BookToReadChapter 696 Upon seeing Madisyn, Amanda was immediately impressed.
"Madisyn isn't just beautiful.
She's also so well-mannered!" Elaine beamed and said, "My daughter is indeed very well-mannered." Amanda chuckled, a touch of envy in her eyes.
"I envy you.
My little rascal is only good at causing chaos.
A daughter is so much better than a son." Madisyn glanced at Mara with an innocent expression and said, "Well, if you're going to be envious, you should envy Mrs.
Riggs.
She has two daughters!" Elaine raised an eyebrow in surprise.
"Mrs.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRiggs, you have two daughters?" It appeared Mara had only brought up her biological daughter earlier.
Mara's expression stiffened for a moment, but she quickly recovered with a smile.
"Yes, but the elder one isn't my biological child.
She's been away for quite stime, and I'm hesitant to mention her.
If she knew I mentioned her, she'd probably be upset." Elaine nodded in understanding.
"Kids grow up and develop their own personalities.” Mara sighed, a hint of helplessness in her voice.
"My stepdaughter has always been difficult.
No matter what I get for her, she doesn't want it.
It breaks my heart.
Losing her mother so young must have scarred her, No matter how hard I try, nothing seems to change." Madisyn fought back a grimace, finding the whole act nauseating.
Mara, despite her cunning and schemes, was really good at pretending to be a kind woman.
Elaine tried to comfort her.
"Give her stime.
She'll eventually see the good you're doing for her." Mara shook her head with a sad smile.
"I hope so, but it's been twenty years, and nothing's changed.
She never responds to my messages or calls.
The only tshe accepts anything is when I send money." Pausing for a moment, she added helplessly, “What else can I do? I just feel so sorry for her.” Mara's pitiful demeanor painted her as a devoted stepmother in everyone's eyes.
Meanwhile, Susan was cast as the ungrateful, rebellious stepdaughter.
No wonder Susan had such a bad reputation in Ansport; it was all Mara's doing.
Elaine thought for a moment and suggested, "Why not visit her now and then? Take her out and spend squality ttogether.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGirls need that kind of companionship.
Her father's probably too busy to give her the attention she needs.
That's where you cin." Mara nodded, her expression growing even more sorrowful.
"You're absolutely right, Mrs.
Johns.
I've done that, actually." "What happened?" Elaine asked.
Mara's voice grew even more sorrowful as she recounted, the recounted, "Dnever saw her.
I waited at the airport all night, caught a cold, and had to return cold, and had home.
Before I set off, I had asked her if she would meet me, and she hado M promised she would." Elaine raised her eyebrows in surprise.
It was clear the girl had a rebellious streak.
Amanda said flatly, "Honestly, it might be best not to bother.
Speople are just ungrateful.”
