Domineering Lover novel Chapter 1195

Aleigha carefully read the casebook twice, and she felt like she had a knife stuck in her windpipe, suffocating her.

"Aleigha, who is this Miranda?"

Lennon was very curious.

"My mother, Marcos's original wife."

During the whole process, while Aleigha was reading through the casebook, not a single flash of surging emotions crossed her face.

Lennon was startled. He had never thought that this would be the answer.

"My mother was murdered by Lainey and her daughter. A tragic woman who was swept out of the house by them and was alone with her child."

"Even when she was reduced to that miserable state, they still wouldn't let her go. What do you think I should do?"

Aleigha slightly raised her eyebrows and looked at Lennon. Her eyes were cold, and she gave off a kind of indifferent and gloomy aura.

"Aleigha, there are some things that might have a better solution." Lennon knew of family struggles.

He had known too much of it ever since he was a mere child, which gave him a clearer picture of it all.

He knew the cruelty in it.

Therefore, although not knowing how many grudges Aleigha held within her, he still hoped she could cope with it in a rather calm way.

"Better solutions? Like what? Bringing them to justice? And that's gonna bring my mother back to life?"

"How dare you tell me there are better solutions when you haven't the faintest idea what I'd been through?"

"If I had to, I could kill both of them a hundred times and it still wouldn't be enough for the hatred in my heart to be erased."

Lennon's heart was filled with shock. He had never known what Aleigha had experienced that made her how she was.

"Aleigha, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that," he said, a little regretful that he had said that before he knew everything.

"It doesn't matter. I'll be on my way." Aleigha was in a bad mood, although she had already known the truth.

But it still made her very uncomfortable.

She went downstairs to check out her own company. Everything was ready, and it was time for her to talk to Adrian about what would happen next.

Before she arrived at the company, she received a call from Charlotte. She could tell that Charlotte, who had always doted on her, was not really in the best of moods right now.

When she got back home, she heard crying, and blames shot out about her.

Aleigha's eyes were cold as she walked in.

As soon as she came in, Samantha shouted, "Aleigha, what's wrong with you?"

Aleigha's face was full of innocence. "Didn't I ask the salesclerk to tell you that I had something urgent to do?"

"How dare you talk like that? You told me to try the clothes on and you bailed, do you know how embarrassing it was?" Samantha was still complaining.

After hearing what she said, the people standing aside were a bit unpleased.

Charlotte's face sank at once, while Lainey sat aside with a gloating face.

"Oh, so that's what you are crying and fussing about? But you didn't tell me that when we first went out. You said that you wanted to go to the mall so I presumed you'd have the money, there's

nothing wrong with that, right?"

There was a hint of a smile on Aleigha's white face. No one would have thought that she was doing it on purpose, not after seeing the innocence on her face.

"I thought you were a great, wealthy, and generous family. But now that after what I've seen, you are nothing but a bunch of stingy wannabes." Samantha said, her face exactly the same as her snobbish mother.

Without great ambition, she only cared about what she could and couldn't get at present, not thinking about what trouble her words could cause her in the slightest.

"Samantha, after all, Aleigha is your cousin. We all know your family's had it quite tragic and Aleigha was kind enough to bring you back here."

"Now why does it sound like you are not quite satisfied with it? Aleigha is a student herself."

"All the wealth of the Gardner family was earned through hard work. Wanting to buy some clothes at a place that extravagant..."

'Well, that's quite..."

Lainey was fanning the flames by the side, glancing at Dustin's reaction from time to time.
