His Domineering Lover

The audience looked askance at the couple with fear, but nobody dared to interfere. Lainey was dragged back to the Gardner's. Emilia followed behind, sobbing.

Aleigha left with Charlotte. On the way home, Charlotte tried to soothe Aleigha.

However, Aleigha felt a sense of relief rather than any other emotions.

"I'm afraid that Adrian will not let it go at that since he feels duped."

Aleigha knew the dispositions of Adrian.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

This man would not give up so easily, and he would try to find some trouble with Aleigha.

This thought pained Aleigha. Her company was at a starting stage, and she was afraid that Adrian would find fault with their future business cooperation.

Aleigha had counted on his cooperation to make a profit, so the confrontation tonight seemed unwise for her.

"Aleigha, I like Freddie, to be honest." Charlotte did like Freddie.

He was innocent and handsome, but more importantly, his family background was powerful enough to protect Aleigha.

"Freddie? He's good, but I'm still too young to think about my marriage," Aleigha knew that Charlotte meant well.

If she turned to Freddie now, things would become delicate; what was more, she didn't love him, and the expediency would result in torture for both of them.

The Gardner villa was ablaze with lights, and there were utter dreary cries and screams.

The heart-rending cries could be heard from a distance. When Aleigha went in, the smell of blood in the air made her frown.

"Ouch, don't kill her." Charlotte rushed in at the smell of blood.

The scene in the room could be described as horrible.

Lainey was covered by blood, and there were her hairs all over the floor. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuedly to Marcos. Her body shivered. Marcos held a baseball bat with bloodstains, and his eyes were crimson red.

Emilia curled up in a corner, blood streaming down her two legs.

Is this savage?

No, Aleigha didn't think so. In her last life, Marcos hanged Aleigha behind the beam and beat her with a baseball bat. To make things ridiculous, such a punishment resulted from some clothes, Aleigha took away without asking for permission from Emilia.

The scene in front of Aleigha right now was nothing compared with what she had suffered from her last life.

The bloodshed, tears, and pains Aleigha once experienced were more horrible than this.

"Marcos, stop now. She may have an abortion now," Looking the blood under Emilia, Charlotte felt it insufferable.

"Abortion? Good for her and the bastard! Get lost from the Gardner family when she is done." Marcos' rage was beyond the example to scared Lainey and Emilia to death.

"Marcos, please, have some mercy on Emilia. I will do whatever you ask me to do."

Lainey was still begging for mercy, her forehead bleeding for kowtow and her face covered with blood.

"Didn't you threaten me? Didn't you have nothing to fear? What do you mean now? Beg me? You've deceived me for more than 10 years, and I've raised a bastard for years. What a laughing stock I become in the city! And you killed Miranda. You're a viper!"

Aleigha couldn't help suppressing her jeer at Marcos, who was also one of the murderers killing her mother, but he was passing the buck to Lainey right now.

"Marcos, it's my fault! It is all my fault, but I love you! I do. I didn't know things would turn out like this. Marcos, forgive me, and I will never do anything stupid again. I will listen to you. I will never say a word about your affairs even if I die. I swear."

Sneering, Marcos beat with the bat in his hand, and Lainey rolled over the ground after a gutwrenching scream.

Charlotte couldn't stand it anymore. She called an ambulance and sent Emilia to the hospital. Out of her hatred for Lainey, she had no intention to interfere with Marcos' violence.

Aleigha retreated to the study and got in her hands those stuff Marcos once checked, thinking that they might help someday.

She would like to ask Lennon about the dirty trick in it later.

The news with exaggerated titles narrated what happened between the Xiao family and the Gardner family last night, and the part about

Marcos was scandalous with all his romantic affairs included. The Gardner family was notorious now.

Dustin had shut himself up in his room for a few days. The servants would send him food on time. Outside the Gardner family's villa, there were countless reporters wandering every day, hoping to get some follow-ups.

On Wednesday, the wind vane about Aleigha changed drastically.

The praise on her turned to be the sarcasm of a family feud, more dramatic than those plots in soap operas. There were some facts but more bullshits, such as abortion and being a mistress.

Aleigha was clear that someone aimed to ruin her with the public voice.

Emilia was grounded in her room after being discharged from the hospital, and her child was tough enough to survive. However, her

communication with the outsidet

world was cut off, as all her means of communication were confiscated. Worse than Emilia, Lainey was

imprisoned in a basement, so it was impossible for her to stir up trouble.

Now, there were only two suspects on the list, either Aubrie or Kendal.

Although Aubrie didn't like Aleigha, she couldn't condescend to this dirty trick. Besides, the engagement between Adrian and Aleigha was invalid now, and Aubrie should be busy winning Adrian's favor. As for Kendal, she was not a good match for Aubrie to compete for Adrian. However, it should please her to hit Aleigha when the Gardner family was down and notorious. Kendal would feel more than glad to see Aleigha suffer a blow or lose everything.

However, the world was unpredictable.

Kendal's trick was full of loopholes. And those presses who had sense enough wouldn't mess up with the Gardner family at such a sensitive time.

A lean camel was bigger than a horse, and the Gardner family was still influential even in notoriety. Lainey and Emilia couldn't speak for the whole Gardner family.

Thinking that Aleigha would be defeated completely this time, Kendal went to Adrian's company with joy.

She had waited long enough before this approach to Adrian. She missed Adrian, even in her dream. As Adrian annulled his engagement with Aleigha, Kendal saw her chance coming.
