Madam Winters’s Fight For Her Children Chapter 817

Mabel took a sip of warm water to moisten her throat.

“I‘m fine. I‘ll be fine after I rest for a few more days,” she said softly.

“Mabel, you‘re clearly having anxiety because you worry too much,” Mandy gently replied. “Both of us
are in laws, and we‘ve known each other for decades, so we‘re closer than anyone else. Mabel, if
anything‘s on your mind, you can tell me. Keeping it to yourself will only make you sicker.”

Before Duke‘s father passed away, Mabel and Mandy had been pretty close.

However, following the death of Mabel‘s husband , her two sons could not get along. Mabel focused all
her efforts on handling that matter, so she slowly drifted apart from Mandy. There was no way to tell an
“outsider” about what had happened in the family. Mabel shook her head.

“It‘s really nothing. I‘ll be fine in a few days.”

“Did Adina make you angry?” Mandy lowered her voice and said, “Duke got involved with another
woman previously. Did she purposely vent her dissatisfaction on you because she dared not trouble
Duke?”

“There‘s no such thing,” Mabel said indifferently. “Addy is good. My illness has nothing to do with her.”

She had anxiety.

The biological brothers were fighting, and both of them wanted to kill each other.

It was the kind of thing that would give any mother anxiety.



She felt trapped on an isolated island with no one around her, and she was alone with this fear that
could come at any moment.

“Mabel, don‘t defend Adina. She really isn‘t easy to get along with.” Mandy pursed her lips.

“She‘s the eldest daughter of the Daugherty family, but the family is bankrupt, and their youngest
daughter has gone insane in prison. Yet, Adina has never visited the Daugherty family to check on
them. I can only say that the Daugherty family has raised an ungrateful child.”

The Daugherty family‘s affairs had spread among the circle with lower status in Sea City. Adina was the
Daugherty family‘s eldest daughter and Mdm. Winters, so some rich ladies gossiped about them in
front of Mandy.

Those people made everything sound worse, but Mandy did not reiterate those words because she
was afraid that Mabel would start to overthink

“When Duke previously got involved with another

woman, Adina made such a big fuss, which caused the Winters family to be the topic of discussion
among outsiders,” Mandy continued. “She seems so worrisome. Mabel, you have to ask Duke to
protect the Winters family‘s property so that Adina won‘t steal it.”

Mabel sighed. “My illness really isn‘t related to Addy.”

Mandy might not have said it outright, but Mabel could feel that Mandy wanted to relieve her worries.

So, the two of them just chatted.

Adina made two cups of tea before she turned around and said, “Georgie, Al, help me bring the tea
upstairs for Grandma and Aunt Mandy.”



Harold quickly ran over. “Mommy, I‘ll deliver the tea.”

“The tea is very hot. You‘re careless, so forget it.” Adina avoided him before she handed the two cups
of tea to George and Alden. These two boys were serious and attentive, so she was not afraid that they
would accidentally burn themselves.

Harold stuck his tongue out. “I‘ll go upstairs with Georgie and Alden to visit Grandma.”

Melody put down the toy in her hand. “I want to go upstairs too.”

Adina smiled and shook her head before she turned around and prepared dinner in the kitchen.

The four children went upstairs together. Before they reached the door of Mabel‘s room, they heard
parts of the conversation inside.

“She‘s the Daugherty family‘s daughter, but she doesn‘t even care about them. Why would she care
about the Winters family?

“She made such a big fuss over a trivial matter. A big family like the Winters family became a joke too.”

When the children heard what Mandy said, their expressions darkened.
