    Chapter 408


    Adina’s heart was filled with excitement, but that excitement onlysted for a second before it quickly


    disappeared.


    She pursed her lips and pulled the ss door open to enter herpany. “Hold on,” Aaron said with a


    cold and angry demeanor. Adina did not stop moving. She really had a meeting to attend, so she did


    not have time to waste there. “I raised you for eighteen years. Shouldn’t you repay me for my parenting


    and kindness throughout those eighteen years?” When Adina heard Aaron’s words, she suddenly


    chuckled from anger.


    She held the doorknob of the ss door, then turned around and said, “Parents have a legal obligation


    to support their children, and children have an obligation to support their parents. I can financially


    support you, but I don’t have an obligation to get Dew out of prison.” He actually wanted to guilt trip her


    with his eighteen years of so-called parenting. It was hrious.


    “If you were my biological daughter, it would be my duty to raise you for eighteen years, but …” Aaron


    raised his head, and his gaze was profound. “You’re not my daughter, but I still raised you for eighteen


    years. Shouldn’t you repay me for the kindness you received in the past? I don’t have any other


    requests either. As long as you get Dew out of prison, we’ll call it


    even.”


    Adina felt like she had been struck by lightning.


    The Daugherty family had been extremely cruel to her over the past five years, but she had been


    happy in the eighteen years before that. She might havee up with that guess over the recent


    years, but she had been filled with grief and resentment. She never thought that she was not a member


    of the Daugherty family Then again, if Aaron was truly her father, would a father be that cruel to his


    biological daughter? She should have expected this.


    Adina removed her fingers from the doorknob and gradually snapped out of her daze.


    Ruby suddenly saw a sliver of hope. She gritted her teeth and said, “Yes, Adina. You’re not part of the


    Daugherty family’s bloodline. Our family supported your living expenses and studies for righteen years.


    Don’t you n on repaying our kindness?”


    Adina smiled Saintly and scoffed. “Is it really as you say? I don’t believe you.”


    “When your mother was young, a lot of men courted her. Who would have known that she would sleep


    around with someonic and get pregnant? She went around searching for someone in marry lwt, wat


    found Anrun!” Ruby wore a cold and menacing, smile as she said, “She We pregant with any


    illegitimairchild, so she couldn’t just marry anyone. Therefore, slie had 10 marry Aaron who had nothing


    at that time Do you really think you’re ady in the 1)4150Hirty 1. ly’ Yuli’re just tegematachille ”


    p!


    Adina raised her hand and gave her a strong p


    Ruby widened her eyes with fury. “How dare you p me?! Who gave you the audacity?! You actually


    pped me!”


    She covered her face and wanted to rush over to p Adina back


    Adina twisted her wrist before she ruthlessly swung her away “If you dare to insult my mother again, I’ll


    break your hand. If you don’t believe me, you can give it a try.”Content held by N?velDrama.Org.


    Ruby’s face had been smacked, so she was in great pain. Her wrist had also been twisted and nearly


    broken. It hurt so much that her facial features were distorted.


    She cried and yelled, “Aaron, look at the ‘good daughter’ whom you insisted on raising. This is how she


    treats me! When she was first born, you should’ve sent her to the orphanage. She caused our only


    daughter to be imprisoned. We only have Dew, our only daughter. She’s in prison now What should we


    do?”
