Chapter 124 The Reasons For Resenting Adeline
"Yeah, I really want to know! Since I was little, I''ve always dreamed of knowing whether I''m truly
your biological daughter!"
Adeline clenched her fist tightly with her nails digging into her palm as she desperately held back
tears in front of Edith.
Edith''s eyes held a distinct undertone of hatred as she took a few steps closer.
"Well, then I''ll be straight with you. Yes, I hate you! When I was carrying your three brothers and
even when I was carrying Vi, I didn''t feel this burden."
"Only you! You, the bringer of bad luck, made my pregnancy so difficult."
"After giving birth to three sons in a row, I wished for a daughter. You have no idea how ted your
father and I were when we found out your gender."
"Back then, I was newly pregnant and suffered from constant nausea, even vomiting bile. Yet, I was
still happy."
"My mother-inw consulted a fortune teller who said your conception was ill-timed, that you were
cursed and would bring cmity upon our family. I didn''t believe it, and I was determined to give
birth to you."

"But, fate had other ns. Not long after, at the seventh months, we discovered that you were
growing alongside a uterine fibroid. You and the fibroid grew together."
Edith recalled the past and took a painful breath.
Olivia interjected upon hearing this and objected repeatedly, "But this can''t really be Adeline''s fault!"
"And why shouldn''t we me her?" Edith''s voice grew more intense.
"The doctor said it was her leg thatpressed the fibroid, preventing the ultrasound from detecting
it. It was her pressure that stimted the fibroid to grow uncontrobly. Throughout the pregnancy,
while others had morning sickness for three months, I was sick until giving birth. I was unable to get
out of bed, worrying daily about the fibroid rupturing."
"Adeline, I resent you! Honestly, with a child who had caused so much trouble like you, I couldn''t
really have any positive feelings towards you. Finally, when the day came to give birth and have the
surgery to remove the fibroid, I ended up hemorrhaging. Family matters went awry due to a
business deal gone wrong, and they had to rush to thepany. I was left alone with just the driver
at the entire hospital. They even issued a critical condition notice, but there was no one around to
sign it. Whose doing is all of this?"
Speaking about the incident, Edith pointed sharply at Adeline, "It''s you! It''s all because of you! If you
weren''t cursed, I wouldn''t have developed fibroids when carrying you! If it weren''t for you, on the
day of delivery, my family wouldn''t have been away, dealing with thepany going bankrupt! It''s
you, it''s you, all because of you!"
Edith''s furious rant left her short of breath. After taking a deep breath, she continued, "Honestly,
because of you, I don''t dare to have more children. So when Vi was supposed toe, I
considered getting rid of her. I even had your grandma consult a fortune teller, and she said Vi
would bring us good luck. I was skeptical but decided to keep her. But I never expected the entire
pregnancy to be unbelievably smooth. I didn''t vomit once, and I could even go on trips with my
friends. On the day of birth, not only was there no trouble, but thepany also got a huge order.
So until now, I''ve felt guilty towards Vi. I actually contemted getting rid of her! And all of this is
because of you, Adeline. Do you dare to say it''s not your fault?"
Adeline smirked sarcastically, and felt a heavy lump in her chest. But, she couldn''t utter a single
word.
She wanted to say it wasn''t her fault!
What did any of this have to do with her?
She didn''t believe in any of this superstitious nonsense!
But the coincidences were toopelling for her to argue against.
Seeing her struggle to respond, Edith took a couple of steps closer.
"You''re asking if I''ve ever thought about what would happen to you? What could even happen to
you, huh?"
"Even the fortune teller said, you''re never going to have good luck in this lifetime! You''re destined to
be unlucky forever, to lead a miserable and solitary life till the end!"
"With a fate like yours, what could I possibly consider for you? I definitely had to think about Vi
first!"
After a prolonged silence, Adeline finally took a deep breath. It was as if she had reached a
decision, and she began to speak slowly.
