Chapter 7

　　"Roxane, do you know how much effort it took me to grow these potted flowers like this? Recently, it was the flowering period. I took them from the flower room and put them here for my parents to admire. It's like this." 　　Maxine was really angry. 　　She didn't know what was going on with this country girl, but she changed overnight. Not only did she not eat the porridge she made specially, she also acted like a baby to her mother, and even gave her a trick. 　　Now she cut the flowers she raised. These are the flowers Tobias gave her. She raised them with her own hands. 　　"Mom, I... I just want to help. I don't know it will be unhelpful." 　　Roxane put on an aggrieved and helpless look. 　　Hanna hurriedly comforted her daughter, "It's okay, as long as the flowers don't die, the cut branches and leaves will grow out." 　　She said to Maxine again, "Maxine, be kind to your sister. She doesn't know how to grow flowers like you. She thinks that a few pots of flowers will grow better if you trim them. Don't blame her." 　　Roxane nodded repeatedly, "I really want to trim them to make them grow better, not deliberately trying to cut them to death." 　　Hanna pulled a tissue and handed it to Roxane while coaxing her, "It's okay, your sister still cares about you, stop crying. Your body is still weak. I will make you a soup. Just wait for the soup to boil and drink two more bowls." 　　"Thank you, mom." 　　Roxane wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, but the paper towels were not wet. She deliberately squeezed out a bit of tears when her mother asked her to make her feel sorry for her, and stood on her side. 　　It is necessary to let parents see Maxine's behavior clearly in order to avoid the recurrence of the tragedy of the past. 　　Not only that, she had to destroy everything Maxine cares about. She wouldn't let anything pass, even a few potted flowers. 　　Others didn't know that these potted flowers were given by Tobias to Maxine. Only Roxane, who lived a lifetime longer, knew about it. 　　In her past life, when Maxine appeared in front of her as a winner, he told her everything. 　　"Mom!" 　　Maxine couldn't help but exclaimed, "I really spent a lot of effort to raise these potted flowers." 　　"Are those pots of flowers more important than your sister? She already said that she just wants to help. She is not like you when she was a child and didn't grew up by my side. She has received the best education and understands everything. These pots of flowers are not dead, why do you care about them than your sister? She just woke up, very weak, and even hungry to help you trim the flowers." 　　Seeing Hanna's face sinking, Maxine swallowed back what she wanted to say. 　　"Or, I will go to the flower market tomorrow to buy a few pots and pay you back?", Roxane looked like she wanted to make up for something wrong. 　　Maxine could see that the teeth in her mouth were broken. 　　Can the flowers bought at the flower market compare with her pots? This was given to her by Tobias. 　　"Forget it, in the future, before you do anything, you must ask first. Don't always help." Even if Maxine was full of hatred, she still calmed down. 　　She can't fight with Roxane just because of a few pots of flowers or make her mother feel that she is bullying Roxane. 　　After all, she is not Hanna's biological daughter now, and she can still stand up to the identity of Miss Madison's family. It is the companionship that others have remembered for the past 25 years. 　　"Okay, it's okay, Roxane. Don't take it to your heart. If you like pruning flower branches, tomorrow, I will buy a cart of potted flowers for you and you can do whatever you want." 　　Roxane smiled sweetly, "Thank you Mom. You are so kind to me. I love you." 　　Hanna was sweetened by her daughter's sweet smile, and when she heard her daughter's phrase "I love you", it was even sweeter. 　　"You are my daughter, who is good to you if mom is not good to you? Oh, mom's food." 　　Hanna whispered, turned and ran into the kitchen. 　　Johnny entered the house at this time and happened to see his wife rushing into the kitchen. While taking off his coat, he asked, "What's the matter?" 　　"Dad, you are back." 　　Maxine put down the scissors and was about to greet him, but she didn't expect Roxane to be faster than her. She had already walked quickly to meet her father. 　　"Dad, I'll help you get your coat." Roxane took the coat from her father's hand tenderly, and answered her father's question with a smile, "Mom was talking to us and forgot the food she was cooking." 　　Johnny was a little surprised. His biological daughter had returned for more than a year, but she was not close to his biological father. At most, she called him dad and didn't make any other actions. 　　Today, he was greeted by her, smiling so sweetly, and helping him take his coat more considerately. 　　Seeing Roxane's wrist wrapped around gauze, Johnny quickly grabbed her daughter, took her injured hand, frowned and asked with concern, "Roxane, what happened to your wrist?" 　　Without waiting for Roxane to answer, Maxine rushed to say, "Dad, Roxane ran to Bricks' house and cut her veins and committed suicide in front of him and refused to marry him." 　　Hearing this, Johny's expression changed. She immediately let go of the hand holding Roxane and cursed sternly, "Roxane, if you don't want to marry him, then you don't have to run to him and cut your veins. Committing suicide and refusing to marry him won't change anything."
