Why me?

1342 Words
Lisa is a person who usually doesn't like dressing up, maybe because of her type of work, as a screenwriter, her life is still very simple. She is different from Natasha, Natasha is active in public and does not tolerate any compromise in dressing up. But Lisa did whatever was comfortable for her, whatever the price, as long as the clothes could cover her body. What kind of rules of hell will she learn later? Lisa thought about it, not knowing what would happen next. Still need to dress up more or less. Lisa's height is a little over 160 cm, which can only be considered average among girls, but if she stands next to Jackson who is 190 cm tall, she looks very petite. Of course, Lisa's skirt isn't too formal, it's still a simple and casual cotton skirt. Even so, she took off the canvas shoes she usually wore and wore a pair of shallow leather shoes with a slight wedge heel. However, her small face that had not been smeared with make-up, and the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose, still looked like a high school student. Claire and her daughter knew that he would be going out today, so they came down early and waited downstairs. It wasn't until Lisa came down from upstairs that Natasha laughed, but it was very loud. Lisa frowned slightly and ignored her. Instead, Natasha stood up and came to her, looked her up and down, then covered her mouth with her hand and smiled mockingly "Don't tell me you're planning on going out dressed like this." "Why?" “You are going to meet Jackson, the young master of the Morhington family, you are dressed like this, are you just trying to embarrass him?” Natasha obviously didn't know what Lisa was going to do today, and thought Lisa would go on a date with Jackson. Lisa didn't explain. Instead, she shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly and said "Regarding clothes, as long as they are adequate and look comfortable, I think wide clothes are better than clothes that emphasize cleavage. But I still thank you for your concern." "We are sisters, you don't need to be polite. In fact, you also know that I am saying this for your own good. If you get married in the future and divorce because of these trivial things, our whole family will feel embarrassed, don't you think? " Hearing this, Lisa thought "No wonder this Natasha really likes acting and is very good at acting. She really has the most basic qualities of an actor." This hypocritical woman always talks about this, and every word she says is for the sake of sister. Lisa couldn't be indifferent and deny the person's 'good intentions', so she suppressed the disgusting feeling that arose in her heart, regulated her emotions, then smiled and said "Actually, I also have this worry. I just think, it would be nice if he were the one to marry you. Too bad..." While the two of them were arguing openly and secretly, Bobby came and said respectfully "Miss, Mr. Jackson's car has arrived." "Okay, I understand, I'll be there soon." Lisa smiled faintly at Natasha, then said to Claire who was sitting aside and didn't say a word, "Auntie, I'll go first." "Okay, have fun." When Lisa came out of the house, she saw a large luxury car parked in front of her house, with the driver standing near the car. Seeing Lisa coming, the driver immediately opened the car door respectfully and said, "Miss Lisa, please come in." Lisa bent over and sat down. Then the driver also got into the car, Lisa asked, "Where are you taking me?" "Mr. Jackson ordered me to take you to the Morhington family's house." “The Morhington family home?” Lisa's eyes widened, she couldn't believe it, she was a little nervous and uneasy. She originally thought that Jackson would arrange for her to be in a quiet place to teach her etiquette and so on, but she never expected that she would go to the Morhingtons' house. She had heard that Jackson's grandparents and parents lived at the Morhingtons' house, and now she was going there... Just thinking about it made Lisa feel a little numb. But since she had already fallen into this hole, she had no choice but to explore it, where was there any chance for her to escape? The Morhington family's house is located at the foot of the mountain to the west of the city, occupying a very large area of land, not only is the main house spacious, there are two wing buildings on both sides of the main building. Behind it is a glass flower house that was done personally by the old lady of the Morhington family. Inside, there are many treasures collected from all over the world, rare and precious flower species. There is a large rose garden and a small lake with clear water at the back comparable to a professional outdoor swimming pool, as well as a tennis court and a mini golf course. With the mountains behind it, the air is fresh, warm in winter and cool in summer. As soon as the car arrived in front of the gate, the tall and elegant hollow black iron gate slowly opened. After passing through a two to three hundred meter wide road covered with trees, the car passed a beautifully designed fountain and finally stopped in front of the main house. The driver got out of the car and opened the door for her. "Miss Lisa, we have arrived." "Thank You." Lisa said as she got out of the car. There was an old man waiting at the door, wearing a black suit and dressed like a British royal housekeeper. When the old man saw her, he smiled slightly and said "Miss Lisa? I am the housekeeper here. My surname is Warren." Lisa nodded slightly, she showed the utmost respect to the housekeeper "Hello, Mr. Warren." “The old lady and Madam are already waiting. Please come with me.” Lisa took a deep breath and followed Warren who was walking in front of her. The main building is very large, the entrance hall alone feels spacious like a hotel lobby, two women are sitting on a European-style sofa. One of them was a silver-haired old woman, and the other was a graceful and noble middle-aged woman. Lisa could roughly guess their identities. They must be Jackson's grandmother and mother, right? “Old lady, madam, this is Miss Lisa.” Carrisa, who is almost eighty years old, still looks very energetic. She looked at Lisa then nodded in satisfaction and asked with a smile "Are you Lisa?" Even though Lisa looked nervous, she still respected her elders, "Yes, my name is Lisa, hello grandma." "Okay, okay, it's Jackson's mom." Lisa looked away, and also called Jackson's mother softly, "Hello, Auntie." Clarissa smiled and nodded "Sit down quickly." Lisa sat opposite Carrisa and Clarissa a little nervously, her legs together and her hands holding each other, she even lowered her head a little because she was nervous. Seeing Lisa's shy attitude, Carissa became even more satisfied. Clarissa saw Carrisa's thoughts and said with a smile "Mom, look, this girl is really good. She seems to be a well-behaved and sensible child." Carrisa answered lightly and asked, "I heard that you and Jackson met yesterday. How do you feel about Jackson?" How? This question is really scary... But Lisa didn't dare say anything bad about Jackson, so she said shyly, "He's pretty good." “Well, he has a slightly cold temper, but after you marry him, and you become his wife, he will be good to you.” Lisa originally thought that the marriage between the two families was just a matter of Jackson's own decision, but listening to the old lady's words, it seemed that the Morhington family had made this marriage decision? "Okay, grandma, can I ask you a question?" "What?" "Why me?"
