Dolores looked back and noticed it was her daughter, she put down the pen. She got up and stood aside to let her sit down.
Amanda didn't know what she meant and asked, "What are you doing?"
"I want you to write it," said Dolores.
Amanda sighed and pretended to be aggrieved. "I'm divorced, can’t you show me some sympathy?."
Everyone said nothing about her divorce and they did not mention Stanford. She knew that everyone was afraid of touching the pain in her heart, but she had let it go.
Dolores's look instantly changed, and even Matthew who had just sat on the bed looked towards her too.
Amanda took a glimpse of her father. Finally, her eyes fell onto Dolores and she held her hand. "Mom, I’ve let it go, I'm all right now. You don't have to care about me all the time. The more careful you are, the more pressure I feel. I hope you're still the same as before, whatever I’ve done wrong, you’ll educate and criticize me when necessary."
Seeing that her daughter could face it so positively, Dolores became slightly relieved and she pretended to be strict. "Stop babbling and hurry up writing the gift list."
"Yes, Your Highness." Amanda picked up the pen. "You really appreciate your little son."
She was not jealous, but happy.
Her little brother was the youngest and he was the first to leave them. He bore the responsibility that should not have been borne by him. On the other hand, she and her elder brother can do things according to their own thoughts.
He had taken over such a big enterprise at a young age. Although everyone will lend him a hand, he was lack of freedom. He usually looked positive and slightly immature, but he actually had a very mature mind and a powerful heart.
Or else, he won't be able to control his subordinates.
She won't be envious no matter how many things were given to him. She would only think he deserved it. In a sense, he had borne the burden of her and her brother. If he didn't come to City C, her brother might come. After all, Mr. Adams had died of illness. That was the industry left by grandpa, which can't be left aside and let it doom. In addition, her uncle and grandpa were in poor health, and the textile factory may be taken over by her brother in the future.
"Mom, I want to give the ring you gave me to Bonnie. She’s getting married to Jos and I couldn't give her cheap stuff." Although Amanda claimed that Dolores was too generous, she wanted to give them the best too.
"You can keep it. Yours don't fit, I have the one." Dolores held the jade bracelet in her hand. She planned to give it to Bonnie on the wedding day. Victoria used to let her wear it, it was an old thing given by the ancestors in the Forbis family.
The jade bracelet had a meaning of inheritance. Joshua was her son and Bonnie was her daughter-in-law. In the future, they would take over the textile factory and inherit the Forbis’ family business.
Amanda pouted and asked, "What about Andrew?"
"He will get married in the future too, what would you give to his wife?"
