Chapter 176
“Bonnie?” A familiar voice sounded from behind, interrupting Bonnie's thoughts.
She was shocked when she turned to see who it was. “Mom?”
The middle-aged woman was not Vera but Bonnie's foster mother, Welma. Not
only was Welma there, but she also brought Gerald and Bonnie's younger
brother, Benedict.
“Dad, Benny, why are you here?”
“It's been five years, Bonnie. You've grown into a beautiful young lady.” Welma’s
eyes reddened as she embraced Bonnie tremblingly.
“I'm sorry we haven't contacted you much these past few years, Bonnie. We
haven't even visited you once. It's not that we don't care. We didn’t want our
background to make you and Trina the city’s laughingstock.” Tears ran down
Welma's cheeks as she spoke.
Even Gerald became teary-eyed while Benedict turned aside to wipe away his
tears discreetly.
Welma added, “I wanted to visit you for your 20th birthday and Trina for her
engagement party. But your dad was worried we would embarrass you two if we
showed up that day. That's why we waited until today to visit.”
“It's okay, Mom. Stop crying, okay? If you keep crying, I'm going to cry, too.”
Bonnie took out a handkerchief to wipe away her foster mother’s tears.
“Yeah, we finally get to meet our daughter, and you're crying so much. What's
that supposed to mean?” Gerald sighed and then looked at Bonnie, saying, “The
Shepards are too high-class for us. We knew we would stand out like a sore
thumb and embarrass you and Trina. Hey, could you go in
and call Trina out? We have birthday gifts for you two.”
“Sure thing, Dad.” Bonnie turned and rang the doorbell, which puzzled the trio.
They did not understand why Bonnie had to ring the doorbell to her family's
house.
“Who is it?” The butler walked over. When he saw Bonnie, he became hostile.
“Oh, it's you. I'd prefer not to let you in, but Madam Vera told me you'd be coming
to get your stuff. Quick, collect your things
and leave.”
The trio felt something was amiss. Benedict asked, “Bonnie, what's going on?
Why's he talking to you like that? What are you here to collect?”
Bonnie frowned and was about to explain, but the butler sneered and said, “You
guys don't know, huh? The Shepards have disowned Bonnie.”
“What?! Is that true?” Gerald trembled and almost fell over.
Welma was on the verge of tears, saying, “Bonnie, that can't be true.”
Bonnie felt bitter but nodded and said, “They look down on me. It's official.
They've disowned me. I'll

The trio was shocked.
