- Chapter 194 Daisy’s Hurtful Words
The moment Daisy heard Kate’s voice, she ran toward her, “Kate, you are back!”
Kate hugged her, pointed to the dish on the table, and asked, “Too much to eat!”
“Not too at all! You are seldom home now. So of course, I wanted to make all of your favorites,” Daisy said, “I am thinking you must be hungry. Go wash your hands, and then come eat dinner!”
Kate didn’t see Anna around, so she looked toward the stairs and asked, “Where is Anna? Why hasn’t she come down for dinner?”
“She…” Daisy paused and then smiled, “I guess she is sleeping. Don’t disturb her. We will eat, and she can heat the leftovers later.”
“Sleeping at dinner time?” Kate wondered.
Suddenly, Anna ran downstairs and shouted happily, “Sister Kate, you are back!”
“Yes, come down to have dinner,” Kate didn’t feel nearly as awkward around Anna as she had before. The bad memories were the past, and she was so happy with Joseph. She had become more tolerant of Anna and her previous behavior.
“Remember, you need to eat on time. If you have nothing to do during the day, you can spend time with Daisy. Don’t stay in your room all day,” Kate reminded her.
“But……”
“Wash your hands!” Daisy interrupted.
Anna gave Daisy a fearful glance, “Yes…”
Seeing Anna’s frightened look, Kate pulled Daisy aside and whispered, “Don’t be so stern when you speak to her.”
Daisy said embarrassingly, “Kate, I don’t want to treat her this way either. But when I saw her, I got upset. Then I couldn’t control how I said it.”
“She doesn’t remember anything, so everything is unfamiliar to her. She will not harm us, and we cannot continue to judge her for her past actions. It will cause her to rebel, and then something bad may happen.”
“Sister Kate, let’s have dinner!” Anna stretched her hand out to grab Kate’s hand.
Kate looked at her and took her hand, “Thank you, Anna.”
“You’re welcome!” Anna smiled happily.
Daisy looked at the two smiling at each other. Suddenly her face sank, and she sat across from them without saying a word.
Kate filled a plate for her and Anna, then said, “There are a lot of dishes here. We must try our best not to waste them.”
“Okay!” Anna said as she gobbled it up, “It’s so delicious. It’s been a long time since I had any food.”
“What?” Her words aroused Kate’s curiosity.
Daisy was so scared that she interrupted Anna quickly, “Eat your meal, don’t talk. Otherwise, you can’t eat at this table!”
Anna was so frightened that she quickly dropped her fork.
“Go on and eat,” Kate whispered to her.
“Thank you!” Anna said with her head lowered.
After dinner, Anna took the initiative to wash dishes.
Completely shocked by her actions, Kate stood back and watched. She had never seen Anna wash dishes, but she didn’t complain and seemed delighted to be doing them.
Daisy said, “Kate, don’t feel sorry for her. We are much more merciful than she was in the past.”
“So, you told her to wash dishes?” Kate realized that she would not have rushed to clean the table immediately after eating if Daisy hadn’t told her.
Daisy did not deny anything; she replied, “She doesn’t do anything. Washing dishes is not a hard job.”
“Daisy, do you know that your attitude toward her is horrible?” Kate asked.
“I just think about the past, and then I am so angry…” Daisy said, her voice trembling.
“I’ve told you that she has lost her memory and not to take advantage of the situation. If you choose to mistreat her, there is no difference; you are now doing what she did to us in the past. You are not that kind of person.”
Daisy bit her lip, lower her head in shame.
“Daisy, I do not mean to blame you. I just hope you can forget the unhappiness before and cherish your life now and in the future. Looking back will only make you unhappy.”
There was a long pause, but Daisy finally said, “Kate, you have changed…”
Daisy’s comment hurt Kate. They had gone up together; they were sisters, she didn’t understand, “Why would you say that?”
Daisy pointed to Anna, washing dishes, and growled, “Her mother killed your mother. That pain cannot be erased, no matter how hard you try. But it seems like you have forgiven her. You have really changed. You may have been kind in the past, but you could still see the difference between right and wrong.”
“But now? You are in love with Joseph. The happiness that love brings you has caused you to forget the pain that Anna and her mother inflicted upon you. And, you forgot about the sacrifices your mother made to establish her company. Now, all you care about is love. You don’t even want to manage the company that your mother worked so hard for! You just gave it to Joseph!” Daisy snapped.
“Daisy, you…”
Daisy wouldn’t let Kate speak, “Yes, I know what I said will hurt you. As an outsider, I also know that I have no right to tell you how to live your life. But Kate, your mother was kind to me, and I can’t let everything she did be destroyed by you. So, I asked you to come here tonight, to remind you about your mother, her death, and not to throw away your mother’s hard work!”
Hearing Daisy called herself an outsider broke Kate’s heart. Although Flora adopted Daisy, in her heart, Kate always considered them to be sisters. Kate reached out to touch Daisy’s shoulder and said, “Daisy, you should calm down. Let’s sit and talk peacefully.”
Daisy pushed Kate’s hand away.
Anna stopped washing the dishes and looked nervously at the two.
“Kate, tell me now! Me or Anna, who do you choose?” Daisy pointed to Anna, “Since the day she and her mother joined this family, my life has been horrible. They tortured me; they beat and insulted me, ordering me to do everything!” Daisy yelled.
“Now she pretends to be crazy so that she can live a leisurely life here. I still have to serve her. She is spoiled! She has done so many horrible things, but it is as if nothing has ever happened because she can’t remember. If it’s that simple, if I was to stab her to death, then pretend to be insane, would I be forgiven?” Daisy snarled, her eyes full of anger.
