It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 504

"See? I knew it! I know everything you have done serves a purpose. You've been using me in your own plans, even when you were driving Daisy away from the Ouyang Family, you used me to achieve your goal. No wonder Brian has been hostile to you the whole time. He must have learned about your malicious nature!"

Said Mary with hatred, every word cold as ice. She hated it when Brian ignored her. If it weren't for Yakira, Brian would treat her as good as he did to Daisy. But now he was indifferent to Mary, but behaved lovingly to Daisy. The difference between them drove her crazy.

"How dare you! How can you talk to your own mother like this? Where are your manners?" Yakira was both ashamed and angered. She raised her hand and yelled at Mary, threatening to slap her again. Brian's indifference had wounded her deeply, thus she couldn't bear to hear Mary to mention that again. Why would a son treat his own mother as aloof as a stranger? And why would a daughter yell at her mother in disgust?

"What? Do you want to hit me again? Do it then! But don't you mention manners to me again, because you have none! If you knew what decency was, you wouldn't be Leo Ouyang's wife. And the CEO of Ouyang Foreign Trade's wife would be someone else."

Eyes wide open, Mary glowered back at her mother. They glared at each other with hatred, as if their opponent was their mortal enemy. Mary always hated her mother for the original family she was born to, and even more for making her a stepdaughter of a successful entrepreneur. For that, the young ladies of wealthy families never thought much of her.

"Alright! Whatever! You're too young and stupid to know what is right and what is wrong. And you are too self-centered to heed my advice. Whatever I say or do, you would think it is an excuse. But just wait and see! One day...one day, you'll understand everything I've done is for your own good."

That said, without looking at Mary, Yakira got in the car and drove away. Her daughter's every word had wounded her badly, making her heart cramp in pain. She wondered whether this was her retribution. Perhaps, because of her sins, she was punished by heaven. To win Leo's heart, she had framed Grace and cast Daisy away. And that was why she was doomed to be despised by her own children. Mary and Brian had never treated her as their mother, but an enemy.

Mary bit her lower lip as she watched her mother's car drive away. She never thought that her mother would heartlessly leave her behind. Her car was not there, thus she had to call a cab to get back. Though she always hated taxis, she had to endure it for the moment. Gathering her wits and emotions, Mary walked to the curbside, and hailed a taxi. For the first time ever she had a quarrel with her mother. But she didn't look deep inside herself and think of her own faults, but attributed the whole mess to Daisy. In her opinion, Daisy was the root cause of Brian's indifference to her and her mother's anger. She wondered why Daisy had all the good things she had yearned for?

"Edward, what's going on here? Did they just fight with each other?" Having watched the whole drama, Leena giggled delightfully at the scene. When she smiled, she radiated a youthful charm of her age, shining like a peach blossom from a February garden.
