But it’s just that there’s no way to say it.
She has no evidence, no standing in this family, no one trusts her. Even if she speaks, it’s only inviting trouble and disappointment.
Aiden sighed heavily and sank into the sofa.
After a long time, he spoke to Koa Jackson, "Let’s do as you suggest, detain her. Our Ginger Family doesn’t have such a daughter. Even if she’s my own daughter, having done something , I will not be lenient."
Charlotte suddenly lifted her head to look at him.
Then she glanced at Zuri and didn’t say a word for a long time.
She was selfish and eager for her own gain, yet she never had the intention of harming others.
The things Zuri had done had already surpassed her tolerance, especially when Zuri had once involved her in the chaos, how could she not be angry?
Koa Jackson is already in control over Mia Ginger.
Pleading wouldn’t help; it’s better to save her breath.
Charlotte remained silent. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel⚑fire.net
Zuri looked at her and instantly understood the thoughts in her heart, making her feel chilled.
Her gaze slowly moved towards the others.
Koa’s expression was extremely cold, without a hint of pity or sympathy.
Mia also looked at her with clear, pure eyes, expressionless, as if she couldn’t even muster a hint of ridicule for her.
Aiden’s face was dark with anger.
Bob’s face flushed red, the tears from moments ago receding, and when he saw her looking at him, he even turned his head in another direction.
Nanny Adams and Sage had never been on her side.
Such a big family, so many people, yet at this moment, there wasn’t a single person speaking up for her.
Zuri leaned on one arm, kneeling on the ground, and for the first time, felt the taste of isolation and helplessness.
How familiar this scene was!
Just like the time Charlotte lost the Jade Bracelet.
Mia stood opposite the crowd, questioned and forced, isolated and helpless.
The situation was almost identical, except the protagonist of the scene had become herself.
She’d been in this family for nearly twenty years but couldn’t compare to Mia even after a few months back.
How could she be reconciled?
All of this was originally hers; if it weren’t for Mia, everyone in this hall right now would have been hers.
They belonged to her, were leaning towards her, were pampering her—should be!
Why did she have to come back?!
Why did that bitch Mia have to come back?!
How did those men handle things,
It’d be best if like her classmate, they just died directly!
Lydia Williams is useless as well!
Since they could discreetly and unknowingly kill the girl from Eastern Peak Village to vent frustration, why couldn’t they discreetly and unknowingly destroy Mia?
With things coming to this point, what should she do?
Zuri panicked entirely, lost in thought, and upon recalling Aiden’s words, she felt as if the world had collapsed.
She cannot go to prison.
If she ends up there, her life is over.
Can’t admit, can’t admit anything, absolutely can’t!
Zuri thought frantically, abandoning her image and crawled directly to Aiden, crying, "Dad, I was wrong, I truly know I was wrong. But I’m not that bad, I’m really not that bad, on the birthday party I only wanted Mia to be embarrassed, I never wanted to ruin her reputation, I genuinely didn’t. This time was also a moment of foolishness, knowing she was like Wine, my brother liked her so much, I just got jealous, and thought of finding some people to teach her a lesson only. Really just a lesson, nothing more, I didn’t let them do anything else, really nothing, you have to trust me, please trust me, don’t send me to prison! Dad, I beg you! I can’t go to prison! Can’t go to prison! I am your daughter, if I go to prison it won’t look good on you either, it won’t look good on the Ginger Family, I beg you dad, don’t let me go to prison!"
