Love Is Fair by Kerri novel Chapter 212

Chapter 212 Kneeling Eliza was fuming with anger because of Hailey’s words. Hailey had given her a deep impression of being obedient when they had first met, so she had always mistakenly thought of her as a pushover and had never learned a lesson after suffering losses several times. Maya was also angry and couldn’t help scolding, “The young lady of the Newman family is so rude! No wonder Owen dislikes and

divorced her.” She had said the last sentence to Alan. However, he didn’t echo but said solemnly, “Don’t provoke Hailey anymore. You’re no match for her.” Then he pulled his arm out of her hold and got into the car first. Staring after him, Maya was lost and felt a little panic for no reason. This was not the first time he had pulled his arm out of her hold. Maybe it was because she was old and less pretty than before. Anyway, she felt he was getting farther and farther away from her… “Aunt Maya, what did Uncle Alan mean? Why can’t we provoke Hailey? If you hadn’t stopped me just now, I would have slapped her!” Eliza was still resentful. She was pretending to be a gentle lady at ordinary times. During the few years abroad, she had always hung out with foreign thugs and often slapped others. So, she thought it was a piece of cake to teach Hailey a lesson. “Enough! Do you want to implicate me further?” Maya straightened her face and scolded, “If you continue to be so impulsive, you’d better get away from me. Otherwise, you would not only fail to climb up but also get me in trouble!” Eliza was unconvinced, thinking Maya was not nobler than her because she was depending on a man for a living. But she was still a fledgling, and her parents were unreliable, so she could only rely on Maya now. “I will not be so impulsive anymore.” Eliza pretended to be obedient and said aggrievedly, “Aunt Maya, didn’t you say you will claim justice for me and teach Hailey a good lesson?” Maya snorted, “What’s the hurry? We don’t even know her well now! How can we give her a fatal blow? What you need to do now is to gain

a firm foothold in Universal TV and win Owen’s heart back as soon as possible.” Hearing her mention Owen, Eliza couldn’t help lowering her head in frustration. He used to be so kind to her and had never refused her anything in the past. But he was unwilling to spare a look at her after now. It had been only a few years, so she really could not understand why he had changed. He only cared about Hailey now! Eliza and Maya were suffering a huge mood swing, but Hailey didn’t take this small incident seriously. As soon as getting in the car, Chris said, “The Brown family always prides itself on being a family of scholars. How can Eliza and Maya be

so specious? I think they are a family of hypocrites instead!” Hailey was checking her work emails on her tablet. Seeing him so angry, she chuckled, “Neither of them is your girlfriend. Why are you

angry?” “I’m angry to see them!” Chris had been by Hailey’s side for a long time, so he was good at identifying b*tches and could see through their dirty tricks at a glance. Although Maya and Eliza were always calculating, they were not very smart. “The ancestors of the Brown family were indeed scholars, and there are a lot of famous people among them. But their descendants have not cultivated their self-cultivation well. They spared no efforts to develop in the Officialdom and business circle, destroying their family legacy.” Hailey rubbed her brows and continued lightly, “When Eliza’s father took over the family business, it was only an empty shell. He is not good at doing business and owes a lot of debt now. He is trying his best maintains the good reputation of the scholarly

family because he wants to marry her daughter and sister into powerful families.” It was normal for wealthy families to get united by marriage. The more powerful a family was, the more importance they attached to cultivating their descendants. Therefore, some powerful families preferred to marry a virtuous daughter-in-law from a scholarly family to foster the next generation better. Eliza’s father, Andrew Brown, pinned his hope of family revitalization on the marriages of his sister and daughter. He had let Maya and Eliza take various classes for noble ladies to cultivate their artistic sentiments since they had been children. But he

forgot to teach them how to support themselves and be good people. So, although they were beautiful, they were empty. Maya and Eliza were kind of like the courtesans in ancient times. If anyone married such a woman, the descendants of his family would be led astray. When Hailey arrived at the hospital, she saw Ava sitting on the bench at the door of the ward in a daze from a distance. Seeing her, Ava hurriedly wiped her eyes, stood up, and greeted her, “Hailey, welcome back.” Then, she looked at Chris and said with a smile, “Hi, Chris.” As soon as he began to smile, he saw an unusual red mark on her left cheek. He immediately showed a serious look, stepped forward, and pinched her chin, asking, “What’s wrong with your face?” Ava took a step back and said, “Nothing…” Seeing this, Hailey frowned. Suddenly, there was a burst of crying from the ward.

It was unpleasing to the ear, but she found it familiar. Chris also recognized the voice, so he asked with a long face, “Your dad beat you?” Ava nodded with red eyes in silence. She was afraid Hailey would get angry, so she hurriedly raised her head and said, “I tried to duck his slap but failed…” Haile took a few more steps toward the ward with a deep frown. The bodyguards at the door all bowed and greeted her. Seeing her gloomy face, one of them hurriedly said, “Ms. Newman, don’t worry, Old K is inside. Reid had made a scene in the hospital for a long time, so Old Mr. Newman let him in…” The door of the ward was closed to prevent the shameful voice from coming out. After all, family shame should not be made public. Through the glass window, Hailey saw Reid kneeling in front of Old Mr. Newman and letting out unpleasant howls. Old K was standing beside Old Mr. Newman like a tall and strong statue. He was staring at Reid so intensely that the latter didn’t dare to move recklessly, so he could only kneel and how], “Dad, please take pity on me. Hailey wants me to die! She has frozen all my properties! I became a deadbeat and can’t even take planes or trains now. How can I go abroad in the future? She has also broken Morgan’s legs. The doctor said that he can never be curled and will have to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. It’s too miserable! I don’t want to end up like him. Please save me!” When Reid was crying, he intended to step forward to grab Old Mr. Newman’s hand. But seeing Old K glaring at him, he withdrew his hand fearfully. Old Mr. Newman’s eyes were full of sadness, but he didn’t say a word. Seeing this, Reid couldn’t help panicking and moving forward on his knees He then continued, “Dad, even if you don’t feel sorry for Morgan or me, you should still care about Eve, right? She is your granddaughter! Morgan dares not come, so he asked me to beg you for saving her. The Edwards family has put her under house arrest, and no one else can help her now. She is Morgan’s only daughter, and he will rely on her in the future. Even a vicious tiger will not eat its cubs. You can’t bear to watch her die, right?” Reid had said so much that he felt thirsty, and he had run out of tears. Seeing Old Mr. Newman still keep silent, he knelt up straight and bit the bullet to say, “I’ve made up my mind. I will kneel here until you agree to help!” Before Jason could speak, the door of the ward was pushed open, and a cold voice said, “If you don’t want to get up, you can kneel here until you die. And I will bury you.”
