Chapter 205
“Sandy, shut up!” Liam couldn’t stand it anymore and scolded his daughter angrily.
“Why are you shouting at me? I was telling the truth. You married a crazy woman to harm our family. Do you still think you’re in the right? I have a mother,” Sandy retorted.
“Who wants her to be my mother? I feel disgusted every day when I look at her. Isn’t she tired of pretending to love me and my brother so much?”
“If she loves my brother, why does she still want her child? I’m helping her fulfill her wish by aborting her child,” Sandy said righteously. She did not feel she had done anything wrong.
When Rowena heard her words, she was so angry that she completely broke down. She never dreamed Sandy would hate her so much when she loved Sandy like her daughter. She rushed over crazily and slapped Sandy twice, scolding, “You ingrate! You killed my child! I’ll beat you to death.”
“Oh, you dare to hit me? Who do you think you are? Shameless bitch, mistress, slut,” Sandy spat back, even more aggressive. She grabbed Rowena’s hair and slapped her a few times.
Rowena was dizzy from the slaps. She still couldn’t believe that Sandy would treat her like this. She also scratched Sandy’s face.
The two women fought. Rowena, having suffered a miscarriage, was weak and old. Sandy, however, was powerful and young. In a few moments, Sandy pinned Rowena to the floor and continued to fight.
Rowena was beaten to the point where she could not retaliate. She subconsciously looked at Elvira, only to see her sitting calmly on the sofa, watching. There was mockery, laughter, and schadenfreude in Elvira’s eyes. However, Elvira didn’t have the slightest intention of feeling sorry or wanting to help.
Rowena felt her heart turn cold. Liam, troubled by the scene, immediately rushed over and hugged his daughter to stop her from hitting Rowena again. He shouted at a servant for help. Only then did the servant react and quickly pull Sandy away. Sandy, still feeling unsatisfied, raised her leg and kicked Rowena. Her scolding continued, vicious and unrelenting.
“You bitch! If you hadn’t interfered in my mother’s marriage back then, my mother wouldn’t have died of depression. I hate you so much, so how could I possibly acknowledge you as my mother?”
“Get out of my house now! Get lost!” Sandy shouted excitedly. She used so much strength that two people couldn’t hold her back. It was clear how much hatred and dissatisfaction she harbored.
Rowena looked at the woman in front of her, who was scolding her with a ferocious expression. Her heart seemed to be bleeding. After more than ten years of companionship, she had treated Sandy as her own daughter, loving her more than Marcus. In the end, Sandy hated her. After knowing she was pregnant, Sandy had not hesitated to drug her to kill her child. Rowena felt as if her world had collapsed.
Elvira, having seen enough, got up and prepared to leave. She didn’t care what would happen to the Miles family and Rowena. Rowena, seeing Elvira about to leave, called out, “Elvira.”
Elvira stopped and turned, surprised. She smiled calmly, “Ms. Smart, let me remind you that we’ve already severed our mother-daughter relationship. Since I’ve already explained myself, please pretend you don’t know me in the future.”
Elvira said coldly and left quickly. Elvira’s departure left the Miles family in chaos. Rowena fainted from the stress. Liam quickly let go of Sandy to check on Rowena. Sandy only glanced at Rowena coldly, unconcerned about her danger; she couldn't wait for Rowena to die. Sandy snorted and swaggered upstairs.
Liam quickly called for the driver to help him carry Rowena to the hospital. On the way, before Rowena woke up, Liam received a call from Sandy. Having seen her disfigured face, she shouted into the phone, “Dad, go and divorce this old bitch now! Let me tell you, in the future, I won’t stay in this family if she’s here. If you still acknowledge Marcus and me, get this old woman out of my house.”
Rowena happened to wake up at this moment. When she heard Sandy’s words, she felt a mouthful of blood stuck in her chest, almost suffocating her. She snatched the phone away angrily and roared, “You ingrate, murderer! If anyone should get lost, it should be you. Liam and I are husband and wife. You’re the one who should get lost.”
Sandy laughed so hard tears fell from her eyes. “Hey, Rowena, you’re so stupid. You can ask my father now. If he has to choose one, will he choose you or us siblings? Aha.” Sandy laughed again and hung up.
When Rowena heard this, her heart turned cold. She looked at Liam nervously. “Liam, do… do you choose me or-”
“Rowena, I can’t choose. I want both of you,” Liam immediately interrupted, tightening his grip on her. Rowena looked at Liam, but he didn’t dare meet her eyes. She suddenly had an idea. If he had to choose, he might choose his children instead of her.
‘What about me?’ Rowena thought. Back then, she had chosen him without hesitation, abandoning her children to be with him after learning of his wife's death. She had looked after his children for all these years, but in the end, Sandy was not grateful, mocking and beating her, even killing her child.
Rowena’s expression was dark, her face pale. She stared at the man and felt suffocated. She spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted again. Liam panicked and hurriedly instructed the driver to drive faster.
Elvira returned to the company and threw herself into work. Rowena was no longer worth her time. She wanted to save time for those she loved and those who loved her.
However, Elvira seemed to have thought of something. She picked up her phone and was about to call Liam again. Liam was guarding the unconscious Rowena. When he saw Elvira calling, he picked up without even looking at who it was.
“Who is that? What’s the matter?” Liam’s tone was unpleasant.
“Mr. Miles, I’m Elvira. I’m calling to warn you that although I’ve cut ties with Rowena, I won’t sit back and do nothing if you dare to bully her, be irresponsible to her, and want to dump her for your children. So, treat Rowena well in the future. Otherwise, the Miles family will go bankrupt,” said Elvira.
The current Elvira was no longer the pitiful little girl from before. The words she said now were filled with dominance, and she was no longer afraid of many things.
