Reborn ghost seeing lady is pampered by her ex husband - Chapter 91

Chapter 91: Sisters, never!

Phoebe forced her lips closed in a firm line, her quizzical glance focused on Andre who had snitched already. That didn’t matter any way because sooner or later the Mayfairs were to find out.

[Mother, I had to get rid of those horrible humans, you don’t know how badly they treated me.]

Jennie gasped. Her trembling hand covered her mouth after reading Phoebe’s thoughts. She had no idea what she had seen or how real it was but since it came from Phoebe, she quickly figured out that it was her inner thoughts.

Everyone else was calm, she realized and she also figured that she only she was the only one that could see it. The small bond she had with Phoebe grew some more. This was probably a sign that mother and daughter had a special link.

She also realized that she knew nothing of the life her daughter had lived and it wasn’t as rosy as she had been assuming. She blinked continuously as tears came flowing down her cheeks.

“The Gabriels are no longer my family, I cut them off and paid them for raising me just like they requested.” Phoebe curled her lips distastefully.

Her words infuriated some of the Mayfairs except for Collin that was still skeptical.

“How dare they ask you for money? How barbaric of them…no…no, there is no way you are going to continue living on your own so that they can reach you as they please. Those people are capable of doing worse, move in here.” Grandma Mayfair wasn’t leaving anything to chance.

Through her life time, she had met so many greedy people like the Gabriels. Soon they would be back for more especially now that Phoebe was a Mayfair.

“Hell no!!” Collin’s voice reverberate in the room. “She cannot just move in here, we haven’t even told Ruth about everything that’s going on. I insist that we hear the Gabriels side of the story, this sneaky girl cannot be trusted.”

Jennie was stuck between a rock and a hard place because she couldn’t let Phoebe stay out there when she was her daughter. Then there was Ruth who was also her daughter, it was just a matter of time before she found out and it was obvious that she wasn’t going to take everything well.

“How dare you think that your say counts on this issue Collin? I am the matriarch and my word is final. Phoebe is moving into this house whether you like it or not. Ruth has to adjust to the new normal, if she doesn’t like it then she can move out.

Don’t forget that her parents are also going to be making contact with her. How do you know that she won’t move out to live with them? Stay out of Phoebe’s matters if you are not helping.” Grandma Mayfair used a raised tone to speak.

Andre stepped forward in full support of his grandmother’s words.

“Phoebe has every right to live here just like all of us including you Collin. We know that you adore Ruth, I mean we all do but Phoebe here is our biological sister and that means that she comes first.

Edward looked at Phoebe who was quietly listening to them. A lot had been said but they were yet to hear her opinion on the matter. They hadn’t asked her whether she wanted move in or not.

“What do you think daughter, do you want to move in or do you need more time to think about it?” His hand brushed over her head.

This was not a difficult choice for Phoebe because she had already made her decision. Even if they hadn’t asked her, she would still have found a way to move in, after all, it was her home too.

“Father, since I discovered who i was, I have done a lot of thinking. I decided that if the opportunity presents itself i am going to live with my family. In fact i am hoping to spend the night so that i can get to know you all better.” Phoebe’s eyes moved to Collin.

[It doesn’t matter if you don’t like it Collin.]

Collin clenched his jaw. It looked like everyone was buying into Phoebe’s good girl act. She was as pretentious as Ruth had said.

“What about Ruth? When do we tell her? Are the Gabriels even her real family? She could be a total orphan and we just break her fragile heart.”

They had all naturally assumed that since the Gabriels raised Phoebe that automatically made Ruth their biological child.

Phoebe read the room which was filled with confusion so she cleared the air.

“Oh she is their daughter alright, she looks just like her mother. Just to be sure, I did the test and confirmed this fact myself but you can ask them to do another just to put people like Collin here at ease.” She continued taunt him

“It doesn’t matter, you two are sisters and although you didn’t get along in the past, I believe that you will be closer now. Phoebe you should start by apologizing for beating Ruth and tearing her clothes.” Jennie made a good suggestion and smiled warmly at Phoebe.

On hearing her mother’s words, Phoebe laughed lightly. Her reaction puzzled all of them especially Edward who arched an eyebrow.

Phoebe placed a hand to her chest and said coldly. “I am sorry but sisters…no ..never. You should all know that Ruth and I aren’t friends talk more of sisters. I don’t like her and I never will. I hope that i am very clear on that. Oh and as for apologizing to Ruth, that will never happen, I would rather go to hell.” She browsed through her gallery and sent the dash cam footage to Andre who in turn sent it to the family group.

The Mayfairs were left speechless by Phoebe’s words, the girl was very blunt with her words. Jennie could only blame the Gabriels that raised her in an uncouth manner. If she had been raised under her care, she would be more polite and refined.

“Check your phones, I hope that you understand where Phoebe is coming from. Ruth is no saint either!” Andre folded his arms.

They were left in disbelief after watching the video. Still Collin had the guts to accuse Phoebe of provoking Ruth to do what she did.

“You slapped her first, she had to do something to get back at you. Ruth is a weak person naturally and she couldn’t fight you physically so she used her brain.”

His words caused Andre to sneer. “Is that supposed to be some kind of joke? This is why Ruth turned out to be a spoilt brat. Instead of condemning her acts you are blaming Phoebe.”

“Andre is right, both the girls were at fault. Collin as the eldest the least you could have done is to scold both of them and not to blame one.” Grandma Mayfair glared at him.

“Still, I cannot believe that Ruth did that! She lied to everyone. I cannot believe this at all! What possessed her?” Jennie blinked rapidly.

She was still struggling because she wanted both of her daughters to get along but Phoebe was headstrong and Ruth was proving to be a liar.

Edward sighed deeply. “Phoebe we have heard what you said and we will respect your wishes not to force you two to get along. I just request that you be cordial with her maybe in the future you two will learn to get along.”

Phoebe nodded once. “I won’t mind her but if she comes looking for trouble I promise to give it to her.”
