"No, Mom is so boring! She ignores us all and never plays with us!"

"Yes! Mom is boring! She doesn't even cook as well as Aunty!"

'.',

"Un! I don't want to eat cheerios everyday! Mom can't cook!"

The boys' words only put Chloe in an awkward spot. Because they made it as if Chloe was a better mother figure than their real mother, and she didn't want that.

After all, Chloe knew the struggle of motherhood. She was already busy just taking care of one daughter, so she still had respect for Chelsea. Chelsea had to take care of four sons without the help of a babysitter and still had to work as a teacher at an elementary school every weekday.

'

Despite all of Chelsea's animosity and ill intention toward her, Chloe still saw Chelsea as her sister. Also, Chloe respected her for all her efforts to keep her family intact, which Chloe failed to do with Vincent.

"B—Boys, go to your Mom's side and apologize now, it's not good to talk bad about your Mom," Chloe advised, and the boys still refused and hugged her legs and waist like a bunch of koalas instead.

Chelsea was even more pissed once she realized that her children preferred to play with their sweet Aunt Chloe more than returning to her, their real mother who struggled with life— unlike that spoiled whore.

She saw that Chloe was trying to advise the boys to be obedient kids, but in Chelsea's eyes— all she saw was a pretentious woman who acted like Mother Theresa in front of the kids.

While in fact, she was just a whore who cheated on her super perfect husband just because she didn't get enough attention from him. It was so disgustingly hypocritical!

"Aaron, Mike, Nathan, Tony, come to me now or all of you will be grounded!" Chelsea said while glaring at all of her children.

The kids were feeling rebellious because Aunt Chloe was with them. Of course, they wanted to show how cool and rebellious they were!

"No! We want to play with Aunt Chloe!"

"Yes, Aunty, we want to meet Boss Mackie too, let's go!"

"Un! Aunt Chloe is the best!"

Chloe noticed how angry Chelsea looked, and she got even more nervous. She wanted to quickly escape this mess and walk away, but before she could say a thing, Chelsea suddenly snapped and yelled;

"Don't hug her, you boys don't know that your Aunt Chloe is a bitch who cheated on her husband because she's an ungrateful whore!"

Chloe's eyes widened. She didn't expect Chelsea to say such a thing in public— even worse, in front of her kids!

The boys didn't really understand what their mother meant. After all, they were all still very young.

They all looked up to Chloe and asked, "Aunty, what's bitch?"

"Yeah, and what's whore?"

'',

"Aunty, answer us!"

The other customers near them started listening quietly. They tried to busy themselves by putting stuff inside their shopping carts, but really— they were all ears to the quarrel.

Chloe's body was visibly shaken. She felt ashamed. She didn't want to spit out the cold, harsh truth of Tommy's affair because she didn't want to see a family with four young sons crumble because of her mouth.

But Chelsea wasn't thinking straight right now. She just wanted to embarrass Chloe, to make sure that nobody would believe she was a good woman because she was obviously not!

She looked around and realized that many customers were listening attentively. She felt empowered to think that everyone was by her side.

After all, she was a good woman who had a good, proper family. She took care of her husband and children, worked, and still took care of her old mother.

Unlike Chloe, who had a perfect life with a perfect husband but still managed to cheat on him just because she was bored at home, Chelsea had to work on everything!

The boys weren't getting any answer from their Aunt Chloe, so they turned their heads toward their Mom, waiting for an answer.

Chelsea thought it was a good time to reveal what kind of worthless bitch this woman was in front of her children, so they wouldn't get a bad influence.

'Hmph! As if I would let my sons be close to a bitch's daughter. I don't even know if Mackie is Vincent's real daughter! She might be a product of Chloe's affair with someone else!' Chelsea thought.

She pointed at Chloe and yelled, "Yes, that's right. If you boys want to know, that means your Aunt Chloe is a cheap woman who spread her legs and got fucked by a random man because she is an ungrateful bitch—"

SLAP!

"AH—!"

The sound of a hard slap rang across the aisle. Everyone went silent, especially Chelsea, who was still trying to recover from shock as she had just received a hard slap on her cheek. She put her palm on her cheek to feel the painfully hot sensation.

She darted her eyes at Chloe again and glared at her.

She thought Chloe would apologize and act like a stupid meek woman as always, but Chloe gave the same energy instead, and she glared at Chelsea.

She huffed heavily, her chest raising up and down and her hand shaking after she slapped Chelsea.

"HOW DARE YOU— YOU BITCH—"

"SHUT UP!" Chloe yelled back, unable to contain her wrath. She was trying her hardest not to shame Chelsea in public— especially in front of her sons because if she was overtaken by her anger, she would be spilling everything and say that Tommy had been cheating with a woman outside, and SHE HAD A PROOF!

"Don't you dare to say a word, Chelsea. I know how to ruin your life, and I've got the proof. I'm being considerate because I still care for my family," Chloe threatened with a sharp tone, something very unusual coming from the mouth of a meek woman like her.
