The Unwanted Girl Is Their Princess novel Chapter 64

Chapter 64

“Yeah, I like staying with Grandma, Zinnia replied with a blank face,

Zinnia’s aloof demeanor let Maelis at a loss. She asked a few simple questions, but the conversation quickly stalled. In the past, it was always Maeta who tried to keep the dialogue poing, while Zinnia would only respond with short answers.

Zinnia was nothing like Betty, who knew how to lift Marlis spirits with her cheerful chatter. Zinnia, with her cold and distant nature, felt like a stranger Maelis didn’t know how to approach.

She wanted to show she cared, but she didn’t know how.

Besides, Zinnia and Betty were constantly at odd. Maeli felt a deep sense of guilt toward Zinnia, but her heart also ached for Betty, who often ended op hurt in these conflicts

She couldn’t understand why Zinnia couldn’t accept Betty. The mix–up all those years ago wasn’t anyone’s fault it was just a cruel twist of fate Netcher of them was to blame

Both were her daughters–the only difference was that one she had raised since birth, and the other was the one she had just gotten back. Seeing them fight and struggle to get along tore Maelis apart.

“Zinnia, I’m sorry for what happened between you and Betty last time, I misunderstood you. Can you forgive me?” Maelis held Zinnia’s hand and stared ather with tearful eyes.

Sofia heard Maelis‘ sincere apology and finally felt a bit relieved. She thought at least Maelis wasn’t entirely clueless.

“I forgive you,” Zinnia replied. She pulled her hand away because Moelis” touch made her uncomfortable. She even tucked it behind her back, showing evident resistance

“Really?” Mars” Uce lit up with surprise. She hadn’t expected Zinnia to forgive her so quickly. Overwhelmed with joy, she didn’t even notice her reluctance.

She thought, know you’re a kind girl, Zinnia. Thank you for forgiving me.

Timothy, watching them, widened his eyes in disbelief. His gaze fixed on Zinnia, filled with confusion.

He thought, “How could she easily say forgive her, yet treat me with nothing but thoms, refusing to even speak to me?”

“Yeah,” Zinnia nodded faintly. She hadn’t taken Mals or Betty’s words to heart at all. She didn’t care about them anymore, so whether the forgave them or not didn’t matter.

She figured if forgiving them meant they would finally leave her alone, she would be more than willing to do it

Only Sofa felt speechless by how dumb Maells was.

She thought, ‘Did Maelis really think Zinnia’s forgiveness was genuine? Couldn’t she see that she was just humoring her? Zinnia had already let of any attachment to her as a mother

“Zinnia, you might have to stay with your grandma for a few more days, and I’ll pick you up soon, Malls said, her face lighting up with excitement. She seemed completely oblivious to Sofia’s pained expression.

Malls had noticed Donald’s reluctance to let Zinhla return home last night. She knew he was still upset, so she planned to spend the next couple of days soothing him before bringing Zinnia back.

Zinnia stayed silent. Ever since she had chosen to leave the Shaw family, the idea of going back had never once crossed her mind.

“Are you bringing Zinnia back to the Shaw residence? Then what about Betty?” Sofia stared at Maelis seriously, her question cutting straight to the heart

of the matter.

Chapter 64

Maelis hesitated. “Mom, what happened last time was just a misunderstanding. Betty didn’t mean any harm, and everything’s been cared up now Once Zinnia is back home, I’ll make sure to guide her properly

“They’re close in age, and Betty has always been easygoing. I’m sure the two of them can get along just fine” Malis glanced at Zinnia as if hoping for her agreement

In her mind, the conflict between Zinnia and Betty was nothing serious. It was just a small misunderstanding that could be resolved with a little effort

Since Betty had a good temper, Maclis planned to have her be more tolerant of Zinnia. She would guide Zinnia well too. She truly believed they could get along peacefully.

Besides, she had raised Betty for over a decade. She wouldn’t give up on her so easily.

Even though Maelis had seen the truth of the situation yesterday, she couldn’t bring herself to believe Betty was truly at fault. She thought she was just scared.

She believed that as long as she talked to them nicely, they wouldn’t reject Zinnia and that Betty would get along with her too.

“Didn’t I tell you not to come for Zinnia until you’d made up your mind?” Sofia’s voice was firm, her disappointment cutting through the room as she

looked at the indecisive Maelis.

Sofia shook her head, thinking, “Someone almost got seriously hurt, and Maelis still thought this was just a little squabble between sisters

She and Henry spoiled Maelis too much, and Donald had always treated her well, so Maelis had never really faced any major hardships in life.

However, just because of this, Maelis became indecisive, unable to tell right from wrong. When it came time to make tough decisions, she always softened and couldn’t bring herself to be firm.

“Zinnia and Betty don’t have to be at odds. They’re both my daughters. How could I possibly choose between them? Maelis hadn’t expected Sofiato push her so hard.

She turned to glance at Zinnia, then looked back at Sofia with a conflicted expression. Both Zinnia and Betty were her treasures, and she couldn’t give up

on either of them.

“Grandma, Betty was just scared and made a mistake. She knew she was wrong and promised she wouldn’t do it again we handle this properly, I’m sure Zinnia and Betty can get along. Timothy said, clearly taken aback by Sofia’s stance.
