Aleigha's eyes were moist, but she looked at Charlotte with a smile. "Grandaunt, you know what? It's really hard being alive."
"Poor dear. I won't let you suffer any more."
Charlotte treated Aleigha like her own child. Her body was racked with sobs.
"Aleigha, you..." Dustin sighed. His guilt for her had reached its peak at this moment.
He had never thought that she would try to kill herself.
Lainey and Emilia stood at the door of the ward, silently watching.
"Mom, I think she did it on purpose! She's acting..." Emilia muttered.
Lainey's sharp eyes interrupted her.
"Aleigha, you can't be so impulsive. Are you trying to make us feel guilty? Can't you just give your sister what she wants?
"Your aunt is pregnant, and she can't get too emotional. You're just as impossible as your mother."
When Marcos thought of that weak woman, he got kind of annoyed.
"Shut up! One more word and you get out of here." Dustin couldn't help but yell at Marcos.
Marcos didn't want to be here at all. He directly left with Lainey and Emilia.
Aleigha watched them leave, and the disappointment had turned into anger. She would definitely make Marcos regret it!
She didn't mind him humiliating or bullying her, but she wouldn't let him speak ill of her mother!
Her mother was the only one who loved her.
"See? This is what happens when you spoil your son. Aleigha almost died, and he doesn't care about it at all!
"What's worse, he said something like that. Shouldn't you do something? Are you really going to marry Emilia to Adrian for a child whose gender you don't know?
"Brother, I can't believe you haven't come to your senses yet.
"Well, well, well. Since none of you cares about her, I will! I'm gonna take her to the United States, and she'll no longer have anything to do with the Gardner family!"
"Charlotte, enough!" Dustin's face was flushed with shame, and he couldn't refute.
Charlotte snorted and turned to look at Aleigha.
"Aleigha, let's go to the United States when you feel better. This place doesn't deserve you."
"Grandaunt, I..."
Aleigha did not want to leave. She had not avenged herself yet. How could she leave?
"If you wanna stay here, I'll buy you a new house. We can live there together."
Charlotte did not want to stay in the Gardner Residence. She felt sick when she saw Emilia and Lainey.
"Charlotte, Aleigha is my granddaughter. I know what to do. Stay out of this."
Obviously, Dustin did not want Charlotte to get involved.
"You're unbelievable." Charlotte was so angry that she glared at Dustin.
"What can I do? I don't have much time left. Do you want me to see the Gardner family fall apart?" Dustin sighed. This was the first time Aleigha had seen him so helpless.
"Grandpa, Grandaunt, please stop quarreling. Just let Adrian marry my sister. After all, he's not right for me."
Even if he wasn't right for her, she wouldn't let Emilia be Mrs. Xiao!
She was really looking forward to what would happen when the knew Lainey was carrying a girl.
