Chapter 435 - 435 Being Despised
435 Being Despised
“Smith Design? Is it a design company? I have never heard of it before.”
“My father’s company is small. It is not comparable to a large corporation like the Wilson Consortium.” Isabella explained, “but my life is good.”
“Then you usually can’t buy new bags, right?” Melany frowned and said, “How can your skin still be smooth? Those cheap cosmetics will hurt your skin!”
Isabella smiled awkwardly. “It’s okay. I usually don’t put on makeup when I go out, or I just put on light makeup.”
“Oh my god, this is ridiculous!”
Melany looked at Isabella as if she was looking at a monster. She raised her fingers and put on an arrogant expression. “This is the ignorance of the ordinary people. Body care, skin care, reading, and cultivation. All of these are basic qualities that a girl should have learned since she was a child. Fortunately, you are a dancer and have some temperament.”
Angelina interrupted, “Our things might not be better. Isabella doesn’t use anything worse than us. Besides, this depends on the gene. I think she looks much better than those who wear makeup all day long!”
“This is cultivation and habits, not just the problem of the gene.”
“What does this have to do with cultivation?”
.....
Angelina did not like Melany to look down on Isabella. “Not everyone has a good background like you. Your father is a famous jewelry king, so you are born with a silver spoon in your mouth.”
Melany said proudly, “Indeed.”
Then Melany turned to Isabella, “Isabella, do you like jewelry? I can give you a few sets. I guarantee that they are all good stuff you haven’t seen in the past twenty years!”
Looking at Melany’s arrogant appearance, Isabella really wanted to accept for it was free. But because this was a family banquet for all the Wilsons, she smiled and nodded. “Thank you, but I don’t like to wear jewelry.”
“What? Isabella, you’re going to marry into the Wilson family soon. You need to change some of your concepts! Jewelry and bags are the necessities for becoming a member of a noble family. Those things can show your status, right?”
Melany directly said, “I heard that Charlie likes you very much, so you must be a smart girl. But to be honest, your identity is not suitable for our family. However, Joseph likes you, so you have to change your concepts in the future. You have to learn the life philosophy of the rich. Don’t give others opportunities to look down on you.”
Isabella was stunned and raised her eyes at Joseph. He lowered his eyes and shook the wine glass in front of him. Without speaking to Michael or Charlie, he was listening to the conversation between the women.
But when he heard Melany say that Isabella’s identity was not suitable for the Wilson family, his expression did not change at all.
Was it because he still cared about the kiss, or did he also feel the same way about her in the depths of his heart?
Did Joseph like her just because of novelty and her beauty? Did he feel that she was rude and not suitable for the Wilson family?
Unexpectedly, Charlie at the highest position did not care about Isabella’s family, but Melany despised her inside and out.
Earlier, after Isabella had officially brought Joseph back to the Smith’s for a meal, Rosa had called Isabella and told her, “Before you get married, don’t let your future husband and his family know your inferior life in the Smith family and how you were bullied at will. I don’t want them to look down on you. The Wilson family is so good. Even if you are the apple of the eye of Carl, you may not be regarded highly by them, let alone a stepdaughter who is beaten all day long. They will think that you are ill-bred, unkind, and cheap and will not see you as a good girl.”
At that time, Isabella smilingly said, “Actually, Joseph knows it all. He didn’t look down on me because of this. Instead, he pitied and sympathized with me. Charlie is also very good.”
“Pity does not mean anything.”
Rosa sighed, “Isabella, you are only 22 years old. You just graduated from university and don’t even have much social experience. You are still too young and naive ... If it wasn’t because the Smith family is not a place for you to stay, even if you and Joseph are in love, I wouldn’t agree to you getting married so early.”
Isabella smiled again. “You can’t bear to see me get married so early.”
“No, if Joseph treats you sincerely, I would like you to marry him immediately.”
Rosa paused for a moment. “But many women would flock to a man like Joseph. In your eyes, he might just be a man or a lover. However, in the eyes of many people, he is the walking money. He is the heir of the Wilson Consortium which is like a treasure trove!
Do you understand your identity, Isabella? If you can get married, you will be the mistress of this treasury! What you have to face, other than your husband and family, is all the people who have ideas about the Wilson Consortium!
I don’t know whether Joseph likes your appearance or loves you. Anyway, he can officially visit the Smith family and say that he wants to marry you instead of playing with you. I’m already very happy. You know, marriage is concerned about family interests, not just the life partner.
There are many feuds in a rich and powerful family. Outside, you have to be wary of Joseph being snatched away by other women. Inside, you’d better be careful and please everyone. Don’t be too careless. Only then will you be able to keep going on.”
At that time, after Isabella heard her mother’s words, she could not help laughing and only felt that Rosa worried too much.
Although the Wilson Consortium was out of the league of the Smith family, Charlie, Angelina, or even Joseph who was funny, and honest but also a bit cute, didn’t give Isabella any pressure at all. Even if Joseph was high and mighty in the beginning, it was different from the contempt of Melany. Joseph had some habits cultivated in a rich family, but later, Isabella knew he was kind and soft.
As a result, Isabella had thought she could cope with life in a rich and powerful family.
However, Melany’s words today exposed all of Isabella’s incompatibility. What did Joseph mean by silence? Did he really mind her family background?
Isabella was not even considered a Smith. Her father was the “culprit” of the infamous restaurant explosion case back then!
