Chapter 1204
Ungrateful b*stard?
Aleigha had gotten used to this title.
Her face was covered with a layer of chilling light, and her eyes were fixed on the snake, Perla.
"Think you got a tough spine up now, don't you?" Perla's heart trembled under Aleigha's gaze.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
She immediately came back to her senses and picked up the chopsticks in her hands, ready to hit Aleigha.
"This is the Gardner family. You can leave after having fed yourself up. I don't quite think we can find anything to accommodate you properly."
Charlotte could not bear to see someone treating Aleigha rudely, so she said in a tone of dissatisfaction.
"If I'm not mistaken, you are already married to another family and this is your brother's house, which makes you an outsider."
"What right do you have to be driving me away?"
After she blurted this out brazenly, not even Charlotte, but also Dustin burst out into fury.
Holding the crutch next to the seat, he shouted, "You rude vixen, how dare you?
"Throw her out!"
Charlotte's face was livid with rage.
Perla knew that she had said something wrong. She tried to cover it up and brush it away with an awkwardly forced smile, "Mr. Gardner, sorry for what I've said." "I'm from the country so I'm not quite familiar with the manners you have in the city."
"Pardon me, will you? I'm truly sorry."
Perla smacked herself on the lips as she spoke. She had never lowered her head to anyone in the village.
If it weren't for the fact that she wanted to rely on the Gardner family in the future, she wouldn't be so humble.
The day she became rich enough, everyone in the here would be on their knees, begging for her mercy.
The more she thought about it, the harder the slaps landed on her face.
The other Gardners did not know what kind of person she was, but Aleigha did, better than anyone.
The only reason she was doing this in front of them now was to win their pity so as to get back at them later in the future.
"You can leave now. If it's because of the food you didn't finish that you are still sticking around, I'll have someone pack them up for you."
"My uncle has passed away, and I have nothing to do with you."
"By the way, take your lazy and scoundrel of a daughter with you."
Aleigha glanced at Samantha, her eyes filled with disgust.
Irritation burned fiercely inside Perla's heart but she could also guess that Samantha must have caused quite some trouble around the Gardner house. She rolled her eyes, got up, and walked to Samantha, pulling her up from the chair before she could understand what was going on.
She lifted her foot and kicked her right in the calf.
At the same time, she shrieked in a sharp voice, "You piece of useless crap, apologize!"
"I sent you here to live a good and proper life with this grand family!"
"And what did you do? Going around out there, doing the same disgusting thing you did back in the country! Kneel and apologize to them!"
Everything happened so fast that none could've seen it coming.
Seeing this, Laura was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped to the floor.
Aleigha knew, once more, that she could not keep these two vicious snakes around her.
It was not because she could not cope with them but because they would constantly lurk in the dark, launching a nasty attack at any time.
She was not worried about herself but rather about Charlotte and Laura.
"Get out. I'll have someone drop you off at the station. I don't ever wanna see you again."
Aleigha's attitude was firm, and she looked at the two people sharply.
Perla was furious and looked at Aleigha. If they were in the village, she would definitely tear off this girl's mouth today.
"Mom, let's go. We are not welcome here." Samantha knew how the people in the Gardner family were.
They would all listen to what Aleigha had decided.
If they still insisted on staying, the only thing befalling them soon would be humiliation.
In fact, in the past few days, Samantha had seen through many things.
"Go? Why? After you dumb shit of a father died, what do you expect us to live on?"
"You want me to leave after I finally made my way up here?"
Perla was already bewildered by her fury, not minding her language at all.
And her such little manifestation reassured the Gardner family that she was not to be kept around.
"Get them away, now!" Since Lainey was not in this house, Marcos's anger had decreased by quite a bit.
If it were in the past, the two of them would've been thrown out into some unknown gutter already.
"I'm not leaving! And ain't nobody's getting me out of here today!"
Having heard Marcos's words, Perla knew the ultimate situation called for an ultimate solution.
Playing rogue.
"What are you all waiting for? Throw them all out." When the servant saw Perla's posture, none of them dare to go forward.
Marcos got angry and got up to point at Perla and shouted angrily.
Samantha felt an inexplicable pulse of shamelessness surging up from the bottom of her heart.
Back in the days when she was in the village, she couldn't care less about how Perla behaved.
Yet now that she'd been able to see the broader world, she felt utterly humiliated by what Perla did.
She stood up and walked out.
Perla did not have the time to catch her, and was directly carried out of the Gardner house by the four servants.
Even after the door was locked, they could still hear her cursing and shouting.
"Aleigha, how have you gotten through all these years?" Laura's eyes were brimming with tears.
She suddenly recollected the indifference in her eyes when she met Aleigha for the first time.
The corners of Aleigha's lips curled into a bitter smile.
"But they did take a toll on my mom, since I wasn't around the house and was always at school."
It was hard to imagine how much Miranda had had to suffer.
Charlotte's eyes couldn't help but get red again. "Poor Aleigha, I... how you have suffered!"
"And how Miranda must have been tormented by creatures like that!"
Charlotte knew very well that if it weren't for the Gardner family, Miranda never had to suffer in the first place.
Aleigha knew that her mother had two properties. One was given to her by the Gardner family, and the other was unknown to others. Lainey must have been thinking about it at that time.
After dinner, Aleigha went back to her room and contacted Lennon.
Lennon had tried his best to help her to deal with the police. If things could work out smoothly, Lainey wasdikely to spend the rest of her life behind bars. én.swnovels.net
Yet things don't really tend to go smoothly, do they, now?
On Saturday night, Lainey suddenly returned to the Gardner family.
The Gardners, who were gathered around the dinner table, were astounded.
Emilia saw Lainey come in and burst into tears. She got up and ran to Lainey's arms and cried loudly.
Aleigha frowned slightly. She was a little surprised, but she didn't expect it to be so fast.
Lainey had been tortured for nearly a week. In less than a week, she had aged more than ten years.
Her hair, which was black, was now almost gray. One could easily mistake her for an old lady.
Being able to regain her freedom didn't quite cheer her up due to the fact that she had to trade in the love of her life for it.
As soon as she entered the door, Lennon sent Aleigha a message.
Aleigha understood that Lucian, the director of the Oasis General Hospital, took the fall for Lainey as a scapegoat.
Bravo, just bravo.
Aleigha even began to admire Lainey's fierceness and ruthlessness.
"Why are you so surprised to see me back? You all want me to die, but I just won't!"
Lainey held Emilia in her arms and looked at the Gardner family with extremely vicious eyes. She wouldn't hand it in to fate and she was pulling the whole Gardner family down.
This was a sheer twisted and crooked miracle.
Charlotte began to doubt whether there was something wrong with her eyes. She rubbed them and made sure that it was true, and sighed desperately.
Laura shivered and subconsciously leaned towards Marcos.
