Chapter 324 Are You Doing Charity?
“Mommy...”
Marie shrank behind Leo and greeted the graceful lady and was a bit frightened.
Tobias, Gabby and other people were all pretty excited and chanted together, “Mother.”
Leo squinted his eyes and sized up and down the woman dressed in a cheongsam.
Well, this must be Karl’s second wife, Maisy.
She wore her years well and looked tender and obedient like the women from the south of China which looked relaxing.
Leo didn't have any impression of her after he had that talk with Elena last night, but now, he finally understood why would Karl choose her.
She behaved with propriety and knew when how to please men.
But Lydia’s eyes filled with coldness.
“Aren't you going to apologize to Gabby?”
Maisy remained cold-faced and ordered.
Marie seemed to be afraid of his mother and was reluctant.
Gabby was hugely relieved and was waiting for Marie's apology.
While Marie was about to say sorry, Lydia suddenly spoke up, “You don't need to apologize!”
Gabby’s face immediately changed and Maisy’s eyes got fierce.
Lydia questioned, “What did she do wrong?”
Masie glanced at Lydia coldly and suddenly beamed, “Lydia is back? Well, Marie is really spoiled and is throwing a tantrum. I’m lecturing her.”
“Lecturing? I’m sorry. She is right and don’t need to apologize.”
Lydia ignored Maisy’s words completely and retorted.
Maisy’s mouth twitched and glared at Lydia.
All people present sensed the tension in the atmosphere.
Maisy was Karl's wife, but Lydia didn’t respect her at all and didn’t even see her as her step-mother.
But Leo knew that Lydia can fake to be nice to everyone but Maisy, because she was her mother’s arch enemy.
“Auntie Maisy, what happened?”
While Maisy was put on the spot, a man’s gentle voice came out from the mansion.
Aman dressed in Armani walked out with a golden watch on his hands.
But he was limping.
“Angus.copy right hot novel pub
Gabby and Tobias immediately greeted the man.
Maisy was given an out and smiled, “Well, they were just quarreling with each other.”
Angus surly knew what happened, but he just said, “Well, let’s forget it then if it’s just a trivial matter.”
Maisy nodded, “Well, I won’t look into this anymore since Angus said this. Marie, behave!”
Marie rolled her eyes and didn’t care her words.
Maisy then walked towards Lydia and held her hands amicably to Angus, “Lydia, let me introduce you a friend.”
“He is Angus Newman, the prince royal of the Newman Family. He was a soldier before and founded Sunspot Group after he was discharged from the military. He is worth of billions now. I believe you two would be great friends.”
*Hi.” Angus smiled gently and held out his hands.
While he was holding out his hands, he glanced at Leo who was standing behind Leo subconsciously and sneered inside.
Leo’s eyes squinted dangerously and didn't say anything.
Lydia was irritated. She natural can see that Maisy was trying to get her and Angus together, but she was just trying to be subtle and introduced him as a friend which left others plenty room to imagine.
Well, Karl’s woman was truth to be told extraordinary.
But while Maisy was about to sell Angus more, Lydia beamed, “There is no need of introducing him to me. I won't be able to remember him.”
All the people were taken aback and were quite awkward.
Well, Tobias just humiliated Leo with this sentence and to their surprise, Lydia humiliated Angus who they all respected with the same sentence which was even more infuriating.
Angus froze and can only withdrew his hands awkwardly and glared at Leo.
But Leo just glanced at him indifferently which made Angus edgy.
While the tension was quite high, Maisy came around and smiled, “Okay, stop standing here. Karl is about to come back. Let’s all go inside.”
Then all the people walked inside.
Leo followed with Emilia and found that Maisy was chatting with Lydia with her legs crossed on the sofa.
Though Lydia wasn’t exactly passionate, Maisy didn’t care and acted she was familiar with Lydia.
Leo just felt that Maisy must be endurable as she can be this gentle to her enemy’s daughter.
But Maisy suddenly cast a glance of Leo which made him immediately vigilant.
What kind of look was thatfi]
It didn't seem to be special at first, but if you examined it, you would find that her look was too dull like she wasn’t looking at a real person.
But she would also look at Lydia this way sometimes.
“What happened?” Lydia asked in bewilderment.
Leo shook his head, “Nothing.”
The fierce coldness in Maisy’s eyes had disappeared when he looked at her again.
“Lydia had told me that you are her husband.” Maisy turned to Leo and smiled.
“Hello, auntie Maisy.” Leo nodded and acted to be respectful.
“Hi.”
Maisy beamed, “Your uncle Karl would be back soon. Let’s wait a bit.”
“It’s okay.” Leo answered.
If he didn’t get to know her beforehand, he would definitely think that Maisy was an elegant lady without any air on.
Right when he thought that the conversation between them had ended, Maisy took out a heavy red envelope and handed it to Leo.
“Leo, this is the first time that you are here. Do take this.”
Then all the people turned to Leo and jeered,
But Leo just sunk into silence. It was a big envelope and probably had one hundred thousand yuan in it.
Lydia and Marie's faces immediately darkened.
“Are you doing charity?” Lydia asked indifferently and cast Maisy a hostile look.
