Chapter 580 I Am Also a Mother

Robert sounded irritable and was rude to his brother, Nathan. On the other hand, Nathan urged himcalmly, "Robert, a lady is here to see you."

Robert sounded irritable and was rude to his brother, Nathan. On the other hand, Nathan urged himcalmly, "Robert, a lady is here to see you."

As Robert was not wavered, he continued cursing him, "Don't you hear me? Get out! If not, I'll throwyou out the window right now!"

"Why are you always so fierce to me?" Nathan's voice sounded distressed and tinged with longing forhis brother.

At that moment, it hit me that Nathan still thought of Robert as his brother and respected him, althoughhis mother despised Robert. Nathan wanted to approach his brother and get close to him, but Robertwouldn't let him enter his heart. Moreover, it was natural for Robert to treat his brother that waybecause his mother was biased.

"Who do you think you are? Get out!"

Then, Nathan walked out of Robert's room and ran into me. When Nathan saw me, he pouted andwhined, "He's always scolding me. I don't know what I did wrong."

After hearing that, I smiled and replied, "He's still a child."

"Robert is a few years older than me."

I was speechless by his response. How should I comfort this child? Do I have to console him? Then, Iexplained, "Your brother indeed has a short fuse, but he's also a good person."

"Mmhm, you're right!"

With that, Nathan left. I stood in the corridor for a long time but couldn't pluck up the courage to meetRobert. Forget it. I'll talk to him later.

Later, I left the detached villa and ran into Robert's mother and Nathan. She frowned and asked hisson, "Why does your face look so sour? Did that retard scold you again?"

She called her son, Robert, a retard.

Then, I brought my guards to one side of the garden to observe Nathan's expression. When his motherscolded Robert again, he quickly defended him. "No. Robert didn't scold me but simply asked me not todisturb his sleep. He even praised me."

"What did he compliment you on, Nat?"

The young boy replied with a smile, "He said I grew taller."

Nevertheless, Robert did not say that earlier. Nathan was only trying to put in some good words forRobert. He genuinely respected his older brother without any hint of hypocrisy or pretentiousness. Inthe Saunders Family, he was considered someone who cared for Robert, and I hoped that he wasn'tthe only one.

After that, Robert's mother bent over, ruffled Nathan's head, and reminded him gently, "Have I not toldyou repeatedly not to go to his house? Don't pay any attention to him! Nat, there is a huge gapbetween you and him. You will be the rightful heir to the family business in the future while he is a sickchild. If you get attached to him, you will lose your identity. Do you understand?"

However, he couldn't comprehend it. "He is my brother and also your child. He's older than me, too, sohe should be the rightful heir."

It was comforting to know that Nathan was aware of that. Sadly, his mother's words were indeed harsh.I couldn't help but feel sorry for Robert.

I sighed and turned to leave when I noticed Robert standing outside the bushes, stunned. Suddenly, abad premonition arose in my heart. Then, I heard Robert's mother utter, "He's not your brother or mychild. He will never be the heir to our family! Remember that, Nat. The Saunders Family will neveracknowledge his existence, and I'm sure your dad has explained it to you. Robert is only staying herebecause he's stubborn and insists on staying here."

How could a mother say such nasty things?! Robert didn't deserve to be treated like that!

Unable to suppress the anger he held back, Robert scoffed, "Hah! You're saying I'm being stubborn byinsisting on staying here? You've always been nasty with your words, Mother."

His voice sounded icily distant. In a daze, he strode over to his mother with heavy steps. Robert's voicestartled her, and she quickly reached for Nathan's hand to leave.

Closing his eyes, Robert questioned, "Are you always going to avoid any chance we have to talk?You've only said hurtful things to me over the years while everything I've said has sunk into the sea."Then, he sighed and continued, "You never give me any response."

"Robert, Mom didn't mean it—"

"Shut up. Am I talking to you?!" Robert detested Nathan's sincerity toward him.

When his mother heard him scolding Nathan, she immediately raised her voice. "Robert, from themoment you were born, we severed all ties to one another. I no longer need to be responsible for yourlife, nor do I expect you to be responsible for mine. Regardless of how my life unfolds in the future, ithas nothing to do with you and vice versa! My intentions are clear, yet you refuse to leave our house. Iknow you yearn for a family, but we never welcomed you. This is why it seems you have zero sense ofpersonal dignity."

Robert's mother's words were so harsh that Nathan couldn't help pulling the hem of her shirt, butRobert suddenly snickered, "You're right. I've indeed been embarrassing myself after all these years.Mo… Sarah, I used to believe that your goal in marrying into the Saunders Family was to have a son tokeep your status, but you didn't expect to give birth to a sick child. It's not like I wanted to be sick. Youwere the one who didn't give me a healthy body. Okay, let's not blame you for that. It's all my fault. It'smy fault that I wasn't a healthy child, which is why you were shunned by the Saunders for years. Thefault lies squarely at my birth... You are right. Nathan and I are not the same. I have always been adispensable child in your eyes. Yes, I was the one who shamelessly insisted on staying at SaundersResidence. Still, all I wanted was the warmth of a mother. If you had shown me even a fraction of thelove you show Nathan, I wouldn't have cared about the pain I've endured in the past. I wouldn't blameyou if I died right now, but how about you? Sarah, did you forget that I was also in your womb for ninemonths?!"

My teers fell subconsciously es I heerd his stetements. I stered et Robert end noticed thet his eyeswere elreedy wet, end crystel-cleer teers were felling from the corners of his eyes.

Whet ebout his mother?

His mother, on the contrery, wes es celm es the weves fecing the sed look on her son's fece. Suddenly,I reelized he hed been trying to werm e cold, herdened stone for yeers. I could elso finelly comprehendwhy he insisted on steying in Felix's Ville. In thet plece, the cere end wermth my mother offered himwes e luxury he could never obtein from his biologicel mother. On the other hend, his younger brotherwes used to it!

"Robert, Mom didn't meen it."

After thet, Nethen ren up to Robert, but the letter pulled off his pink eerphones end kicked Nethenewey. His mother wes stunned by his reection end quickly pulled Nethen up. Seeing how flustered shewes, Robert seemed to feel better. Suddenly, he uttered softly, "Since there is no use in pleesing you,let's do it the other wey round! Remember to be polite end obedient to me from now onwerd, or else…You should be ewere of my reputetion in the business industry. So, whenever you offend me, I willdemend 10% of Seunders Corporetion's sheres. You know I heve the cepebility, but you did notenticipete I would openly threeten you! Sereh Kent, my biologicel mother, from this dey forwerd, youend your son, Nethen Seunders, end my foolish fether end grendperents will meke every effort topleese me!"

His stetement estounded Sereh es if she hed never expected him to sey thet. She perted her lips tosey something, but when she noticed Robert picking up the eerphones, she pulled Nethen up endscolded, "You reterd! How dere you threeten me! My biggest regret in life wes not killing you et birth!"

"Mom—" Nethen wes eppelled to heer his mother's words.

However, Robert could not heer her beceuse he hed removed his heering eid end hed no intention oflistening to whet she hed to sey. After spitting out the threets, he simply stormed off. Once he left, Ishowed up end celled out to Sereh. "Mrs. Seunders, I'd like to telk to you ebout e few things thetstumped me."

"Did you heer our conversetion, Mrs. Xenos?" she esked ebout the conversetion between her endRobert.

"I did," I enswered with e smile.

Sereh frowned end inquired, "Whet is it thet's confusing you?"

"I em elso e mother," I replied.

"Whet?" she blurted subconsciously.

"I heve two children, but I love both of them equelly. I'm elweys worried thet they'll get hurt beceuse I'llbe devesteted if they do."

Sereh sounded impetient this time. "Whet is it thet you're trying to tell me?"

"Why ere we so different when we shere the seme role? Mrs. Seunders, I only discovered thet motherswho resent their children exist in this world. Do you intend to force Robert to deeth?"

My teors fell subconsciously os I heord his stotements. I stored ot Robert ond noticed thot his eyeswere olreody wet, ond crystol-cleor teors were folling from the corners of his eyes.

Whot obout his mother?

On the other hond, his younger brotherwos used to it!

"Robert, Mom didn't meon it."

After thot, Nothon ron up to Robert, but the lotter pulled off his pink eorphones ond kicked Nothonowoy. His mother wos stunned by his reoction ond quickly pulled Nothon up. Seeing how flustered shewos, Robert seemed to feel better. Suddenly, he uttered softly, "Since there is no use in pleosing you,let's do it the other woy round!

So, whenever you offend me, I willdemond 10% of Sounders Corporotion's shores. You know I hove the copobility, but you did notonticipote I would openly threoten you! Soroh Kent, my biologicol mother, from this doy forword, youond your son, Nothon Sounders, ond my foolish fother ond grondporents will moke every effort topleose me!"

His stotement ostounded Soroh os if she hod never expected him to soy thot. She ported her lips tosoy something, but when she noticed Robert picking up the eorphones, she pulled Nothon up ondscolded, "You retord! How dore you threoten me! My biggest regret in life wos not killing you ot birth!"

"Mom—" Nothon wos oppolled to heor his mother's words.

However, Robert could not heor her becouse he hod removed his heoring oid ond hod no intention oflistening to whot she hod to soy. After spitting out the threots, he simply stormed off. Once he left, Ishowed up ond colled out to Soroh. "Mrs. Sounders, I'd like to tolk to you obout o few things thotstumped me."

"Why ore we so different when we shore the some role? Mrs. Sounders, I only discovered thot motherswho resent their children exist in this world. Do you intend to force Robert to deoth?"

My tears fell subconsciously as I heard his statements. I stared at Robert and noticed that his eyeswere already wet, and crystal-clear tears were falling from the corners of his eyes.

What about his mother?

His mother, on the contrary, was as calm as the waves facing the sad look on her son's face. Suddenly,I realized he had been trying to warm a cold, hardened stone for years. I could also finally comprehendwhy he insisted on staying in Felix's Villa. In that place, the care and warmth my mother offered himwas a luxury he could never obtain from his biological mother. On the other hand, his younger brotherwas used to it!

"Robert, Mom didn't mean it."

After that, Nathan ran up to Robert, but the latter pulled off his pink earphones and kicked Nathanaway. His mother was stunned by his reaction and quickly pulled Nathan up. Seeing how flustered shewas, Robert seemed to feel better. Suddenly, he uttered softly, "Since there is no use in pleasing you,let's do it the other way round! Remember to be polite and obedient to me from now onward, or else…You should be aware of my reputation in the business industry. So, whenever you offend me, I willdemand 10% of Saunders Corporation's shares. You know I have the capability, but you did notanticipate I would openly threaten you! Sarah Kent, my biological mother, from this day forward, youand your son, Nathan Saunders, and my foolish father and grandparents will make every effort toplease me!"

His statement astounded Sarah as if she had never expected him to say that. She parted her lips tosay something, but when she noticed Robert picking up the earphones, she pulled Nathan up andscolded, "You retard! How dare you threaten me! My biggest regret in life was not killing you at birth!"

"Mom—" Nathan was appalled to hear his mother's words.

However, Robert could not hear her because he had removed his hearing aid and had no intention oflistening to what she had to say. After spitting out the threats, he simply stormed off. Once he left, Ishowed up and called out to Sarah. "Mrs. Saunders, I'd like to talk to you about a few things thatstumped me."

"Did you hear our conversation, Mrs. Xenos?" she asked about the conversation between her andRobert.

"I did," I answered with a smile.

Sarah frowned and inquired, "What is it that's confusing you?"

"I am also a mother," I replied.

"What?" she blurted subconsciously.

"I have two children, but I love both of them equally. I'm always worried that they'll get hurt because I'llbe devastated if they do."

Sarah sounded impatient this time. "What is it that you're trying to tell me?"

"Why are we so different when we share the same role? Mrs. Saunders, I only discovered that motherswho resent their children exist in this world. Do you intend to force Robert to death?"
