His Domineering Lover

After the kidnapping, Aleigha had a few peaceful days.

Dustin didn't do anything to Lainey and her daughter, at least not in front of Aleigha.

The mother and daughter had restrained their resentment toward Aleigha but it was still palpable.

For the sake of Dustin, they were ostensibly nice to her.

Aleigha checked online and found that her college acceptance letter had been signed for.

She'd lost the opportunity to go to college because of Emilia in her last life.

Lack of college education had made Adrian dismiss her as a vulgar bumpkin.

She wouldn't let it happen again.

Now that she had gained a foothold in the Gardner family, she had plenty of time to consider what to do next.

She spent lots of time in the garden reading and having tea.

It was a bright day and Aleigha was sitting on the grass in the garden, holding a book in her hand.

She really relished time like this.

"You know what, you should be thankful that the Gardner family is wealthy enough to afford a lady of leisure."

Emilia came to her and said tartly.

Aleigha was used to her acrimony and didn't feel angry at all.

"What brought you here?"

Aleigha smiled sweetly, reaching out to grasp Emilia's hand.

Although apparently Emilia wanted to fling her hand off, she controlled herself and sat down with her.

"We should spend more time together," Aleigha said.

The innocence on Aleigha's face made Emilia very uncomfortable.

Aleigha behaved so naturally that it seemed they were intimate sisters.

"I heard you are admitted to a college. What is it?"

Aleigha thoughtfully chose the subject.

Emilia stilled for a second and withdrew her hand from Aleigha's hands uneasily.

"It's a very ordinary college. I'm going to study abroad anyway."

Emilia's nonchalant tone only made her suspicious.

She had spent so much of her energy and time manipulating and calculating that her school performance had been a mess.

Studying abroad wouldn't change the fact that she had no more knowledge than a pig.

"I'm admitted to a college too, but I haven't received my acceptance letter."

If she remembered correctly, her acceptance letter was in Emilia's hands right now and Emilia would maneuver to replace her and go to her college. At the mention of the acceptance letter, Emilia looked more uncomfortable.

"Maybe it gets detained on the way."

She explained in a not convincing way.

Aleigha agreed to her but coldness flickered in her eyes.

A few minutes later, Emilia left.

She sent for the driver and left the house, leaving only Aleigha and some servants at home.

Aleigha later sneaked into Emilia's room without being noticed.

She rummaged through her table and soon found her acceptance letter.

She stared at it for a few minutes but put it down at last.

Getting ahead of herself was not a wise choice.

She must bide her time.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

After leaving Emilia's bedroom, Aleigha headed to the monitoring room on the first floor.

Only servants would come here occasionally to do cleaning.

She checked the surveillance records carefully, especially the period during which she'd been kidnapped.

And sure enough, on the day she'd been abducted, Emilia had been snapped signing for her acceptance letter.

After leaving the monitoring room, Aleigha chatted casually with some servants.

They told her that Emilia hadn't passed the college entrance examination.

What would happen next was expectable: Emilia would plead

Dustin was a little pissed off and sent a servant to check on her.

When the servant entered her room and saw her sobbing on her bed, she came back and told Dustin about it.

"What's wrong with her?"

Dustin frowned, his face darkened.

"She just doesn't want to see us. She can never learn to be polite."

"I'll go and see what's going on. Maybe she's not feeling well."

Emilia said to placate her father.

Dustin didn't say a word but nodded in agreement.

Marcos watched her trotting upstairs and felt less angry.

If only Emilia is a boy, he thought.

He had been longing for a son for a long time.

Emilia pushed open the door and metAleigha's watery eyes.

"Aleigha, what's the matter?"

Emilia acted like a caring sister.

Aleigha wondered why such a talented actor wasn't in the show biz.

"Emilia, I..."

Aleigha kept crying, her voice breaking.

"What's the matter?" Emilia asked again.
