"Levi, I'm thirsty. Get me a glass of water." On the surface, Mia was talking to Levi. However, Mia's true intention was for Silvia to bring her a glass of water instead.
Some time ago, when Mia was bored at home, she had watched a dramatic series on TV. It was about a girl from an ordinary family falling in love with a rich guy and ended up marrying him.
Just like how Cinderella met her prince, the story was initially a fairy tale, but the reality was rarely that perfect. The heroine of the series thought she was so lucky to have met the man of her dreams. However, on the second day of their wedding, she was accused by her mother- in- law of stealing jewelry.
Of course, it was impossible that the heroine had stolen her mother-in-law's jewelry. The mother-in-law asked her own daughter to fake the evidence in order to drive the pitiful heroine out of the family.
The heroine didn't steal the jewelry, but it was found in her room. There was nothing she could do to vindicate herself. What's more, that family didn't give her any chance to defend herself before accusing her of being the thief.
It was fine if the others didn't believe her, but even the man she loved didn't believe her... Later on, the heroine still stayed at their home, just to prove her innocence.
Mia gnashed her teeth in anger while watching the drama series. She put herself in the heroine's shoes countless times and decided she would never quietly suffer just to prove her innocence. Mia would set up bombs and annihilate the entire family for accusing her wrongfully!
After marrying Neil, he had restricted Mia when it came to her acting career. So Mia tended to find trouble when she had nothing to do. Coincidentally, she was recently quite idle, and Silvia had provoked her! So, Mia had to put on a dramatic scene for Silvia to 'enjoy'!
Although Mia was not a vicious mother- inlaw, she was still Jayden's elder. Hence, Mia intended to play the role of a twisted and troublesome elder. First, Mia would intimidate Silvia so she would not be rude to Mia anymore in the future!
Mia had a well-designed script in her mind for this 'show', but Silvia did not respond as she expected!
"Sister Silvia, this is our Aunt Mia," It was rare for Julien to drop hints for Silvia. Although he was usually cheeky and scheming, he was just a small fry when facing the women in his family. He could be bullied by them easily.
Alas, it was because all the men in the Kyle family loved the women too much. Although Julien was just a child, he was also a man in the Kyle family. He would just compromise when it came to these women...
Besides, the three women in his family were his closest relatives. If he didn't give in to them, how could he hope for an outsider to treat them well like he did?
Hence, this was the case...
"A-Aunt Mia..." Silvia was not willing to call Mia that, but she had to. Whatever it was, Mia was still Jayden's elder. Silvia had to show respect since this was her first time meeting Jayden's family member, apart from the boys.
"Levi, didn't you hear that I asked you to pour me a glass of water?" Mia deliberately shouted at Levi, ignoring Silvia. But she darted her eyes at Silvia again.
"Girl, you better get me a glass of water. If you do so, I might spare you." That was what her gaze indicated.
However, Silvia had no intention of tending to Mia. "Levi, Julien, Jayden is coming back in a moment. Go wash your hands and let's wait for him to have dinner together."
Silvia knew that Mia was dissatisfied with her, but Silvia just didn't want to suck up to her!
Mia was speechless.
How could Silvia treat an elder like this?
Mia was the elder. Didn't Silvia know that she was dissatisfied with her and was ignoring her? Mia was infuriated. Shouldn't Silvia try to please her?
However, it was obvious that Silvia had no intention of doing so. She completely gave Mia a cold shoulder.
Mia hinted at Levi to cooperate with her. Levi received the instructions but did not do anything about it. He merely looked at Mia with a dismayed face as he couldn't bear to hurt Silvia.
It wasn't just Silvia who was acting against Mia, even her own son was not on her side. Mia felt a fire burning in her heart!
Mia could no longer keep calm. "Young lady, I'm sitting right here. Why are you ignoring me?"
