Chapter 193 Shameless Couple
Betty reflexively turned around upon hearing her name. Upon seeing who it was, her eyes instantly became red
from oncoming tears. Then, she grabbed Nicole’s hands. “Nicole? Is it really you? Oh, Nicole!”
It was because of this accident that they caused quite the traffic. With that, Nicole hurriedly helped Betty up while
suggesting, “Ms. Betty, let’s get in the car first. We’ll talk elsewhere.”
“Okay, okay.” Betty hurriedly nodded at that, tears already pooling in her eyes as she looked at Nicole.
As Nicole helped Betty to the back seat, Whitney tacitly took over the wheel.
Nicole’s mother took Betty with her when she married into the Anderson Family. Betty had even watched Nicole
growing up. However, after her mother divorced William, Lydia came up with an excuse to drive Betty out.

Judging from Betty’s hoary look, Nicole could tell she hadn’t been doing well these past few years. Her heart ached
at the revelation.
She was also surprised that Betty was still alive because when Nicole was little and wanted to look for Betty, Lydia
told her Betty had passed.
“You’re still alive, Nicole. You’re really still alive!” Betty choked with sobs as she wiped her tears away.
Nicole also felt a lump in her throat. Ever since her mother had passed, she hadn’t received love from any elder.
“Ms. Betty, can you please tell me what happened to you?”
With a sigh, Betty recounted, “With no children, I had to survive on my own after Lydia chased me out. Luckily, your
mother had paid me generously back then, or I wouldn’t be able to get by until today.”
Nicole’s eyes were red-rimmed as she latched her gaze at Betty. After her mother left Anderson Residence, William
quickly married Lydia. Then, a couple of months later, Lydia claimed Betty to be a thief and drove her out after
successfully discovering the ‘swag’.
She could already tell right from wrong then and she knew Betty would never steal. It was merely Lydia’s excuse to
drive Betty out.
And since then, she never saw Betty again…
“You must’ve had it rough all these years, Ms. Betty,” Nicole lamented.
As she was struck with a thought, Betty grabbed Nicole’s hand and stared into her eyes, exclaiming, “Nicole, your
mother didn’t cheat on your father!”
Nicole nodded at that. “That, I know. It’s surely just William’s excuse for a divorce!”
Because of her mother’s ‘infidelity’, William forced her mother to end their marriage with nothing left in her name.
However, ironically, he was the cheater with a love child of the same age as Nicole!
“It’s not like that, Nicole.” Betty shook her head, then explained, “Back then, Lydia hired a man to defile your
mother! After learning of it, I went to William, but he was dead set on your mother cheating on him. That’s why
they divorced!”
Betty’s words had rendered Nicole in shock. She knew William slandered her mother for infidelity, but who’d have
thought there was this reason?!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTo that, she asked, “Does William know about this then?”
Betty shook her head. “I don’t know, but he had long wanted a divorce. So, after knowing your mother cheated on
him, he forced her to leave the marriage with nothing in her name. He didn’t even so much as question her.”
Nicole was disheartened at that. She knew William and Lydia were no good people, but who’d have thought they
played a part in that incident.
She clenched her fists, outraged by her mother’s injustice!
The only reason why the Anderson Family could rise to the riches was that her mother used her family wealth, or
how could William be blessed with what he had now when he had nothing back then?
“Where are you staying, Ms. Betty? Whitney can drop you off there. Give me a few days to settle down, then you
can move in with me,” Nicole said softly. She had never seen Betty as a servant.
However, Betty rejected her offer, shaking her head. “I’m already happy to know that you’re doing okay, Nicole. I’m
doing okay myself too. Don’t worry about me.”
Seeing Nicole wanted to say more, she continued, “By the way, one more thing. I visited your mother after she fell
seriously ill. When I went, I saw Lydia leaving the hospital.”
