Reborn as the Baby Sister Everyone Spoiled—and the One He Loved
Alora shivered in fear and even let out a crying hiccup. How is it all my fault? Alora quickly waved her hand to defend herself, saying, "It's not like that, Dad. Elaine is making things up. She insisted on forcing Grandma to apologize, which is why Grandma fainted. It's not my fault!" Elaine looked at her calmly and replied, 'Yes, I am partially at fault. But you are the root of the entire situation. My actions were merely a response to what you did in the first place. If you hadn't gone back on your word, would there have been any further issues?" Alora was left speechless by her retort. That wicked woman! Elaine has her own faults, too. Why does she get to act so self-righteously?My biggest mistake is being too impatient. I should have waited for Leonardo to return and let him handle this woman. Right now, Mom and Dad are clearly favoring Elaine, so I can't be too aggressive. Tears immediately streamed from Alora's eyes as she looked at Leon. "Dad, I realize my mistake. It was my fault. I should have given the room to Elaine. I'm sorry, Dad. Please forgive me!" Leon's face turned ashen with anger. "You should indeed give the room to Elaine. Besides, you are not allowed to entertain any thoughts about marrying Terry." "Alright, Dad, I'll do as you said." Alora's lowered gaze was filled with bitter resentment. Why should I give everything to Elaine? So what if Elaine is your biological daughter?I've spent twenty years with you as your daughter, and that should mean more than mere blood ties. Just like Maya said, you guys are heartless, cold-blooded people. Since you don't consider me as your daughter, you are no longer my parents in my heart! I can give up everything, but I will not give up Terry to Elaine! Elaine stared at the woeful-looking Alora with a blank expression. "Have all your things removed from that room by 8 a.m. tomorrow. Otherwise, I will throw everything away." Alora was speechless at her instructions. She bit her lower lip in frustration. I need to have everything moved out by 8 a.m. tomorrow! But there is so much stuff in my room! That d*mn Elaine expects me to move out overnight?Alora felt utterly mistreated. Yet, she knew Leon's heart had entirely turned in Elaine's favor. There was no point in arguing further. She could only nod and say, "I understand." Elaine added, "I've kept my promise by proactively breaking off the engagement with Terry, so you also need to keep your promise." Don't act as if I am actually mistreating you. Alora was shocked by the news Elaine had revealed. She looked up at Elaine in disbelief. "Did you really break off the engagement with Terry?" Elaine replied, "Two hours ago, I broke off the engagement during our meeting at the presidential suite of the Majestic Harbor Hotel, a six-star hotel under Wilson's Group. You can verify it if you want.""No, it's fine." Alora smiled through her tears. Since Elaine was able to provide the time and place details of her meeting with Terry, she must be telling the truth. That is such a great news! All the grievances I endured today were not in vain. I may have given up a room, but Terry is finally all mine! "Elaine!" Leon looked at his beloved daughter with a shocked and resigned expression. He couldn't believe Elaine had gone behind their backs to break off the engagement with Terry! He wanted to scold her for being impulsive but couldn't bring himself to do it. Grasping his arm, Elaine shook her head and signaled him to hold off the discussion.Alora rose from her seat. Faced with Leon's stern expression, she tried hard to mask her joy but couldn't quite manage it. "Elaine, I'm going to pack up my things now. I will return the room to you tomorrow morning." Elaine shot her a cold glance and said nothing. Alora was on cloud nine. After saying her piece, the elated Alora rushed upstairs excitedly. Once in her room, Alora happily threw herself on the bed, rolling around and giggling. She picked up her phone, intending to call Terry right away. But then she remembered that every time she called, Terry was busy, and she wondered if she might be interrupting him again. Besides, she was about to marry him soon, so it might be better to be more reserved. Besides, she was about to marry him soon, so it might be better to be more reserved. That's right, I need to be more reserved. Meanwhile, in the living room, Leon looked at Elaine with a grim expression. Before he could say anything, Elaine took the initiative and asked, "Dad, are you mad because I canceled the engagement with Terry without consulting you?"
