CHAPTER 117: INVITATION

Hi Rosiielove, I love you. This Chapter is for you. Thanks for the gift. (⁠☆⁠▽⁠☆⁠)

In a very large mansion, maids moved in and out of the place, setting things and arranging the entire place. This would be the last time they were redecorating the entire mansion to the new mistress taste, yet for some reason, their master had rejected it all.

In his defense, he said he wanted the best for her. The maids were already exhausted.

They had been preparing for this moment for years now, they could only hope their new mistress loved the decorations. Because if she doesn’t, then they are done for good.

"When is she coming?" One maid asked another.

"According to Master, today is the day he is officially free from the restriction order and can finally meet his daughter. That is why he decided to throw a feast for celebration." The maid said.

"Oh, she’s so lucky. Throwing such an extravagant party for just one person." Another maid who overheard the conversation said.

"What do you mean throwing such a party for one person? She’s Master’s only child and heir to everything he owns. It would be a shame if he doesn’t throw a feast."

"I can’t wait to see what she looks like." One maid said enthusiastically.

"I bet she looks so much like master. Beautiful smile and all that."

"Don’t waste your time. She’s nothing like master. I’ve been opportune to see her picture one day I was wanting masters office." Another maid interrupted.

"Really? Is she really that ugly?" The other asked.

"Ugly is an understatement. She’s hideous. You can’t stare at that face for long." She hissed.

"Oh my." Another maid’s hands came to her face.

"How can master love such thing?"

"Can you blame him, that’s his only child." The maid responded.

"But how is it possible?" Another maid asked worriedly.

"Let’s just hope Master gets another child soon. We’ve all been trying to seduce him for years now, but that man seems so tough." One said.

"Is it possible he’s gay?" Another said.

"Hush before someone else hears us and we get into trouble." Another maid shunned her.

"Everyone return to your duty post now!" The head maid arrived and everyone scattered as fast as they gathered.

It was now all over the news that for the first time in 20 years, the Bloodsworth family was celebrating the return of their heiress.

The people of Owlsgrave were curious about who the lucky girl was. They have already begun to envy her. Conversations have spread around like wildfire.

The news has spread so fast that even Maybelline had found out about it.

"No! What the hell is this?" She threw the invitation card on the floor, in a fit of rage. What the hell was going on?

Has the restriction order expired? But when?

Why did her lawyers not inform her about it?

She had spent years keeping this stupid man away from his child, and she wouldn’t let them be together again. She has to destroy this reunion. Penny cannot have a sweet life, not after she ruined hers.

Up until today, her husband David made fun of her whenever they fought. He always mocked the fact that she was raped and always blamed her for it. Xavier Bloodsworth had ruined her life, and she must ruin his.

May turned on her cell phone and dialed a number.

"Why didn’t you tell me the restraining order ends this year, I should have filed for another," May yelled at her lawyers.

"I’m sorry Mrs Willard. If you still want to file the restraining order you can, but this time It’ll only be for yourself." He said.

"What do you mean for me? I need a restraining order for my family too. That fat pig included." May barked.

"I’m afraid you can no longer do that Mrs Willard. Miss Penelope is now above 18 and can decide to meet her father if she wants." The man said. He knew how hard it was for him to get a restraining order for more than 18 years the last time.

Only he knew he was able to achieve it because they blackmailed Xavier Blackwood about raping a young girl. But 22 years have passed since then. There’s no stopping the man now.

"You’re useless do you know that? If you can do your job, I’ll hire someone else." Maybelline hung up immediately.

"Ingrates." She barked.

"What’s going on May." David Willard with his cup of coffee in his hands picked the letter on the floor and read through it. Then he smiled.

"It seems your ex-boyfriend and father are having a reunion." He said calmly.

"That will never happen," Maybelline said.

"And how would you stop it? I’m sure by now, Penelope has received her invitation too." Maybelline frowned at his words.

"Even if he has sent her an invitation. That doesn’t mean she would accept him as her father. Not after everything he did to me." Maybelline sounded so confident.

She knew she had instilled anger in Penelope all these years towards her father. There’s no way Penny is going to forgive him for what he did.

Over at the Adkin’s mansion, letters arrived for both residents. While Abby and her family received their letters, Penelope and her household received theirs too.

"What’s that?" Abby asked her servant who brought in the red envelope. They were short on staff too, Penny has truly ruined their lives.

"An invitation from the Bloodsworths." The servant announced and Abby suddenly turned interested.

"At least one good thing is happening today amidst all of the chaos." She muttered taking the sealed envelope as she opened it to read its contents.

They have pushed Chris and Ariana’s second engagement party backward because of the new state of their mansion. There’s no way they’re letting anyone see this mansion.

"What is that mother?" Ariana who just walked in with a basket of cookies in her hands walked up to her mother.

"We got an invitation from the Bloodsworth family. It seems they finally found their heiress after 20 years." She said calmly.
