Gracie’s Pov:
I buried my face in the pillow and sulked bitterly.
Why does my mother hate me so much?
How could she disgrace me right in front of that girl Cassandra?
Why was she so kind to Cassandra instead of her daughter?
I sniffed hard and wiped off my tears.
I heard a loud knock on my door.
“Gracie! Gracie….!!” That was mother’s voice.
I kept mute and continued crying.
There is no point opening the door for her.
Not after the humiliations I received from her today.
I got up from the bed and walked closer to the wall mirror.
Then was when I realised my bead bangle was missing.
I’ve always worn that on my wrist.
My jaw dropped in shock.
Where could I have kept it?
Flashback ?
Mother landed a dirty $lap on my face as tears rolled down my cheeks.
I stared at her in astonishment while Cassandra laughed excitedly.
“Mother?” I called out in shock.
“Don’t you dare talk to my… Our guest like that” Mother said
“Our guest? She just insulted us mother” I cried out
“Oh shut up! At least someone in your poor worthless family still has a little bit of sense” Lucy grinned
“Yeah… Your dirty good for nothing mother is a kind of manageable” Cassandra said rudely.
I stared at mother with a “Did_you_hear_that” look.
But mother only smiled at her.
I was gobsmacked!
“What would you like us to offer you dear child” Mother said nicely.
I glared hard at mother in shock.
She has never been this kind to me her daughter.
Now she talks to Cassie like she’s her child?
Cassandra scoffed.
“Offer us?” Lucy laughed as Casandra clapped her hands in a gossip manner.
“You are so unbelievable… Duh! I can’t breathe here talk more of eating anything here” Cassandra stared around in disgust.
“Oh… We could get you something nice” Mother said
“Oh please… Keep your kindness to yourself old hag!” Cassandra said.
“Mother she just called you a hag?” I said
“Shut up!” Mother shouted at me.
I kept mute as Cassandra laughed.
Mother walked closer to hold her wrist but she pushed her roughly to the wall.
“Yuck! Stay away from me you stinky swine… Your sight irritates me” Cassandra yelled at her.
As she turned to me.
“Too bad for you Gracie! Even your useless mother hates you too….” Lucy mocked me.
Cassandra stepped closer to me and dragged my wrist forcefully.
I struggled to free my wrist but her grip was too tight.
“Stay away from Jake Gracie! You’re nothing but bad luck to him” She screamed.
That was when the bangle unhooked.
She took it with her as she hopped into the car and drove off.
I rushed into the house in tears.
Present ?
Oh no! I think Casandra is the one with my precious bangle.
I gasped!
Mrs Martha’s Pov:
I walked about restlessly.
She’s all grown up now!
Beautiful ?
Classy and gorgeous…??
But she’s so saucy…
Anyways what else do you expect from a rich kid?
I wish I could hug and kiss her!
She’s so adorable!
I was still lost in thought when Regina walked in.
“Mother what was that for?” She cried out.
I quickly backed her busy with folding clothes.
“Mother that mannerless girl just insulted us and you had to slap Gracie instead of her?” Regina blurted out.
“She’s not mannerless” I defended her.
Regina scoffed.
“Like seriously mother?” She said
I nodded my head.
“Am still confused why you are siding with that spoilt brat” Regina said.
“Oh please Regina! Just go help Monica out” I said
She breathed heavily and walked away.
I sighed loudly in relieve..
Am so happy I got to see her after many years.
Mrs Charlotte’s Pov:
Cassandra staggered into the mansion drunk.
She laughed crazily and belched loudly.
I quickly got up from the couch and rushed.
Due to the heels, she almost tripped but I caught her.
She reeked of alcohol.
The stench of alcohol filled the whole place.
Ewww….
I’ve been worried sick waiting for her to come back.
Thank goodness!
Her dad travelled else he would have dealt with her mercilessly.
“Cassandra where the fvck are you coming from?” I asked
She laughed again and coughed as she threw up on me.
Gross! ??
“Disgusting! Where is your bag?” I asked her as I helped her lay on her bed.
“The car…” She said weakly already asleep.
I picked up her car keys from the drawer and walked out.
? ?
I opened the car door and brought out her bag.
This daughter of mine is so wayward.
I was about to close the door when my eyes caught with something.
I quickly picked it up.
A bead bangle ? ? …..
