Chapter 175 Arisaema Erubescens


    Chapter 175 Arisaema Erubescens


    Amanda wiped her tears and said regretfully, "Aurora, you should''ve given Madelyn a bigger dose of


    drug and let her have a miscarriage before the bitch Charlotte was born!"


    Aurora''s face turned pale, and she signaled the maid Sophia, who immediately approached


    Helena and suggested, "Ms. Cash, would you like to freshen up a bit? You don''t lookfortable


    like this, do you?"


    Helena looked like a mess, so she didn''t refuse and followed Sophia out of the room.


    Aurora quickly grasped Amanda''s hand and said in a low voice, "Amanda, don’t say such


    things again."


    Amanda retorted, "Why can''t I say it? Madelyn has been dead for eight years! Ultimately, it''s


    because you were too soft-hearted. If you had acted decisively back then and forced her to take


    that medicine, she would surely have had an abortion. Charlotte would have been stillborn, and it


    would have been even better if Madelyn had died as well!"


    Auora thought inwardly, "I dreamed to kill both Madelyn and Charlotte at one time without doubt, but


    Madelyn is not an easy woman."


    "...I simply couldn''t bring myself to do it," Aurora said, "Even though Jonathan betrayed me, the


    child Madelyn carried was still Jonathan''s. I couldn''t do that."


    Amanda sighed, "Look at where your mercy got us! I regretted it so much! Why did that drug only


    lead to Madelyn having a pre-termbor and worsened her health condition... It would have been


    better if they''d both be dead!" N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    Aurora patted her back andforted her, "Let''s not dwell on the past. Think about Helena...In my


    opinion, why not take Helena to her father? There are plenty of hospitals there too. Get Helena a


    job there and ask her to wait for things to cool down before returning to Seyso."


    Amanda replied, "I''m worried Helena might not agree to leave..."


    ...


    Nelson broke the pen in his hand, which startled Waylon.


    With a poker face, Nelson asked, "What else did they say?"


    "They didn''t reveal many more details, but I followed up on the information and dug it up," Waylon


    said, "Back then, Madelyn returned from abroad when she was three months pregnant. She found


    Jonathan, and he was supporting her and her child. However, secrets can never stay secrets.


    Aurora found out about Madelyn when she was seven months pregnant. She, along with her sister,


    Amanda, went to Madelyn''s temporary residence and forced her to take abortion pills. As a result,


    Ms. Lopez was born premature and very weak. If not for Mr. Moore''s remarkable medical skills, Ms.


    Lopez might not have survived...Madelyn had health issues, and the abortion medicine, which


    contained Arisaema Erubescens, interacted with her prescribed medication and nearly killed her.


    Though she stayed alive, her health deteriorated day by day."


    Nelson paused and asked, "So you meant to say that Aurora caused Lottie''s premature birth and


    Madelyn''s death?"


    Waylon lowered his head and replied, "That''s correct."


    Nelson''s face turned cold and gloomy.


    Waylon inquired, "Do you want me to..."


    "No need," Nelson interrupted, "just tell Charlotte everything."


    Waylon looked puzzled and asked, "Why would you want Ms. Lopez to know? Won''t this just make


    her sad?"


    Nelson tossed the broken pen into the trash can and replied calmly, "I want to see how much she


    could take."


    ...


    Charlotte had a horseback riding ss today.


    Charlotte wasn''t skilled at horseback riding, but she had taken a lesson before. She could now sit


    on the back of a pony and got the pony to walk around for two loops. When Cecilia riding on her


    horse passed by, she taunted, "Charlotte, are you taking your horse for a leisurely walk?"


    Charlotte pouted, "I just don''t want my horse to get too tired."


    The school provided every student with a horse, and Charlotte was assigned a gentle, chestnut-


    colored pony. However, she didn’t dare to let the horse run as wildly as Cecilia did.


    Cecilia clicked her tongue, and gracefully dismounted, which left many onlookers in awe.


    She tugged on the reins of Charlotte and mounted the horse behind Charlotte before she could


    react. Firmly holding the reins, she took control of the horse and said, "I''ll take you for a ride. You''ll


    fall in love with the sense of freedom."


    Charlotte screamed, "I...!"


    Ignoring her protests, Cecilia pulled the reins, prompting the well-trained pony to break into a brisk


    gallop. The sudden eleration in speed made Charlotte scream, and Cecilia mocked, "Why are


    you screaming? You won''t fall off; just keep your eyes open."


    There was a vast grassy field designated for students to enjoy horseback riding at Srnya High


    School. When Charlotte opened her eyes, she saw a lush grasnd and felt the wind brushing her


    face. She heard the wind blowing and smelled grass.


    Seeing the blue sky and green grasnd, Charlotte widened her eyes in wonder and marveled, "It''s


    so beautiful!"


    Cecilia chuckled and replied, "There’s no fun walking the horse slowly. Riding a horse is meant for


    moments like this!"


    "Exactly," Charlotte agreed.


    After twops, Charlotte''s face turned red, and she said, "Cele..."


    "What''s up?"


    "Have you felt... that your legs hurt?"


    Cecilia hesitated for a moment and replied, "Yeah, a bit."


    Charlotte confessed, "I''m in so much pain. Can we take a break?"


    Cecilia was speechless.


    They got off the horse, and Charlotte was relieved. She massaged her legs and eximed, "I''m


    sure I''ve grazed my legs."


    Cecilia asked, "Are you that sensitive?"


    With an innocent look, Charlotte replied, "It genuinely hurts!"


    Cecilia rolled her eyes and said, "You''re like a delicate little flower that can only grow in a


    greenhouse. You cannot live in the grasnds; even a gust of wind could ruffle your petals."


    Charlotte responded, "Well then, I''ll stay away from the grasnds."


    Cecilia turned silent. Actually she got a point.


    ...


    "Mr. rk, what are you staring at?"


    "Nothing." Andrew withdrew his gaze and tugged at the reins, asking, "Why did you guys stop


    ying?"


    A bunch of guys in his ss had organized a horse racingpetition earlier, but Andrew didn’t


    participate.


    One of the guys chimed in, "We''ve wrapped up the race, and Drew Thomas was the winner again. It


    wasn''t very exciting." he paused and asked, "Are thements online that you like the finest girl in


    our campus true?"


    “No,” Andrew remained expressionless as he responded, "I don''t have feelings for her. Don''t spread


    baseless rumors."


    “Alright,” The guy said while scratching his head, " but you can''t deny she''s stunning. I don''t know


    how to use fancy words to describe her, but I just feel she looks like a goddess."


    Andrew added, "A goddess wouldn''t fall in love with mere mortals."


    The guy was left momentarily speechless.


    "Hey, hey, Mr. rk, join us for some fun."


    "Thanks, but I’m not interested."


    The guy said, "Why do I feel like you''ve changed a lot recently? Could you be possessed by a ghost


    or something?"


    Andrew retorted, "Nonsense. There are no such things as ghosts. I''m heading back. Enjoy


    yourselves."


    The guy watched Andrew walk away with a perplexed expression,menting, "...He is like a


    different person; he''s not as approachable as before."
