Chapter 19: Outsider

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the morning, when Toya got up and washed up, she twisted around in front of the dressing table mirror to look at her bruised shoulders.

The medicine that Reyes took didn’t have a pungent smell, but it was effective. The place where he applied the medicine was no longer swollen.

Anna didn’t go easy on her. It still hurt.

After looking at her back, Toya lowered her head and lifted her skirt to reveal her thighs.

There was a small bruise on the outside of her thigh. She had noticed this bruise the day before, but because it was small, only the size of a fingernail, she thought that it would be gone after a nap. She didn’t expect it to still be there this morning.

It was a little numb.

When Reyes left last night, he put the medicine on the coffee table.

Toya took the medicine and rubbed it on her thigh.

When she came downstairs, Reyes was already at the dining room table.

The butler stood beside him with his head lowered, as if he was listening to him.

She walked over and the butler greeted her.

She replied politely, “Good morning.”

The chair was pulled out and her breakfast was on the table. She sat down and, since Reyes had helped her apply the medicine, she said, “Good morning, Young Master Reyes.”

This was the first time Toya had called him Young Master Reyes.

There was a hint of intimacy and importance.

She was a woman who was amenable to coaxing but not coercion.

Reyes was delighted. He mimicked her. “Good morning, Miss Toya.”

Toya smiled. She had always been cold, but her smile was a little silly and cute.

But she liked to tease others with this silly and cute smile.

“I hope to hear ‘Good morning, Mother,’ or ‘Good morning, Mom.’ I’ll be very happy.”

Reyes was speechless.

The corners of his lips, which were slightly curled up, hung down. His face seemed to be covered in a layer of frost, and he had a cold look.

But for some reason, he looked a little pitiful.

Toya loved to see him looking pitiful.

He was just like the one-month-old puppy that she had raised when she was young. It liked to rub its teary head against her for no reason and was especially cute.

After breakfast, the two of them took the car to school together.

Although Reyes’ feelings had been hurt by Toya’s words, he still remembered the bruise on her back and took the initiative to open the door for her.

The driver was fixed. He was the one who brought them to school yesterday.

The conversation between Reyes and Toya in the car yesterday hadn’t been pleasant at all. When the driver picked up Toya this afternoon and didn’t pick up Reyes, he thought the two of them were going to be awkward for a while.

He did not expect to see them getting along so well this morning.

In the car, Reyes cared a little about what Toya had said that morning.

“Do you really want me to call you ‘Mother’ or ‘Mom’?” Just saying these two words made him feel ashamed.

Of course not.

She just wanted to tease him.

Toya looked at him coldly and deliberated over her words. “If you call me that, doesn’t that mean that I’m the real hostess of the Wilson family?”

Although she didn’t show any signs of being restrained in Wilson’s house and was very arrogant when she interacted with Reyes,

But this arrogance was only because she was calm and not shy at all. It was because she controlled her arrogance perfectly.

She could stay here because Butler had invited her. She could eat well because the butler was considerate enough to prepare her favorite dishes.

She didn’t appear to be picky about anything the Wilson family gave her.

Actually, she didn’t like living in a room with someone next door or eating at a table without a tablecloth.

But this was not her home, and Butler and Reyes were not her father, who would dote on her unconditionally.

She could only show that she accepted everything well and was cold, so that others could not see her disdain.

For the Wilson family, she was just a guest who had temporarily borrowed their house in order to seek asylum.

She was living under someone else’s roof.

To put it more bluntly, it was not excessive to say that she was a stray dog.

Just like Anna had mocked her.

She had nothing left if she had lost her father.

And she was losing her father.

The current Madison family was more like a sword hanging at her throat.

A fierce sword that could cut her down at any moment.

If she could become the real hostess of the Wilson family, she would have an additional layer of armor.

If she could become the real hostess of the Wilson family, she could confidently ask them to change her room.

She could ask them to send her a few strong bodyguards. When she met people she did not like, she could ask these bodyguards to beat them up.

Just like how she beat up Anna yesterday.

Reyes paused.

He didn’t expect Toya to be so insecure.

He was sad that he had lost the opportunity to be with Toya. His heart fluttered when he saw and touched her. He was also sad that she didn’t like him.

However, he had forgotten that Toya was still an outsider to the Wilson family..
