Reborn and Revenge novel Chapter 42

If Daisy married a man like Jason, her and her mother’s status would be higher.

After more than twenty years of marriage with Frank, she was nothing more than superficial good.

To the outside world, she was Mrs. Duncan, but in Duncan family, even if Isabelle was dead, she had been suppressing her. She had not been taken as the eldest sister-in-law or daughter-in-law. Behind the scene, her sisters-in-law never took her seriously, waiting for an opportunity to squeeze her out, always looking forward seeing she made a food of herself.

She had expected Leo to make her proud.

And now, she found she had Daisy!

She was in good mood!

It was Clayton’s seventieth birthday, so it was more ceremonious.

Not only the Duncan Villa had action, those branches of Duncan family, relatives and the business circle of M City were all waiting for such an important day.

The Duncan Villa got busy half a month ahead.

The public relations department of Duncan Group, according to Alexia's instructions, got into the Duncan Villa and worked together with the housekeepers to get the party ready.

Every night, Angel stayed with Alexia, heard the reports of subordinates and did the deployment of each work.

No one cared about Angel going out early and coming home late. No one asked what Angel did every day.

No one knew Angel was at work.

In the eyes of the Duncan family, she was still the same fool she was years ago.

She was simply taken under the wing of Alexia.

This birthday banquet, for everyone, was a rare performance opportunity. And they had their own goals.

So, everyone in the Duncan family was very busy.

And they paid no attention to nothing but the party.

Only two days was from the birthday. The most important person in the Duncan family - Kyle - had not come back.

That made some people nervous.

Maisy muttered to Frank, "Didn't Kyle tell you when he would be back? Outwardly, he's a Duncan, but internally, he's your son after all. These years, he's never been with us on the birthday celebrations. With all families there, it did not matter. But there will be many outsiders, he should respect you.”

Frank frowned and said nothing.

Maisy looked at him, not going to let go.

Frank said, "I heard from Taylor that he promised father he would come back. The exact time hasn't been decided yet. He will do what he promises."

Maisy was discontent, so he did not know about it.

"Well, what shall we do then? We have to stay together, don't we? Otherwise, it will be embarrassing." Only when Kyle stood in their ranks could she and Leo and Daisy’s position be recognized.

These years, Maisy was very persistent to this matter.

Isabelle agreed her to marry into the family. She did not care about her title, as long as the Duncan family admitted her two children.

But she did not expect that since they moved into the family, Isabelle moved away from the house and did not see anyone of the family till she was dead.

Then the relationship between the Duncan family and the Marsh family fell to the freezing point, and the loss of the Duncan family was difficult to estimate.

From that year on, Frank was never promoted at the family.

They became chief culprit, the death of Isabelle became their sin, making them be looked down upon.

She hated that woman.

She wished to set off firecrackers to celebrate her death.

But even if she died, her son continued to oppress her.

Every year on Clayton's birthday, he took his sister and never knelt down with them.

And then he was alone, and he never let his sister come back.

He never thought of them as a family.

He never acknowledged her as a stepmother.

Perhaps no one cared about this matter. After all, twenty years had passed. She was Mrs. Duncan both externally and internally.

But it was her worry.

Frank frowned. "Oh, come on, why are you so stupid for such a small thing? The host is arranged by Alexia. You will not be embarrassed, after all it is such a big scene."

Frank did not ask his son's itinerary. Since Isabelle's death, no, since Maisy and her children were exposed, for more than twenty years, the number of their talking was countable.

Maisy secretly gnashed teeth, but she was helpless.

She could not understand why Frank was so afraid of his own son!

It was reasonable he was afraid of Clayton because he was his father, but he was afraid of his own son! She had never seen a father as cowardly as he was, but he gave Leo beating and scolding.

Daisy burst in and shouted, "Mom, lend me your diamond necklace, I don't match any of mine!"

Maisy took a look at Frank and swallowed the words she was to say. Then she helped Daisy find jewelry.

"Dad, I have a fancy on a bracelet, can you buy it to me?" Daisy saw Frank and acted in coquetry.

Frank was happy to be interrupted, so he said, "Go ahead and get my secretary to sign the bill."

"Thank you, Dad!" she said, and gave him a kiss on the cheek. “I love you, Dad!"
