What if she still fall?

Ailina’s POV:

Hearing my father's words, I sneered and pulled out the pillow from Susan’s skirt.

As soon as I took out the pillow, the noisy living room became utterly quiet. Everyone stood there in shock and disbelief, not moving for a long time.

“Dad, here is your so-called son! Take care of her!” I sneered, throwing a pillow in my father’s arms.

Looking at the pillow in my dad’s hand, Susan's face became pale. Then, covering her face, she cried.

“George, I just want to be with you and want Hallie call you dad rightfully. I just want her to recognize her ancestors. Honey, I have been with you for twenty years and Hallie is almost twenty years old. However, she still didn’t have a clear identity, and she is still laughed outside…”

“Even though… you still didn’t do such a thing…” He said, clenching the pillow in his hands.

Seeing this, Susan shook her head and wept, as if she regretted it and tangled.

“I can’t help it… I really can’t help it. I feel sorry for Hallie! She is so poor…”

“Dad, I also don’t want to called bastard… who have mother but no father…” Hallie held her mother and cried.

Seeing mother and daughter crying so hard, I must admit that they know my father so well that they could control his emotions and actions so well…

Sure enough, seeing mother and daughter pair crying like this and hearing their so-called heartfelt words, he quickly embraced them, saying, “I am sorry… I am sorry… it’s all my fault! I didn’t do my duty as a father…”

Seeing their so-called family drama, I felt bored and decided to go upstairs to have some rest.

However, before I could even take a single step, my father shouted, “Where are you going?”

I turned around to look at them.

“I am tired and didn’t want to watch your father and daughter reunion show, so I am going to my room!” I said.

“Even if your aunt is not pregnant, it didn’t give you the right to push her from such a high staircase. Do you even know how serious it could have been? Your aunt is always so good to you, how can you treat her like this! Quickly, apologize to her!” He scolded.

I sneered. “Apologize?”

Then, I pulled out my phone, opened the video, and placed it on the table, saying, “Dad, please see carefully how she fell from the stairs. Don’t try to cover her fake pregnancy with my pushing her down!”

Saying that, I left upstairs.

This video had already recorded how Susan fell from the stairs.

As I went upstairs, I could hear Grandpa knocking his cane on the floor and my father making excuses for Susan…

After I went back to my room, I could no longer hear their words.

After all, Susan had so many excuses and with my father believing her for so many years, I can’t change his opinion overnight.

Sure enough, in the evening he knocked on my door.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw him standing at the door of my room, holding a bowl of soup in his hands, with his face filled with a rare kindness.

“Ailina, why haven’t you slept yet? What are you doing?” he asked.

I was browsing my computer when he knocked on my door, so when he asked that question, turned my laptop to him.

However, he casually glanced at it and said, “Ailina, here drink some soup! Your Aunt Susan has especially prepared it for you!”

I didn’t want to quarrel with him, so I took the soup from her. After all, he is my father. Even though he is a bit stupid, he is not bad.

After taking a sip of the soup, I looked at him and said, “Dad, please thank Aunt on my behalf!”

Hearing that, he smiled and said, “Ailina, I am sorry for today! I have misunderstood you!”

However, I just smiled and didn’t say anything.

“Ailina, please don’t blame your Aunt for what happened today! It’s just that when she fell down in panic was and became a little confused, thinking that you pushed her down. She didn’t mean to hurt you intentionally!”

“Oh!” I said dumbly, bowed my head, taking another sip of the soup in my hand.

Dad sighed and said, “Ailina, I know you have been wrong today, however why didn’t you reached out to hold her hand. If you held her, she didn’t fell down, you wouldn’t have been wronged and…”

“And no one know about Aunt Susan’s fake pregnancy and you would been able to marry her, right?” I said calmly, interrupting his words.

He didn’t seem to expect me to see through him as he coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment.

“You’re aunt has been living under our roof all these years, and has been taking care all of us tirelessly, without any identity. She just wants to have a family with me.” he said.

“Dad, the reason I didn’t reached out to hold Aunt’s hand to avoid any misunderstanding. If aunt still fell down, then it could have been conclusive that I did push her down, right?” I said lightly.

“As long as you reach for her, how could she fell?”

“What if Aunt Susan has to fall today?”

“How is this possible?” He said, shaking his head.

“Why not? If…”

“Okay, drop it for now. This is the end of the story and the past things will not be said.”

Have you ever loved my mother?

Ailina’s POV:

I wanted to talk about this matter with Dad. But apparently, he was not in the mood to listen to my explanation. It seemed that he had come here to talk about something else.

As expected, he sighed, saying, “Ailina, your mother has passed away for several years and I have been single for a long time now. I am old and need a company. Aunt Susan and I can get along with each other. Well, we want to get married, but your grandfather has disagreed with us all along. Ailina, Grandfather always takes your advice. Would you please help me to persuade him?”

Hearing his words, I looked up at him. “Dad, have you ever loved my mother?” I asked.

“How can I know what love is at that age? I just want to get along with your aunt.” He said, frowning.

Hearing that I could not help but laugh. “Dad, Hallie is only one year younger than me. Is she your biological daughter too?”

“Why do you say that?” He asked. His face clouded as he coughed softly.

‘Why? Of course, because Susan is an unpromising mistress!

As mom has gone, I had to guard her home for her. Now that mistress has entered the house I a, not able to drive them out yet. But one day I must drive Hallie and Susan away!

But of course, I could not say this to my father now.

After I drank the whole soup, I said weakly, “Dad, I mean, it’s only been a few years since Mom died, but Hallie is just one year younger than me. You are an adult’s affairs are so complicated that I can’t understand it and control it. Dad, you had better ask grandpa.”

Saying that I handed the empty ball to him, smiling innocently.

George POV:

Hearing her words, my face turned red, and I suddenly felt flustered. I felt that there was something else in her words.

However, if she had blamed me straightforwardly, I could still use my majesty to scare her, but with her words, there was nothing I could do about it.

I took a bowl and coughed unnaturally.

“Ailina go to bed early. Don’t play on the computer too late!”

Then, I took the empty bowl and walked out of her room.

Standing in front of her pink and tender room’s door, I signed. I didn’t know why, but I felt that my daughter had suddenly grown up.

I feel estranged and depressed while talking with her.

When I return to my bedroom, Susan has been waiting for me.

As soon as she saw me, she asked, “How’s it going? What did Ailina say?”

“I think she has changed. She seemed to understand everything in her mind. Oh, she knows that Hallie is our child.” I said, frowning.

“Did she blame you?” She asked.

I shook my head, “No, but there must be something wrong in her heart. She wouldn’t help us!”

The next morning, seeing Ailina coming downstairs, Susan walked over enthusiastically, saying, “Ailina, today I made your favorite sandwich. Come and eat.”

Ailina smiled slightly and sat down.

Seeing that Susan busily bought a sandwich for her and poured her a glass of juice.

“Thank you!” she said politely.

Then, Susan quickly picked another egg and handed it to her. “Here it is. Ailina, eat an egg to supplement your nutrition.”

“Thank you, Aunt!”

Ailina had a faint expression on her face.

Seeing this, Susan took a deep breath and said, “Ailina, I fell downstairs yesterday. It was really scary. I didn’t see it clearly and misunderstood you.”

Ailina finished eating the egg as her lips curled up in a smile.

“Aunt, the point is not getting me wrong, but the pillow under your clothes!” she said.

“Ailina, I was helpless. Your grandpa didn’t agree with me and your father, so I took an unwise step….” Susan said, sobbing.

“Aunt, you don’t have to explain to me. You should explain to Dad and grandpa. After all, you are not pregnant with my son or my grandson.” Ailina said as she stood up.

To be honest, there was nothing wrong with Ailina’s words, but it was unpleasant to hear. I frowned. “How could you talk to your aunt like that? What's son or grandson?”

She smiled sweetly. “Dad, you have been taking care of your unborn son for several months, and suddenly it turned into a pillow. Didn’t you feel furious? Well, I do not expect that my dad is so open-minded.”

“Ailina…” I shouted. My face turned red with anger, but I could not contradict her.

“I have finished. Help yourself!” Saying that she went upstairs.

Photos

Susan’s POV:

After breakfast, I was chatting with my daughter while applying nail polish.

Hallie asked, “Mom, why did Ailina suddenly became so different? And what did she mean today?”

I frowned, stretching out my hand so that she could also apply nail polish for me, saying, “What did she mean? She just wants to instigate the dispute between your father and me. She was like an instigator in this house. She not only wants to instigate your father but also the old man. The old man hasn’t let me for a long time. He must have listened to her calumny. I better arrange for her to marry some people earlier.”

Hallie paused for a moment. “Mom, what do you mean? Are you saying that you want Ailina and Darren to get married? No way! He is mine!” she said in a raised voice.

However, looking at Ailina, who was walking downstairs, I felt a little guilty. “Ailina, are you going out?” I asked.

She smiled calmly and nodded, “Yes.”

Then, she carried her bag and left.

As soon as she walked out, Hallie asked, “Mom, did she just hear us talking?” her voice was filled with panic.

“Hallie, mind your voice. She didn’t hear what we said before. But why did you suddenly raise your voice!” I said angrily.

“I…” She stammered.

“Mom, you been on the focused on the affair of you and dad every day, and I helped you along. But what about me? When will I enter the Moore family? Do you know how much I like Darren?” she said, gritting her teeth.

I laughed, “Isn’t that Darren already so fascinated by you that he can’t distract from you at all? Why are you so anxious?”

“But, didn’t he and Ailina about to get engaged? How can I not be in a hurry? Mom, Dad is so fascinated by you and obeys you on everything, but aren’t you also anxious about your future?” Hallie said, curling her lips.

“As a daughter, how can you say that to me? Only when I get marry with your father can you be a real Carter and called Hallie Carter. And only when you are Miss Carter, you are eligible to marry Darren Moore, understand? Otherwise, do you think Mrs. Moore let her son get married with a woman from some unknown background?”

After thinking for a while, she nodded and said, “Mom, what shall we do next?”

“The day before yesterday, you had such a good opportunity, but you missed it. If you have been succeeded that day, we would have not to worry about this. Till now, both of our businesses would have been solved!” I said helplessly.

Hallie gritted her teeth. “Who could know that Ailina, that bitch was so sensitive to the drug. Even though the drug was tasteless and colorless, she still recognized it and only took a sip of it.”

“A sip?” Hearing that, my eyes lit up and an idea suddenly popped into my mind.

Then, I took out my phone and made a call, “Help me find a computer expert!”

Ailina’s POV:

When I went back home, it was already noon. As I walked, I was talking with my assistant on the phone, “JK Entertainment just signed three new artists. You can train them.”

“Me? I won’t meet them. You can make all the decisions and don’t bother me by reporting every little thing. Jenny, you are the person I trust the most, understand?”

However, as soon as I reached the door, I saw a lot of people sitting in the living room.

Except for Dad, Susan, and Hallie, even Grandpa is also there. What’s more Darren and her mother are also present.

From the way they all looked at me, it seemed that they were waiting for me.

“Jenny, I will call you back later. There is something that I need to deal now.” I said to the person on the phone.

After I hung up, I walked inside.

As soon as Dad saw me, he said coldly, “Come over here!” His voice is filled with irritation and annoyance.

Hearing that, I walked over indifferently.

As soon as I walked over, he threw a stack of photos at my face, saying, “Ailina, look what have you done? Did you not care about the Carter family face?”

I frowned. Then, bent down and picked the photos from the floor. There are a total of five photos.

One is a photo of me drinking in the bar with my friends. Another one of me and a man going inside the hotel together and the rest of them are me and a man lying on the bed in different poses.

After looking at these photos, I put them on the table calmly.

Darren asked with a pained look on his face, “Ailina, am I not good enough for you? Why did you do this to me? We are about to get engaged, but you are fooling around with another man behind my back… You… you disappointed me so much…”

Hearing her lips, my lips curled up in a smile, and couldn’t help but sneered inwardly. ‘Disappointed? Shouldn’t you be happy? Had not been you messing around with Hallie all long, already?’

“How can you still smile?” Dad said angrily.

After scolding, he hurriedly looked at Mrs. Moore and apologized, “Madam Moore, I am so sorry. Ailina is still young and ignorant. Don’t worry, I certainly will knock sense into her.”

Hearing that, Madam Moore sneered. “Young and ignorant? Didn’t she know her identity? Didn’t she know that she is about get engaged with my son? Let me tell you Mr. Wilson, our Moore family will never accept a immoral woman like her as their daughter-in-law.”
