Not A Small Town Girl (Danielle and David) novel Chapter 93

Chapter 93

At the Darling family’s Treeside Villa, Audrey had been grounded in her room for the past two days. Even her meals were brought to her room by the servants. This made her a little flustered. After all, her parents had never punished her before. This time, they immediately grounded her.

She wanted to take advantage of Danielle not being in the country these two days to bond with her parents. If this continued, she would have no standing left in the Darling family.

’How can I make my parents happy now?’ she thought. ’I can’t even leave the room. Damn Danielle. It’s all her fault.’

After much deliberation, Audrey eventually decided to write a handwritten letter to her parents.

She found some exquisite stationery and began to write.

Half an hour later, there was a pile of discarded paper all around the floor. She thought, ’Damn it, none of what I wrote is satisfactory. My parents will definitely not be touched when they see it.’

In the end, Audrey found many articles online about being grateful to parents that brought tears to one’s eyes and adapted them by incorporating her own thoughts.

Two hours later, a touching letter expressing gratitude to her parents was completed.

She texted: [Ask Judy to come to my room.]

"Thud, thud, thud."

Less than two minutes later, someone knocked on the door.

"Come in," Audrey said.

Judy walked in, unsure of why Audrey had asked her to come. She said with a smile, "Miss Darling, what do you need me to do?"

"Judy, you’ve been working at the Darling family’s home for a few years, right?" Audrey asked gently.

 

 

"It’s been four years, Miss Darling," Judy said softly.

"Judy, you’ve always attended to my mom, and you’ve earned her trust. If you need my help in the future, you can come to me. We can help each other, and I’ll treat you well." Audrey gave a friendly smile. Her intention to get Judy on her side couldn’t have been more obvious.

"Miss Darling, I’m just an insignificant servant, usually only attending to Mrs. Darling’s daily needs. I handle nothing important, but I still appreciate your kindness. If there’s anything you need me to do, you can just let me know."

Audrey made an obvious attempt to win over Judy, so there was no way Judy couldn’t see through her little scheme.

"I really do need your help with something. I’ve written a letter to my parents, but I can’t get out of this room right now. Can you take it to them for me?"

Audrey spoke gently and looked at Judy expectantly.

She thought, ’Right now, I’m isolated and helpless in my family, and I need Judy to put in a good word for me in front of my mom. If it weren’t for the fact that Judy had earned my mom’s trust, I wouldn’t have been so polite to a maid.

’I have to endure for now. Sooner or later, I’ll drive Danielle out.

"Miss Darling. your parents are still angry," Judy said. "If I help you bring the letter over, they might not read it. After all, Danielle is their biological daughter, so it’s only natural for them to be a little biased. It’s hard on you."

Judy looked troubled, appearing as though she was still considering Audrey’s situation.

Audrey also felt that her parents were making a mountain out of a molehill, and just as Judy had said, they were biased. She thought, ’Why should I give up my engagement to Danielle? Why should I be the one who gets hurt? ’I was the one who fell in love with David first. If it weren’t for Danielle’s interference, I would definitely have won him over. What’s wrong with me being brave in pursuing love? Now, they’ve directly grounded me.’
