The Billionaire’s Maid Bride

Chapter 531

Watching Christopher’s face, Penelope knew he wasn’t going to be any help. She quickly turned to Leah, “Mom, see? I knew it! I knew Dad would always side with Allison!”

Ever since Grace got out of the mental hospital, Christopher had been giving Leah the cold shoulder. Her resentment toward Allison only seemed to

grow.

“Christopher, it’s not entirely Penelope’s fault, you know. And besides, it’s not like she needs to keep apologizing. Penelope is our daughter, and she’s the future Mrs. Lindberg. Everything she does represents not only the Flanagan family, but also the Lindberg family. If she apologizes, it’s like a slap to the Lindberg Corporation. We may be able to take it, but the Lindbergs…”

Christopher pondered for a moment, and then nodded in agreement. “You’re right, Leah. It’s a good reminder.”

Leah suggested, “To quell this PR storm, why not ask Allison to apologize?”

“What?” Christopher was taken aback.

Even Penelope looked at Leah in surprise. “Mom, why would she ever apologize to me? And besides, she hasn’t said a word.” Penelope, despite her resentment towards Allison, knew that she had let her anger get the best of her and fueled this scandal.

Making Allison apologize to her? Wouldn’t that just add fuel to the fire?

Leah said, “I have a plan.” She had been plotting for a long time. Allison was Grace’s beloved daughter. If Allison was under her control, it would be even easier to take revenge on Grace.

Christopher and Penelope perked up their ears to listen to Leah’s scheme.

“We can adopt Allison as our goddaughter. Penelope and Allison look alike, and Allison used to be our maid. We can use this to build a positive image for Penelope. Allison will be your ‘little sister’, and you were just joking with your sister.” Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

Penelope naturally agreed to Leah’s proposal. As long as Allison admitted to being her sister, the negative online comments could be minimized.

But Allison had to become the Flanagan family’s goddaughter??

“Mom, do we really have to adopt Allison as our goddaughter? Every time I think about being with this maid I just…” Penelope was about to complain when she saw Christopher’s chilling gaze. She swallowed the word before it left her mouth.

Christopher said, “The proposal is indeed viable, but are you sure Allison will agree? You know how you treated Grace.”

Leah replied, “With our family’s wealth, does Allison have any other choice? What’s her status, and what’s ours? Her father was our chauffeur, and her mother was our housemaid. Even she was born into a life of servitude in our home. What could she possibly be unhappy about?”

Christopher sighed, looking at Leah and shaking his head. His wife was largely to blame for their daughter’s spoiled character. He had also been too busy with work and had neglected his parental duties.

Christopher knew Allison well enough. “She won’t agree to this, but we could try the latter part.” He stood up, called for his driver, took his coat, and prepared to leave.

Leah stopped him. “Christopher, where are you going?”

“I’m going to have a chat with Allison.”

Leah said, “Let me do it. You’ve had a long day. Rest up.”

Christopher looked at Leah. “You?”
