Chapter 18 Do You Want To Die?
Mia was a little surprised. Emily was kicked out of the house by Armstrong family and lost all face. She lived in this remote place with her bastard children and Mia had heard that she grew medicine for a living.
This kind of life was completely different from that of a celebrity like Mia! Mia had thought that because of working hard to maintain her meager income, Emily must be looking dirty and disheveled. Maybe covered in leaves, with dry hair and a gaunt face, looking like some kind of dirty village girl.
She had come here today to have a laugh at Emily’s expense, but what she saw was completely different from her expectation. Emily had a calm and mature temperament from all these years of living on her own terms and having her own responsibilities. As a mother, her experience of nurturing her children added a softness. Compared to when Emily was still a young miss of the Armstrong family a few years ago, she looked even more elegant.
Mia snorted coldly, and she felt the bitter bile of jealousy rise up inside her. Even now, she still couldn’t compare to Emily? She couldn’t help but try to provoke Emily, “Sis, I came here on father’s orders today. Your relationship with him has been broken for all these years, and he’s had time to reflect on it as well. You can’t be blamed for everything that happened in the past. But he’s old and stubborn and unwilling to take that first step. He’s using this opportunity to ask me to come and invite you to my wedding, think of it as an olive branch. You wouldn’t disrespect him by throwing that back in his face, would you?” Mia took out a wedding invitation and handed it to Emily, calmly watching her reaction. Emily glanced at the wedding invitation. On the bright red background, there were several big words written in bright gold, which were very dazzling. She smiled coldly. The Armstrong family’s way of doing things was really ridiculous. They had already driven her out five years ago, so why bother to contact her now?
Their so-called conscience was worth less than a drop of water in the ocean.
Emily took the wedding invitation and looked at it with disdain. She laughed and tore it into pieces, scattering it all over the ground. “I have had nothing to do with the Armstrong family for a long time. My mother only gave birth to one daughter. I have no siblings, don’t call me your sister. Finally, I won’t
attend your wedding. If you have nothing else to say, get out. You are not welcome here.” She rolled her eyes at Mia.
Mia was not angry. She crossed her arms and smiled. “It’s been so many years. Don’t tell me you still can’t let go of Charles, dear sister. But Charles is already my fiance. Even if you are unwilling to face it, what’s the use? Who asked you to do such a shameful thing which killed your mother? You deserve everything you got.”
She clicked her tongue and shook her head.
When the old matter was mentioned, Emily felt a pain in her heart and her face turned a little pale.
How could she not care about her mother dying because of her, and Charles… In the end, she was sad.
When Grandma Lucy saw her expression, she felt a burst of heartache. Looking at Mia, she immediately became angry.
She took the broom and hit Mia. “Get out, you little bitch! Only trash comes out of that hole in your face!”
Seeing that the dirty broom was about to hit her, Mia was so scared that her face turned pale and she hurriedly dodged running all over the house.
Her clothes were limited edition!
Being chased by an old lady with a broom all over the place, when had she ever been in such a sorry state? Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Unable to dodge, she suddenly pushed Lucy who was in front of her. This damned old woman.
“You old crazy hag, don’t touch me!”
How could Lucy withstand being pushed at full strength? She immediately fell to the ground and hit her head on the table, instantly, blood gushed out.
“Grandmother!” Emily was shocked and quickly went to check on her grandmother who had already fainted and was unconscious. Emily glared at Mia and shouted at her, “Mia, do you want to die?” Mia was already very frightened by the sight of the blood. Emily’s entire body was filled with hostility as she forcefully pushed Mia out of the door with brute force. “Get lost! If you dare to take another step into my house, I will kill you!”
Mia was pushed so hard that her butt hit the floor outside the door. Although she was angry, Emily was too imposing. She did not dare to provoke her anymore and could only curse and leave.
Looking at the blood left on the table, Emily trembled all over. She really could not lose her grandmother!
She called the ambulance, and her voice trembled uncontrollably. The hospital was not close to here, and she was not sure if her grandmother would be in danger. Her grandmother had always been in poor health. An hour later, Lucy was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. As a family member, Emily was called away by the doctor to talk. “You are the granddaughter of the old lady, right? You’re an adult, how could you be so careless with her? Her health is already not the best, and her body is already quite weak at this age. Now you’ve gone and let her get injured like this! Luckily this time it’s not life-threatening, otherwise you would regret it for the rest of your life.” The doctor scolded her
bitterly, and Emily was also full of self-blame, she could only agree and nod along. It was only when she heard that her grandmother was not in danger that she breathed a sigh of relief. In her heart, other than self-blame, there was also resentment. Not only for Mia, but also for herself. How could she be distracted by a few words from Mia? If she had not been distracted at that time and looked out for her grandmother properly, they would not have ended up in the hospital!
