Second Genius To Loser! (2)

"Boom..Crash.."

Hearing this the stepmother's maid Midori strolled into Irene's room without the slight formality of knocking.

"Irene! Why are you so clumsy! That vase costs more than the dress you wore for your wedding!!"

Midori: In short, it's very very expensive!!!

Midori wasn't very tall, being the same height as Irene, she is 25 this year, small and delicate-featured. Pretty in a cute way. She doesn't stop the party when she walks in, but you'd like to get to know her when she smiles.

Irene couldn't help but chuckle, an ordinary maid could disrespect her, you can imagine how they dealt with her back in the Shu Mansion.

Irene stared straight into Midori's eyes without a word, seeing Midori was about to get furious again, she spoke:

"Bring me a white dress, simple but classy and also get breakfast for me."

Listening to such orders, Midori couldn't help but laugh:

"Oh my! My Lady Irene wants to dress and eat delicious food now! Do you expect me to trouble the maids of Laurent mansion at near lunchtime to make breakfast for you?"

"What's so funny? Can't I have my breakfast made as I want as the new wife of the Master of this house?" Irene tilted her head and asked blankly.

"Are you ignoring my orders, Midori Ryuu?" Irene took a step toward Midori and asked.

Midori didn't care about Irene's unusual behaviour today, for her, watching Irene grow into a spineless and introverted person she didn't even imagine her trying to order others.

Feeling that she was being too nice to this stupid girl, Midori clapped:

"It's not me who isn't listening to your orders. Madam told me to just keep an eye on you! I am a maid of the Shu family and you aren't from the Shu family anymore, it was my madam's charity to get you married to the Laurent family."

Midori even raised her chin high, back in the Shu family whenever she intimidated Irene, she would quietly take the insult like a dumb plank making everyone laugh at her and today will be exactly the same.

---------

Irene yet took a step forward with all her might she pushed Midori, and the arrogant but shocked Midori collapsed straight onto the floor.

She slightly smiled and said: "That's right, I'm not Irene Shu but Irene Laurent now. If I complain to my husband, do you believe he will take my side or a little maid like you?"

Irene's face still maintained the look of a weak and scared lamb but the words she spoke were contrary to her expression.

Midori hastily bit her lips closing her mouth before she spoke any more obscenities, although she could bully Irene because of her weak personality, she wasn't brave enough to hit her owner and now this woman was nevertheless the wife of the 3rd Richest man alive!

Midori had no choice but to behave politely: "Lady Irene, don't get angry. I will quickly bring you breakfast and clothes."

Midori hurriedly stood up and was about to go out when Irene carelessly said behind her: "Tell Ayano to stop by me."

Midori: "Yes, lady Irene."

Watching Midori go out, Irene strolled towards the floor to ceiling long mirror in front of her, a face with no notable features was reflected, her pale white complexion and dull brown hair being more noticeable.

Irene unexpectedly smiled, 6 months had passed by.. she still needed to adapt to this new world.

From the business woman Irene with the net worth of 100 billion of the 2040s, she was somehow in the body of foolish and worthless Irene Shu of 2022.

This world is extremely similar to her own world's history.

The Laurent family..Yvonna Laurent, 39 years old, single with no children..the richest woman alive in 2040 with a net worth of 300 trillion dollars.

This woman was also her rival and also the reason she kept quiet and married into the Laurent Mansion.

Irene's one goal: Get richer than Yvonna Laurent this time!

--------

A tall girl nearly 6'2 walked in with western facial features, this was Ayano Rylenar. Noticing Irene staring into the mirror, she asked: "Does Lady want to apply makeup today?"

"No need, I want to meet my stepchildren first." Irene quickly removed the creepy smile on her face and glanced behind to instruct Ayano.

Ayano was a little surprised: "Lady, it's your first day in the Laurent Family, I think you should impress the master instead.."

Irene didn't speak just stared at Ayano, she was used to giving orders as a Secretary. After a while of eye confrontation, Ayano didn't get furious like Midori but gave in and stepped out.

Irene picked up the scissors from the dressing table in front of the mirror, the dull brown hair was shortened to right above her shoulders, her large forehead was simply covered by blunt bangs created by Irene giving her more of an honest and vulnerable look, clenching the sliced hair, Irene murmured to herself:

"This is my opportunity, go bad or go home."

Irene wasn't somebody who had revolutionary ideas or someone from a high-level tech world, her world was just 20 years ahead and her only wish was to get richer.

She knew this wasn't a novel or a game that she could simply wake up in a different place and win the world, it didn't work that way in the real world.

She needs to work harder or work smarter.

--------

After eating the sandwich and milk tea sent by Midori, Irene said: "No need to prepare gifts or so, it's just a meeting."

Midori and Ayano glanced at each other, as if their eyes could say a million words wondering if they heard right, Irene didn't want to impress the step-kids..?

Midori who always spoke her mind in front of Irene said: "Really? They are your new step-children, what if they complain and you get divorced..Haha..cough.."

Ayano silently poked Midori's waist to stop her from laughing, between them, Ayano was of course the clever one.

Listening to Midori's question, Irene's eyes turned into crescent moons, and she chuckled: "Isn't it a mother's job to supervise her children, why do I need to act as a guest and give them gifts, don't worry too much I'll do just fine."

Under Irene's pleasant smile a deep scheme was being created.
