Chapter 1424

Rhea placed the wooden case on the desk, thought for a moment, then brought the pen holder to the front.

Turning around, she took two steps away, then returned to put the wooden case inside the pen holder.She took out several pens

and pencils, fit them nicely inside, and let out a slight sigh of relief.She took her clothes and a towel, then went to take a hot bath

in the bathroom, as she had not been hfor many days.

Although there were bathrooms and restrooms at the research institute, she could not take a nice bath there as they were not well-

equipped.

Lying in the bathtub, she felt her overworked mind and body start to relax, and she grew sleepy.

After stime, Rhea jerked awake and was shocked to realize she had fallen asleep in the bathtub and there were footsteps

outside.

Her brain grew sharp immediately, and she quickly rose from the bathtub.

Putting on a bathrobe, she neared the door and heard the footsteps stop outside, not far away.

She suddenly pulled the door The bathroom door creaked loudly as it opened.

"Jeez!"

Clapping her hand to her chest, Maria was startled, and her face paled.

Having entered quietly, she saw the light in the quiet bathroom was on and did not call for Rhea as she guessed her daughter

could be taking a bath.

She did not expect the door to suddenly swing open and startle her.

"What are you doing?!"

Frowning, Rhea looked impatient.

"I-I thought you hadn't eaten anything, so | got someone to make you breakfast.I'm bringing it to you," she said, somewhat

embarrassed, as she pointed at the breakfast on the desk.

All other stuff on the desk had been pushed aside to make room for her breakfast.

Rhea’s pupils constricted.She strode over, picked up the pen holder, and grew relaxed seeing the wooden case still inside.She

glanced at the pancakes and frowned.

"Do not enter my room without my permission next time!"

"Ree, | was just bringing you breakfast.Besides, I'm your mother.Why can’t | enter your room?" Maria said indignantly.

"Fine, enter the room as you please then, and I'll just stay outside. This is your house anyway!"

She got up and went to take her clothes from the closet, acting as though she was about to leave.

Maria panicked and clutched her robe.

"Ree, | didn’t mean that.Fine, | won't enter your room without your permission, alright?"

Rhea stopped taking out her clothes when she heard this.

Maria was helpless.

"Ree, | know you went abroad to study for too long and aren't close to me, but you're my child, after all. There shouldn't be a

grudge between a mother and her daughter, and you can’t always treatlike an enemy.l only have one daughter..."

"Are you sure?" Rhea interrupted her and let out a cold chuckle.

"Don’t you have two daughters???"

When she was young, Maria used to say this to Anastasia in her presence: "Although | didn’t give birth to you, | treat you as my

daughter, and you're dearer tothan my own! Now that your mom isn’t around, I'll always be your mother!"

Rhea had heard things like this so many times that she was numb.

“‘Fine.If she enjoys becoming Anastasia’s mother, then go ahead! If she doesn’t appreciateas her daughter, | wouldn't

appreciate her as my mother either."
