The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt)

Chapter 303

Haylan was furious as he looked at the emerald pendant on the floor.

It was a top-grade spirit stonel

It was a protective treasure!

This was a peerless treasure that he had specially made for Felicia. It was a true priceless treasure.

He had repeatedly reminded Felicia to wear it on her body and never be separated from it.

Felicia had also had the emerald appraised. She knew its value, yet she still gave such an expensive and unique treasure to Mrs. Labenz as a farewell gift

In the end, Mrs. Labenz lat ked good judgment and actually smashed this emerald pendant.

This was not just about shattering a stone. It was clearly shattering Felicia’s filial piety.

Anger spread in Haylan’s chest.

He turned around and stared at Mrs. Labenz with raging anger.

If the other party were not his grandmother, he would have slapped her.

After smashing the jewelry box, Mrs. Labenz glared at Felicia and said, “I don’t care about your lousy thing. Take your fake stuff back and get the hell out of here, you jinx!

ow on, don’t appear in front of me again”

Felicia’s entire body trembled. Her face was pale, and tears flowed from her eyes. She was extremely sad.

Mrs. Labenz’s throw did not sharter the emerald pendant, but it shattered Felicia’s heart.

Felicia looked at Mrs. Labenz with red eyes and tears. She chokingly said, “Mom, I’m your daughter too. Why haven’t you loved me at all nce I was a child?

“I got first place in the exam, but you made me cat alone in a corner and let Marilyn and Harry, who ranked last in the exam, eat at the table and have chicken drumsticks!

“Meanwhile, I ate leftovers from the previous day in the corner!

“Everything I’ve done since I was young, you don’t like it. You often scolded me, beat me, and speak harsh words to me.

“I didn’t dare to ask in the past. I always feel that I haven’t done well enough.

“Now, I want to ask you. What did I do wrong? Why are you treating me like this? Why?”

At first, Felicia asked in a choked voice. Toward the end, she became more and more agitated. Tears streamed down her face as she roared hysterically.

All the grievances, doubts, and humiliation she had accumulated over the past few decades burst out at this moment.

She mustered up the courage and stared at Mrs. Labenz with red, teary eyes. Her voice, however, was quavering. It was filled with sorrow and despair. Anyone who heard it would be moved.

“Mom”

Floris, Yelena, and Harris hurriedly went forward and pulled their mother. Their eyes were filled with worry.

Charlie also turned teary. He hugged his wife and could not say a word.

He knew his wife too well.

For the past few decades, Felicia had always yearned for Mrs. Labenz’s love and the warmth of a family.

However, no one on the side of Mrs. Labenz’s family took Felicia seriously. Neither did they care nor love her. All they gave Felicia were mockery, disdain, contempt, and hurt.

The scariest thing was that neither he nor Felicia knew why Mrs. Labenz was so prejudiced against Felicia.

Was it because they were poor?

Mrs. Labenz was expressionless and calm as she looked at Felicia crying like this. There was even a sense of cold anger flashing in her eyes.

In her eyes, Felicia’s crying like this on such an occasion was clearly a way of humiliating her and making her lose face. Looking at Felicia, who was heartbroken and in despair, Mrs. Labenz’s eyes were cold. She coldly scolded her, saying, “Why are you crying?

Tl be emigrating and this is my farewell banquet. Felicia, you’re here to deliver fake stuff to

not dead yet. Are you crying as you go to the grave?

“You disgraceful thing. Stop crying!”

Her voice was cold. It was filled with condemnation and disgust. There was no sense of affection between a mother and a daughter at all.

Upon hearing this, Felicia could not help but cry even more. She gritted her teeth and asked, “Mom, I just want to know why

you treat me like this?”

“You want to know why, huh?” Mrs. Labenz said. “Let me tell you!”

Before Mrs. Labenz spoke, Marilyn stepped forward immediately and said coldly, “Felicia, that’s because you’re a jinx who can harm the Labenz family!”

“Jinx?” Felicia said. She was stunned.

Mrs. Labenz’s gaze was cold. She said in a serious voice, “Marilyn is right. Felicia, the astrologer said that your astrology chart clashes with the Labenz family. You’re the jinx who can bring misfortune to the Labenz family!

“If you lead a comfortable life, then none of us in the Labenz family will lead a comfortable life. Some may even die.

“On the contrary, if you were to die, our whole family would live happily, abundantly, and prosperously”

Crack!

This remark was like a bolt from the blue, leaving Felicia almost dumbfounded.

She had originally thought that her mother and sister had treated her so badly because she had done something wrong. She had always blamed herself and felt that she had not done well.

It turned out that the real reason was so ridiculous.

“Astrologers’ words are outdated superstition,” Charlie said in a deep voice. “How can you believe them?”

“Why not?” Mrs. Labenz said.

Mrs. Labenz glared at Charlie and said coldly, “When she was five years old, she had a stroke of good luck and found 20 dollars on the street. She used the money to buy a lot of delicious food to eat at home..

“As a result, on that day, everyone in our family, except for her, suffered from diarrhea and had to be hospitalized!

“On another occasion, she scored a perfect hundred on her exam. Our family business plummeted and almost went bankrupt!”

“The most significant occasion was when she dated a wealthy scion.” Harry added. “As a result, Mom and I almost got hit by a

“After she came of age, she was accepted into the best university in the city,” Marilyn added. “On the day she received the admission letter, everyone in our family caught a severe cold. All of us were hospitalized, and she was the only one who was

fine!”

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other.

“There are actually such incidents?” they thought.

Mrs. Labenz gritted her teeth and said in a serious voice, “The astrologer said that her destiny clashes with ours. When she has good luck, we’ll have bad luck.

“We’ll only have good luck if she has bad luck.

“We didn’t believe it at first, but as she had more and more good luck, the Labenz family’s life did indeed become more and more miserable.

“Felicia, this is all your fault. It’s because of you that the Labenz family has suffered, and you almost cause the death of me and your younger brother!

“Therefore, I will never treat you well in this lifetime. I was the one who broke up your marriage with the wealthy scion. I was the one who personally sent you to the side of a poor loser like Charlie.

“For the sake of the Labenz family, and for the sake of your brother, I have to constantly torture you and make your life increasingly miserable!

“In fact, I look forward to your death every day. Why aren’t you dead yet?

“If you really want to treat me well, get out of here immediately and never appear in my line of sight again. Be poor forever. It’s best if you get cancer and die without a resting place!”

Stabl

These words were like sharp knives stabbing into Felicia’s heart, making her heart hurt so much that it felt like it was about to split.

Every slash drew blood!

Every slash was fatall

Felicia fell to the ground as if she had been electrocuted. Her pupils dilated, and her face was very pale.

She had never thought that her mother would want her dead!

In an instant, she was overwhelmed with grief Tears streamed down her face, and she could not say a word.

“Felicia!”

Charlie rushed over to help Felicia up. His eyes were filled with worry. “Are you alright?” he said.

“Mom.”

Floris, Yelena, and others were also worried.

Haylan looked even more furious.

Hurtful words could have a profound impact on someone’s emotions.

Mrs. Labenz’s words completely shattered Felicia’s heart.

Even a normal person would not utter such cruel words!

“Is this something that a human would say?” Haylan thought.

The person

who said such cruel words was his very own grandmother.

Haylan’s gaze was cold. He stretched out his hand. The emerald pendant on the ground was then drawn into his grasp. He stared coldly at Mrs. Labenz and said in a serious voice, “Out of respect

for my mother, I address you as ‘Grandma’

“You are wrong about this matter, and your mistake is quite outrageous.

“My mother isn’t a jinx. You’re the one who lacks good judgment and has no knowledge about emeralds.

“You are simply unworthy of being a mother!”
