To Be Yours Again by Taylor

Chapter 1335 Gilbert and Marigold (10)

’Marigold!" Paul bellowed angrily. "Didn't you desperately want to be the distinguished young lady of an affluent family before? Now, you could no longer care less because of Gilbert. Is that it?"

Before Marigold met Gilbert, what she wanted the most was to gain the recognition of every single one of the Wagners and be acknowledged as the eldest daughter of the Wagner family.

However, things were different now. After Gilbert came into her life, everything she'd feverishly chased after in the past lost its meaning and value. Right now, Paul found this change hard to accept.

’He's not the cause, Paul. I've merely changed my perspective," Marigold said with a bitter smile. She no longer needed affirmation from the

Wagners. Before Paul could speak, she continued, "I used to hope for the approval of the other members of the family. I cared so much that I ended up driving myself into a corner. I tried hard to prove myself just like you. But in the end, what did I gain?"

Aftercareful consideration, she realized she hadn't gained anything over the years. Before her father died, he never looked at her with a hint of recognition or fondness. After his death, things weren't much better, as no one else in the family acknowledged her status.

She didn't suffer much at the hands of the other Wagners simply because Paul took control of the family. He was her half-brother and had a pretty good relationship with her. Because of that, the other Wagners refrained from picking on her so as not to cross Paul.
