Chapter 228 Gail is the Third PartyOutside the house, the three members of Effy’s family looked at the closed door without speaking.
After a while, Effy spoke and said to Luke and the others, “Let’s go, don’t come here again, every time
you come, you will be slapped in the face, who cares.”
Gail’s attitude has already shown that he doesn’t want to get too close to them.
Every time they come, they just bring shame on themselves.
Luke and Abner stared at the door of Gail’s house thoughtfully, wondering what they were thinking…
The following day, Aletta went to the Hill Group as usual.
At noon, when Lotus came to find Aletta to have dinner together, Aletta suddenly received a strange
call.
Looking at the unfamiliar number, Aletta hesitated for a few seconds before picking up.
“Hello. Who is this.”
Hearing Aletta’s voice, the person on the other end of the phone spoke cautiously, “It’s me, Luke,
Aletta, I heard you’re back, can you come and meet us? We’re in a restaurant near Hill Group now.”
Aletta was slightly surprised when she heard this voice.
After many years, she never expected that Luke and his wife would meet her.
She was not as happy as she imagined.
I still remember that when she divorced Jason a few years ago and was evicted by the Rogers Family,
she went back to see her adoptive parents.But at that time, the words of her adoptive parents sprinkled another layer of salt on her heart that was
already riddled with holes.
*The daughter we have raised for others for so many years, now that you have found your own flesh
and blood, don’t come back again. Gail will be unhappy when she finds out…
From then on, she knew that her fate with the Effy’s family was over.
It’s just fine, why did they suddenly find Luke?
Aletta pursed her lips, and it took a long time before she said. “Send me the address.”
After hanging up the phone. Aletta turned around and said to Lotus. “I have something to go out for a
while, I don’t need to come back for lunch, you can go eat first.”
Lotus looked at her feet with some concern.
Aletta saw her concern, smiled, and said, “My feet are fine, let’s go eat first.”
After bidding farewell to Lotus, Aletta left the company soon, and went to the appointment according to
the address sent by Luke.
The restaurant Luke and Abner found was small, with an average environment, but it was still clean.
As soon as Aletta entered, she saw the two of them.
Seeing each other again, although the mood was quite complicated, she still took the initiative to greet
them. “Long time no see.”
Abner and Luke were surprised when they heard Aletta’s voice, and stared at her in disbelief.Because they were raised by them, in my impression, Aletta always wears ordinary cheap clothes,
good–looking but simple and elegant.
The current Aletta has changed a lot, she has a noble temperament, and she wears brand names that
they don’t know. This kind of her makes people feel an indescribable sense of distance…
Finally, Abner nodded, “Sit down first, haven’t you eaten yet? What do you want to eat?”
He raised his voice and called the shop owner to come and order.
“Noodles are fine.”
Aletta finished ordering by herself, then raised her head and asked Luke and Abner who were sitting
opposite her, “How about you?”
The Effy’s family replied quickly, “Just be the same as you.”
Aletta nodded and handed the menu to the boss, “Then three bowls of noodles.”
The boss nodded, and quickly prepared and sent it up.
Aletta gave them the sterilized chopsticks, then lowered her head and ate the noodles slowly, without
any intention of speaking first.
The Effy’s family couple sitting opposite her didn’t have much appetite, so they ate a few bites casually,
and then Luke took the initiative to ask, ” Aletta, have you been … how have you been these few
years?”
An ordinary sentence, I can’t tell whether it is caring or what.
Aletta was taken aback for a moment before replying, “It’s pretty good.”Luke smiled, “Well, I can tell from your clothes… I heard that you are very capable now, you are a
doctor, and you have started your own company.”
Aletta pursed her lips, paused while eating, and gave a faint “um“.
Although they didn’t say anything, both of them felt Aletta’s indifference and alienation.
Abner frowned slightly, and simply got to the point, “We are looking for you today because we have
something to talk to you about.”
Aletta thought, it was finally time to start.
She asked aloud, “What’s the matter? Tell me.”
Luke looked at Abner and motioned him to speak.
Abner said, “We heard from Gail that you have a successful career now, but I heard that you seem to
be entangled with the president of Hill Group…”
Hearing this, Aletta’s eyes suddenly turned cold.
Abner didn’t notice it, and continued, “We have no other intentions, just want to ask you to help Gail
and Mr. Hill, she likes Mr. Hill very much, and has deep affection for him, you are Rogers Family Lady
now, you can get what you want, there should be many rich men lined up for you to choose.”
“Yeah, Aletta, Gail has nothing now. Only the person she likes is left, you … you can’t be so
domineering, you have to leave it to her.”
Luke also joined in the persuasion.
Aletta thought it was a little ridiculous.Before coming to the appointment, she wondered whether the two of them were still thinking about their
family relationship back then, and wanted to see herself.
novelbinNow I’m finally sure, I’m thinking too much.
She shouldn’t have had illusions about them long ago.
Aletta suddenly lost her appetite.
Gail told you all these words?”
Luke thought her attitude was loose, nodded immediately, and continued, ” Gail has not been in a good
state recently, Aletta, we have raised you for so many years, we don’t ask you to return us anything,
but Gail is our biological daughter. You can’t ruin Gail’s happiness!” –
Aletta’s complexion finally darkened after Luke’s words.
She looked at Luke, and asked in a cold voice, “What do you mean I ruin Gail’s happiness?”
“Isn’t it? If it weren’t for you, Gail would be married to Mr. Hill by now.”
After Luke finished speaking, he saw Aletta’s face turned cold.
“Oh, you can really talk!”
Aletta stared straight at the two of them, her aura still unabated, as if there was a seemingly
nonexistent coercion, the two were taken aback for a moment.
Feeling that Aletta’s aura was a little scary, the couple subconsciously trembled.
Luke wanted to say something, but Abner next to him pulled her.Aletta, whose aura was completely different from the past, and felt a little frightened.
A sarcasm flashed in Aletta’s eyes, and the last trace of patience with the two of them had also been
exhausted.
With a cold tone, she said to the two, “I want you to clarify one thing… First of all, Gail has occupied my
identity for so many years and destroyed my marriage. She is the third party.”
“Secondly, Jason doesn’t like her. It’s their business. Don’t talk about me. Besides, everything I have
today is all my own hard work. Rogers Family didn’t give me anything or help.”
“And what did Gail lose? You keep saying that she is your biological daughter, but she is still the
daughter of the Rogers Family couple, and she still sits firmly as the eldest lady of the Rogers Family!
And I have never been recognized by them Pass!”
“As for the return you mentioned… I think you two may have a bad memory, so I need to remind you
that after I was brought back to the Rogers Family, my grandparents had already given you a sum of
money as those The cost of Effy’s family’s kindness in nurturing me, so don’t use these things to kidnap
me!”
