Chapter 3

Jump from the buildng

Ailina’s POV:

As I looked at Hallie’s smiling face, the memory of my past life came into my mind like as if someone was playing a movie in my head…

Flashback:

I came out of the elevator and pushed my wheelchair towards the CEO’s office.

Today is Darren’s birthday. I decided to give him a surprise and went to his company with his favorite pineapple cake in my hand.

I had personally made this cake for him, because he once said that loves the food I cook for him.

Usually, I don’t like to go out alone, since I can’t walk by myself. However, today I make an exception…

However, as soon as I arrived at the door of the bedroom, the faint voices of man and woman panting came inside the room…

From the crack of the door, I saw my stepsister Hallie and my fiancé Darren snuggling up on the office desk…

“Darren, you are so naughty. Aren’t you afraid that Ailina will find out about us?” Hallie said while panting…

“What’s there to be afraid of? She can’t even walk… how can she come here?” Darren said while thrusting in…

“What’s more, didn’t you come here to seduce me… why are you saying all this?”

“I am not… I am just here to give you a surprise… After all, today is your birthday…”

“Then, let me enjoy my gift…”

Darren said as he began to thrust harder…

Seeing this, I clenched my fists and pushed the door open angrily…

“What are you guys doing?”

Seemingly startled by my voice, the two people stopped moving and turned to look at me…

“Ailina, what are you doing here?” Darren asked as he pulled up his pants.

“If I don’t come here… how will I know that my fiancé and my half-sister were having an affair behind my back?” I said coldly.

I can’t believe that the man I loved for so many years, would cheat on me like this…

“Ailina… it’s not what you think…” Darren said, trying to hold my hand.

However, I pushed his hand away and slapped hard him on the face…

“Do you think I am a fool?” I snapped coldly…

“Sister… Sister… I am sorry, it’s all my fault. Don’t blame Darren for this. I know should not do this but I can’t control myself from falling in love with him… I am sorry sister…” Hallie walked up to me and said tearfully…

Seeing her like this I felt so disgusted that I wanted to slap her face hard… Unfortunately, I can’t stand up…

“Hallie, with your such a good acting skill, it’s not difficult for you to get an occur!” I said coldly.

“Ailina… who do you think you are? Do you think I really love you? Have you seen yourself in the mirror… Every time I looked at your haggard face and amputated leg… I felt disgusted…” Darren said.

Hearing his words, I felt like someone had stabbed a knife in my heart… it was so painful…

‘I lost my leg in order to save him… and now he is telling me that he felt disgusted…’

“Ha-haha…” I laughed mockingly…

I didn’t even remember how much I had given up for this man… However, not only did he cheat me with my half-sister, he even said such a hurtful word…

I really can’t believe that I had been in love with such a shameless man…

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

At that moment, Darren’s phone rang.

“Okay, I will there in a while!” he said to the other person on the phone and hung up.

“Darren, you still have lot of things to do. You go ahead! I will talk to my sister!” Hallie said softly.

“Huh!” Darren nodded and left the office.

However, as soon as he left, Hallie’s expression changed, and her face turned cold.

“Sister, it’s good that you already know everything! You know it’s so hard for me to pretend in front of you…” Her voice is soft and gentle.

I must admit that she is very good at hiding her emotions and disguising herself.

Suddenly, her lips turned into a sneer as she said, “Since you know this, then let me tell you another big secret!”

As she said, her eyes fell on my legs and she laughed… “Sister, do you want to know how you lost your leg?”

Hearing her words, my eyes widened in disbelief, and I had a bad feeling in my heart…

“Ha-haha… Yes, it’s me… I am the one who planned that accident…” She said while laughing…

“What… Are you surprised…?”

“Wait… I am sure you must be thinking why I want to harm Darren, right?” she asked.

I nodded.

“I never wanted to hurt him! I know as long as you are there, you will certainly go over to protect him… and you didn’t disappoint me sister.” Hallie said while laughing. She looked like a devil…

“However, to bad, you are quite lucky! The doctor said that your legs can be cured. However, it was my mother, who gave some money to the doctor and make your leg amputated.”

Hallie said as she laughed…

“Why? Why did you do this to me?” I asked. Even though she is my half-sister, I have never done anything to harm her….

“Why? Do you want to know… Let me tell you… Because I hate you… I hate you very much… I was missing Wilson first. Dad loves my mother, but your mother stepped in and became the legitimate wife of Dad. As for me and my mother, we can only hide in the dark…" Hallie said gritting her teeth.

“However, it’s not too late… I have giving you slow poison for so many years and your body is already becoming weaker and weaker every single passing day. You didn’t have much time left…”

Saying that Hallie laughed loudly…

“After you die, everything belongs to me… the villa, the company, Darren… Everything came back to it’s original owner…”

Hearing her words, I looked at her coldly and said, “Come to its original owner? Who are you deceiving… The villa belongs to my mother and the company belongs to my grandfather… If not for my mother, your father would have nothing… So, stop dreaming! You will never get anything!”

“Ailina don’t be stubborn. Even though you are about to die, but if you give your mother’s things, I can give you a antidote and keep you alive…” Hallie said condescendingly.

I looked at her coldly and said, “Hallie, let me tell you, this will never be going to happen…”

As I said, I pressed the button of my wheelchair, and it ran towards the floor-to-ceiling window at high speed…

Just like that, I jump off the building…

However, looking at Hallie’s pale face, I swear to myself that if I got another chance, I would make those people who hurt me pay thousands of times for what they had done to me…

Chapter 4

Fall down

Ailina’s POV:

Even though Hallie is also my father’s biological daughter, at that time I didn’t know that and thought that Hallie was Susan’s daughter.

Before that even though Susan and Hallie had been living in this family for so many years, Grandpa had never allowed her to marry my father.

But not long ago, Susan suddenly got pregnant, and she said that she had checked into the hospital and was carrying a grandson of the Wilson family in her belly.

Hearing that Dad begged Grandpa for a long time to let him marry Susan.

Grandpa also didn’t want to be the only grandson of the Wilson family to be an illegitimate child, so he agreed to it.

And if I am not wrong, today is the day when Grandpa agreed to let Susan marry my father.

However, what I didn’t know in my previous life was that Susan was not pregnant at all. Instead, she bribed the doctor and fooled the whole family to get married.

What’s more, she even blamed me for killing her so-called child.

The pain on my cheek after my father hit me and the disappointed look in Grandpa's eyes are still livid in my mind until now.

Thinking that I hooked my lips in a smile and walked towards the family of the three calmly.

‘From today onwards, I am going to change my life!’

“Ailina, here you are! Why didn’t you come back home last night? Do you know how worried I was? However, it’s good that you are safe!”

Susan stood up from the sofa, holding her bulging stomach, and walked towards me with a caring look on her face.

Seeing this, Dad also got up from the sofa and held Susan’s hand. Then, he looked at me and said coldly, “Ailina, how can you be like this? Do you know your Aunt is pregnant and it’s not good for her health to be worried about like this! Can’t you be a little more responsible and stop fooling around at night.”

“Sister, I know you don’t like me and my mother, but please don’t do things like this! The doctor said that the fetus is not stable and it’s not good for the mother to be worried like this.”

Hallie whispered in my father’s ears. I could tell that she did all this to provoke my father's anger.

And as expected, hearing her words, Dad became annoyed and said angrily, “Ailina, from today onward you are not allowed to go outside!”

Hearing the family drama in front of me, I felt disgusting.

“Oh, Aunt, thank you so much for worrying about me so much! However, don’t worry, I am not going anywhere anymore.” I said coldly and walked towards the stairs.

However, as I walked over, my lips curled up in a cold smile, and turned on the camera of my phone…

If I remember correctly, it is the time in my previous life, when Susan had deliberately fallen from the stairs and blamed me that I had pushed her and killing her baby…

However, in this life… things will go according to my plan.

“Ailina, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?” Susan's voice came from behind me.

From the camera of my phone, I can see Susan approaching me while holding her bulging stomach.

Hearing that I sneered and without even turning back I shook my head, “No need! I am not hungry! What’s more, Aunt you should rest more! Didn’t doctor said that your fetus is not stable! What if you fell from the stairs and kill the child!”

“Ailina, what are you talking about? Your Aunt is pregnant is with your brother! How can you curse her like that!” Dad said, patting the table.

However, I didn’t stop. Ignoring his words, I quietly walked upstairs.

‘Little brother?’

‘Or should I say a pillow?’

In my previous life, I later learned that Susan was not pregnant at all and to let my grandpa agree to her marriage she bribed the doctor in the hospital and planned all this.

However, I don’t know if my father knows about this or not!

After I walked upstairs, I stood at the corner adjusted my phone camera to a perfect angle, and turned on the video button…

Seeing this Susan reached out her hand to hold me, I took a step back and avoided her hand.

In her previous life, I had tried to hold her hand but because of my actions, the whole family thought that I was the one who pushed her.

“Ah…”

Susan screamed and rolled down the stairs.

Then, she gently reached out in her skirt and tore the packet of fake blood.

Just like that, the blood spilled between her legs, meandering on the floor.

“Susan, you are bleeding!” Dad hurriedly ran towards her.

Hallie cried beside her, “Mom, mom, how are you? Is my brother gone?”

Hearing Hallie’s words, Dad’s face turned pale.

I looked at the mother-daughter pair downstairs coldly and sneered.

Chapter 5

Good acting

Ailina’s POV:

I didn’t move from my place, and stood there, looking at the drama unfolding in front of me.

“Dad, It was a sister who pushed my mother down. I just saw that Ailina reached out and pushed my mother.” Hallie said while crying

Then, she looked at me with provocation in her eyes and said, “Sister, why did you push my mother down? I know you don’t like her, but the child in her stomach is also your brother. How can you do this?”

Then, supporting Susan with one hand, Dad looked at me coldly and said, “Bastard! Get down here hurriedly! How can you still stand there as if it has nothing to do with you.”

Susan took Dad’s hand and said weekly, “Don’t blame her! Everything in the family, originally belong to her, but if there is another brother, he must share things. Is it reasonable that she doesn’t want his brother and I can understand her!”

At that moment, Ellie walked over with a hot water towel in her hand and wiped Susan's forehead with almost no sweat.

Hallie screamed beside her mother, pouring oil on the fire.

“Sister, you are so ruthless! He is your brother. How can you push my mother like this for the family property?”

Probably because Hallie and Susan were crying so loudly that it attracted Grandpa's attention as he walked out of his room holding the cane in his hand.

When he saw Susan lying on the ground with a pool of blood under her buttocks Grandpa's eyes narrowed as he asked, “What’s the matter?”

Hallie took the lead and said, “Grandpa, it was the sister who pushed my mother down from upstairs. The elder sister didn’t go home last night. My mother asked a few words as she also cared about her. But it seemed that it enraged sister and she pushed her down from upstairs.”

Susan and Hallie dare to take out the property as a gimmick in front of my father, but in front of Grandpa, they are afraid.

So, they picked up my thing about staying outside last night to be the excuse.

Grandpa is getting older. Even if he could accept a few new things, it was impossible to accept the fact that his granddaughter does not return home at night.

Sure enough, hearing this he frowned slightly and looked at me.

However, I looked at Grandpa calmly and smiled indifferently.

“You bastard! How can you still laugh at this moment?” Dad yelled at me angrily.

“George, send her to the hospital first and talk about other things later,” Grandpa said in a low voice.

Then, with a panicked look on his face, Dad bent down to hold Susan. “I will take you to the hospital!” he said.

However, Susan held his hand and said, “No, first you promise me that you don’t blame Ailina whether our child can be saved or not.”

“Susan why don’t you cherish your health so much?” Dad said with a heartache! His face is filled with anxiety.

Looking at the two lovebirds in front of me, I couldn’t help but laugh coldly.

“Susan, I heard that you played opera in your early years. I never thought you are addicted to acting and your acting skills are still good…”

Hearing my words, Susan looked at me with amazement.

However, hearing her amazement, I slowly walked downstairs.

“Have you ever heard about saying that you cannot hold a wolf if you are not willing to sacrifice your child? But at least you have to pregnant with a real child. Do you want to hold a wolf with a pillow?” I said with a smile.

As soon as I finished my word, I bent down and touched the pillow in her stomach!

Susan’s face changed as she reached out to hold her belly.

“Ailina, what are you doing? George, quickly take me to hospital. My stomach hurt!” She looked at Dad helplessly and said.

“Please take me to the city hospital in the East City where Dr. Carter has been taking care of me!” she added.

Dad looked at me with a fierce eye and he said coldly, “Let go of your aunt!”
