“She’s one of the Vanderbilts too. She’s my half-sister, and she’s my stepmother’s daughter.”Mrs. Santiago looked up at her. “What do you plan to achieve by coming here to see my daughter?”“I can provide your daughter with a chance for redemption, provided that your daughter is willing to repent. Judging from the popularity of this news, it is estimated that it’ll continue to trend for quite a while. Everyone thinks that your daughter has fallen out of her own will, but I believe that you want everyone to think that your daughter was wronged, am I right?”The idea obviously moved Mrs. Santiago.‘Yes, Pearl is in the limelight now. How can she meet anyone in the future if she can’t get past any of these limelights?‘Instead of allowing the public to think that Pearl is a problematic lady, it’s better to make everyone believe that Pearl had been framed. The sympathy that originates from the public’s empathy could at least save Pearl’s innocence and chastity.‘Being framed is a to
#GrasssyGreeen#: She’s that new designer, right? I didn’t expect that she would do such a thing. It turns out that masterpieces don’t really reflect the real personality of the designer. I’m never buying Vaenna’s jewelry anymore.A huge group of netizens started tagging Willow’s Twitter and Facebook accounts in their comments and even started a hashtag to condemn her.#Glazed Onion#: There’s no need to explain anymore. There’s so much concrete evidence, just deactivate your Facebook and Twitter account.#SpicyFood4Life#: You actually call yourself a jewelry designer? You’re an insult to those jewelry designs!#SexyV#: Isn’t it funny? A designer who came up with a collection of jewelry that pays tribute to the Gothic design concept didn’t even know designer Dila. I heard that she was able to come up with such perfect masterpieces after only a month of learning jewelry design. It’s a bit outrageous, don’t you think? I doubt those works have anything to do with her.At the Vanderbilt
Mr. Goldmann Sr. looked at the three rascals. “Then why doesn’t your mother accept your father?”The three rugrats stared at each other and then recounted to Mr. Goldmann Sr. about their mother’s experience. After listening to their explanation, Mr. Goldmann Sr.’s expression turned a little gloomy.‘I didn’t care about Maisie’s background, but I only got to know that Maisie is one of the daughters of the Vanderbilts. Although the Vanderbilts are only a small family in Bassburgh, the Goldmanns can still accept her as our daughter-in-law.‘What I didn’t expect is that my idiot son had actually been blinded and deceived by the illegitimate daughter of the Vanderbilts for six years. No wonder Zee is unwilling to accept my son.‘This kid deserves it!’“Grandpa, you do want Mommy to be with Daddy, right?” Colton asked.Mr. Goldmann Sr. snorted. “Of course.”‘My son has finally met a woman that he likes. There’s no way that I’m breaking them up. In other words, the young lady is the on
Maisie’s hungry stomach sounded somewhat loud in the dead silent ambiance.The man who was above her suddenly smirked. “You finally feel hungry. I thought you could sleep till dawn.”Maisie squinted her eyes and said, “I’m glad that you know that, so get up now.”Nolan got up from her body and rubbed her head. “I’ll cook you some supper.”Maisie was astounded.‘What!?’Maisie went downstairs. She originally thought that she could sleep till the next morning too, but it was only two o’clock in the morning.This afternoon, she had been so tired that she did not even know how she came back home.Nolan served her supper in the kitchen, and Maisie glanced at the kitchen with a slightly startled expression.The tall man was standing in the kitchen in his home pajamas that looked loose and cozy, which made him look a little less sharp than when he was in his usual suit and leather shoes.But who would believe that the man in pajamas who was making her supper in the kitchen was actua
Nolan held her in his arms and sat down on the chair. “Now tell me.”Maisie no longer had the strength to struggle and could not resist this man’s various tricks.‘He actually did something so childish to force me to talk!’She took a break to catch her breath and grabbed his hand for fear that he would tickle her again all of a sudden. “I’ve known him since a long time ago, but I don’t know the relationship between my mother and him.”‘After all, how would I already know the one thing that I want to find out too?’Nolan saw that she did not seem to be lying anymore, so his tightly pressed lips were slowly opened as he said, “Don’t you know his identity?”“I don’t care what Uncle Erwin’s identity is. Anyway, he’s the best relative that I could ask for besides my mother.”Although they were not related by blood, she had already regarded Uncle Erwin as her relative, perhaps because he was the only person who could remember that her mother existed.Nolan’s eyes drooped. Maisie did
Everyone believed that Pearl’s offense was the beginning of Maisie’s public revenge.The corners of Maisie’s mouth twitched as she picked up the phone to call Mrs. Santiago.At about 10:00 a.m., Mrs. Santiago posted a video using Pearl’s social media accounts.Pearl’s condition looked very poor in the video, and her gaze was stupefied. She looked as if she had lost a lot of weight overnight, and there seemed to be a huge difference between her current self and the gorgeous selfies and photos that she usually uploaded onto her Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter accounts.The video was obviously her first online appearance after the incident.“I was in a conflict with Ms. Vanderbilt, but it was not Ms. Vanderbilt who put me in harm’s way. I was taken advantage of that night, which had caused me to believe in others’ words too easily. I don’t want to cover anything anymore, so I’m posting this video to apologize to everyone.”#Bruised Cheeks#: The actual victim has posted a video to c
To Madam Vanderbilt, benefits always came first. The men would inherit the family business, and the women would marry someone with power and status to help the family. That was why she would protect Willow—because she had ‘usage’.Stephen held his fist. “Mom, isn’t Maisie your granddaughter too?”“Maisie?” Madam Vanderbilt’s temper rose. “She’s exactly like her mother, always the outsider of the family. Why should I rely on her?“Didn’t you marry Marina because of how capable she was? Your place in Bassburgh was sealed because of her, but did she respect me? She was immoral for thinking about another man when she was already married to you. The apple definitely doesn’t fall far from the tree.”“Enough!”Stephen’s sudden outburst stunned everyone. Even Madam Vanderbilt looked at him like he was out of his mind. Her son had never yelled at her. “You have no right to talk about Marina like that.” Stephen stomped upstairs right after he said that. Leila, who still had her hand t
Maisie laid the phone down on the desk and turned on the speaker. Leila’s voice floated out. “Maisie, your grandma wants to see you…”When the call ended, Kennedy was worried. “Do you think Madam Vanderbilt wants to see you because they have some plan? Do you want me to go with you?”Maisie smiled. “No, Uncle Kennedy. There’s a lot to be done at the studio. Madam Vanderbilt and Leila wouldn’t be too much of a problem.”Maisie arrived at Sunrise Restaurant. It was odd that Madam Vanderbilt and Leila hadn’t asked her to return to the Vanderbilt manor but wanted to meet her here instead. What could be the reason?She saw Madam Vanderbilt and Leila sitting behind the table when she got into the room.“Grandma, you asked to see me?”Madam Vanderbilt wasn’t happy at all, seeing that Maisie wasn’t showing her respect and had a cold attitude. “I heard that your father has transferred the ownership of Vaenna to you?”Maisie paused, curious. “Why didn’t I know about that? Doesn’t Vaenna b
