Chapter 320 - 326 Rivalry Between Love Rivals (2)
"I know that." Aiden nodded and smiled with relief.
Mason stopped talking and just bent his eyes slightly.
Aiden glanced at him and turned to enter the ward.
Zuri was still lying on the bed crying, her voice hoarse. Seeing him come in, she quickly called out, "Dad."
"Don’t call me Dad." Aiden felt a headache just from seeing her and said coldly, "I don’t have a daughter as heartless as you. Things have come to this, you need to handle them yourself. Once you leave the hospital, don’t even think about coming back to the Ginger Family. I’ve arranged an apartment for you outside, and you can live there with Aunt Lee until you give birth and recover. As for the child..."
"The child’s is Rowanda’s, Dad, believe me, it’s really his." Zuri hurriedly cried and begged.
"It doesn’t matter whose it is." Aiden said in a deep voice, "The child is innocent, and I won’t take my anger out on the child. Once the child is born, if Rowanda won’t take care of it, I will. The rest we can discuss once you’re out of prison."
"Dad," Zuri desperately fell from the bed and knelt at his feet, crying, "Are you really so heartless? How can you be so cruel and let me go to prison? I’m begging you, please don’t do this. I’ve called you Dad for more than ten years, help me, please help me."
"Little Lee." Aiden frowned, glancing at the caregiver beside him, and said sternly, "Help her back onto the bed, what kind of a scene is this crying and wailing!"
"Yes, sir." The caregiver aunt quickly stepped forward.
Aiden looked at her tear-streaked face, sighed helplessly, and said, "The investigators will come this afternoon, just cooperate and give your testimony..."
"Dad!"
"Do you understand?!"
Aiden shouted sternly. Zuri shivered in fear and responded with a sob.
"Then that’s it for now." Aiden turned to leave and said to the waiting Mason, "Let’s go."
Mason nodded and followed closely.
Inside the ward—
Zuri listened to their footsteps fading away, leaning hopelessly against the headboard.
Suddenly everything was gone.
Even Rowanda had left her abruptly.
What was she supposed to do?
Oh God, who could help her, what should she do?
She had never felt so panicked and helpless before.
What should she do?
Zuri thought in utter disarray, feeling her head about to explode.
No, she had to calm down.
Yes.
She needed to calm down and think carefully.
She still had a year, a long time, enough to do many things.
How could she be chased out so easily?
She had to return to the Ginger Family.
Aiden was angry now, but with time, even the greatest anger would dissipate.
And Charlotte Chester, so greedy and snobbish, needing both to play cards and to maintain her looks, how could she do without money?
She needed her!
Charlotte still needed her.
She didn’t like Mia Ginger in the first place, so she would forgive her more easily.
And Bob Ginger.
His heart was so soft, she should start with him, he would definitely forgive her.
And Rowanda Peterson.
She was still carrying his child, wasn’t she?
He wasn’t a heartless person, begging him more would surely work.
To say the least, she still had her status as the Ginger Family’s adopted daughter, which had been over ten years, Aiden couldn’t erase it even if he wanted to.
If they were heartless, she couldn’t be blamed for being ruthless.
A bare-footed person does not fear someone wearing shoes.
If pushed to the limit, she would make the family’s scandals public knowledge.
That’s right!
She wanted revenge, revenge!
Zuri thought painfully, and Marianne Jackson’s words suddenly appeared in her mind.
