Lily was speechless.It was natural for Lily, since even Sabrina, Ruth, and Yvonne had been stunned by Aino’s rudeness and bossiness.The moment they walked past the threshold of the door, Sabrina, Ruth, and Yvonne had told Aino, “Little girl, if a fierce lady comes out later, you should…”“I will hide behind all of you,” Aino said obediently.“Yes, that’s right. Little kids shouldn’t participate in adult matters, alright!” Ruth told Aino.Aino nodded. “I understand.”As they walked, the little thing had been an incredibly obedient little girl.Before the door opened, the little girl had still been behind them. In the blink of an eye, she suddenly rushed in front of the three of them.She even immediately scolded the woman and called her a bad lady.Gosh!She was even fiercer than the little shrew, Ruth! She was even more explosive than the little firecracker, Yvonne.“Aino!” Sabrina scolded.“Mom, don’t interfere!” Aino had her hands on her hips, and one leg was crooked
This time, the little girl even dared to beat up an adult, and was even issuing orders.More importantly, why were her two friends listening to that girl?Gosh!At that moment, Sabrina was dumbfounded.On the floor, with the four women rolling around, it was definitely Lily who was on the losing end.She never expected that she would be hit by a six-year-old girl. Right after her head was ringing and spinning from hitting the ground, her nostrils suddenly had fingers stuffed into them.It was really painful.Extremely so.It hurt so much that Lily started to wail like a lamb. “Baa, baa.”She was just about to raise her hands and beat up that little girl, but her hands were pressed down by two women.The two women even used their feet, stepping on her hands with one foot each.In all of Europe, and even in the whole world, she had walked around doing whatever she pleased even in bloody bars like the one in Europe. Yet, here, in a place she called her own home, she was being p
Everyone stopped.When Sabrina looked back, an unshaven Alex, with an incredibly sunken expression, was standing thereGosh!It had just been half a month! How did Alex become that way?He was always well-dressed, well-mannered, and calm. No one could ever guess what was on his mind. He always looked peaceful on the surface, but he was actually extremely capable.But what about now? He looked like a sloppy and unkempt man.Even though he looked like that, his voice was still cold enough to make everyone shudder.It was as if they had walked into a freezer.The three of them who were beating up Lily immediately stopped in fright.However, Aino immediately saw that her father was behind Uncle Alex.She was incredibly happy, and gave Lily’s nostrils one last forceful tug.Lily’s nostrils had been pulled by as much as five centimeters before they rebounded back.“Ah… You despicable child!” Lily cried out in agony.Aino immediately ran to her father and climbed up onto him.
They looked like trumpets. Her nostrils were so large they could be used as funnels. On her swollen face, she was incredibly ugly. She really looked like a pig. Gods! There were also her bleeding lips. And her tongue. Alex had never looked at her in this state before! Even if it was not Alex and someone else, they would have probably kicked her away in disdain as well. No wonder those cursed women were laughing.“Ah…” Lily let out an incredibly anguished cry from upstairs. On the other side, Sabrina, Yvonne, Ruth and Aino looked at Alex innocently.“Mr Poole, I’m sorry, today, Aino…” Sabrina glanced at Aino.Aino immediately said, “Who asked that thief to call me a despicable brat! She even said that Aunt Jane is dead! Who is she? Why is she in Aunt Jane’s home? Why did she run upstairs? Quickly call the police to catch her, she’s a thief!”Sabrina said, “My friends said that Aino was in trouble, so…”Facing the silent Alex, Sabrina stopped explaining. He liked the silence an
Where was Jane? Alex was speechless. He ended the call before answering Sabrina. Sabrina lashed out. “Hello! Hello! You jerk! I always thought you were a good man, a prudent…”Even though she knew he had already hung up the phone, Sabrina still continued shouting at him from her end. Sebastian took the phone from her. “Give him time to sober up. I’ll ask him again after he’s calmed down.” Sabrina sighed. “Well, that’s all we can do.” With that, the group of them entered the car and drove away from Alex’s summer house. Alex stood on the balcony and watched as they left. Leaving the balcony, he went to Lily Parker’s room.Lily never thought Alex would come in, so she had not bothered to lock the door. At the sight of him entering her room, her face flushed red. But even if she was blushing, it was not noticeable at all. Her face was now the ugly dark maroon of a piece of pig’s liver, as a result of the beating she had suffered under the hands of Aino, Ruth, and Yvonne. Lily imm
Alex switched to another venue, and ordered three bottles of sprites at one go. There was no one else in the spacious private room except himself. Just like that, he unhappily downed glass after glass. His vision was a blur. His mind was heavy, but his feet felt light, unable to support his weight. In his mind, the memories of the life he shared with Jane kept replaying like the reel of a movie.In his dreams, he still saw the scenes of his shared life with Jane. She was a woman of few words. When he remained quiet, she would never disturb him. She was also very attentive. Seeing him come home alone, tired and weary, she would immediately rush to him and help him take off his trench coat, then with a hand on his shoulder, help him sit down on the bench in the doorway. He did not have to do anything.She would personally help him remove his shoes, and slip into a pair of slippers. He did not even have to wash his hands, all he had to do was sit quietly in the kitchen, and she wo
Of course he would choose the wife. Any man with an ounce of conscience would know this. So, was he wrong in choosing Lily? He never said he would choose Jane! Right from the first day, he just saved her because he pitied her, pitied her for almost being beaten to death, and that was why he had saved her. He never loved her. The one he loved and missed with all his heart was always Lily. The little swan that he watched grew up. But why was he suffering so much? Why was he in so much pain! He downed another glass of wine. Suddenly, he retched and vomited.“Sir, Sir!” The manager held onto Alex’s arm. Alex had already lost consciousness. The manager hurried Alex to the hospital. The doctors put him on a drip, and because there was no one else to care for him, the manager had no choice but to stay beside him through the night.The next morning, Alex’s phone rang. It was a call from Lily.The manager answered. “Who is this?” “Who the hell are you! Every friend of Alex’s knows
His features were sharp and defined, beneath the warm contours of his face lay an ice-cold man. And he was a very capable man, claiming his throne as the top dog of Kidon City. Lily Parker would never hand over such an excellent man to another woman! With the help of two caretakers, they helped Alex into the car and Lily drove him directly back to the summer house. Together with the help of the servants, Lily supported Alex into the house and onto his bed. Only then, did she look at the man she brought home. She said in a pitiful tone, as if she felt bad for herself. “You can only see how nice I am now! When you’re drunk and unconscious, I am the woman who is beside you! It’s me, do you know that! Where is Jane? Why isn’t she here to take care of you! Get up, turn over, I’ll take off your shoes for you!” Lily flipped Alex over with rough, big, movements. Alex slept sweetly and soundly, but he kept muttering, “Jane…Jane…Jane, where are you? What will you do when you run out of mon
