Chapter 8 Chapter 8

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."
