FORGIVE US MY DEAR SISTER - Season 3 Episode 6

Could it be that she, like Andrew, came to question and blame me?

Since the camera crew turned off the live stream at the hotel to allow guests to relax and th viewers to

take a break, they weren’t following Simone at this moment.

Salma walked up to Simone and looked at her with gentle eyes. “Simone, I want to talk to

Simone also wanted to know why Salma had come.

If it was about Jodie, she would have no qualms about confronting her.

She said to Zac and the others, “You guys go back to your rooms and rest. I’ll come up later?

“Okay!” Zac and the others nodded and left first.

In the elevator, eira curiously speculated. “Is that woman Simone’ s biological mother?” Otherwise, she

couldn’t think of anyone who would come to find Simone at this period.

Since he had seen Salma at a dinner party before. Zac nodded. “Yeah. She’s her biological mother.”

This surprised the others.

“Do not tell me she’s here to blame Simone for bullying Jodie. eira expressed her concern Zac

laughed and said. “Do you think Simone would allow herself to get bullied?” Upon hearing that. eira

suddenly smiled. “You’re right. Simone isn’t someone who would allow

She now somewhat understood Simone’s character.

Simone will respond with even greater kindness if someone is kind to her.

But if someone wants to cause trouble, she won’t show them respect and will settle the grudge on the spot.

Harry also felt relieved after hearing what Zac said.

In the hotel’s lobby. Simone looked at Salma, who only showed this gentle and kind smile when she

had just returned home.

Because of these moments, she later wanted to treat them well, thinking of them as her own family.

Yet, she never thought they would all believe Jodie and assume she was causing trouble under Jodie’s

instigation, insinuation, and petty little tricks.

to tak in you. Let’s have dinner together,” she said,

Simone shook her head and turned her down. “There’s nothing for us to talk about. If there’s

something, just say it here. Otherwise, I will go back to my room and rest.

She had no interest in having a heart-to-heart talk with Salma.

If truth be told, she did hope for it when she first returned home in her previous life. But as time went

on, her heart grew colder, and she no longer had any expectations.

Salma was taken aback, clearly not expecting Simone to refuse.

She furrowed her brows slightly and elaborated, “I just wanted you to accompany me for dinner. Is that

not possible?” Simone looked at her with a half-smile. “Mrs. Gray, we’re not close enough to have

dinner together.”

At once, Salma looked at her in disbelief. “I’m your Mom! How are we not close?” Simone raised an

eyebrow and said, “Didn’t we cut ties long ago? Have you aged so much that you become so

forgetful?” Salma felt a pang in her heart upon hearing these harsh words.

Then, she took a deep breath. “There’s no grudge between a mother and daughter that lasts overnight.

We were misled by Jodie’s instigation and insinuation before, which resulted in misunderstandings

between us. But now that we know it was a misunderstanding, we want to clear the air with you.”

Simone smiled indifferently and said, “There’s nothing to clear up. Since we’ve already cut our ties, it’s

better not to have any further entanglements.”

After that, she bluntly added, “It’s totally unnecessary if you’re here to reconcile with me. I won’t take

back my words and the decisions I’ve made. To me, you are merely a stranger now. As long as you

don’t actively provoke and bother me, I will pay no attention to you either. But I will make you regret it if

you do cause trouble. Just like your sons-I have dealt with each one of them, haven’t I?”

“By saying this, Mrs. Gray, you should be able to understand my attitude, right?” she asked, which

caused Salma to feel embarrassed. “Are you really not going to acknowledge us?” Simone chuckled

and said, “It’s not that I’m not going to. Instead, we are no longer related.”

Feeling aggrieved, Salma explained, “I admit we had misunderstood you because of Jodie. But I did

treat you well, too!” Indeed, she truly wanted to make up for lost time when Simone finally recognized

them again.

After all, she and Steven had five sons and only one daughter. Hence, they both treasured

they adopted Jodie because she was the same age as their missing daughter.

urthermore, à geomancy master told them that Jodie could assist them in locating their biological daughter.

However, their daughter was never found. As a result, Salma transferred all her maternal affection to

Jodie.

Having been raised by the Gray Family for over a decade, Jodie had become obedient, sensible, and

reliant on them.

When Simone returned to the Gray Residence, Jodie felt insecure and subtly hinted at a

mistreatment.

This led to their increased favoritism toward Jodie.

While Salma loved the adoptive daughter she had raised, she also held love for her biological daughter.

Simone sneered, “Yes, you did treat me well, but haven’t I already repaid you? Moreover, haven’t I paid

an even greater price? Do you honestly believe that a small act of kindness can make me indebted to

you for life?” She bluntly added, “Why are you so shameless?” She caught a fever not long after she

returned to the Gray Residence.

After sending her to the hospital, Salma stayed by her side all night, showing genuine

concern.

At that time, Simone was touched, which prompted her to treat Salma with increasing kindness.

She prepared medicinal meals, provided massages, and reminded her to take her medicine daily.

However, she never expected such caring behavior to be short-lived and easily punctured when

compared to Jodie.
