Marrying the Richest Man After My Break Up Chapter 233
Patricia was so furious that her breathing had become ragged. “You i-ill-bred b*tch…”North was not bothered by that comment. “When others are rude to me, I naturally treat them the same way.”“You…” Patricia’s words lodged in her throat. Furious, she turned to Gerald. “What are you standing there for? Chase this b*tch out! Gerald, I am your mother. I gave birth to you and raised you! How can you anger me this way?”After she said this, North stood frozen after being stunned by those words. Wait. Was this woman Gerald’s birth mother?Was Gerald not Paige’s son? Could he actually be the son of the adopted daughter, Patricia?Everyone said that Patricia had usurped the position of the first wife and lived it up with her son. Then did that not mean that Gerald was an illegitimate son…?She recalled how Patricia had mentioned a brother. That meant that Patricia mistreated her own son while she protected her adopted one with everything she had.Gerald and his adopted younger brothe

Gerald did not care at all what others said about him. It did not matter if they said he was ruthless or heartless. In any case, the Bracken family had wronged him. As such, he naturally would not let them off.However, he was afraid that North would think of him negatively.North was stunned for a second. Then, she quickly shook her head. Indeed, she hated illegitimate offspring. But, that was only limited to the sort who were like Melinda.“You could not have chosen your birth, but you can always choose how to live your life. Gerald, you’re a great person. You don’t need to care about what people say about you.”Gerald’s footsteps came to a halt.In all these years, North was the second person to say that to him.As they strolled in the back garden, North heard some people having a fight not far away.“Ms. Patricia has shot herself in the foot. Gerald Howard… Is that someone she can just tell off?”“Does it matter? No matter what, Patricia is Virgil Bracken’s most preciou

Gerald continued, “If you don’t get up, Miss Bracken, I don’t mind helping you.”Cynthia’s expression was sour. Yet, she still refused to move and held onto her chair in a death grip.“North, don’t get jealous over nothing, okay? I’m Gerry’s cousin!”Daniel tried to act as a mediator. “Mom, Cynthia just likes sticking close to Gerald. Enough, it’s just a small matter. Can’t Miss North sit somewhere else? Besides, everyone has already taken their seats. There’s no reason to move because of North now.”“I said that Cynthia has to move!” Giselle slammed her cutlery onto the table and yelled, “Don’t think I don’t know what your intentions are!”Cynthia’s expression became stiff as she met Giselle’s gaze. Finally, she felt a bit afraid. She unhappily stood up and switched seats with North.With Giselle in a bad mood, no one dared to cause any more trouble. The meal began peacefully.When North regarded the food on the table, her eyes suddenly lit up. There was shrimp! But shelling

Cynthia gulped. That was not what she had meant at all!Giselle could tell at a glance what Cynthia was up to. “Since you think no one welcomes you here, why don’t you get lost? This is my birthday banquet, not somewhere you can play the victim!”Cynthia felt angry and wronged. Why was this old coot so annoying?! She had not wanted to attend this banquet…That was right, this was her birthday banquet! Cynthia’s eyes sparkled as she suddenly thought of something. “North, today is Grandma’s seventieth birthday. Grandma adores you. I wonder what you brought for her as a gift?”North raised an eyebrow. Cynthia had really not given up.“Why aren’t you speaking, North? Could it be that you didn’t even prepare Grandma a gift?” Cynthia intentionally faked confusion. “But Grandma is always so thoughtful of you. Wouldn’t it be rude if you didn’t even give her a present?”After she said that, everyone looked over at North in curiosity.That was right. It would be rude for someone in North’

North swiftly made her decision. “Since you’re so curious, Ms. Bracken, then let’s have a look.”Cynthia snickered when she heard this. There was no way that country bumpkin had a Pete Reuben painting. She would be humiliated very soon!Not long afterward, the butler came back with both gifts.The attendees could not help but exclaim, “It’s really ‘Birds Among Clouds’!”“This is definitely by Pete Reuben. The strokes are thin and even, and the birds look so lifelike. Ms. Bracken’s gift is so generous.”Cynthia joyfully opened the container holding North’s gifts. “Don’t just look at mine, everyone. Let’s look at what treasure North brought for Grandma… Oh, what’s this?”Everyone instinctively looked over and became stunned.This painting… was unrecognizable.Pete Reuben was currently one of the most famous painters. His works were familiar to everyone gathered. Each of his paintings was etched deeply in their memories.Yet, North’s gift was not one of those.Daniel and Cynthia

One of the other elite ladies said to garner favor, “Eleanor, you can’t say that. If Ms. North really cared about Madam Bracken, she would never give her a fake. When it comes down to it, she doesn’t respect Madam Bracken at all!“See, Madam Bracken? She’s only an outsider. She will never treat you as well as Cynthia does!”The more inferior North was made to seem, the more Cynthia appeared to care for Giselle.Gerald’s eyes narrowed as he spun his phone in his hand. He had not intended to intervene in this, but now, he was going against his word.Although he knew very well that North could handle this herself, he could not stand watching his wife being bullied.If this matter was not dealt with once and for all, the same thing would only happen again and again. And if that was the case…Gerald glanced down at his phone and dialed a number.At the same time, Andrew ordered in disgust, “Come and take this fake away. Don’t let it sully Madam Bracken’s eyes! Ms. North, the Bracken

All the attendees were confused. How could Pete say that it was a fake without even looking at it?Cynthia was anxious. She wanted to grab the phone from Gerald’s hand. “Gerry, actually…”However, she was too late. Pete said ungraciously, “I gave ‘Birds Among Clouds’ to one of the youngsters in my family. The painting is still in North Aurope now. Who would dare give Madam Bracken a fake?”…Cynthia’s brain buzzed loudly as she stood frozen in place. She was done for. She was going to be mocked within an inch of her life! Why could Gerald not be a little more considerate? How could he get Pete to expose her in front of everyone?!Everyone was stunned.Just now Cynthia had righteously said that North had brought a fake. But now, Pete had exposed Cynthia’s painting as being a fake!But had Andrew not authenticated the paintings? Had Cynthia not spent a lot of effort to buy this painting from Pete?North blinked. “Oh, so Ms. Bracken’s painting is the fake. It was all just a ploy

Cynthia’s mind suddenly went blank. This was impossible. Absolutely impossible!If North was someone Pete knew, then what would become of Cynthia? She would be a joke!Pete faked ignorance and slowly said, “Mr. Gerald, why has it suddenly gone quiet over there? Did I say something wrong?”Gerald slowly smiled as he waited for Pete’s next words.As expected, Pete told everyone in a very natural yet sheepish tone who he meant.“Or perhaps she’s offended Madam Bracken? North is a little willful. I’ll need to trouble you to look out for her, Mr. Gerald.”…North!That name made Cynthia go deathly pale. She swayed violently, and it looked like she would fall at any second.Eleanor’s and Daniel’s faces were as white as a sheet. They were filled with terror.They were done for. If North was someone Pete knew, then her painting had to be real. In that case…“Uncle Pete,” North suddenly went forward and said dejectedly toward the phone. “I’ve brought the birthday present, and Madam B
