"Mm." Mia Ginger glanced at her and responded with a slight smile, "Hello, sister."
She glanced again at the poised Charlotte Chester and greeted, "Mom, I’m back."
"I thought you had forgotten about this family." Charlotte Chester looked at her displeased, "You went to university and your mind flew away, never knowing to call ho."
Mia Ginger was stunned for a mont, quickly regaining her composure, "You have never called either."
"I..."
Charlotte Chester hadn’t finished speaking when Zuri Ginger quickly tugged at her, consoling, "Mom, don’t be angry. You know Mia Ginger’s temper, don’t you? Why are you getting mad out of nowhere?"
"Hmph." Charlotte Chester snorted coldly, returned to her seat in frustration.
Mia Ginger had been away for so ti, while Zuri Ginger frequently returned, rekindling the warm mother-daughter relationship they once had.
The novel was reprinted, and a TV series was being planned, with joyful events happening one after another.
Several valuable pieces of jewelry were bought for her, completely washing away the previous unpleasant atmosphere caused by Edward Davis.
Zuri Ginger also ntioned.
Few people knew about her affair with Edward Davis.
Soon, she was to undergo a restorative surgery and thoroughly turn over a new leaf.
Who knows who she might find in the future?
Charlotte Chester had co to terms with it.
With Zuri Ginger’s status, it was tough to marry into a top-tier family; her initial positioning was wrong.
With Zuri’s looks, talent, and strategies, finding a rich businessman should be no problem. Whether pure or not, under such circumstances, it’s not that vital.
So of those actresses even got married three to four tis, didn’t they?
With broadened horizons, when she looked at Zuri Ginger again, she naturally grew fond of her.
Charlotte Chester took a sip from the water cup on the coffee table, slowly calming the agitation caused by Mia Ginger.
So strange.
She and this girl were naturally at odds.
Not at all like a real mother-daughter!
"Mom."
Seeing Mia Ginger going upstairs with her bag, Zuri Ginger sat back down, smiled, and said, "Don’t take her seriously."
"Which daughter talks like that to her mother? What’s wrong with scolding her a bit? No respect, only rembering her dead mother’s gri!" Charlotte Chester, still angry.
"She lived with that aunt for seventeen years."
"Crying since birth, like a clay doll, yet your dad adored her." Charlotte Chester relived past mories and lanted.
Seeming to almost forget, she was once saddened by losing her daughter.
When Mia Ginger first ca ho, she felt guilty but sohow, the longer the ti she’s here, the more dissatisfaction filled her heart.
Especially in comparison with Zuri Ginger.
The foster daughter being so wonderful, this estranged biological daughter was like a natural enemy.
Looking at Charlotte Chester’s slightly contorted face from anger, Zuri Ginger simply felt elated, suddenly rembered sothing, and changed the topic: "Oh right, Mom. I was going to ntion earlier. The novel is being adapted into a TV series. I recently t the director. Don’t know why but he’s interested in offering the role of the third female lead, what do you think?"
"Acting?" Charlotte Chester was very surprised.
"Yeah," Zuri Ginger felt a bit embarrassed, "the director says my physical condition is good and asked if I’m interested in entering the entertainnt circle."
She had been wearing heavy makeup lately, eting the director at the club.
Lighting is the most misleading thing.
Under the influence of alcohol, the slightly tipsy director enthusiastically invited her.
In the past, she looked down on the entertainnt circle.
But currently—
Her mindset changed, making her very curious about the bizarre circle.
"The entertainnt circle is rather chaotic." Charlotte Chester hesitated, "But if you can get famous, that’s a different story."
"I’m not entirely satisfied with my looks," Zuri Ginger pondered, "Mm, I plan to go to H Country for a minor costic surgery after the book signing, tweak my nose and chin, you think that’s feasible?"
"Costic surgery?" Charlotte Chester slightly frowned.
"It’s nothing major nowadays." Zuri Ginger smiled at her, explaining, "Just minor adjustnts. You can’t tell at all, eight out of ten in the entertainnt circle have had sothing done. You could co with , travel around, and do so beauty treatnts; you’ll look ten years younger, Dad won’t even recognize you."
"..." Charlotte Chester suddenly fell silent.
She ca from a humble background, hadn’t it been for Aiden Jiang’s mistaken identity, she wouldn’t have had the chance to marry into the Ginger Family,
But in fact—
It was Aiden Jiang who was drunk that night.
Proposing marriage was rely a responsibility towards the girl.
Unfortunately, the girl had no intention of settling down, leaving early in the morning.
She worked part-ti as a waiter at the hotel.
Seeing the door ajar, she thought no one was inside, entered to tidy up.
Unexpectedly saw Aiden Jiang.
And—
A quite exquisite strap dress hanging in the closet.
Her parents preferred sons over daughters since childhood, she’d hardly worn new dresses in her twenties.
Driven by greed, she carefully tried it on.
And caused a misunderstanding.
Aiden Jiang’s handso appearance, able to afford such a good hotel, she naturally didn’t hesitate and directly hid the waiter’s clothes, going along with the situation.
Now suddenly realized, over twenty years have passed.
Aiden Jiang had no feelings for her.
She knew this well but didn’t really care.
Can love be eaten?
Luxury clothes, luxury cars, mansions, status, that’s everything.
But right now—
Charlotte Chester touched the fine lines at her eyes, for the first ti feeling a bit scared of aging.
"You are the most filial one." Charlotte Chester, her mind in turmoil, looked at Zuri Ginger and smiled, "I’ve recently noticed more fine lines, poor skin quality, no skincare works. The celebrities inject sothing, wives who play cards seem to have tried it too, looking effective."
"Isn’t it," Zuri Ginger agreed, "those ageless idols in the entertainnt, not all ca from this! Beauty is a big project, life relies on a face, especially for won."
"Then it’s decided, after your signing event, we’ll first take a trip to H Country," Charlotte Chester said.
