After glancing at Rose and Amelia, she landed her eyes on Rita. She then covered her mouth hurriedly
like she had said something wrong.
She then bit her lower lips, “Miss Brown? Did I say something wrong? Why are they so shocked?”
Strings of tears even dropped when Annie was saying this.
Looking at Annie’s face, Rita twitched her mouth.
Um... what happened to this world?
How come the once brave and strong Annie was acting this way today?
Was this all an illusion?
Well, it must be.
Rita then opened and closed her eyes again unbelievably to shake off this false image.
But Annie was still knelling in tears.
Rita then had to accept the reality.
She immediately walked over and held Annie up, “It was just a small favor. You don’t have to do this.”
“It might be a small thing for you, but for me, it’s about my reputation.”
Rita then whispered to Annie awkwardly, “What are you doing here?”
“I’m helping you.”
“What?”
Rita started at Annie confusedly and didn’t know what she was talking about.
But Amelia noticed that Rita recognized that fact that she saved Annie form Ralph.
She right stood up, “Rita, is Miss Lowe saying the truth?”
“Well...”
“So you didn’t tell Mrs. Brown? Rita?”
Annie added before Rita can even say anything.
Annie’s words actually answered Amelia’s question for Rita.
She maybe was just a bit surprised before, but now, she was really in shock.
So Rita was actually the one who saved the Browns.
Amelia even more touched at this point.
She thought that Rita would never help the Browns.
Well, she really took it wrong.
Amelia then held Rita’s hands gleefully, “Rita? How come that you didn’t tell me this?”
Rita actually wasn’t used to Amelia being so gentle.
She also didn’t intend to let the Browns be aware of this.
She was just honoring her promise to her grandpa to protect the Browns.
But...
This might be the last time.
So she didn’t want to mention this.
But the whole thing just derailed from its original tract.
God knew what happened to Annie to let her pull this stunt.
Since the whole thing was out, Rita can only admit, “Grandma, I’m happy that the coast is clear now. I
ought to help this family, so it’s not worth of mentioning.”
Amelia was even more moved when she heard Rita’s words.
Rita wasn’t even trying to show off what she did.
How modest was she!
She was so much better than those people who sent those teas.
Though she said that she would let Rita take over the company, she was still on her guard.
But after this, something had changed in her.
She really felt that it was time for her to let go of those prejudices and really give Rita a chance to prove
herself. If she was really helping the Browns whole-heartedly, she might really let her manage the
company in the end.
“My baby Rita, I really don’t know how to say this. You really can’t hide these sort of things from me in
the future. I would be much happier if I know that it was my granddaughter who saved the whole family
and I really felt like the someone can finally carry on the family torch!”
Amelia was even more fond of Rita now.
She was actually saying these words from the bottom of her heart.
Annie was really happy to see Amelia’s change. This was exactly what she wanted.
Someone just ought to be reminded.
But Rose really felt like crying at this point.
She was furious that the whole plan of preventing Rita entering the company failed again.
Forcing back her anger, Rose held Rita and smiled, “Well, Rita, how can you hide such a big thing from
us? We still have to thank Liam even though you don’t care about this. He really deserves a treat after
what he had done to our family.”
Hearing Rose’s words, a trace of coldness flied past Rita’s eyes.
Though Rose was pretending to praise her, she was actually give Liam all the credit of helping the
Browns.
She was actually sinuating that she just relied on Liam to sort out the whole thing.
Rose really wanted to take advantage of every opportunity to belittle her.
She didn’t want to ask for credits, but now, she really needed to do this!
“Right, we should really invite him for dinner.” Amelia also nodded.
Rita was even more angry when she heard Amelia’s words.
She had to show them that she did the whole thing herself!
She was not the fool like she was before!
While Rose pulled Amelia’s away for refreshments, Rita looked down and logged on an app.
She also turned the volume of her phone up.
“Rita, you really wasted my performance.”
Annie looked at Rita anxiously while Rita was on her phone. “How come you are so lame in your
house? How come you are not as fierce as you were in the hotel?”
Rita’s mouth twitched when she heard Annie’s comment. She then waved her phone, “Lame? No, NO.
just sit back and relax.”
“That’s what I’m talking about!”
“Don’t stand around, Rita. Come and enjoy this tea with Miss Lowe.” Seeing that the pair was gossiping
about something, Rose smiled to them.
Then she handed Amelia a cup of water, “Mom, have some of this. Charlotte bought this for you
before.”
After belittling Rita, Rose tried to lift the image of Charlotte in Amelia’s heart.
Rita sneered when she noticed Rose’s behavior.
What a great move!
But at the very next second, her phone was suddenly bombarded with messages.
Amelia’s attention was naturally attracted by the noise, “What happened to your phone, Rita? Why is it
buzzing constantly?”
“Well, it’s just...”
“Isn’t this the post on the internet!”
Annie suddenly screamed before Rita can say something. She then just grabbed Rita’s phone and read
the messages, “Wow! Miss Brown, so you are the one who wrote the post that helped the Browns!”
While Amelia and Rise were still in bewilderment, Annie handed them the phone, “Mrs. Brown, Rita is
the talent you are looking for!”
