His Domineering Lover

Even Marcos felt a bit disgusted. What Emilia did was a disgrace to the family.

At this time, Charlotte glanced at everyone with a calm face and then asked Emilia, "Who else knows about this?"

Emilia wiped away her tears, her entire body trembling. She didn't dare to tell them anything more.

Seeing this, Marcos felt that the matter was more serious than he had imagined.

This daughter who he had placed great expectations on actually made such a huge mistake. He rushed to Emilia, slapping her in the face. "Say it! You shameless brat! What the hell is wrong with you? Who's the man you slept with?"

The corner of Emilia's mouth was broken and blood ran from it.

"Are you crazy? She is your daughter. How can you be so hard on her?" Lainey rushed to them like crazy, having Emilia under her wing.

All Emilia could do was cry.

"It's all because of you. She humiliated the whole

family, and you're still defending her."

For the sake of Lainey's child, Marcos stopped hitting Emilia. Obviously, he was furious.

Aleigha, who had been silently watching the show, gave a faint smile. She remembered Marcos had beat the crap out of her in her last life.

She couldn't forget the pain. It was like hell.

She didn't do anything wrong. She got bullied just because she was not favored.

In her last life, Marcos believed in whatever Emilia said and treated her ruthlessly like a stranger.

Therefore, no matter how pitiful Emilia looked, she wouldn't sympathize with her.

She used to be more miserable. She had been covered in bruises and abused mercilessly by her family.

Dignity had been a luxury for her.

"Emilia, the game started."

Dustin was boiling with rage. "I told you Lainey wouldn't be a good mother. I told you Emilia was a jinx and she would ruin the family! You believe me now?"

"Grandpa, l-I just went into the wrong room." Emilia tried to save her face and dignity.

Dustin didn't buy it, though. Charlotte was even more straightforward. "Then why did you go to

Adrian's room? Don't tell me you tried to send him late-night snacks."

Aleigha wanted to gave her a thumbs-up. That was a direct hit.

"Aunt, I know you don't like me. But trust me, I've been teaching Emilia to be a good girl.

"No one wanted this to happen. As an elder, aren't you supposed to be comforting Emilia, not denigrating her?

"Is cursing her gonna change anything?"

Though

Lainey was filled with an ungovernable rage, she needed to find a way to fix this.

"That b*tch is to blame! She set me up..."

Emilia pointed at Aleigha while crying. Her eyes were full of resentment.

"Grandpa, I didn't. Emilia asked if I saw Mr. Xiao, and I said yes. That was all.

"I didn't know anything about her plan. Emilia, you can't blame me for what happened to you, can you?"

Aleigha started crying, too. If being a crybaby would get her what she wanted, she'd do it.

She was no longer the old Aleigha.

To be honest, she felt really good now.

Her tears made Charlotte's heart ache.

"Darling, it's not your fault. We won't blame you. Emilia didn't behave herself. I wonder what her mother taught her."

"That's enough. Shut up! Stop blaming anyone!" Dustin roared angrily, and the room instantly quieted down.

This incident could damage the reputation of the family he cared most about. He wanted nothing but keeping it a secret.

Aleigha was very curious about what Dustin would do. If it were her, she would have be beaten to death before anyone would defend her.

Charlotte might have been on her side, but the others would definitely not have let her go. The last thing the Gardener family wanted was a scandal. The point was, the scandal would have caused the Xiao family to call off the engagement.

Well, now that the scandal was about Emilia, this was gonna be interesting.

The room was silent.

Emilia didn't even dare to breathe loudly. It was the first time she had faced so much anger and criticism from her family.

And it was all because of that b*tch.

Aleigha ruined her life!

Being fiercely stared at by Emilia, Aleigha sneered inwardly and kept shivering in Charlotte's arms. "Crap! Crap!"

Dominic ran in with a flustered look on his face. When he saw everyone, he was a little shocked.

"What's the deal?" Marcos was still mad at Emilia. He didn't feel better when he saw Dominic.

"There are tons of reporters outside!" Dominic guessed that something terrible must have happened. When he saw everyone's face, he confirmed his suspicions.

"What did you you say? Reporters?" Marcos walked up to Dominic and grabbed him by the collar.

Dominic was so frightened that he couldn't even speak coherently. "I- I don't know. I- I just saw them..."

"Send them away!" The more Marcos thought about it, the angrier he was. Pushing away Dominic, he turned around and walked towards Emilia. Seeing Marcos coming over, Lainey hurriedly shielded Emilia behind her. She stared at Marcos and said, "Hit me if you have to, not my daughter!" Marcos's hand stopped in mid-air, and finally, he put it down. "How long are you gonna spoil her?"

"Mom, just let him hit me. I don't want to live anyway. Adrian's never gonna be with me. What's the point of living?"

Emilia wiped the tears on her face angrily. She pushed Lainey away ran to Aleigha like mad.

"Stop her, she's crazy!" Charlotte picked up the phone next to her while protecting Aleigha.

Marcos hurried to catch up with Emilia and stopped her in time.

"What are you doing?" Dustin was so angered that he was breathing heavily. He kept hitting Emilia with his cane.

Aleigha looked at it indifferently.

The bigger it got, the better off she'd be. It was way not enough. She had suffered more.

"Emilia, there's plenty more where that came from."
