Chapter 108This Grievance Is Nothing


    Silvia continued insulting her, "Alina, don''t me everything on my family. Put yourself into our shoes


    for a moment. If you have a brother as outstanding as Wilson, would you allow him to marry someone


    like you?


    "Don''t try to deny it. Your past rtionship with Ken is public knowledge now. Don''t tell me, you are still


    a virgin? A wench like you must have been very eager to sleep with any rich guy who gives you the


    time of the day.


    "For instance, just like how you managed to hook up with my brother. You must be very skilful in bed.


    Even an impressive man like my brother could be enamoured by you.


    "However, let me tell you this, Alina. All your tricks are useless. In the end, my brother will have to


    marry someone like Monica. Justpare yourself to her. In terms of status, you''re amoner while


    Monica is a nobledy from the Adams family. In terms of education, you graduated from a no-name


    university, but Monica returned from her studies overseas. Well, in terms of looks, I have to admit that

    you are pretty. However, what''s the use of it? Compared to Monica''s upbringing, the difference


    between the both of you is like night and day.


    "The most important thing is that if my brother marries Monica, no one will be able to threaten his


    position as the president of Scott Group. If he marries you, God knows what would happen."


    Alina interrupted her, "Your brother is Wilson Scott. He doesn''t need a marriage of convenience to


    strengthen his position. Furthermore, he is not worried about anyone elsepeting with him for the


    position as president of Scott Group."


    "Alina, you''ve read too many fairy tales, haven''t you? I''m going to die fromughter!" Silviaughed


    mockingly.


    At this moment, Monica came over with a smile on her face. "Silvia, Alina. What are the both of you


    talking about? You sound so happy!"


    Silvia red angrily at Alina and wrapped her arm around Monica''s. As they walked towards the dining


    hall, Silvia gushed, "Monica, you must stay with the Scott Family for a little longer. My mom and I like


    having you around very much."


    Alina took a deep breath, retrieved a small mirror from her bag, and checked the wound on her


    forehead.


    Although the wound was superficial, it wasn''t pretty to look at. Alina quickly covered her forehead with


    her fringe so that Lincoln wouldn''t notice the wound.


    In the afternoon, Wilson suddenly returned home and caught Silvia by surprise.


    While Wilson was away, she framed Alina for stealing the ne, drugged her withxatives, and


    tripped Alina up. Initially, Silvia wasn''t scared at all, but when her brother returned home, she started


    worrying about whether Alina would tattle on her to Wilson. Silvia looked for any sign of Alina around,


    but she wasn''t. Silvia patted her chest, secretly relieved.


    She put on a sweet smile, took Wilson by the arm, and said coquettishly, "Wilson, you''re finally back.


    Did you bring me a gift?"


    "No!" Wilson reached out and flicked her forehead.


    "Ouch, it hurts!" She held her sore forehead in her hands.


    "Tell me, did you bully Alina when I''m away?" Wilson asked.


    Silvia rolled her eyes. D*mn it, she didn''t know whether Alina had called Wilson prior to this and


    called Alina a b*tch, Silvia became indignant.


    However, it seemed like she did notin. Wilson''s expression seemed too easygoing for that to be


    true.


    Hence, she summoned up her courage and shook her head. "No, absolutely not! How could I bully


    her? She follows after Grandfather all the time. You can''t imagine how protective Grandfather is of


    her!"


    Hearing this, Wilson lifted the corners of his lips.


    Then he remembered what Jayden had told him about the ne, and his face turned cold. "What''s


    going on with the lost ne?"


    Silvia was annoyed when Wilson mentioned the ne. At that moment, she had no qualms about


    losing her pocket money and said without hesitation, "Oh, seems like someone hadined about


    this to you first. That day, Mother invited Alina to tea. However, she stole Mother''s ne. What the


    hell, she must have been a habitual thief."


    Wilson frowned. "Mother invited her to have tea?" This was really strange. How could he not know what


    his mother was like?


    Silvia nodded vigorously. "That''s right! We used to think that her family was just a little poor, but who


    knew that she was such a person?"


    "What kind of person?" Wilson became more and more displeased.


    "Do I have to say it so clearly? If you insist, I''ll oblige. Alina is nothing but a thief!"


    "Shut up!" Wilson rebuked her.


    Silvia pouted in grievance. "Wilson, you were the one who forced me to say it."


    Wilson stared coldly into Silvia''s eyes. Goosebumps emerged all over her body as Silvia shivered


    guiltily.


    "Mom deliberately invited Alina to have tea and then framed her for stealing the ne?" Wilson''s


    eyes were as sharp as a sword.


    Silvia didn''t dare to meet his gaze and tly denied it. "No, she was the one who stole the ne.


    We found the ne in her pocket. If she didn''t steal it, how could the ne be in her pocket?


    Wilson, you can''t put the me on Mother and me just because you are in love with her. We are the


    closest people to you!"


    Wilson''s voice was emotionless as he asked further, "Did you put the ne in her pocket?"


    Silvia hadn''t expected Wilson to use them of framing Alina. She cursed and said with a slip of her


    tongue, "Did that b*tch, Alina, tell you about this? She stole the ne and did such a shameful


    thing. How dare she talk nonsense?"


    "Silvia, tell me the truth! Otherwise, I''ll send you away to military school," Wilson warned her.


    When she heard Wilson''s threat, Silvia didn''t dare to continue lying. She shrank back and admitted,


    "Alright, alright! I''m the one who put the ne in her pocket. You knew that neither Mother nor I


    liked her, but you insisted on letting her live in the Scott Family vi. I really don''t understand why you


    love her so much. Look at her disagreeable face! She looks so bitter and resentful whenever she''s


    around us as if we owed her millions of dors!"


    "All of you are judging her through the lens of prejudice. Regardless of whether it was deliberate or


    unintentional, you are making things difficult for her. Should she put herself down or act like a doormat


    for all of you?" Wilson did not agree with what Silvia said. On the contrary, he looked up to Alina for


    having the guts to face his mother and sister alone, without belittling herself.


    Then, he signaled for Silvia to continue.


    She gritted her teeth and said, "You know that we won''t allow you to marry Alina. That''s why we came


    up with this idea. We intended for her to back out from the marriage, but who knew that she would be


    so thick-skinned?"


    "Shut up! In addition to framing Lina for stealing the ne, what else did you do to her?" Wilson


    stared coldly into Silvia''s eyes. Since she was his sister, he knew her personality inside out.


    Silvia started feeling guilty again. She rolled her eyes and thought, "That b*tch, Alina must have told


    Wilson everything in retaliation. That''s why he came to interrogate me. What the hell, I''ll just confess to


    everything. Why should I be afraid? This is my brother who has loved me since I was a child. How


    could I be inferior in Wilson''s eyespared to an outsider?"


    When she thought of this, Silvia confessed everything she had done to Alina. "I drugged Alina''s tea


    withxatives every day to make her feel sick.  This morning, I tripped her up and she hurt her


    forehead."


    Wilson frowned and asked coldly, "What else?"


    He really didn''t expect while he was away, Silvia was up to so much mischief. This girl needed to be


    taught a lesson.


    In addition, Lina, that stupid woman also needed a lesson. Her messages said nothing but the positive


    aspects of her day, which made him believe nothing else happened except for the incident of the stolen


    ne.


    Silvia became irritable at her brother''s question. Sheined loudly, "No, no! I didn''t do anything


    else. Don''t listen to Alina''s nonsense."


    As Silvia spoke, she straightened her back and gritted her teeth. "I, Silvia, would take responsibility for


    everything I did. I only did these three things and nothing else. Oh, in addition, I told Monica that I


    wanted her to be my sister-inw. That doesn''t count, right? I didn''t hurt Alina directly in any way."


    Wilson had already strode away.


    Silvia shouted behind him, "I really didn''t do anything else! Wilson, are you possessed? How could you


    believe an outsider rather than your own sister?"


    When Wilson disappeared in the distance, Silvia kicked the stones on the pavement angrily. "Alina is


    such a tattletale, snitching on me to Wilson. So what if I bullied her? At most, I just don''t have any


    pocket money. Next time, I''ll continue bullying her!"


    Alina emerged from the bookstore with a stack of books in her arms. When she noticed a familiar car


    parked by the roadside, she ran over with excitement. The window scrolled down and Wilson''s


    expressionless face appeared, looking at Alina with a stern gaze.


    Her smile instantly froze on her face. Alina greeted him hesitantly, "Scumbag!"


    Did something happen? Why was his face so cold?


    "Get in the car!" Wilson ordered bluntly.


    "Alright," Alina answered obediently, opened the door to the passenger seat, and got in the car.


    She reached out to fasten her seatbelt but when she was about to buckle up, Wilson had already


    leaned over to help her.


    Wilson drove the car wordlessly to the entrance of Lanthem Hospital and stopped.


    Alina frowned. What was wrong with Wilson? Could it be that he was jealous of Michael?


    She had been so busy recently that she hadn''te to visit Michael for several days.


    Just as she was about to exin, Wilson turned around and pulled her into his embrace. He whispered


    in her ear, "Lina, I''m sorry!"


    A while ago, Wilson was furious because Alina did not know how to protect herself. He was angry that


    she kept all her hardships to herself and bore the burden alone.


    But after seeing her just now, how could he still be angry? It had only been a few days since hest


    saw her, but she appeared thinner and the circles around her eyes were darker.


    The reason why Alina became like this was because of the harm his mother and sister had done to her


    while he was away.


    "What''s wrong?" Alina looked uneasy because of Wilson''s sudden apology.


    When he saw her worried expression, Wilson''s heart ached again. He said softly, "Come on, let''s see a


    doctor!"


    "Why do I have to see a doctor? I''m fine!"


    "Get out of the car first!"


    Alina obediently obliged and got off.


    Wilson had already circled around the car and grabbed Alina''s hand tightly. Hand in hand, they walked


    towards the doors of Lanthem Hospital.


    When they entered the hospital building, Wilson said, "I''m sorry for everything you have been through


    while I''m away!"


    A wave of sadness rose up within Alina and she quicklyposed herself. As long as they both loved


    each other, this grievance was nothing she couldn''t bear.


    She turned to Wilson with a sweet and sunny smile. "You don''t have to be sorry, I don''t feel aggrieved


    at all. Keeping Grandfatherpany in the evening while he practices his calligraphy makes me feel


    very happy. In the morning, I''m busy drafting up design ns, reading, and registering mypany. It''s


    very fulfilling and satisfying!"


    Alina didn''t want to let Wilson know about the puzzle she was doing for him. It was close topletion


    and she wanted it to be a surprise!
