I Hope You Will Never Regret

Her mother rushed to her and tried to kick her while she was down. Avery reacted quickly and managed to dodge her mother’s attack. Everything happened so fast.

Her mother lost her balance and fell on the broken casserole dish. The broken casserole shards pieced her hand ruthlessly. Blood started dripping on the floor. She felt an excruciating pain in her hand she nearly fainted.

Her face was pale and screamed at Aiden, “What are you waiting for? Look at what she did to me. Beat her up until she stops breathing. Don’t worry about your father. I will tell him that it was self-defense.”

Aiden felt like he was in a dream, his mind went blank. Avery kicked the dining table. Aiden and Lily fell down with their chairs.

She walked to Lily who was sitting on the floor with a confused expression and slapped her hard across her face.

Lily’s face was burning, she looked at Avery viciously. She wanted to fight back but when she saw Avery’s cold eyes, she decided against it. She was hoping that Aiden would teach Avery a lesson. Unfortunately, it was her wishful thinking.

A trace of coldness flashed across Avery’s beautiful eyes and said, “Aunt Elizabeth, it is clear to me that you are not my biological mother. Then tell me, who my mother is?”

She gave Lily another hard slap across her face. Lily was crying sorrowfully, holding her swelling face.

Aiden was fuming with rage; he rushed to his sister with his hand raised up. Avery kicked him so hard in his ribs.

He screamed staggered back a few steps and heavily fell to the ground. Avery didn’t give him time to breathe; she slapped him hard across his face.

Aiden couldn’t believe his eyes; he was beaten up by his younger sister, but he couldn’t do anything. When did she learn to fight?

They weren’t aware that Avery had been trained by Clayton since she was five years old.

Avery smiled at her mother, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes and said, “If you don’t tell me who my mother is today, I will beat your precious niece until you don’t recognize her.”

Lily was so scared she shouted at her aunt and said, “Auntie, please tell her the truth. Who is her mother?” Avery kicked her hard on her stomach; it was so painful she couldn’t catch her breath for a few seconds.

Her aunt wanted to help her, but she was in so much pain. However, she was seriously injured. She was silently praying that her hand was not crippled.

Avery looked at her mother and said, “I will give you three minutes to tell me the truth. In the meantime, I will be playing with your precious niece.”

Lily held her stomach and crawled to her aunt. She was so scared she didn’t know that Avery was a monster.

Avery grabbed Lily’s hair and slapped her hard on both cheeks. Tears were streaming down Lily’s face. She was in a sorry state. Her eyes were red and puffy.

She had never suffered such treatment since she was born. She looked at Avery with pleading eyes and said, “Please forgive me, Avery. I was not part of their scheme. Why are you beating me up since I have never provoked you?”

Avery laughed out loud and replied, “You are barking at the wrong tree, Lily. I will play with you until your precious aunt tells me the truth.” She kicked her again then she walked slowly step by step towards her brother.

Aiden took a step back and asked with a trembling voice, “What are you trying to do, Avery? It was not my intention to trip you, I am sorry.” Lily shouted at the top of her voice, “He is lying, Avery. Beat him up.”

She looked at her brother coldly and said, “Aiden, you’ve wronged me for so many years, but I have forgiven you. Why did you allow your mother to come between us? Do you want to replace me with Lily?”

Aiden shook his head and replied, “Mom wanted to teach you a lesson for humiliating her in front of Principal Glen. Also, Mom told me that Dad threatened to divorce her and marry Bridgette. Hence, I agreed to help her.”

Avery laughed out loud and said, “You are so naïve and brainless, Aiden. Your mother was lying through her teeth. Dad and Aunt Bridge have a father-daughter relationship.

When Aunt Bridge was twelve years old, she was kidnapped and sold to the underworld boss, but Dad rescued her. Hence, she dropped everything when Dad needed help.

Also, when your mother was in labour, Dad and Aunt Bridge were in the delivery room. Even their hospital wards were on different floors. My gut feeling tells me that Aunt Elizabeth is not my biological mother.

I think Dad is hiding something from me. I think my mother died when giving birth to me. I will find out from Daddy when he comes back from East London.”

Aiden was shocked when he heard that Bridgette dropped everything to repay his father’s kindness. He was cursing himself for believing his mother’s lies. He was naïve indeed.

Avery looked at her brother and said, “Since you are easily fooled and you chose Lily over me, you are no longer my brother.” Aiden’s heart ached when he heard Avery’s words. His chest became stuffy, and a strange feeling arose from his heart.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

Then she turned to Lily and said, “Since we are not related, I will allow you to stay in my house because of your father. He was a good man and kind to me. Please try not to provoke me.”

Lily was stunned by Avery’s words; she closed her eyes to conceal the hatred in her heart. She looked at her aunt and shook her head. She was really disappointed in her aunt.

Aunt Elizabeth’s plan had backfired; she was sitting on the floor in a daze holding her injured hand.

Then Avery walked to the lift at a snail’s pace and pressed the second floor. It was clear to her that Aunt Elizabeth wanted to kill her. She wished with all her heart that Aunt Bridge was her biological mother.

People in the dining room heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Avery leave. Aiden walked to his mother slowly and said, “Mom, please tell me the truth, is Avery your daughter or not? Did my father threaten to divorce you?”

His mother looked at him and asked, “Does it matter? Didn’t she tell you that you are no longer her brother? Please ask the family driver to take me to the hospital. My hand is injured.”

Aiden looked at his mother coldly and said, “No one is going anywhere before I know the truth.” His mother was fuming with rage; she tried to intimidate him to no avail.

Lily looked at her aunt and said, “Auntie, tell us the truth. My face is burning. I need to go to the hospital to get something for pain.” Her aunt had heartache when she saw Lily’s face.
