Chapter 265,Coolest Girl in Town
Seeing that, Faye showed an upset expression. However, there was nothing that could be done. Thus, Rowena consoled, “Miss Faye, don’t take that to heart! It’s been years since Madam became like this. You should understand.” Faye didn’t reply, but she looked toward Elise before saying, “Miss Sinclair, you saw what my mother is like.
As her daughter, I am treated as such, not to mention that you’re a stranger. If my mom does anything that offends you, I hope that you try to understand and forgive her.” “I’ll be fine, Miss Anderson.” After Elise said that, she kneeled down to pull Jeanie up.
However, as soon as her hand touched Jeanie, she was swung off. “Don’t touch me. Don’t touch me.” At this moment, Elise’s hand froze, and Jeanie seemed to be in her own bubble. After Elise retracted her hand, she whispered, “Didn’t you say that you want to take me somewhere? Where is that?” As soon as she said that, Jeanie’s body stopped shaking. When Jeanie looked up at Elise, she seemed to be tracing back to her consciousness.
“Yoyo… Yoyo…” Elise then answered, “I’m Yoyo!” Hearing that, Jeanie smiled. She then held Elise’s hand and stood up. “My Yoyo is back. Yoyo is back! Let’s go. I’ve prepared a surprise for you. Let’s go together.” Elise was then led away by Jeanie. After they left, Rowena said softly, “Miss Faye, isn’t it inappropriate to put Madam in a stranger’s care? What if Old Madam finds out…” At once, Faye’s face turned dark like never before. “What can happen when she finds out? She’s just an old lady in her eighties and probably has only a few years left.” “Miss!”
Immediately, Rowena took a look around to ensure that there was nobody around before she continued, “Words as such shan’t be uttered. After all, Old Madam is the spine of the family. It’s better that we stay cautious.” Hearing that, Faye scoffed. “After all these years, I’ve survived. Why should I be wary of an old lady? Not to mention, I’m the person in charge of the family now.” “Yes, yes. You’re right. Nevertheless, Miss Sinclair is an outsider. If you let her interact with Madam like this, what if she spills the information to the public?” Faye’s gaze turned cold.
“That depends on her. If she doesn’t act as she should, I have ways to make her shut up. After all, only the dead can keep a secret forever.” Upon hearing that, Rowena was shocked by the deadly aura in Faye’s eyes. Hence, a cold shudder ran down her spine. Seeing that, Faye said, “Look how scared you are. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to her now. However, if she can’t keep her mouth shut and causes some rumors to circulate outside, she’ll be sorry.” After saying that, she turned on her heels to leave. Rowena, who was in a cold sweat, was then left behind as she heaved a long sigh.
Meanwhile, Elise had followed Jeanie to a place at the right wing. When they got to the end of the hallway, Jeanie halted her steps. Looking at the door that was closed shut, she said with a gentle smile, “This is it! Yoyo, follow me.” As soon as she said that, she pushed the door open and went in. Elise was stumped to see what was inside the room. Inside the large room was filled with things that a little girl would love. There were dolls, cartoon cars, bags, books, toys, clothes… You name it. Not to mention, the room was kept at an utmost tidiest! She couldn’t even find a speck of dust inside.
