Love Coming from the Least Expected

Chapter 592

Hearing Mark’s words, the bodyguard stopped beating Scarlett. Dissatisfied, Isabelle frowned and shook her head. “I don’t know who you take after. How can you be so kind.”

“I just don’t think it’s necessary.” I smiled. People were born to sympathize with the weak. I could not bring myself to be an onlooker when two men were beating weak women. Moreover, they were Nathan’s wife and daughter. Even if they had nothing to do with me, I should stop it because of Nathan.

“Forget it. It’s up to you.” Shortly afterward, Isabelle waved her hand and brought Mark to the garden.

Then, I walked over and assisted Yvette in helping Scarlett up. However, as soon as I touched Scarlett, she pushed me away. “Get lost! You don’t have to pretend to be kind. Do you think I’ll appreciate your fake kindness and help you deal with Crystal and her mother? Don’t even think about it!”

Frankly, I had never thought about it that way. The only thing I ever wanted in my life was to live a good life with Christopher. It was too taxing to take revenge on others, so there was no need to get even with every single person that had set me up.

When I saw that Scarlett could not even stand properly, I called an ambulance for them because of her miserable look. After they moved Scarlett on the stretcher and carried her into the ambulance, Yvette, who had already got into the ambulance, came down again and said to me, “Thank you, Yvonne.”

“It’s okay. I just did what I wanted to do. I have a clear conscience,” I replied softly.

Lifting her head, she glanced at me and whispered into my ears, “I saw your mother meeting with Crystal very frequently. You’d better be careful. I’ve got a feeling that Crystal is plotting something again.”

“What?” My first reaction was that Yvette was trying to drive a wedge between Mom and me. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“No matter you believe it or not, that’s all I can say. Perhaps, some things aren’t as simple as you think. You’d helped me once, and I’ve returned your favor, so we’re even now. The next time we meet again, we’re still enemies.” Yvette cast a brief look at me before turning around and leaving.

Staring at the leaving ambulance, I knitted my brows. What did she mean? Is there some kind of cooperation between Mom and Crystal?

Compared to Crystal, I would rather trust Yvette, but I could not ask Mom directly about the matter. Even if I asked, she would not necessarily tell me.

Three days later, there was a grand banquet at the Goldstein residence, and it was prepared for me. After Mark acknowledged me as her daughter, he completely changed his attitude toward me. Probably, it was because he did not have any children. He liked me very much.

In addition to giving me the best room in the mansion, he also bought a lot of things for me. Every time I wanted to refuse, he would say that he was not by my side when I was young, so he wanted to do something for me to make up for all those years.

Since he had said so, I could not refuse him anymore. The banquet was organized by Mark. He wanted to hold an unprecedented grand banquet and solemnly announce my identity to the upper class in

Avenport.

Standing in the piano room, I ran my fingers on the limited-edition piano in front of me. Actually, I had mixed emotions. From time to time, I could hear the sound of car engines and people’s laughter from downstairs.

“Ms. Tanner, it’s almost time. Mr. Goldstein asked you to change your clothes and entertain the guests with him.” A servant walked in and said respectfully.

“I’ll go right away.” Moments later, I went back to my bedroom and opened the closet. Just when I was about to change, a lot of servants came in. Some helped to take off my clothes; the others put on the evening dress for me. After I sat on the chair, a professional makeup artist and stylist did my makeup and hair.

Looking at myself in the mirror, I felt strange. The delicate makeup accentuated my beauty, but I did not resemble Isabelle and Mark at all. Am I really Mark’s daughter?
