Sweet Revenge

Chapter 252

Chapter 252 This Is Unreasonable

“Look at what you’ve done!” Hannah glared at Shawn and quickly got up to go upstairs.

Susan followed Ingrid back to her room. Ingrid was silent. Susan wanted to comfort her, but Susan did not know what to say. Susan could only stand behind Ingrid as if accompanying Ingrid like this could comfort Ingrid a little.

Instead, it was Ingrid who first turned her head and glanced at Susan, smiling.

That smile looked forced and heartbreaking. It was a forced smile. Ingrid said, “I’m sorry you had to see that.”

“Don’t say that!” Susan stepped forward and hugged Ingrid. Susan suddenly felt that her friend was more pitiful than

her.

Susan couldn’t get what she wanted, but Ingrid was facing her own parents. Shawn had a mistress and an illegitimate child. Besides, Shawn valued his son more than his daughter. Shawn would give the family business to the mistress and the illegitimate child rather than Ingrid. It was only because Ingrid was a girl.

Just as Susan was about to say something, Hannah had already come up. Hannah raised her hand and knocked on the door politely before pushing the door open and entering

When Hannah saw Susan, she was slightly startled. Hannah probably had not expected that there would be others around.

However, Hannah quickly reacted and nodded at Susan. Hannah smiled gently and said, “Susan is here!”

“Hello, Hannah!” Susan greeted Hannah.

Hannah nodded and walked straight to Ingrid. Hannah stood in front of Ingrid and looked at Ingrid for two seconds before saying, “Ingrid, why didn’t you hang out with Susan?”

It was clear that Hannah had not come here to say this, but seeing that Susan was also there, Hannah changed her speech.

Ingrid looked down at the floor in front of her and said indifferently, “It’s too cold outside, and I don’t want to go

out.”

“Yeah, it’s getting colder and colder. Shawn and I have been busy with the company’s business and don’t have time to take you to buy some clothes. We should have got you more clothes. Come…” As Hannah said this, she took out a card from her pocket, pulled Ingrid’s hand, and stuffed it into her palm. “Susan is also here. You guys go and buy some warm clothes together. By the way, help me see if there are any suitable new products. I don’t have time to go out and shop!”

Hannah said that with a smile, as if what had just happened never happened, and she had never been seen.

Susan was quite impressed. The ability to adapt and handle matters was truly worthy of being the woman in charge of the Petersen family’s internal affairs.

“Then I’ll help Dad take a look too. He never cares about his dressing.”

Ingrid’s words surprised Susan. Susan had thought that after hearing what Shawn had said, Ingrid would lose her temper and even cry. However, Ingrid didn’t do so, and she even offered to get Shawn some clothes.

Hannah was stunned and nodded with a smile. Hannah said, “That’s good! Buy two more scarves too. If you don’t have enough money, ask Shawn to reimburse you!”

Ingrid said, “Then I have to buy some more clothes!” NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

“Go!” Hannah patted Ingrid’s back and smiled.

After tidving up a little, Susan followed Ingrid downstairs. Shawn was sitting downstairs and smoking. Ingrid ran over and hugged his neck and said, “Dad, I’ll go buy you some clothes and two scarves. If I don’t have enough money, you have to reimburse me!”

Shawn chuckled as he turned his head. He said, “Of course! I will reimburse you!”

“Goodbye, Dad!” Ingrid kissed Shawn’s cheek and pulled Susan out with a smile.

Susan was stunned.

When Susan saw that scene, she didn’t feel well and felt that there was something wrong with her eyes.

Susan thought, “Why? Can it be that what I just saw and heard was all fake? Just like how Ingrid was filming on set and those were all lines, so even if Ingrid said something like that, she wouldn’t take it to heart.

Otherwise, how can Ingrid be so calm and composed? How can they be a harmonious family with a loving father and daughter? How can Ingrid still be nice with Shawn like that?”

Sitting in the driver’s seat, Susan silently started the car and drove out with Ingrid. Ingrid didn’t say a word.

Susan was still shocked. What had happened was a bit beyond her understanding.

That did not make sense!

Ingrid opened her purse and took out a small bag of snacks. Ingrid used her delicate nails to tear it open and took out a small piece of dried apricot and handed it to Susan’s mouth. Susan glanced down and shook her head. Ingrid did not insist and instead stuffed it into her mouth.

Ingrid said calmly, as if she was narrating someone else’s story, “Are you thinking why I can still be so close to my father after listening to those words just now? Why do I have to get him clothes? Are you thinking that I should cry and make a fuss, quarrel with him, and fight for what I should have?”

Susan didn’t know how to respond.

“That’s because I knew since a long time ago that crying and shouting could not solve any problems.” Ingrid chewed slowly, her eyes calmly looking ahead. Ingrid continued, “Whether I cry or make a fuss, or quarrel with my father, can I change his mind and let him see my ability? No!

“Doing that will only make him hate me. He will think that I am not sensible and that I am fighting for things with my

half-brother.

“The more he thinks that way, the more obedient and sensible I will be. He thinks that I am a girl and should do something that a girl should do. I will do what he wants to see and likes to see. At least to him, even though I am not a person who can take on the family business, I am the daughter that makes him feel most comfortable.”

The more Ingrid spoke, the harder she chewed on the dried apricots. Susan turned her head to take a look Susan felt that Ingrid’s entire chin was exerting a lot of strength.

Susan said, “Ingrid…”

Ingrid said, “I’m fine. You don’t have to comfort me. You see, every family has its difficulties. It’s no big deal.” Ingrid shrugged and said disapprovingly, “Before, I asked you whether you wanted to get him or his love. I’ve seen too many of those stories.

“You see, my mother is the one who got my father. That woman got my father’s love.”

Susan didn’t say anything.

Susan did not expect that Ingrid would be able to connect the two things, but Susan felt that what Ingrid said made

sense.

Susan focused on driving. Susan also listened to Ingrid as Ingrid continued. Ingrid had turned to look outside the car window. Ingrid placed one hand on the edge of the car window as if trying to persuade herself. She seemed to be muttering to herself, “Back then, when my father married my mother, he also had feelings for her. But so what?” Men love the new and hate the old. The more you care about him, the more he doesn’t take you seriously. The more you ignore him, the more interested he is in you.

“Isn’t it easy to get a man? Back then, that woman climbed into my father’s bed with a pack of aphrodisiacs. She successfully got pregnant. If my mother hadn’t been pregnant with me back then, that woman might have already taken my mother’s place.”

Ingrid paused. Ingrid turned to look at Susan and said, “But my mother is also lucky. If that woman’s family is strong enough, I might have become an illegitimate daughter now!”
