Chapter 431 Patricia Is Disheartened
“Oh, right, the clothes that Mr. and Mrs. Lusk wore today were all from Paige, and the ones from you…”
Amily added, “Well, you can go and check the seasonal storage closet”
As the name implied, the seasonal storage closet stored the clothes the family didn’t want anymore. Every so often, there would be someone to choose the fine clothes from the closet to do good and donate them.
Thousands of clothes were in the 650-square-foot closet. They were densely packed and uncountable…
Patricia couldn’t hold back the astonishment in her heart. When she went to the seasonal storage closet, she found that the clothes she had carefully selected and even spent a high price to hire designers to design were hanging in a corner…
Her parents hadn’t even put them on even once!
Patricia suddenly felt a little disheartened.
Tonight, Martin’s parents were going to visit them. Her beloved parents wore clothes Paige designed, but not the ones she gave them. Patricia wondered if they thought that the things from her were unpresentable.
“Ms. Patricia, have you noticed that your fate and these clothes are much alike? At first, you thought that Mr. and Mrs. Lusk would pay more attention to you, but the truth is that you seemed nothing to them…”
Patricia’s eyes dimmed.
Meanwhile, Amily’s eyes flashed with a touch of calculation.
Yesterday, she said to Donald and Danica that she would iron the clothes that Patricia gave them. After getting their consent, she secretly hung those new clothes in the seasonal storage closet and led Patricia to them. She wanted Patricia to misunderstand
The clothes that Ratricia gave her parents this time were mainly of dark colors. To leave no telltale signs, Amily took a few garments of the same colors that Patricia gave to Donald and Danica half a year ago, making them look yellow and old before asking Donald and Danica whether to keep those clothes.
They would not wear such clothes, so they allowed Amily to put those in the closet and donate them someday.
After a ***of hesitation, Patricia went downstairs and saw Danica arranging flowers. Patricia pretended nothing had happened and chatted with Danica in a relaxed tone for some time before she asked, “***, I took the clothes I didn’t want to the seasonal
storage closet just now and saw the suits I gave you… Do you and Dad not like them?”
“Oh, those…” the penny had dropped, and Danica remembered what Amily had said. Danica looked at Patricia with a smile. “Those
clothes are great, but we can’t wear them anymore. Sweetheart, you are a considerate girl, but you don’t have to buy expensive suits like those for us.”
Patricia asked, “Why can’t you wear them?”
“Just the colors weren’t right. It doesn’t look good to wear them.” Danica didn’t understand why Patricia asked that The colors weren’t right…. It didn’t look good to wear those suits…
Patricia pondered and soon understood.
She assumed the dark colors were too dark to wear on a happy occasion like tonight.
But her parents could keep the clothes for the future other than putting them in the seasonal storage closet.
Patricia glanced at the beautiful dress on Danica, thinking that such bright red might be much more suitable for tonight.
Patricia finally believed that Amily was not lying and that her parents had failed her.
Her parents did ask Amily to get rid of her gifts, putting them in the closet!
When Patricia was in the seasonal storage closet, she saw many of her favorite clothes had been abandoned there too, and no one ever informed her.
Amily told her that it was Mr. and Mrs. Lusk’s order.
Was this family unable to accommodate her and also her clothes?
Patricia didn’t ask any questions again. After a few more words with Danica, Patricia went upstairs. Her back looked somewhat lonely.
Danica returned to her flower arrangement. She felt something was wrong with Patricia today. Was it because Patricia saw that she was wearing clothes from Paige and that Patricia was disappointed?
With that in mind, Danica called Amily. “Amily, have you ironed the clothes that Patricia gave us?”
“Mrs. Lusk, are you talking about the latest batch from Ms. Patricia? It’s quite a lot with fine fabrics. I was afraid I would ruin them, so I made an appointment with the company where you always iron your
clothes. I told them to finish it as soon as possible, but they just happened to have other orders to do, so we might have to wait…”
Danica didn’t expect that coming, so she said, “How about this? Take them to me. Patricia is at home during the holidays these days. I want to wear the clothes she gave me…”
“Mrs. Lusk, I have sent them to that company already. Do you want me to get them back? I believe that Mr. and Mrs. Stowe will visit you here often, so I think it is better to iron the clothes. If you want them back, I will get them now. Ouch!” With that, Amily pretended to scream in pain.
“Amily, what’s wrong?” Danica asked worriedly.
Amily smiled, “Nothing. I accidentally fell today…”
“What? When did you fall, and where? Are you alright? Did you see a doctor?” Danica didn’t suspect Amily. Instead, she asked seriously.
“I’m fine. I’m just old and incompetent now. I think I will retire soon. Probably in two years.”
When Patricia got married, people would know that she was Patricia’s biological mother, and she would quit her job and live a good life!
At that time, Amily would no longer work there but live with Patricia..
Danica was a little reluctant to part with Amily. She told Amily to rest more and not to be too hardworking before she hung up the phone
After hearing Danica say the clothes were not in a hurry and ask her to rest well, Amily sent a Line message to Patricia to probe. When Amily confirmed that Patricia knew nothing, she was in a better mood.
It was eight o’clock in the evening.
A maid entered the house and told Donald and Danica happily, “Mr. and Mrs. Stowe are here. They have brought a lot of things!”
Eighteen bodyguards brought in the gifts the Stowe family prepared, and everyone was shocked by how generous the Stowe family
Was Donald and Danica were about to go outside to welcome their guests when Bonnie led Wilfred and Caroline into the door.
“Donald, it’s been a long time.” Wilfred greeted Donald the ****he entered the door. He shook hands with Donald and gave Donald a hug like a gentleman. Wilfred laughed and said, “I am so happy these days.”
“Wilfred, you are finally back! Tell me, how long has it been since I saw you?”
“Caroline, I’ve been expecting you!” Danica was delighted to see Caroline, and they embraced each other. “I haven’t seen you for months, but why do I feel you look younger? I thought traveling the world would be tiresome, but you are still in the best shape!”
“Well, I think it’s because of love. You know how much Wilfred loves Caroline,” Donald said smilingly novelbin
“You two are the ones in good spirits. After all, you get your daughter back!” Caroline also said nice things about Donald and Danica.
At last, all of them were seated.
The eighteen bodyguards brought in all the gifts and placed them neatly on the side.
“Caroline, it’s so surprising! Why did you prepare so many gifts for us?”
