Chapter 327 Accident

“You scared now?”

Aella turned around when she heard that familiar mocking voice behind her.

Daphne and Jenny were already standing in front of her, smug smiles plastered on their faces.

Daphne gave a cold laugh. “Aella, Anna is the new lady of the Cunninghams now. You’d better be ready–she’s not going to go easy on you.”

Aella’s eyes flicked between the two of them. “I’m not that easy to bully,” she shot back. “And who does she think she is to teach me a lesson?”

Jenny smirked, clearly enjoying herself. “Stop being so stubborn, Dr. Reid. Soon, every woman in high society will join forces to drive you out of Vleka. You won’t have anywhere left to go.”

Aella gave a short, sharp laugh. “Funny. You, a spoiled illegitimate daughter who lives off others, still manage to survive in Vleka. I work hard and live honestly. You really think I’d have no place to stand?”

She stared at them, her tone turning cold. “Zera was sent to prison by Tyrone himself. You don’t have the guts to go after him, so you come after me instead. You’re just bullies who only pick on the weak.”

From across the hall, Aella saw Daniel waving at her. She ignored the duo’s angry faces and walked away without another word.

Daniel immediately noticed something off in her expression. “Did someone bother you?”

Aella shook her head.

“Good,” Daniel said softly. “Come on, I’ll introduce you to a senior doctor.”

Half an hour later, as Aella and Daniel came out of a side hall, they ran into Tyrone and Brad.

Everyone exchanged polite greetings–except Tyrone. He stayed silent, his dark eyes locked on Aella like she was the only person in the room.

Aella avoided his gaze and said calmly, “Daniel, Brad, you two talk. I need to use the restroom.”

She turned and headed toward the stairs.

Not far away, Daphne, Jenny, and Julian exchanged a look, then quietly followed her upstairs.

Aella took her time entering the restroom.

She had thought that after divorcing Tyrone, she could finally live a peaceful life.

But now that the Winters and the Guineveres were preparing to merge through marriage, both families saw her as the one obstacle standing in the way of Tyrone and Vivienne’s wedding.

And just when that chaos hadn’t settled, Anna–pregnant with George’s child–had tied herself to the Cunninghams and instantly become its new matriarch.

Anna hadn’t said anything threatening yet, but Aella trusted her instincts.

Anna was clearly here with bad intentions.

Aella silently counted on her fingers. Edwin, Ralph, Jasmine, Vivienne, Jenny, Anna, Daphne…

Every single one of them saw her as a thorn in their side–all because Tyrone still couldn’t let her go.

Lost in thought, Aella stepped up to the sink–only to freeze when she realized Anna and Jenny were already there.

Her eyes flicked to Anna’s round belly. She quietly pulled her hands back, deciding not to wash them after all.

When Jenny noticed Aella about to leave, she “accidentally” jabbed her lipstick right against Aella’s white gown.

Before Aella could even react, Jenny gasped dramatically. “Oh no, I’m so sorry, Dr. Reid! I didn’t mean to! How much was that dress? I’ll pay you back in full–please don’t be mad!”

Aella lowered her head, looking at the red stain now smeared across her gown. Around them, several guests began to gather–two of Jenny’s friends, Daphne, and a few other onlookers.

Realizing something was off, Aella instinctively stepped back, keeping her distance from Jenny

and Anna.

Anna quickly grabbed some tissues and stepped forward. “Dr. Reid, let me help you clean that

off.”

Aella took another step back. “Mrs. Cunningham, don’t bother. It’s lipstick–it won’t come off with a tissue.”

But Anna reached out and grabbed Aella’s arm. “You and Ms. Townsend are both honored guests tonight,” she said smoothly. “Since Ms. Townsend offered to pay for the dress, why don’t I take you to change into something new?”

“I said no, Aella replied, her voice firm. She tried to pull her arm back, but Anna’s grip

tightened painfully.

“Don’t be so polite,” Anna said with a forced smile.

Finished.

Aella felt pain shoot up her arm and yanked it free on instinct.

But Anna stumbled backward, giving a sharp cry before falling near the restroom doorway.

She clutched her stomach with one hand and the floor with the other, grimacing as she accused, “Dr. Reid! Even if I’m Zera’s aunt, I’ve never wronged you! How could you push a pregnant woman like me?”

Her voice was loud enough for everyone nearby to hear.

Jenny jumped in right away. “Dr. Reid, Zera already suffered because of you, and now you’re going after her family? You knew Anna was pregnant and still pushed her! Were you trying to make her lose the baby and get revenge on the Caldwells?”

Daphne crouched beside Anna, her voice sharp and dramatic. “Aella, you knew she was carrying the Cunninghams‘ only heir! And you still tried to hurt her? The Caldwells may be a small family, but that doesn’t give you the right to challenge the Cunninghams themselves!”
