Chapter 299 Maisy hadn't expected to run into Steven and Charles. She had just recollected her composure and was about to knock on the door again.
Sensing their indifference toward her, she cursed inwardly. Nevertheless, she maintained a cheerful facade and said, “I cto see Mom and you two." Steven was somewhat surprised by the drastic change in Maisy's attitude.
On the other hand, Charles snorted coldly. "No need to act all friendly. You're not welctoday. Cback another day if you want." It was their family time, and they didn't want Maisy around.
Maisy bit her lip, her eyes tearing up. "You're my brothers, and I wanted to see you. I know I was wrong before, and I've realized my mistake.
"I hope you can forgive me. Steven, I truly understand now. You guys are my true family," she said earnestly, looking at them both.

Maisy chewed her lip, a tear rolling down her cheek. "I get it, you don't wanthere. Fine, I'll leave now." As she turned to leave, the door behind her suddenly opened.
Janine stood there, surprised. "Maisy?" She had heard Steven and Charles talking outside, prompting her to open the door. "Mom, I... I cto see you." Maisy's heart jumped. She had been planning to give Janine a call once Steven and Charles were inside.
She wanted to lament a bit and maybe garner ssympathy. Perhaps she could benefit from this situation. Janine was happy to see Maisy, but Skylar was also around, and they had all agreed to gather together. After all, none of her children were particularly fond of Maisy.
Janine was momentarily unsure of how to react to Maisy's sudden appearance.
"Mom, are Steven and Charles back?" Skylar's voice cfrom inside.
Skylar? Maisy sneered inwardly. No wonder they didn't want her inside; Skylar was there too. Perfect! "Skylar's here too?" she exclaimed with feigned surprise, looking at Janine eagerly.
Janine could only nod.
Skylar heard Maisy's voice, and her smile faded. It had been a long tsince she had heard Maisy call her so pleasantly.
Skylar walked to the door, greeted Steven and Charles, then turned to face Maisy. It had been a few days since she'd seen her.
Although Maisy looked a bit pale, her makeup was impeccable. She was still as stunning as ever.
"Skylar, I'm so happy to see you at Mom's!" Maisy said with surprise.

Harvey, who was standing by the door, snorted at her act) "You're 'so fake."
Maisy's smile stiffened. "It's up to you to believeor not I know there el have been misunderstandings in the past, but I'm genuinely happy." At this moment, the whole family was crowded around the door.
Janine felt a little helpless and sighed to herself. "Cpixin, all of you." It wouldn't be right to leave Maisy standing outside.
Steven and Charles exchanged a glance and then looked at Skylar.
Just when they thought they could have a nice family gathering, Maisy had to show 1. up.
