Reborn and Revenge novel Chapter 41

Alexia said, "Do you need money? How much do you want?"

Angel waved her hand. "No, no, Auntie. We're working with a company now, launching our own brand. It has been started and we have to save everything."

Alexia was not at ease, "Is that company reliable? Do you want me to have someone assess it for you?"

Angel put the matter of "Paradise Studio" simply to Alexia.

Alexia said, "I will help you find some famous ladies to do brand promotion."

Angel smiled, "Auntie, let us do it first. If it really does not work, you help us. You are my treasure, I can’t show you easily."

Alexia said earnestly, "Angel, if you need help, let me know."

Angel said, "Sure, I promise! With you on my back, I have confidence."

She opened another box with a smile and took out a red dress, "Auntie , how do you like this one?"

She went to Alexia's dressing room to change her clothes.

This was a dress as red as the scorching sun and fire. The skirt hem was like summer flowers in full bloom. Layer by layer, it stretched out an fell down. This was one of the theme of the four seasons - "summer".

Angel pulled her hair back with her hand and grabbed an eyebrow pencil from her Auntie's dressing table to get it stuck.

Alexia froze and then got tears in her eyes.

Angel was stunned. "What's the matter with you, Auntie?"

Alexia wiped away her tears, "I am happy, I am happy, Angel."

Angel handed over the paper towel to her and held Alexia who was surprised.

Alexia held her in his arms.

"Angel, I am so happy! It's a pity your mother won't be able to see it and see you have grown up. You are so beautiful and so capable. How happy she would be if she were alive!"

Angel slowly held Alexia.

"Auntie, my mother is watching from the sky. She knows everything and she must be happy。 Auntie, I will live a good life and work hard, so that you and mother will be always happy!"

She patted Alexia on the back.

Alexia let go of her and smiled with tears, "Good! You are great! You are the best!"

Angel smiled and wiped her tears with a tissue. "Auntie, I came to try on a dress with you, but I made you cry. I still have a lot of bad ideas to share with you."

Alexia looked at her and pinched her face with a smile, "You little monkey, what idea do you have?"

Angel tilted her head and said, "I've told the sales department that the girls in the Duncan family can’t have any of our dresses. They won't be able to wear the same dresses as us. They'll have to pay us pretty good money to wear them!"

Angel cocked her chin proudly.

Alexia nodded with a smile, "Good! No discount for them!"

Angel nodded heavily.

‘Why forgive those who mistreated you?’

Forgiveness was for those who deserve it. Never waste emotion on those who don't.

Alexia took Angel back to Duncan's house and lived in it.

Frank held indifferent attitude towards his daughter.

He was annoyed with Angel winning Clayton's heart, but he dared not speak of it. Her face made him want to run away all the time, so that he almost kept her at arm's length.

Maisy was busy with her and Daisy’s dress, as well as things related to Leo.

Daisy wanted to know what brand of dress Angel would be wearing that day.

Maisy said casually, "Your Auntie like the most is the French brand DRA, she and Angel sure will wear that brand. Your Auntie certainly will choose blue or red, and Angel consistently chooses white. Your Auntie and her dead mother always dress like her like this to make her a fairy. We can just avoid that color."

That made sense to Daisy.

"Well, I'm going to wear pink, and I'm going to buy a new one! The last dress was ruined by that little bitch, and you stopped me from settling with her! She should have paid me one! She's got so much money, why don't we let her pay for it?" Said Daisy angrily.

Maisy frowned, "I have told you many times that we can't do anything right now, until your brother is settled. We have time, don’t worry. A little neglect may breed great mischief. Can't you use your brain? Your intelligence quotient was almost at the level of a fool!"

Daisy was frightened by this sudden anger, stunned for a moment, then carefully asked, "Mom, do we have to be so careful? My brother is the second young master of the Duncan family, and, Phoebe said she liked him. So what are we afraid of?"

Maisy felt that her temper was hot, so she said in a soft tone, "It is put forward by Kyle. He is insidious and this time he is so kind to share this good thing with us, I feel not at ease, so, we must be careful. Only when this thing is settled, I can rest assured."

Daisy thought for a while, "Kyle must think of the Duncan family in the end. If my brother and Phoebe were married, it will be good for the family. He must think it in this way. Aren't you overthinking, Mom?"

Maisy stared at his daughter, "He and that fool --"

Maisy paused and couldn't help looking around.

Daisy was impatient, "Well, Mom --, you are in your own home now, why do you act like a thief? Angel is a fool."

Maisy glared at his daughter again, but did not object, "They have so much inheritance. Kyle gave what under his name to Angel, but have you ever think that you are also his sister? You are single minded, I am afraid you will get framed by him!"

"Then, is he trying to make it up to us by making my brother to be with Daisy?" Daisy thought about it.

Maisy was stunned and she said with many years of experience, "Don't dream about it! It's better to be careful than not, Daisy. We have to be on the lookout all the time. You're all Ducans, so every penny of the family is related to you, and you must have every penny you can get. You must take the initiative. You can't just sit there and wait for pie to fall from the sky like the two children of your third uncle's family. There is no such thing as a free lunch.!"

Maisy lectured her daughter.

Daisy listened carefully, which made Maisy have a better mood.

"You've got to keep your eyes open now, Daisy. If you find someone you like, try to get your father to show up, your grandfather to back you up. Find someone in equal rank, that's the lowest standard! If you can someone who is good for the family, everyone will suck up to you. Look at your Auntie, she has more say than your father in the family! So, you have to please your grandpa, understand? You can't let that fool take advantage of all!"

Daisy's eyes became bright and she said, "Mom, tell me which one is more suitable for me in the future?"

Maisy said after thinking, "There are only a few families matching the Duncan family. There is no son in the Newman family and his family’s branches were not good. The Foster family has many sons, but their family is too chaotic. William has been married with the Newman family, the other several is at your age, well, I think Hall family is good."

Maisy thought these candidates in the brain.

"Mom, I like Jason Foster!" Daisy's voice trembled as she spoke of his name.

"Jason Foster?" Maisy frowned.

“No, he's not good for you!” She spoke with certainty.

“Why?" Cried Daisy.

"What's wrong? Didn't you just say that I should find someone in equal rank and is good for the family? The foster family is now in the heyday, if I can be with Jason, grandfather must be happy!"

Maisy's attitude was firm, "No, I have seen him several times, he is handsome. But the Foster family is dangerous. Jason now is in charge of the family, so his mind and means than is not worse than Kyle. How can he marry you? If he wants to marry with our family, he will marry Angel, so as to match his status. And he is cold and unfeeling as Kyle. You will never be happy with him. His family is so complex, but he is so capable to deal with it. Do you think you can control him?"

“It is not the truth!” said Daisy.

Maisy ignored her and continued, "If you choose the Foster family, you can choose Jacob Foster, I heard that he has his parents and brother's favor. Then we can haver relationship with the family and get substantial benefits. What is more, we won’t have direct conflict with other family members. You better choose Jacob Foster!"

"No, I don't know who Jacob Foster is, I just like Jason!" Daisy was angry.

Maisy took a look at her daughter, "When did you have a fancy on Jason?"

Before Daisy answered, Maisy continue, "Even if you like him, he should like you. If he likes you, sure I am glad, so is your grandfather. In that way, you have the say in the family, but woman should be down to the earth.!"

Daisy smiled. "Mom, how can I know until I try? I'm the young lady of the Duncan. I am pretty and have good shape. I have knowledge and the ability. I am not bad. If I have a chance like Auntie, I can have the destiny as her. Mom, you should help me, brother is sister-in-law’s, but I am always your daughter!"

Daisy blinked at her mother.

Maisy did not speak, looking at her daughter.

Daisy made sense..

It was not easy for her to have her children, and if it were them, her way into the family would not have been so smooth. Now the two children were her security for the rest of her life.

Leo was a son and now he was justifiably listed in the family tree. She could contend for Isabelle's legacy, but for the property of the family, what Kyle had, Leo should have the same. None of them could be less than his.

She had really neglected her daughter.
