Chapter 92
Maisie entered the manor and heard a joyous ambient noise coming from the living room.
Willow, who was sitting next to Madam Vanderbilt, looked a little startled when she saw Maisie. She smiled and stood up. “Zee has come back?”
Madam Vanderbilt looked at Maisie and scrutinized her from head to toe. “I haven’t seen you for so many years. You do resemble your mother Marina a little now.”
Leila and several servants brought food to the dining table and shouted, “Mother, dinner is ready”
Madam Vanderbilt got up slowly with Willow’s support and then said to Maisie when she walked by her, “Stay, let’s have a meal as a family.”
‘A family?’ Maisie’s eyelashes twitched, and the corners of her lips were raised coldly.
Apart from the mother-and-daughter pair, she did not see her father at the dinner table.
Maisie looked at the empty chair after she sat down. “Why is Dad not here?”
‘He’s not hungry. Let’s eat first.” Madam Vanderbilt took the initiative to fetch Willow some side dishes. “Willie, you’re too skinny. Women have to be somewhat plump in order to stay healthy.”
Willow looked down and smiled. “Thank you, Grandma.”
Maisie squinted. “Grandma has never taken me so seriously ever before, let alone Willow.’
Seeing that Maisie did not even pick up her silverware, Madam Vanderbilt casually started the
conversation, “Maisie, I heard that you fell out with your family because of the shares of Vaenna Jewelry?”
Maisie raised her eyebrows slightly and took a glance at Leila.
Leila lowered her head, pretending to know nothing.

She then smiled. “Grandma, why would I fall out with my family just because of Vaenna Jewelry? Did you get it wrongly?”
