Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 45

"By anyone else," Amelia was referring to Rita. Rita knew Amelia was blaming her for being unhelpful.

Alas! It seemed that the good impression that she had given Amelia before had been completely destroyed today. But Rita was not discouraged.

She walked forward and said to Amelia, "Grandma, although the Wilson family can't help, I didn't say I wouldn't help in person. As a member of this family, how can I just sit by and do nothing? Naturally I will contribute."

"You?" Amelia was surprised. Everyone else was also very confused.

Amelia turned to her. "How are you going to help?"

"I also signed up for the design contest," Rita replied.

Grace burst out laughing. "Rita, are you kidding me? You expect to win the design contest and help this family just relying on your lousy drawing skill? You think you are as good as my daughter?"

"You never learned designing. You participating in a design contest will only embarrass yourself!" Mason snorted and also began to snipe at Rita. "Rita, it's OK that you won't help me, But at least don't make fun of me, OK?"

The couple seized the opportunity to demean Rita. The thing was, Rita was indeed bad at drawing. Even her parents didn't believe she could win the contest.

"Mason, I'm also a Brown. There are two Browns among the contestants now. I just want to increase the chance that our family will take the first prize."

Rita ignored the sarcasm in his tone and smiled. But her words once again made Mason and his wife laugh.

"Rita, you are funny!" Grace laughed so hard her tears came out. Just now she had thought that Rita was smart enough to refuse to help the Brown family, but now it seemed that she was just an idiot.

'No. More like she has brain-damage.'

Charlotte had been praised by her tutor for her design talent, and many professionals had said that she was to win this year's design award with her expertise. So, there was no doubt she would take the first place.

Rita, on the other hand ... She was not even professionally trained and wanted to increase the chance of winning? It was a delusion.

'Huh! What a joke!'

"Rita, it will be good enough as long as you don't bring shame to this family at the design competition!" Grace wiped her tears, giving Rita a contemptuous glance.

Looking at Rita, Amelia sighed sullenly. She thought Rita had changed, but it seemed she was wrong.

'Alas! That girl is hopeless!'

Not only did she refuse to help her own family, but she also claimed to take part in the design competition. If Liam weren't there, Amelia would have ignored Rita.

She forced a smile. "All right. Let's call it a day. I am tired. I'm going to rest."

With Amelia's departure, Mason and Grace finally stopped accusing Rita. Seeing this, Charlotte, who had fun watching the scene, hurried to Amelia.

When she walked past Rita, she gave a triumphant smile.

'Huh! Rita, I thought you had become smart. It turns out that you are still no match for me! You're still a fool just like before.'
