Though she was used to quarreling and bantering with her mom since young, this was the first ever cold war between them, and it really pained her.
"Mom! Do you... really not want me anymore?"
Hearing the crying tone in Ivana's voice, Summer Gardner looked at her crumpled little face, her heart ached tremendously.
"Did I not want you? You're the one who doesn't want me!"
"How did I not want you?" Ivana raised her face to look at her, "Even though I was picked up by you from a rubbish bin, I have always treated you as my real mom!"
Summer was nearly crying. Hearing this, she just chuckled and playfully poked Ivana on her forehead.
"You silly girl, you wish to anger me to death, don't you?!"
Ivana wrapped her arms around her waist, "Mom... I'm sorry, please forgive me this time... If you don't forgive me, I'll just hold onto you like this, I'll never get up!"
Listening to Ivana's pretend cry and coquettish voice made Summer feel furious and in pain.
