His Domineering Lover

"Miss Gardner, the President invited you to dinner tonight."

Hearing this, Aleigha's mood suddenly became gloomy. "Tell him I don't have time."

"He did say that if you do not go, the cooperation will be postponed."

"Again? Threatening me with the cooperation? D*mn!"

He had to comply with all Adrian's requests now that he's got something she wanted.

Aleigha was annoyed, but she couldn't do anything about it.

"Alright, I'll go."

Sitting in the car, Aleigha scrolled down on her phone. Today's headline of the city was quite splendid.

She asked the chauffeur to send her to a place two blocks away from the school. She didn't want Adrian to know that she was going to school here.

As soon as he entered the school gate, someone rushed over. Aleigha's face was calm and she ignored him.

However, the Gardner family didn't give him a call.

It was easy to imagine how angry Marcos would be at this time.

She did not wanna try her luck, which was destined to be not something pleasant at the moment.

"Aleigha," Aleigha followed the sound and found that it was Lennon.

Lennon seemed to have something urgent, so he stepped forward and pulled Aleigha to leave.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

This was unlike Lennon, who had always been steady and composed.

"Laura has had an early delivery. I've already sent her to the hospital."

Upon hearing this, Aleigha also quickened her pace.

The two of them arrived at the hospital. By the time they arrived, Laura had already been sent to the delivery room. Lennon's two men had already briefed them on the situation. Only then did Aleigha let out a sigh of relief.

At about 10 o'clock in the morning, Laura gave birth to a boy. Although she had an early delivery, the boy was in rather good health.

Aleigha was also relieved.

Lennon hired a whole crew of staff to take care of

Laura at the hospital.

Aleigha felt that this time she owed Lennon yet another favor. If there was a chance, she must pay it back.

In the afternoon, Marcos's call came, and Aleigha had to go back to the Gardner family.

As soon as she entered the room, she felt an inexplicable sense of oppression.

The air seemed to be filled with the smell of blood.

"Aleigha, where did you go yesterday?" As soon as she entered the door, Marcos asked her gloomily.

"I went back to school early, what's up?" Aleigha put on an innocent look as if she didn't know anything.

She blinked innocently at Marcos.

Marcos's eyes were bloodshot as he turned to look at the person on the ground.

Even though Aleigha had seen how Marcos treated Emilia and her mother, the current scene in front of her still made her feel a little uncomfortable.

On the ground, Emilia lay motionlessly in a pool of blood. Her bright red gown was torn into a mess.

Many parts of her body were exposed, and blood was seeping out from the heart-stopping wounds.

There were several bruises on her pale face, and there was blood on the corner of her mouth.

Lainey, kneeling beside Emilia, eyes resembling two bottomless abysses, looked at the woman lying on the ground, doing nothing.

Aleigha at once felt that the blood all over her body was boiling.

"You don't know anything?" Marcos looked at Aleigha inquiringly.

Aleigha blinked her eyes, and her red lips opened slightly. She looked shocked, and the tears seemed to flow out of her eyes.

"Dad, I don't know anything. What happened?"Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Marcos took a deep breath and threw over a pile of newspapers.

Aleigha picked up the newspaper under her feet and pretended to read it carefully. She covered her mouth in horror and did not know what to say.

"We were gonna force Adrian to admit the child in her belly is his but now this tramp got herself into someone else's bed!"

"And now the whole d*mn city knows about it! How are we supposed to even see Adrian?"

Aleigha looked at Emilia

sympathetically, as if she had no et

idea about this. The shock shee managed to put on her face was as if revealed by her true

emotions.

She herself, from the bottom of her heart, felt it was such a waste of her talent that she didn't choose to become an actress.

Now that she was doing it herself, she realized how awesome it felt to put up a pretentious act.

In the past, it was she who was schemed against all the time, but now, it was Emilia. She rather enjoyed watching the show. "Dad, what did Adrian say?"

"What else do you expect the man to say?" Marcos thought of the tone of Adrian's words this morning and the anger in his heart rose again.

He picked up the ashtray in front of him and threw it at Lainey.

With a grunt, Lainey fell to the ground with her head in her hands.

"Dad, calm down. You are gonna kill her!" Aleigha rushed to Lainey and wanted to check on her.

Lainey covered her head, letting the blood flow out. She gritted her teeth tightly but did not say a word for mercy.

She hated Marcos's ruthlessness and cruelty. They had been husband and wife for so many years, yet he had treated her like this.

"Auntie, are you okay?" Aleigha asked as if caringly.

When Lainey heard Aleigha's voice, she almost bit her lips, but she held back.

At this time, if she had a conflict with Aleigha, things would only end up even worse for her.

"She might as well be dead to save me from these ridicules!" There was no pity in Marcos's eyes as he looked at Lainey.

The look in his eyes was as if he was looking at his rival.

"Marcos, she didn't mean to. She's your flesh and blood after all. Spare her!"

Lainey was lying on the ground, and her voice was extremely hoarse. She must have cried herself hoarse before.

"Dad, calm down. The last thing we need is a body in this house," Aleigha urged.

She wanted this to happen to Lainey and Emilia, but would she stop at that only?

Of course, she wouldn't.

She hasn't made them pay for the other things they had done, the disfiguring, taking her loved one from her, and the blood on their hands...

So, no, she wouldn't.

Since Lainey was still here, insisting

on not leaving, it meant that she still

got some tricks hidden up her

sleeve. Since that was the case, Aleigha might as well take her time with it.

When she was at her wit's end, she would pull in the net and catch the big fish.

As for Emilia, this was just the beginning. There was much more to come other than just simple and boring humiliation.

She couldn't forget the burning pain of the raging fire.

Marcos's anger gradually subsided, and he ordered people to send Emilia and her mother to the hospital.

When everything was over, there was only Aleigha left at home.

While no one else was around, she made a trip to Marcos's study.

It really made her discover a lot of useful things.

Dustin was not in Country S, thus putting all the responsibility on Marcos's shoulders. Aleigha skimmed through some of the documents for a few investments.

All backed by the Empire Group.

It was only when she came out of the Gardner family's home that she remembered her date with Adrian.

And when she checked on her cell phone, she found that he had called her a dozen times.

She was too busy reading through the documents that she forgot about the date completely.

She called him back and, as expected, the voice that sounded on the other side of the line was rather irritated.

"You got half an hour to get your a*s here."

After hanging up the phone, Aleigha cursed in her heart and took a taxi to the mall.
