A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 189

Mary covered her face, knelt down on the ground and cried. Then she kowtowed to Scott and said, "I beg you, please let Betty go. It's all my fault. I did a wrong thing. We gave birth to our daughters on the same day. When I saw that you were so gentle to your child, I wanted to exchange them. In this way, my daughter could live a wealthy and happy life. It has nothing to do with Betty. Please don't take Betty's happiness away. She has been with you for more than 20 years..."

"Mary, you are a mother and I am also a mother. You brought my daughter to the Mu family to suffer, and you helped Betty hurt my daughter again and again. You wanted to kill her. How can you be so ruthless?" Scott accused Mary excitedly.

"I'm sorry.. I just wanted Betty to live a good life."

"You wanted your daughter to live a good life, so you sacrificed my daughter!" Scott's face darkened and she snapped at Mary.

Hearing Scott's words, Mary didn't know what to say and looked at me.

"Ashley, it's all my fault. Please forgive me, okay? I beg you. I've raised you for so many years..."

"Raise me? Mary, you don't like me all the time. After I married Edward, you treated me as a tool to make money. In your heart, you only want your daughter to get happiness, and you destroyed my happiness with Betty again and again. Is this the way you raised me?"

"You clearly know that Betty is your daughter. For her, you made me embarrassed, made me hated by the Xis, and made me be driven out of the Xis. Then you worried that I would know my identity and the love between me and Edward would destroy Betty's happiness, so you wanted to kill me. This is the way you raised me. You hurt me for your own daughter."

"I'm so sorry... If you hate me or want to beat me, I won't resist. Betty is innocent. Please." Mary couldn't say a word to refute me. She knelt on the floor, kept kowtowing to me and begging me to let Betty go.

"Innocent? What Betty did is innocent? She killed my child, wanted to kill me several times, and wanted to ruin my reputation. Are you saying that Betty who did all these things is innocent?" I narrowed my eyes and looked at Mary coldly.

"Can you let Betty go for I've raised you so many years?" Mary said to me with tears in her eyes.

"Sorry, you hurt me again and again, and I had no feelings for you a long time ago. Betty has been scheming since she was a child. Do you want to let her out and hurt others? Do you think it's good for her? You're accessory to her crimes! It's already good for her to send her to prison." I said to Mary impatiently.

"Take her out and don't let her get close to here in the future!" Scott walked to me, held my hand, and ordered the stunned doctor behind us.

When Mary was taken away, she looked at me with a sad and determined look. Being looked at by her, I felt uncomfortable.

"What's wrong? Did Mary's words make you sad? If you don't like to see her, I will send her to a distant place. I will send Betty to another prison and let her spend the rest of her life in prison." Scott held my hand and said to me.

I came to sense and looked at Scott. I shook my head gently and said, "There is no need. Anyway, Betty can't be saved."

"Ashley, go home and live with us."

Scott touched my hair and said with tender eyes.

"Okay." I wanted to go back to the Fang family, so I didn't refuse.

"When your father is discharged from the hospital, we will pray at the tombs of your grandfather. He had always doted on you the most. You have to tell him that you have come back to our family and let him rest in peace." Scott said to me with tears in her eyes.

"Okay."

"And my father, your grandpa. Forget it... He is still abroad and hasn't come back for more than 20 years. He is probably still angry with me."

After Scott said this, she shook her head at me sadly.

"Is grandpa angry with you?" I hesitated for a moment, then looked at Scott and said.

I didn't know much about Scott's father. I only knew that she was the daughter of a rich family. No one knew her background. "Your grandpa was angry because I married your father that year. He didn't even come to see me when I was pregnant. It has been a long time. I will take you to find him some other day. He will be very happy to see you."

Scott seemed to be hiding something about her father.

Didn't grandpa allow Scott to marry Leonard? Leonard started from scratch. Maybe grandpa thought that Leonard couldn't make Scott live a happy life, so he had been angry with Scott for a long time.

Thinking of this, I became more and more curious about my grandpa whom I had never met.

"When Betty was three years old, your grandpa sent a gift to her. That gift should belong to you. When I go back, I will find it for you."

"Mom, you don't have to do that. When dad is better, let's go to find grandpa together. I think that he will definitely forgive you."

"That's right. Your grandpa is very stubborn. At such an old age, he still thinks that he is the senior officer who commands millions of soldiers. But he has retired for so many years."

Senior officer...

Was my grandpa a soldier?

I looked at Scott in surprise. Scott came close to me and whispered, "The Ye Family is a senior cadre family. Your uncles are soldiers and their positions are above the major general. Your grandpa used to be the commander of the Iron-blood battalion ." Scott's background was so powerful... I was shocked.

I looked at Scott unbelievably.

"I didn't tell Betty about these things before. Because your grandpa is of low- key style. Few people in Beijing know my background. Ashley, you are the first girl in our Ye Family. Your grandpa will definitely like you."
