Daisy was standing in the bushes nearby. The branch in her hand had been crushed. There was a look of hate in her eyes.
“Rosemary, why is tt that John Sawyer is engaged to me, and you’re still all he wants? What are you better than me? I love him so much. Why can’t he see?”
A hand patted her lightly on the shoulder. Daisy turned around and saw Laurie. Tears sprang from her eyes. “Mom, why do I try so hard and John Sawyer still only sees Rosemary? I can’t take it. I really can’t.
Laurie watched Daisy cry so hard it broke her heart. “Baby, don’t you cry, because you’re carrying The Sawyer family’s baby anyway, okay? Even if John has Rosemary in his heart for a while, he’ll forget about her over time.”
Daisy shook her head violently and said with a lump in her throat, “No, he won’t. As long as that bitch Rosemary is around, John Sawyer won’t forget her.”
Laurie said softly, touching Daisy’s head. “Don’t worry, you still have me. I would never let anyone else threaten your happiness.”
Daisy looked at Laurie and nodded gently.
“Okay, today is your engagement ceremony, so stop crying. It won’t look good if your eyes get puffy.” Said Laurie.
Daisy slowly stopped crying, wiped the tears from her face with a tissue, gave what she thought was the most beautiful smile, and took Laurie’s hand and walked to the banquet.
There was a sinister gleam in Laurie’s eyes. She glanced at the people by the lake.
Edmund wanted to ask Rosemary about her relationship with John Sawyer, but when he saw that she was in a bad mood, he stopped.
“Are you trying to ask me about my relationship with John Sawyer?” Rosemary suddenly stood on the edge of the fence, then stopped and looked at the flowers floating in the river.
“John Sawyer is my ex-boyfriend. I met him in high school. We started dating when we graduated from high school. Because he was the only son of The Sawyer family, and I was only a nominal lady in the family at that time. My stepmother never took me out to parties, so he was afraid that his father would object to our being together. We dated secretly for two years.” Rosemary paused.
“At that time, I was naive and thought he would really marry me. I learned how to cook for him in the first place. Until one day, I found out he was with my sister. I felt very sad after I knew that. But I didn’t want to upset my father, so I decided to let go of him. What I didn’t expect was that my stepmother would knowingly reveal my date of birth to The Grant family’s lawyers. My father’s company was in trouble at that time, and I was so discouraged that I agreed to marry Wilson Grant.” Rosemary smiled ruefully.
“Am I being stupid? But it’s so much better to get something off my chest, Edmund, thank you for listening to my boring past.” Rosemary said with a deep breath.
Edmund did not know that this was why she married into The Grant family. At first he thought she had her eye on The Grant family’s fortune.
“No, I just didn’t know you had such a past!” Said Edmund, frowning.
“Well, Rosemary, you and your mother are the spitting image of each other. You guys are so good at finding men.” Came Laurie’s sarcastic voice.
Hearing Laurie talk about her mother, Rosemary said angrily, “Don’t you talk about my mother like that. You don’t deserve that.”
Laurie now neglected her upbringing and said, “I don’t deserve that? Who are you to tell me not to? My mouth belongs to me. I can say what I want.”
“Your mother is a bitch, and I would have married your father if it wasn’t for her. Oh, I was wrong. It’s Daisy’s dad.” Laurie looked at Rosemary derisively.
