“Finnley, look what I bought you?” squealed Faustinaexcitedly before she even entered the house.
Finnley wasn’t interested. Her mother had done this many times. The things her mother bought for her filled up an entire room in the villa but Finnley never wore them. Even so, her mother would continue buying them.
“Finnley, I bought you some clothes, take a look at it.” Faustina walked towards Finnley with shopping bags in her hand. She put the shopping bags down and took out one of the clothes she bought today and showed it to Finnley as if she was showing her daughter something precious.
“Finnley, take a look. Do you like it?” Faustina’s eyes were filled with longing.
Finnley didn’t look up. She glanced briefly and saw a black shirt. She didn’t think that her mother would buy something according to her taste.
Faustina didn’t get angry even though her daughter was ignoring her. She walked over and put the shirt right under Finnley’s eyes.
“I bought this shirt today according to your taste in clothes,” said Faustina all pleased. Her well-maintained and nice-looking face was glowing attractively.
Finnley didn’t have a choice. She glanced at the shirt and she really liked the style. She then reached out her hand and grabbed the shirt. She looked at the pants in her mother’s hand, it was also the style that she liked. Why did her mother have a sudden change of heart?
“Mom, did you hit your head? Are you okay?” It had been almost 30 years. Finnley could never imagine her mother doing something according to what she liked.
“No, I’m fine. I took all my medications today,” said Faustina jokingly.
“I bought one more set, take a look at them as well. I’ll return them if you don’t like them,” said Faustina as she took out another set of clothes.
Finnley looked at the clothes on her mother’s hand. Both sets looked good and they suited her.
“What do you think?” The longing in Faustina’s eyes became intense.
“It’s fine!” Finnley didn’t want to praise her mother too much. Otherwise, she didn’t know what to expect from her mother in the future.
“Wow, that’s great! Try them on when you’re free and show me.” After hearing what her daughter said, how Faustina felt right now was indescribable.
“Alright!” promised Finnley. She folded the clothes and put them next to her legs.
“I’ll hang it up for you!” Faustina was as happy as a child who got some candies, seeing that her daughter liked the clothes that she got for her. She grabbed the two sets of clothes and went upstairs to Finnley’s room.
Finnley stared at her mother’s back. It was odd, was her mother possessed by something? Why did she become so understanding all of a sudden?”
In her memories, her mother was strict with her since she was a child. She was very lenient towards her brother, Kingsley. She didn’t force him to do things as she would to her. Her childhood was ruined by her mother. She was turning 30 and she had never played in a sandbox before.
No matter what she did, she had to follow her mother’s wish. She would get scolded and labelled as a disobedient child if she did something against her mother’s will, even if it was something small.
This family made Finnley felt like she was suffocating. Luckily, her mother didn’t disagree with her when she said that she wanted to move out and live alone.
“Finnley, what do you like to eat?” Faustina came downstairs after putting away the clothes. She sat in front of her daughter and asked her unwittingly.
“Me?” Finnley stared at her mother. She had never asked about what she liked to eat. She would cook whatever she wanted and Finnley had to eat them even if she didn’t like it.
“Yeah.” Faustina knew vaguely about what her daughter liked, but there was a lot of things that she still didn’t know.

The readers' comments on the novel: Contract Marriage With Mysterious President
How was she "lovers" with Matt when she was a virgin on her wedding night?...
I feel most of this book was written by AI or some confusing program....
So unless she's completely stupid, she must know that Richard is her husband with the amount of times Robin said Mr Carter?!?...
Hard to follow at times which is a pain because it seems like a good story...
C’est un très bon livre mais la fin est décevante. Les histoires entamées ne se clôturent pas. C’est à croire que le début et la fin furent écrits par deux personnes différentes....
great book. Are there additional chapters? What Happen with Andy? Did Amy have a boy or girl?...
Omg so nice dear author...
