Chapter 356
That night, Eric was also tossing and turning, unable to fall aslee
The banquet was to be held tomorrow. At this banquet, the new that the Kelley family had an additional daughter would be publicized.
Eric was quite worried because this way, there would definitely be a lot of gossip about Tiffany
He did not want to see his sister sad, let alone see her suffer.
However, now that the invitations had been sent out, there was even some news that had been leaked. No matter how much Eric resisted tomorrow's banquet, he was powerless to stop it, Eric kept thinking about what he should do.
Eric rolled on the bed, tossing and turning. In the end, he had a flash of inspiration and dialed a number.
No one answered.
Eric then typed and sent a long text message ouL
After doing all of this, he felt much calmer and more at ease.
The next day was a great weekend.
After a period of rain, the sky finally cleared up. When Charlie woke up, he said, "If it doesn't rain tonight, our banquet can still be held on the deck"
Thalia also smiled. "Yeah. It's a nice day. The weather is also not bad. It's really a blessing from the heavens."
As the couple spoke, they came out of the room and saw Melody cleaning the villa's hall.
Seeing this. Thalia was stunned and quickly walked over, asking, "Melody, what are you doing? Just let the servants do these things. You're the daughter of the Kelley family. You don't have to do these things." "Good morning, Dad and Mom," Melody smiled shyly. "I saw that the floor was dirty, so I cleaned it. It's not tiring. This is
okay."
She was obviously used to doing these things, so her movements were skillful and natural.
The Kelley couple suddenly remembered that when Melody was still living with the Princeton family, Karl would hit her for no reason. Her cleaning habit was obviously developed from long-term abuse. When Thalia and Charlie thought about how their daughter was used to living such a life, they felt upset.
Thalia took the broom from Melody's hand and threw it far away
She said, "That's all in the past now.
"Melody, you have to remember that from today onward, you are the dignified young lady of the Kelley family. No one can bully you, and no one can chase you away.
Therefore, you don't have to do these things to please anyone, understand?"
"Understood. Mom" Melody nodded and revealed a relieved smile.
B
Charlie and Thalia were relieved.
"By the way, Dad, Mom, I made these myself. These are for you Melody took out two exquisite sachets from her pocket.
A rich sweet olive fragrance walted over.
Thalia was surprised. "Are these made of the sweet olives from yesterday?"
"That's right." Melody was a bit embarrassed. "I hope you'll like it Dad, Mom
Thalia said. "Of course, we'll like it. You're our daughter, and you made it. That's a very kind gesture of you
"Not bad." Charlie also nodded repeatedly. "We're very glad that you have this intention."
After another twenty minutes, Tiffany and Eric also came down from upstairs.
Seeing such a harmonious scene from afar, Tillany really could not bear to disturb them.
Tiffany walked lightly, but Charlie had already seen her. He immediately smiled and teased, "Hey, lazybones, you aren't sleeping in today? You're just in time for breakfast."
Eric immediately exposed Tiffany. "She did sleep in! Tiffany was woken up because I knocked on the door!
Tiffany felt like teaching the snitch a lesson.
Tiffany pinched Eric's face and snorted. "On account of your adorable face, I won't beat you up today
The siblings slowly arrived at the dining room.
The atmosphere was not bad. The unhappiness from yesterday had disappeared.
Halfway through the meal, Thalia smiled and said, "We can't be sloppy at tonight's banquet. After breakfast, I'll bring you to try on the gowns."
Tiffany originally did not want to go, but after thinking about it, she agreed.
Just like that, after breakfast, the family sat in the spacious commercial vehicle and went to the largest and most high-end mall in Lovell City.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
The stores there were all luxury brands. The clothes were so expensive that it was jaw-dropping.
The Kelley family was rich, so buying clothes there was naturally not a problem for them. However, ever since Melody came to the mall, she had been a little distracted. She pulled Thalia's arm a few times and whispered, "Mom, aren't these... too expensive? Why don't we go shopping somewhere else?"
Thalia laughed. "Silly girl, just pick whatever you like. Buying clothes here is just a piece of cake for our Kelley family
"That's great." Melody was relieved. Then, she looked at the figure in front of her and said casually, "I just... I just don't feel like spending so much. I'm afraid I'll burden you and Dad, Mom
When she said this, Tiffany was telling the staff to wrap up half of the clothes in the shop.
Melody thought, 'As the real daughter of this rich family, I feel restricted when buying clothes, but Tiffany just bought half of the clothes in the shop... She's so extravagant! What a squanderer! Thalia was stunned.
However, she did not think that there was anything wrong with what Tiffany was doing. Tiffany and Melody were both her beloved daughters and the apple of her eye.
Compared to the Kelley family's assets, this was just a drop in the ocean.
However, after hearing what Melody said, Thalia immediately thought of something and immediately stuffed a card into Melody's hands.
She said, "This is your pocket money. Tell me and your dad when you're done spending it, understand?"
There was 100 thousand dollars in the card.
Melody took the card and nodded.
However, she was not satisfied with the amount.
After all, the Kelley family had lost her for so many years. As their biological daughter, it would not be an exaggeration to say that she would inherit half of the entire Kelley family's assets in the future. Melody thought that 100 thousand dollars were too little
Looking at how extravagant Tiffany was, Melody guessed that Tiffany's pocket money must be several times or even more than ten times hers.
However, what she did not know was that Tiffany had never taken a single cent from her family since a long time ago.
In fact, she was the one who gave her brother Eric pocket money every month. No matter how expensive the things he wanted were, she would pay for them herself.
Because of her current net worth and assets, she was firmly ranked in the top five of Lovell City's richest people list. To be honest, even Charlie was not as rich as her.
Even if the Kelley family had nine times more the assets they had now, they were not as rich as Miracle Healer alone. Moreover, Tiffany was running three big companies, including the advertising company managed by Caleb, the increasingly popular StarRise Entertainment, and the company that the Moody family had long transferred to her name.
Since Tiffany was the behind-the-scenes boss, what was wrong with her buying half of the clothes in the shop?
If she wanted to, she could buy the entire mall.
Tiffany spent money happily. She even bought a lot of things for his younger brother, Eric. Whether it was fashionable clothes or his favorite electronic equipment, she bought everything he wanted.
Whenever she walked past a store, she bought almost everything in it.
The manager of the mall was so happy that he ran out to serve Tiffany. He handed her coffee and was extremely attentive.
