Rebirth: Marry the Enemy of My Badass Husband novel Chapter 42

Gianna responded to Caesar’s insincere talk.

She went back to the villa.

In the living room, Fiona had gotten nervous, “Gina, where did you go last night? Your father and I nearly called the police.”

“I got drunk with Maureen last night and stayed at her house.” Gianna lied.

In her previous life, she had been so naïve and would never lie nor harm anyone, and defenceless.

In this life, she had to learn to be adaptable.

She felt okay to tell some white lies.

“Geez. Why did you guys get so drunk? You don’t look good today.” Fiona was relieved to see her come back safely, despite being worry about her too.

“Where’s Dad?” Gianna changed the subject.

“He’s gone to work.” Fiona said, “There are so many things to do at the company. He can’t be away all the time.”

Gianna nodded.

However, she started to plan something at that moment.

“Are you looking for him?” Fiona asked, looking at Gianna, who was pondering.

“Nope.” Gianna shook her head, “Speaking of which, mum, have you seen the news today?”

“What news?”

“Haven’t you watched it? Let me show you.” Gianna hurriedly opened her phone and showed her the news, “See?”

Fiona took a look.

The big headline read “Low-profile Noblewoman Fiona Ross: Reacquaint Yourself With The Real High Society.”

On the newsfeed were a picture of Fiona’s stunningly beautiful face and that perfect body.

Fiona felt shy.

After all, she had never shown her face in public like this before for so many years. Last night, she felt like she was dreaming, being complimented, noticed, and envied.

She felt proud for the first time.

Her heart was even still pounding for a long time until now.

“I won’t say much about the news content, just some high-sounding descriptions. Let me read you the comments below.” Gianna was actually in a good mood.

In the limo on her way back, she read the news after hanging up Caesar’s phone and saw her mother’s headline news.

She was the one who had deliberately arranged the news, but it had nothing to do with her that the news had so many reactions.

She cleared her throat and read the comments.

“That’s what you call a surprise. Those trophy wives who used to flaunt their wealth, beauty, and love, don’t they feel ashamed?”

“The first noblewoman in Kouby City is none other than Fiona.”

“Who said that Mrs. Morris was born into a humble family and was not treated well? Let me ask those girls who were born into a wealthy family, will you still be able to have such a grand birthday party under your name years later?”

“Don’t fool me. This woman is clearly only 30 years old…”

“Gina.” Fiona suddenly interrupted her.

Gianna was still reading happily at the moment.

She raised her head and saw that Fiona’s eyes were red.

Gianna hurriedly said with concern, “Mom, what’s the matter?”

“I feel that you have grown up.” Fiona smiled with teary eyes, “You even know to give me a surprise.”

Gianna was stunned.

“It was you that prepared the birthday banquet last night, right?” Fiona said straightforwardly.

“It was Dad’s thought too.”

“I always thought I didn’t care about all the fame, status or wealth. I thought I just needed to have a good time with you and your father, the three of us being together. But last night, I admit I was so happy to be the centre of attraction for everyone. And I just realized that even women have vanity…”
