Chapter 343 She Doesn’t Believe
Salma took a deep breath when she noticed the hair on Simone’s shoulder.
Suppressing her last bit of hesitation, she reached out and lightly patted Simone’s shoulder as if she
were brushing off some dust.
Then she quickly grabbed the strand of hair and held it in her hand.
Upon seeing Simone’s gaze, Salma felt a twinge of guilt and said, “I noticed some dust on your clothes,
so I thought I’d help you brush it off.”
Simone looked at Salma with a cold stare.
“Is that so? Then why did you take
my hair?”
She grabbed Salma’s hand as she was about to retract it and took the hair back.
When Salma looked at her shoulder with a conflicted expression, Simone realized that something was
amiss.
She also noticed the hair on her shoulder.
It wasn’t actually her hair; someone had accidentally brushed it onto her clothes earlier.
But she couldn’t let Salma take it away and potentially harm someone else.
As a geomancer, Simone attached great importance to her hair and blood.
She couldn’t let them remain on her clothes and be taken away by someone.
The reason Simone didn’t stop her initially was to see if Salma would choose to take it.
In the end, Salma did, which surprised Simone but also seemed expected.
Salma was caught off guard and suddenly felt a bit panicked.
She didn’t expect Simone to be so perceptive and notice her small actions.
She awkwardly smiled and said, “I noticed some hair on your clothes, so I wanted to pick it up and
throw it away for you.”
Simone looked at her firmly and said, “If you look in the mirror now, you’ll see that your eyes and face
betray a sense of guilt, Melinda asked you to take it, didn’t she?”
Being directly exposed by Simone, Salma felt even more embarrassed.

She shook her head and denied, “No, Melinda didn’t ask me to take your hair. You’ve misunderstood. I
simply saw some dust on your clothes and wanted to help you remove it.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSimone no longer held any hope or affection for her biological mother.
Otherwise, this kind of thing would be quite hurtful.
She looked at Salma coldly and said, “Whether I misunderstood or not, you know the truth. very well.
You’ve always wondered why I don’t recognize you and want to sever our relationship. In addition to
Melinda’s influence, there are also these recent events.”
da, and use it
have the
She sarcastically added, “So, you actually wanted to take my hair, give it to against me. Are you my
real mother or my enemy? After all that you did, audacity to act superior in front of me. What happened
to your dignity?” Salma wouldn’t just randomly grab her hair, which meant it was instigated by Melinda.
Her own mother didn’t just take Melinda’s side when it came to her and Melinda, but now she took
Melinda’s side as well.
She didn’t expect this before.
But fortunately, she stopped caring a long time ago, so she wouldn’t be upset anymore.
When Simone bluntly stated it, Salma’s expression changed.
She originally wanted to continue denying it, but when she saw the sarcasm and coldness in Simone’s
eyes, she couldn’t bring herself to say it anymore.
Salma remained silent for a moment and said, “Yes, Melinda did ask me to bring her a strand of your
hair.”
She pursed her lips and continued, “She said that you might have been cursed before. It’s like being
possessed by something unclean, which is why you became heartless and indifferent towards us.”
“As long as I give her a strand of your hair, she can ask a geomancy master she knows to perform a
ritual to cleanse you of the curse.”
She looked up at Simone with a hopeful look, “I want the old you back; that’s why I agreed. Please,
give me back my daughter?” She truly wanted her obedient and considerate daughter back.
This prickly, cold, and heartless Simone was not her daughter.
Simone suddenly laughed, “You still like to deceive yourself. Do you really think I’ve been possessed
by something impure? Can’t you even recognize your own daughter?” She found it truly ironic, “Deep
down, you know that I’m still me. It’s just that you can only accept the

obedient and considerate side of me. And you can’t accept that you hurt me, causing me to sever ties
with you and completely change my attitude towards you. You’re just a hypocrite who holds different
people to different standards.”
She then changed the subject and said, “Do you truly believe that Melinda wanted my hair to help me
get rid of a curse? If you truly believed it, why were you hesitating just now? So, you also had doubts
and suspicions that Melinda wanted my hair so she could use it against me. Just because I didn’t
comply with you and instead confronted you. You convinced yourself that helping me remove the curse
was for my own good and you did nothing wrong. Mrs. Gray, am I right?” Salma could discern
everything about Mrs. Gray’s mindset.
The more she realized this, the more fortunate she felt for severing ties with her biological mother.
Otherwise, who would dare to desire such a twisted form of family affection? When Simone revealed
her inner thoughts, Salma’s expression changed.
Her eyes. flickered, “I am your biological mother, so how could I possibly want to harm you? Besides,
you are so capable; how could you be harmed?”
She didn’t fully believe Melinda’s words.
She had a slight suspicion that Melinda wanted to do something with Simone’s hair.
But she thought that since Simone was so powerful, just taking a strand of hair shouldn’t cause much
harm.
At most, she would learn a lesson.
And if what Melinda said was true, it would be even better if her once considerate daughter could
return.
So, she took action.
Simone chuckled, “Look, you’re still making excuses for your coldness and evil. I am capable, so I
deserve to be manipulated by you?” She looked at Salma and said, “Mrs. Gray, we used to be mere
acquaintances. But now you’ve crossed my boundaries. If you provoke me again, don’t blame me for
any violent repercussions that might happen.”
With Salma’s temperament, as long as she wasn’t a close and obedient daughter, she would always
hold a grudge.
It was only a matter of time before she provoked her again.
When that happened, her counterattack would be justified.
Salma’s face turned red, embarrassed and indignant

What did it mean to call her cold and evil? How could anyone say that about their own mother? This
daughter always managed to make her angY
She said coldly, “These are just fabrications; I don’t believe them.”
Simone shrugged nonchalantly, “Believe it or not, it’s up to you”
She said with a meaningful tone, “Now I understand why Jodie is so cold and heartless. Because she
was raised by you since childhood, he learned from you. Like mother, like daughter.”
Salma was so angry that her whole body trembled as she pointed at Simone.,”
“Y-You…
But she didn’t know how to refute it.
What she despised the most now was being, told that she had raised Jodie to be this way.
Seeing Salma so furious, Simone’s thoughts shifted.
She put on a friendly expression and said, “Considering our past as mother and daughter, let me
remind you. I notice that your philtrum is turning purple. If you continue to associate with Leon’s mother
and become as mischievous as her… Then, you will face a series of unfortunate events. The worst
outcome would be being abandoned by everyone.”
Simone wasn’t genuinely trying to kindly remind Salma but rather planting a seed of doubt in her mind.
She knew that Salma had always been very suspicious.
If it came true, Salma wouldn’t blame herself but would definitely blame Melinda.
Melinda wanted to sow discord between her and Salma, but Simone didn’t care.
However, she wouldn’t allow the other party to continue causing trouble unchecked.
She would also plot and scheme so that no matter how good Salma’s relationship with Melinda was
now, their relationship would become extremely hostile in the future.
It would be quite interesting to witness two wealthy wives fighting each other.
Most importantly, given Salma’s current state, she simply couldn’t listen to what Simone was saying.
Sure enough, Salma was so enraged that her whole body trembled.
4/5
“You’ve gone too far, cursing me like that.”
She didn’t believe that she would encounter any misfortune or be abandoned by her loved
ones.
