Reborn ghost seeing lady is pampered by her ex husband - Chapter 206

Chapter 206: Best fake actress, Jennie.

“Oooooohhhh!!!” Grandma Mayfair whimpered out. If one didn’t know better, they would assume the old woman was sick.

The sound made Phoebe laugh loudly and she run after Collin, curious about the new look and the inspiration behind it.

“Collin, wait up.” she called out loudly.

She caught up to him on the last step and he turned around.

“Hi..” he raised his hand and folded it quickly with a nervous look on his face.

He looked nothing like the cocky man that had just asked them if they had never seen a handsome man before.

Phoebe almost strained her neck as she looked up at him from side to side with wide expressive eyes that were very impressed with his new look.

[Shocking, wow!! this dumb brother of mine is actually good looking.]

“Hey, i was born good looking, you must be suffering from Myopia or something, that’s why you are dating that David Saxon.” Collin knocked his knuckles on her head gently.

Phoebe stuck her mouth out in a pout and rubbed the slightly sore spot which had been knocked.

“Does it hurt?” Collin moved her hand and rubbed the spot for her. “Sorry, i will be more careful next time and pinch your cheek instead little sister. Does it still hurt?”

Phoebe smiled and shook her head.

[Is this what it’s like to be dotted on by him? It sure is nice to have brothers that care so much.]

Collin smiled, regretful for all the time he had missed out on with Phoebe because of Ruth. He would have to spoil her more often and give her twice the attention and love he gave Ruth as a child.

“What have you done to your sister Collin Mayfair?” Jennie asked when she walked up on them with Collin still rubbing Phoebe’s head.

She winced when she noticed a few hairs that had fallen out of place.

“Look at what you have done Collin, it took me thirty minutes at least to design Phoebe’s hair. Why did you put your paws on her?”

“Paws!!” Collin repeated.

Jennie pushed him aside and she used her hand to get the hair back into place carefully.

“There we go, now it’s perfect.” She gave Collin one more glare and pulled Phoebe to the car. “Son, you can drive yourself, we need some privacy.”

Jennie firmly closed the car door before Collin could argue. Alone with Phoebe now, she started bombarding her with questions about herself and her childhood, grilling like Shark when he was determined to close a case.

“What is your favorite color?”

“White.” Phoebe answered. “Or Black.”

Jennie noted it down on a notepad.

“Ouuh…i like red too, because it’s the color of my hair and blue because it’s the color of the sky. I also look good in yellow.”

Jennie gave Phoebe a hopeless look, wondering if her daughter was going to just name every color in existence.

“I definitely don’t like blonde.” Phoebe said with grit. It was the color of Elizabeth and Ruth’s hair, the same one she had been forced to pass off as her natural hair color when they were scamming her.

“Blonde is not a color.” Jennie told her.

Phoebe frowned and got her phone, rather than argue she preferred to get answers from the internet.

“Mom, it says here that blond is a human hair color.”

Jennie blinked twice and sighed but perked up quickly and moved on to the next question.

“What is your favorite doll?”

Phoebe guffawed and she gave Jennie a look that said, are you kidding?

“Mom, do people have favorite dolls?”

Jennie nodded, to her it was a perfectly normal question because all little girls grew up playing with dolls. Ruth had no less than fifty dolls as a child, all of them expensive with houses, clothes, shoes, bags and tea sets.

“I don’t have, i have never owned a doll.” Phoebe answered nonchalantly.

Jennie’s shoulders sagged, she wanted to cry out but kept her emotions in check so as not to burden or sadden Phoebe. She wanted to find the Gabriel’s and beat then up some more. Why didn’t they buy Phoebe a single doll?

“Oh, i used to own a stuffed bunny, it was white and had the longest ears i had ever seen. As i grew older, the white turned to brown and the ears were torn off.” Phoebe tilted her head to the left as she recalled the last time she had seen the old torn bunny which had been patched at least a dozen times. “Aaron threw it out when i was four or five i think, he said i was too old for dolls.”

Phoebe scoffed, she found it funny that he had said dolls when she owned only one.

Unexpectedly, Phoebe was pulled into Jennie’s arms and hugged.

“It’s okay, mommy will buy you as many dolls as you want.”

“Err…” Phoebe mumbled wanting to tell her that she did not really care about it anymore. People did not really miss things they did not have. Besides, as a grown woman now, what was she going to do with dolls?

Not knowing what to do, Phoebe comforted Jennie, reversing the intentions of her mother to be the comforter and not the comforted.

Jennie pulled back after a minute and the questioning continued.

“What is your favorite cake flavor?”

Phoebe shook her head. “Anything as long as it’s tasty.”

“Favorite ice cream.” Jennie asked.

“Mmmm, neopolitan, i am greedy i want three flavors in one. I also like coffee and chocolate chip and mint. I don’t like single flavors like plain vanilla or plain strawberry.”

“Favorite TV actor and actress.”

“My brother is an actor, i will feel like a cheater if i have a different favorite actor other than him. As for actress, Diane Anderson, she is the best when it comes to action scenes.”

Jennie had never heard about this actress so she noted down the name.

This questioning continued until they arrived at the supermarket, When they walked in, they drew attention from others easily. One, because of the extravagant hair pins in Phoebe’s hair and two, Collin’s new look. The cuckoo factor could not be ignored, everyone knew that the new Mayfair heiress was a red head so when she was seen with Jennie, they knew exactly who she was.

As they walked, they stopped to greet others or others stopped to greet them, especially those that were part of the founding society.

The one thing they had not done so far was put a single item in the shopping trolley, a thing which confused both Phoebe and Collin.

“Mom, we have not bought a single thing yet.” Collin shared the observation.

Jennie glared at her son and humphed.

“Who said that we came to shop for things.”

Suddenly, she shoved the empty trolley and bumped into another woman and her daughter. Then, she put on some of the best fake acting Phoebe had ever seen as she approached the pair.

“Oh my Gosh, i am so sorry, that was so clumsy of me. My hands are so slippery today, are you hurt?” She put a hand on her mouth and gasped loudly as if she was taking her very last breath on earth. “Annabelle Lee, is that you? This must be your daughter Shana, Oh wow…she has really grown up.”

Jennie grabbed Shana’s hand and pulled her away from her mother, snatching her like a kidnapper.
