Chapter 326 Self Do, Self Have
The lively dining table became eerie quiet because of Leo’s words.
Everyone, including Karl, glanced at Leo in surprise with a little playfulness.
In their opinion, Leo just invited humiliation again.
Maisy was surprised for a moment.
Then she looked at Leo, burst into laughter, waved her hand and said, “We're family, don't be so polite.
| don’t want your gift.”
Although she was smiling, there was a hint of sarcasm deep in her eyes.
How could a woman with a noble status like her accept gift from Leo? Moreover, what kind of gift could he give? Could it match her? “What a joke! What kind of gift can you give as a homeless son-in-law who relies on a woman?”
Terry couldn't help sneering, and the smile on his face became even stronger.
Others also sneered and waited for Leo to make an exhibition of himself again.
Marie was embarrassed and reminded Leo in a low voice, “Leo, don’t give Maisy a gift.
Maisy doesn't lack anything.”
It was not merely because she didn't like gift from Leo.
As a noble woman as Maisy, she could get everything she wanted easily.
She owned everything that Leo owned, and she also owned things that Leo didn’t own.
Wouldn't it be self-disgrace for Leo to give a gift to her? Only Karl looked at Leo thoughtfully.
Nobody knew what he was thinking.
Leo smiled lightly and insisted, “It is not very important whether the gift is of high value.
At least, it can convey the best wishes for you.
Maisy, please accept it.”
Maisy’s smile became a little thicker, “If that’s the case, it's really unreasonable for me to refuse.
What do you want to give me?”
While speaking, Maisy looked at Lydia from the corner of her eyes.
Looking at her pretty face full of worry, an unknown sense of relief rose up in her heart.
She hated Lydia and Emilia.
At the same time, she was also deeply afraid of them.
When Lydia's mother was a magnate in Valenham, she was still a lowly secret lover.
She had considerable difficulty in forcing Lydia’s mother away.
She didn't expect Lydia came out then.
She was exactly the same as her mother, the same beauty, the same coldness, the same strength, the same...
the same undisguised contempt for her.
To this day, she still remembered what Lydia said to her.
She tried to please Lydia, but what she received was Lydia's cold words.
“Leave me alone.”
Although there were only there words, Maisy felt the insult from the depths of her soul.
She looked at her like she was looking at a bug.
Due to looking down from the superior, Maisy’s pitiful and proud self-esteem was destroyed, as if she saw Lydia's mother again.
However, since she was only Karl's step-wife, and Lydia was his daughter, who was important was clear at a glance.
She was humble and she dreamed to step on Lydia.
Now, she achieved it because of Leo.
Seeing Lydia’s anger, sadness, and even tears for Leo, she felt a sense of revenge in her heart.
She was going to throw Leo into hell! The corners of Maisy’s mouth rose with a slight sarcasm.
She was waiting for Leo to bring out the gift.
However, Leo knew what Maisy was thinking in her heart exactly.
He smiled, took out a pill and put it in front of Maisy.
“I’m in a hurry this time, so I just brought this pill.”
Everyone stared blankly at the pill with a strange expression.
Including Lydia.
She also didn’t understand why Leo brought the pill.
“Hahaha!”
Suddenly, there was laughter at the table.
Tobias burst into tears, “You just brought this?”
“It’s the first time for me to see a person give a pill as a gift.
Leo, you are splendid!”
Terry also laughed in disdain.
Although Gabby, Elsie and others did not speak, the sneer on their faces had already explained everything.
Maisy looked at it for a long time.
Then she giggled, “You just give me this?”
“Yes.”
Leo nodded and said seriously, “No matter how much it costs, we cannot buy health back.”
Hearing this, Maisy laughed even more, and the contempt in her eyes became stronger, “I don’t need it.
I'm in good health.”
She hoped that Leo’s would say a few more mad words.
