Lucas shrugged faintly. “There was no point. I mean... Dad wouldn’t come anyway. He’s too busy. And you…” He met her gaze again, colder than before, just like his father, “There’s no benefit in you going.”

Clara flinched like she’d been struck. “What do you mean?”

“You’d just humiliate us again. You will give them the ultimate permission to keep tormenting us at school. So, no thank you, we would rather skip.”

It was as if Lucas had decided not to care about the consequences of his words a

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [87] The Horrifying Truth Behind Their Punishment

    Butler John stood there like a man dragged to the edge of a cliff, his usual polished composure stripped away, replaced by something far more human... fear. The kind that hollowed out his eyes and made his hands tremble despite his desperate attempt to hide it behind his back. “Go on,” Clara repeated, her voice lowll low, but filled with a threat so unmistakable it seemed to press down on everyone’s chest. “Tell them what you’ve been doing.” John swallowed hard. His gaze flickered first to Gloria, then to Victor, then to Adrian. A silent plea. A desperate search for rescue. But what he found instead... Was in panic. Victor looked away first, his jaw tightening, refusing to meet John’s eyes. Adrian’s face had gone rigid, the earlier arrogance completely gone now, replaced with something much uglier, calculation… and fear. And Gloria... Her expression darkened. Not with fear. But with a warning. A sharp, cutting look that said everything without a single word: 'Don’t you dare.'

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [86] Tell Them!

    “Wow! Then do it! Let me see who dared to threaten my family!” Every head snapped toward the entrance. “He doesn't need a bitch like you as a mother anyway!” The words cracked through the air like a whip, stunning everyone into silence. And then they saw her... Clara stood at the doorway breathing hard, fury radiating from her so intensely it felt almost untouchable. She clearly hadn’t taken time to prepare before coming. Her hair was still damp, dark strands clinging to her cheeks and neck. She wore simple clothes, slightly wrinkled, like she'd thrown them on in a rush without caring what anyone thought. Her face was flushed, chest rising and falling sharply from anger she was barely containing. But it was her eyes that froze the room. There was no fear or uncertainty. Only rage. Pure, blazing rage. "Mommy!" Both Sophie and Emily left their father and rushed to her. "My babies..." Clara crouched down immediately and engulfed them in a tight embrace. She closed her eyes a

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [85] He Doesn't Need You

    “If you don't want to lose the little control you still have in the company,” he said quietly, his voice lowering until it became something far more dangerous than shouting ever could, “then sit down… and stay out of my family business.” The room changed instantly and the shift was almost physical. Like the temperature had suddenly dropped. Gloria felt it the most. And for the briefest second, uncertainty flickered across her face. It was tiny, barely noticeable. But it was there. Because Jade rarely raised his voice. Rarely threatened anyone in his family. He would rather overlook than confront them. And that was exactly what made him terrifying. But Gloria Lockwood had spent her entire life refusing to bend. Pride had shaped her, fed her, turned her into the woman who stood at the top of the Lockwood family without apology. Backing down now, especially in front of everyone, would feel like surrender. And Gloria would rather burn the room down than surrender. “No,” she snapped

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [84] You Are Removed From Your Positions

    The silence that followed Jade’s declaration barely lasted a second before it fractured completely. It was impossible for it not to. Not in a room filled with people who had spent their entire lives wrapped in wealth, authority, and the dangerous belief that power made them untouchable. Pride lived in every corner of that room. Ego sat at the table with them. And Gloria, of all people, was not a woman who tolerated defiance, especially not from her own son. For years, she had controlled every conversation with nothing more than a look. Her composure had always been flawless, sharpened into something elegant and intimidating all at once. But now, for the first time in a very long time, cracks began to show. Her fingers tightened slowly around the edge of the table, the diamonds on her rings catching the light as her hand trembled almost imperceptibly. Her breathing became sharper, more controlled in the way people breathed when they were trying not to explode. Then fin

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [83] You Stopped Being My Mom Long Ago

    The threat was clear and direct, making everyone in the room held its breath. But Jade... Jade smiled. It definitely wasn't wasn’t warm or friendly. It was the kind of smile that made people wish they hadn’t spoken at all. “My place?” he repeated quietly, his voice soft... just too fucking soft. And the softness made it worse. Gloria’s fingers curled slightly against the table. Jade walked towards a seat without another word, before he sat down as if nothing had just happened, like a king settling onto his throne, unbothered, untouchable before he gives his final verdict. Connor and Evelyn exchanged quick glances before moving closer. “Jade…” Evelyn said carefully, her voice gentle but cautious. “Calm down. Let’s handle this properly. Don't let your anger dictate for you, please.” Connor added, his tone low but firm, “Yes, bro. Evelyn is right. Don’t make it worse than it already is. Let's talk about this calmly. And trust me, Lucas was amazing. He defended himself and

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [82] Gloria’s Fear

    Back at the mansion, the air felt different the moment Jade stepped inside. It was heavy, thick, and suffocating, like the walls themselves had already sensed what was about to unfold and were bracing for it. Conversations died the second he crossed the threshold. Even the faint clinking of cutlery had stopped, leaving behind a silence that felt unnatural, stretched too tight, like something would snap if anyone dared to speak too loudly. Jade didn’t remove his coat. Didn’t loosen his tie. Didn’t acknowledge anyone at the dining table, not his brothers, not their wives, not the relatives who had moments ago been talking so freely. He didn’t even look at them. And somehow, that was worse. Because his presence alone was enough to command attention. “Lucas.” His voice cut through the silence smoothly. The kind of calm that made people uneasy. Lucas, who had been standing stiffly near him, immediately straightened. For a brief second, he hesitated, not because he was afraid of Ja

    Back in the living area, Clara finally paused watching as the last of the boxes were carried upstairs. “Be careful with that one,” she said softly. “It’s fragile.” She said one last time. Only God knows how many times she'd said that phrase. “Yes, ma’am.” The workers disappeared, leaving the spac

    Jade simply went still. He locked in place as though every nerve in his body had been seized at once. His spine straightened, his shoulders tightened and his breath slowed. His eyes sharpened with a dangerous, almost predatory clarity, because that word, that one fragile, trembling word, had sli

    Silence fell heavily on the other end as if Vanessa couldn’t process it, but Clara continued anyway, her tone dropping lower, quieter, far more dangerous, “I mean it. Whatever you’re playing at… I’m not interested. You fucking call my phone again and I will personally kill you for sure. You can try

  • I Am Their Mother: Rebirth Of The Wicked Stepmother    [26] Sleepless Night

    The night had long since settled into silence, not the gentle, forgiving kind that eases the mind into rest, not the soft hush that wraps around a person like a lullaby until even the most stubborn thoughts dissolve, but something far heavier, far more suffocating, a stillness that stretched endless
