Make them feel like they no longer want to stay here…
“Daphne, how about this… “
After dismissing everyone else in the room, Portia shared her ideas with her niece.
Daphne thought about it and added, “Aunt Portia, I think we can be more ruthless than that, for example… “
After Portia listened to Daphne’s suggestion, she clenched her fingers tightly while pondering over it. She felt that the younger woman had a point. They had to be more ruthless in order for that vixen and those brats to be afraid. Only then would they scram quickly!
“Daphne, we’ll do as you say.”
“Alright, Aunt Portia. I’ll make arrangements right away.”
Once Daphne turned around, a look of delight appeared on her face.
Seductress and little rascals, you just wait and see!
Maya looked at Nina’s floral dress in envy.
“Nina, your dress is so pretty! Can I wear it for a while?”
Nina looked up and stared at the chubby Maya with a look of contempt, before looking at her own dress, which was the latest in children’s fashion, and rejected her sister straight out.
“Nope, you’re going to spoil my dress!”
“I won’t, I will just wear it for a while!”
Nina rolled her eyes at Maya impatiently and replied, “You’re so fat! You won’t be able to fit into it.”
Maya looked down and touched her stomach. Then, she took a deep breath and contracted her stomach. “Look, Nina! My tummy became smaller.”
Nina pouted and replied, “Who are you trying to bluff. Anyway, I’m not going to lend it to you.”
Maya was stumped.
Hmph, Nina is so selfish! Maya merely wanted to see how she looked like in the dress. If it made her look pretty, she would get her mom to buy her one as well.
Being rejected did not discourage Maya from wanting to try on the dress.
She continued to observe Nina secretly.
Maya’s chance finally came when it was time for Nina to practice make-up techniques. As the older girl was worried that the make-up would stain her dress, she removed it and put it in her bedroom.
Maya sneakily took the dress and could not wait to try it on.
She undressed herself urgently and tried to put on Nina’s dress.
OMG, it’s so difficult to wear. As the dress wasn’t very elastic, the girl heard a tearing sound as she tried to pull the dress down.
Nina is so fierce. If she decided to scratch me, I would be disfigured!
But teacher said that we can’t lie.
What’s more important? My cute face or listening to what my teacher said? Maya was feeling very conflicted.
“If you don’t say anything, I will take it that it was you who did it. Don’t you know that you’re as fat as a pig? Didn’t I already tell you not to wear it?”
“Sorry, Nina.” Maya lowered her head and apologized.
“Sorry? Do you think you’re getting away with that? Replace this dress. It has to be the exact same one.”
Maya was speechless.
She was at a loss and stared at Nina with her large bright eyes. There was no way she could pay her sister back as she did not have money.
“Can I ask Mommy to buy you a dress on my behalf?”
“No! I want you to pay me back.”
Juan looked at Maya, who had a timid and awkward expression, and stood up for her. “Nina, I’ll pay for Maya instead.”
“No! It has to be her!” Nina was not about to let it slide.
