Domineering Lover novel Chapter 1142

The more lenient Aleigha appeared, the more guilty Dustin was.

He knew Aleigha was a good girl but had been indifferent to her all these years because of her mother.

He gradually realized that her mother had brought her up well.

On the contrary, Emilia was spoiled by her parents and become a brainless spendthrift.

"How could I forgive you after all that you've done?"

A shadow of sorrow flashed across Dustin's face before he held Aleigha's hand and left.

Emilia bit her lip and watched them with resentment.

"Emilia, get up."

Lainey walked to Emilia in a trance, trying to pull her up.

"Don't touch me! All you and father know is yourselves. You're so selfish!"

Emilia swung her hand off, crouching over the floor and crying.

Lainey was surprised. Her daughter on whom she had lavished all her attention and love thought she was selfish.

All the hardships that she had gone through for her were meaningless in her eyes?

Lainey was so aggrieved that she started to sob sadly.

Being scolded by his father, Marcos felt very frustrated.

But instead of self- reflection, he blamed it all on Aleigha.

"Enough. You're so embarrassing." Marcos yelled at his wife and daughter.

"It's all your fault. You're a loser. If you were more able and resolute, we wouldn't have wind up like this."

Lainey growled.

She had been unsatisfied with Marcos for many years.

"I said enough!"

Marcos went ballistic and slapped Lainey on her face in a fit of anger.

Lainey felt dizzy and her cheek was tingling with numbness.

"Are you crazy? Why did you hit mom?" Emilia jumped up and cuddled Lainey, glaring at Marcos.

Lainey shouldn't have called him a loser. She knew he hated nothing more than that.

"I've been good enough to you. All you have is given by me."

"How dare you talk to me like that? If you say that again, Lainey, you'll no longer be a part of the Gardner family."

Marcos's voice was vehement.

Lainey didn't retort and cried silently.

Emilia cried with her mother.

Hatred was full to the brim of her heart. Her family had been perfect until Aleigha appeared.

Aleigha followed Dustin to his study. To her surprise, Dustin took out an extremely exquisite box from a drawer.

"Take a look."

Aleigha took the box with curiosity. It felt cool, only the size of a palm, but very delicate.
