Chapter 13
She was wearing a white shirt, black pencil pants, which set off her long and straight legs. Outside was a beige windbreaker, and her curly hair was scattered on her shoulders. She looked cool and noble.
Barbara looked at her and felt jealous.
She just couldn't stand Isobel's posturing.
She was a humble woman, but she dressed like a social elite. Her arrogance and indifference made people think that she was noble.
But when she thought of her career, she felt a little happy.
So what if she pretended to be pure and lofty? She was no match for her.
She was the daughter of the West family, a popular actress in the entertainment circle, but what about her?
A abandoned daughter who had been driven out of the family, even if she was talented? It was easy for her to lose her job.
At that time, she could only stay in that ten square meters shop all day long to sell her sexy goods.
Thinking of this, Barbara couldn't help but feel a little proud. She straightened her back and walked forward with a smile on her lips.
"Sister, you are here!"
Sienna also came to her senses and hurried forward with a smile on her face.
"Isobel, come and sit down! Rylie, get a glass of water for Miss Isobel."
The servant, Rylie, poured a glass of water and looked at Isobel with contempt.
Isobel didn't care about it and said coldly, "what can I do for you?"
Sienna felt a little embarrassed.
Seeing this, Barbara hurried to hold her arm and said with a smile, "sister, don't worry. It's not easy to go home. Let's talk about it after dinner. We haven't talked for a long time. There's still a while before dinner. How about going to my room and chatting with me?"
Isobel looked at her coldly and said in a sarcastic tone.
"What to talk? To talk how did you seduce men? I'm sorry. I'm not interested in those dirty tricks, and I can't learn them."
Barbara's face froze and her eyes were full of grievance.
"Sister, how can you say that to me?"
Sienna forced a smile and said, "Isobel, your sister did it out of kindness. Why don't you talk about it? If there is any misunderstanding, you can talk about it. We will still be family in the future."
"A family? I'm sorry. Except you two, I'm a family with everyone except you.
Besides, my mother has only one daughter. When will she have a sister? Please don't mess up with me, okay? Aren't you afraid that my mother's ghost will come to kill you at midnight? "
"Ahhh!"
Barbara screamed and hid herself in Sienna's arms.
At this moment, a loud shout came from the stairs.
“Isobel!”
Isobel looked up and saw Mollie walking down with a crutch.
Although Matriarch West was old, she was hale and hearty with sharp eyes. With a gloomy face, she had an imposing manner of not getting angry but showing great prestige.
However, Isobel was not afraid of her. She stood there with cold eyes and temperament.
What Mollie hated most was her arrogance and stubbornness, just like her dead mother, who was born with arrogance and didn't take anyone seriously.
She scolded coldly, "what did you say just now?"
Isobel didn't want to say anything more. It was meaningless to argue with each other more often.
A few years ago, she would have quarreled with them because of her mother.
But now, she knew that no one cared about her mother in this family, so she didn't even bother to quarrel.
Seeing that she didn't say a word, Mollie thought she was afraid and her expression softened.
Then he looked at Barbara, who was curling up in Sienna's arms. Her delicate face looked at her pitifully like a frightened deer, and he could not help but feel a little relieved.
"Well, now that you're back, let bygones be bygones. Let's go to the restaurant for dinner."
Then she walked to the dining room first.
Isobel frowned and finally followed him.
"Isobel, I know you're coming back, so I asked the maid to cook your favorite dishes. Have a taste. See if it's delicious?"
As soon as the dishes were served, Sienna picked up food for her attentively.
Isobel held back her disgust and didn't eat or answer.
Ollie got angry when she saw her sitting there like an iceberg.
"What's wrong? I asked you to have dinner with me, but you didn't say thank you to me? After all, aunt Diana is your elder."
Isobel still didn't say anything.
Even if she didn't want to argue with her, she couldn't be kind to a woman who had forced her mother to death and had dinner with her.
She put down her chopsticks and said coldly, "no, thanks. I'm not hungry, and I don't want to eat either. What do you want me to come back for today? Come straight to the point!"
Mollie looked at her shrewdly.
This time, she didn't get angry. She only said in a deep voice, "it seems that you are very resentful of this family. Well, if you don't want to eat, no one will force you. I called you back today to inform you.
The day after tomorrow is your sister's birthday. The family will hold a birthday party for her. We have discussed with the Gill family and will announce their relationship at the party. You will also attend it.
If someone asks you, just tell them that your sister was engaged to Lewis. It's for your own good. Since you're both in the past, just let it go! "
