Shut Up
Lily didn't have to say it word for word.
Julie was smart enough to pick up what she meant.
For a while, Julie remained quiet, thinking about what Lily pointed out.
In fact, although Maria had been living with them for some time now, she still didn't approve of her as a
member of their family.
Julie then thought of her husband, Bill.
Knowing that he bought the extravagant food especially for her, he would certainly be displeased once
he found out that his wife gave it to Maria instead.
Seeing that Julie was in deep thought, Lily put out a straight face, but she was laughing in her heart.
Then, Lily said in an insinuating tone, "Mrs.Jenkins, I'll prepare the dishes first and bring it to the dining
table."
As for who would end up eating the dinner she prepared, Lily didn't care.
She already sowed the seed of discord, and that was enough for her.
After saying that, Lily went back to the kitchen, acting innocently.She was like a sapper who laid out a
mine and was just waiting for it to detonate.
"Maria..."
Eventually, Julie broke the silence.
She actually intended to ask Maria what she liked to eat for dinner, meaning that she decided to eat
what Lily would prepare.
Julie thought that girls at Maria's age would probably have no complaints if they could have
cheeseburger or pizza for dinner.
So, she planned to order a take-out for Maria.
If the girl was sensible enough, she should accept the arrangement and still be grateful.
"I actually have something to deal with tonight.So, I'll be having dinner outside."
If only Lily didn't butt in earlier, Maria would have already said this much earlier.
However, Julie was quite shocked.
Although she already guessed that Maria was going somewhere after seeing her in a dress, she was
still surprised when she actually heard her say it.
Julie wanted to ask her for more details, but Maria had already gone back to her room.
At the same time, it turned out that Lily also heard Maria say that she was going out.
Because of this, she quickly came up with an idea to make Maria's image bad again.
Hence, she went back to the living room and whispered in Julie's ear, "Mrs.Jenkins, it seems that even
though Miss Maria is just new to Sheffield, she already has a rich nightlife.She always wears plain
shirts and jeans, but this is my first time seeing her in a dress.Hmm...It's getting dark now.Is she
planning to go to some party wearing that? Does she have new friends? I bet they are men who are
going to be bad influences to her."
Julie's heart skipped a beat when she heard that.She thought that it wasn't impossible.
Maria was stuck in a very poor town before.
Now that she somehow gained freedom and came to this metropolis, she might want to try things that
she never did before.
However, she was already engaged to Anthony on behalf of Vivian.
Of course, she couldn't be seen having fun with random men.
Even if they were just friends, if this news reached the Wilsons, a misunderstanding would be
inevitable.
This might anger Anthony, and there would be no good way to explain it.
Moreover, if Maria was really having an affair with another man, then Julie had all the more reason to
stop it.
"Ma'am, although Miss Maria isn't your biological daughter, she is still part of your family now.If she
does something to put the Jenkins household in trouble, everyone will be affected.I'm sure you also
have the authority to discipline her."
Like a devil whispering in a mortal's ear, Lily continued to feed words in Julie's mind.She was
deliberately making it seem like Maria was only going out tonight to do something shameful.
At the same time, as if she was completely brainwashed, Julie nodded and thought of what to do.
"You are right.It's better to be safe than sorry..."
It was almost six o'clock in the evening when Julie stood outside Maria's bedroom.
Before she could knock on the door, Maria opened the door from inside.
She was still wearing the plain dress, and there was a small canvas bag on her shoulder.
In it were a few of her belongings such as her mobile phone and facial tissue.
Anthony said that he would be here at six o'clock to pick her up, so she was about to go out.
"Maria, you're not going anywhere tonight."
Julie's face was solemn and her tone was serious.She thought that this was such a serious matter, and
she couldn‘ let it happen under her watch.
Maria's brows slightly furrowed, thinking what Julie was talking about.
However, when her gaze went beyond Julie, she saw Lily snickering not too far from them.
Therefore, she instantly understood what was happening.
"You don't know what you're talking about.Now, get out of my way."
Maria's voice sounded indifferent as usual, but the look in her eyes was rather fierce.
Julie was taken aback.
Not only did she find Maria's response to be unexpected, but she also didn't think that a beautiful girl
like her was capable of giving such a fierce look.She couldn't help but subconsciously take a step back.
But after a moment, Julie regained her composure and quickly re-established her authority as Maria's
adoptive mother.
"Maria! Even though you are just adopted, your status is now very different from before.You should
learn to pay attention to your words and deeds.Have you forgotten that you are engaged to Anthony? If
you are only going to some meaningless social activities, then I forbid you to—"
Before Julie could finish her words, Maria got impatient and interrupted her.
"Enough.Will you shut up? You're making a fool of yourself."
As if the temperature suddenly dropped by a few degrees, the expression on Maria's face became
more domineering.
There was no sign of timidity or backing down.Her last sentence was uttered in a low voice, but it was
clear enough for Julie to hear it.
"You...Did you just tell me to shut up? How dare you?"
Julie was dumfounded that she thought she only misheard it.But no.She couldn't be mistaken.It turned
out that her adopted daughter was rude enough to answer back at her in a disrespectful way.
