Who are you?” At the door, a woman in pajamas, holding a plate of freshly washed fruits, looked at the commotion in confusion.
Feng Wei glanced at her from head to toe, recalling the “daughter” her mother had mentioned. Her brows furrowed uneasily. “Are you the new maid in my house?”
The woman quickly shook her head. “No, I’m a student of Teacher Feng Mo. My name is Lin He.”
“Lin He?” Feng Wei looked away contemptuously. “You have no business here. 1 came to see my mom.”
“Madam Mei.” The old butler’s face turned stern, rare impatience evident in his tone. “Please show some respect to Madam’s adopted daughter, Miss Lin, who is now Madam’s daughter and the new Miss Feng.”
“You mean her?” Feng Wei pointed at Lin He incredulously. “What does she have that compares to me? Why did my mom choose her?”
The old butler said, “Please address Madam Mei properly. You’ve severed ties with her. Don’t presume to call her ‘mother’.”
Feng Wei was rendered speechless, her face turning red as she struggled to find words.
Ignoring her, the old butler turned to Lin He with a pleasant smile. “Miss, Madam instructed you to try on the dress she prepared for you. You’ll attend a ball together tonight.”
“Okay, I understand.” Lin He glanced at Feng Wei hesitantly before leaving the fruits behind and heading upstairs.
The staircase used to lead to Feng Wei’s room, but now it belonged entirely to another woman.
Seeing this, Feng Wei fell into madness.
She pushed the elderly butler aside and stormed into the villa, shouting in the living room, “Mom! Mom, come out! 1 want to talk to you face to face! Mom! Are you so afraid to see me?”
After the incident years ago, Feng Mo had replaced all the servants. Apart from the old butler, no one knew Feng Wei’s identity.
They heard the commotion and looked over curiously.
Ignoring the old butler’s blockade, Feng Wei continued to yell, “Mom! Come out! We haven’t seen each other for so many years, and I didn’t even know when you found a fake to replace me! Don’t you need to come out and explain?”
“Hey, you’d better leave and not disturb Madam’s rest. She just took her medicine and went to bed!” The old butler, seeing that he couldn’t stop her, quickly signaled the surrounding servants to help.
They tried to push Feng Wei out.
However, she was never an obedient person.
Now Feng Wei was pushed to a dead end, and Feng Mo was her only reliance. How could she just let it go?
At this point, she didn’t care about dignity anymore. When someone pushed her, she bit their wrist, or she kicked another person in the stomach.
In the chaos, Feng Wei’s hair was messy, and the buttons on her clothes were undone. She looked like a shrew, far from the poised Miss Feng of the prestigious Feng family.
“Stop.”
After much commotion, a cold voice came from upstairs.
For a moment, the noisy living room fell silent.
Feng Wei looked up at the woman overlooking her from upstairs, her eyes full of hope and nostalgia.
“Mom…”
“Don’t call me that. I’m not your mother.” Feng Mo coldly refuted her, then turned to the others. “You can all go about your business. I’ll handle this.”
Seeing that Feng Mo’s rest was disturbed, the old butler quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Madam. I didn’t handle it well.”
“It’s not your fault.” Feng Mo descended the stairs, expressionless. “By the way, has the Miss tried on the dress?”
“The Miss has already returned to her room to try on the dress,” the old butler replied promptly.
Feng Mo’s expression softened slightly. “Tell her to come to the living room after trying it on, so I can see if any adjustments are needed.”
“Yes, Madam.” The old butler went to carry out the order.
The living room was now left with only the former mother and daughter.
Feng Wei rushed towards her mother with tears in her eyes, wanting to give her a long-lost hug.
But Feng Mo calmly stepped aside, showing no concern for her embarrassment. “I told you over the phone. You’re no longer my daughter. You have no relation to me now. Why are you making a scene here?”
Tears fell from Feng Wei’s eyes, making her look pitiful. “Mom, are you really so heartless? We have a mother-daughter bond that runs deep. Are you really planning to deny me forever?”
“It’s not that I don’t want you, but because you chose to give up being my daughter for a man.” Feng Mo’s face turned grim. “Leave. I won’t hold you accountable for today’s behavior, but if it happens again, I’ll call the police.”
“Mom…” Feng Wei was too upset to speak.
But Feng Mo was ruthless.. “Let me reiterate for the last time, I’m not your mother!”
