A series of kidnaps exhausted Aleigha.
She still knew too little about this ugly world.
She went back to the Gardner family after staying in Adrian's villa for about one week.
The jubilant decoration at home attracted Aleigha's attention immediately.
Laura was sitting in the living room with the child in her arms. She looked dull and turned to the sound source after hearing the footsteps.
She saw Aleigha standing in the center of the living room.
"Aleigha, you're back." Looking at Aleigha, Laura turned red in her eyes.
Aleigha twisted her brows and asked, "What happened?"
"They divorced, and then Young Master got married to another woman immediately."
"Old Master was infuriated and got sick. Miss flew to the US. I wanted to call you but couldn't reach you."
Laura trembled slightly, and her tears fell down instantly.
"Where is he?" Aleigha felt short of breath. Marcos should take this opportunity to get married!
That was why he urged Aleigha to leave with Adrian.
"It is said that he bought a new villa. And he has been away for a few days."
"I have to look after the child and serve Old Master. Lainey never stops crying, which is quite annoying."
"Stay here, and don't worry." Aleigha went upstairs after saying so.
She went to check Dustin first. Dustin lay on his sickbed and looked much worse than last year.
With his eyes closed, Dustin lost all his aweinspiring aura.
Aleigha felt sad at this sight. In fact, she liked Dustin better than any other Gardners.
Regardless of what happened in her last life, Dustin tried his best to help Aleigha in this life.
Therefore, hatred died away as time passed.
As for Marcos, Aleigha wouldn't spare him.
Since Dustin was in a sound sleep, Aleigha left and closed the door.
"Marcos, you heartless asshole! I will hunt you down even if I become a demon next life!"
"You will be punished for what you did to me."
Lainey, in the attic, cried at the top of her voice, but no one bothered to stop her. So, it should be common for those servants now.
Aleigha got changed, instructed the servants to prepare the lunch, and then called Marcos.
Marcos was perturbed by the call from Aleigha.
On that night Adrian annulled the engagement, Marcos knew that Aleigha was not so innocent as she seemed.
Aleigha told Marcos to bring his new wife back for lunch.
Due to this request, Marcos felt uneasy for the whole morning. At last, he soothed himself that Aleigha was his daughter.
Whatever happened, she was a Gardner and couldn't hurt his own father.
At noon, Aleigha dressed up and asked Laura to put on a new dress. They waited in the living room for the arrival of the new couple.
When Marcos came back with his new wife, Aleigha greeted them with a smiley face.
Marcos' new wife, about 35 years old, was tall and slender. She wore delicate makeup.
The woman didn't bother to hide her surprise at the sight of Aleigha.
On the other hand, Aleigha put on a faint smile and showed no more emotions to her new stepmother.
Aleigha was warm and showed unusual intimacy to Marcos.
Marcos felt relieved, thinking that his daughter wouldn't dare to be in the way of his happiness.
