My Mommy Is A CEO

“We also found it strange,” Kyle agreed. “But when Miss Davidson confronted Mr. Wood that day, her words were intense and didn’t seem like she was intentionally accusing him…”

At this point, Libby’s face darkened and Kyle quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, I was just guessing randomly. Mrs. Wood, please don’t blame me.”

Libby stood still with a cold expression on her face. Kyle’s words had already shown his position – even if she had doubts about her son, she would always be biased towards him. So she stopped in her tracks and said coldly,

“Thank you for walking me here, Kyle. I’ll just take a taxi home from here.”

“I’ll help you call a cab.” Kyle hurried to the side of the road and waved down a taxi for Libby.

After Libby got into the car, he leaned over to the window as it started moving away and said,

“Mrs. Wood, I’m really sorry about today; I spoke out of turn earlier. If possible, I hope you won’t tell Mr. Wood what I said today or else our CEO will punish me.”

Libby wasn’t unreasonable; although she didn’t like Kyle’s speculation about her son, she understood his difficulties. So she replied coldly,

“I know you meant well too; don’t worry, I won’t say anything.”

“Thank you, Mrs. Wood.” Kyle smiled lightly as he watched the car drive away, his smile deepening.

As sunset approached, Libby returned to Nia’s apartment. Her usually peaceful state of mind had been completely destroyed by what Kyle said today. Just thinking about what he said made Libby feel uneasy in this apartment.

Could it be…

No way! Casper was definitely not that kind of person!

But why hadn’t Nia come back? This was clearly her home… and what was up with that recording?

Although Libby tried hard to find various reasons for her son, she couldn’t ignore the facts any longer. She began to take notice of Casper’s changes.

Around seven o’clock, Casper came back as usual. As soon as he entered the living room, he noticed something was off with Libby. So pretending everything was fine, he asked her,

“Mom, what’s wrong? You look so gloomy.”

“Casper, you come over here. I have something to ask you.” Libby patted next to her to ask him what was going on with Nia.

Casper’s eyes narrowed slightly, but obediently walked over and sat next to Libby. He smiled, “Mom, is everything okay? Why do you look so serious?”

“I’m asking where Nia is now?” Libby asked sternly.

Casper’s heart sank, and instead of answering, he asked, “Mom, did you meet someone today? Did you hear something?”

“Sure enough, you broke up with Nia?!” Seeing Casper change the subject again, Libby looked even more serious.

Casper shrugged indifferently. She had asked several times before, so he might as well tell her and save himself the trouble of being annoyed.

“We broke up, but so what? Haven’t you always disliked her?”

“I don’t like her, but I dislike your actions even more!” Libby said sharply.

“Mom, what do you mean by that?” Casper’s expression began to turn cold as he heard Libby speak.

“Did you have her kidnapped and hurt?” Libby asked coldly, staring at her son.

“Who exactly told you these things…” Casper’s eyes were cold as he asked Libby gloomily.

Libby was not foolish. When she saw her son, instead of arguing, he was eager to ask who leaked the secret. Her suspicions were basically confirmed, and she angrily said,

“Casper, is this how your dad and I taught you?!”

“If it were my dad, he might be even more ruthless than me…” Casper sneered.

Upon hearing Casper’s words, Libby stood up angrily and pointed at him to reprimand him.

“Are you still daring to talk about your dad? Your dad holds a high position and has many unavoidable responsibilities, but even though he can be ruthless, he has never resorted to using a woman as a tool. Yet you did!”

In the end, Libby was so angry that she couldn’t speak.

“Mom, I don’t know who told you these things, but you don’t even listen to my explanation and just assume that I’m wrong. It’s really unfair to me.” Casper felt really annoyed with explaining, but he had to pretend in order to calm Libby down.

“What else is there to explain when you hurt a woman just to compete for the company?!” Libby exclaimed angrily.

“I admit that I want Stable Growth, but making such drastic moves is also because Nia herself is not restrained!” Casper argued loudly with a look of sorrow and indignation.

“You only heard people say that I hurt her, and do you know how she hurt me? Did that person tell you that Nia hooked up with Kevin, the vice president, and the two of them secretly have affairs behind my back? And she still looks fearless after being discovered by me. How can I tolerate her belittling me like this!”

“What? Nia having an affair with a subordinate?” Libby was stunned.

“Who do you think is responsible for the success of Stable Growth? I helped Nia a lot when I was in school, and I taught her about many investment projects. But in the end, she betrayed my trust and slandered me in front of everyone. Mom, you took her side without knowing the whole story and scolded me. Do you know how much pain I’ve been through?”

After speaking, there were red threads in Casper’s eyes, as if he was really aggrieved.

Upon hearing this, Libby felt a sense of sorrow. She had no idea that her son had suffered such grievances. A mother’s heart is the most easily shaken, and seeing her son with a sad and angry expression, she quickly sat back next to him and softly said,

“Casper, I didn’t know all these things happened… I was wrong to blame you.”

Casper pursed his lips and remained silent.

Libby reassured,

“I just feel that… no matter how angry a man is, he cannot hurt a woman like this, so…”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

“The way Nia treated me, I could tear her to pieces!” Casper meant it when he said, “If you think your son is mean, I can’t help it.”

“Casper…” Libby caressed Casper’s hand back, feeling heartbroken for a moment.

Casper glanced at Libby from the corner of his eye and asked her,

“Mom, I’ve been hiding it from you because I didn’t want you to worry. But today someone actually badmouthed me in front of you. Please tell me who he is. I’ll go talk to him!”

Libby was about to say Kyle’s name, but suddenly a thought flashed through her mind. She wasn’t completely blinded by emotions, even though Casper had explained Nia’s situation. The recording was still a mystery, so she said instead,

“I met a few madams and they told me about it.”
