Sweet May-December Marriage novel Chapter 47

Chapter 47 The Pocket Money

Cecilia Wesley, her family had been working as government officials for generations. Her grandfather had just retired from the State Council. Her father was now a representative member of the Council of Ministers with a lot of power. She was the daughter of the Wesley family and was born with a silver spoon in her mouth.

Her status was second to none in the entire Srolanya High School.

She hated the illegitimate child like the vampire hated garlic. Not to mention seeing her in person, even hearing that word could make her rage.

It was because soon after her mother died of illness last year, her father brought a woman and a girl home. They were mother and daughter. That girl was Daisy Wesley, who was only half a year younger than Cecilia.

That incident was unbearable for anyone, let alone Cecelia, who had a hot temper. She had been objecting to her father to get married to Daisy's mother. Ever since then, the whole of Srolanya High School knew that Cecelia hated illegitimate children very much.

Cecelia squinted her eyes and looked at Charlotte a few times, and she said, "Look at you. Do you feel aggrieved?"

Before Charlotte could speak, she spoke again, "There is nothing you can do about it even if you feel aggrieved." Cecelia smiled viciously, "Who asks your mother to be so shameless and destroy another's family?"

Charlotte raised her head suddenly and said, "Hey, you."

Cecelia looked at her calmly.

Charlotte spoke with a Southern accent. She always sounded very soft and weak. Her tone wasn't aggressive at all but sounded sweet instead. Even at that moment, she spoke very softly but with a sense of stubbornness and determination in her tone, "I can't choose my origin, but at least I can choose my future."

She looked at Cecelia without fear and continued, "I don't blame my mother, because I know she was deceived."

Vivian's expression became awkward. Didn't Charlotte mean that Jonathan was the one who deceived the young girl outside by saying that?

She stood up, smiled slightly at Cecelia, and said, "I'm sorry. My sister is too rude."

Cecelia replied, "You are much more sensible than your younger sister."

Vivian couldn't figure out what was Cecelia trying to say at that moment. She continued, "Although Char and I aren't from the same mother, in terms of blood relation, she is still my younger sister after all. Cecilia, how about..."

Seeing Vivian begging for mercy on behalf of her illegitimate sister, the rest of the class looked at her with more sympathy, and felt more disgusted about Charlotte.

Seeing Vivian begging for mercy, the class teacher hurriedly said, "Cecelia, that's it. Charlotte won't sit with you anyways."

Cecelia smiled noncommittally.

Eloise waved to Charlotte and asked her to sit with her. Charlotte smiled gratefully and sat down on the empty seat next to her.

The class teacher breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Okay, everyone, let's start the class."

Eloise covered her face with a book, and whispered to Charlotte, "What do you think about transferring to another class? Cecelia will definitely make things difficult for you."

Charlotte was stunned and asked, "I... I'm an illegitimate child. Don't you hate me?"

Eloise frowned and said, "I do hate illegitimate children. As you know, most of our families are married for profit. Therefore, there are a lot of extramarital affairs, and illegitimate children are everywhere. But..." She smiled at Charlotte and continued, "But I don't think you are that kind of person. Since you aren't like that, your mother is definitely not the kind of person who would sell herself for power."

Charlotte had never heard anyone say that before. Her heart suddenly felt warm, like a person who was about to be frozen to death by a snowstorm in the winter suddenly got a kettle of warm wine. That made her feel very touched.

Charlotte lowered her head and asked, "Is the person you mentioned, Cecilia, the girl just now?"
