Jean got up from the ground with a glimmer of hope in his eyes. “That’s right... Arianne still has the money and house in her hand. Those add up to about three million dollars, which will be enough to last us for a while! Let’s go find her!”
After doing some investigating, Aery learned that Arianne had been hospitalized since last night. She stormed to the hospital, only to be stopped by the bodyguards at the door. By now, she no longer cared about keeping up her image as a lady from a wealthy family. “Let me in! Let me find that bitch!”
Mary heard the commotion outside the ward. Her face sank as soon as she went out. “Why are you here?”
Aery tried her best to stand on her toes to catch a glimpse inside the ward. “Arianne is in there, right? Let me in! I have an urgent matter!”
Aery looked more like she was here to kill instead of looking for someone. Naturally, Mary wouldn’t allow her to pass. “Miss Kinsey, our madam isn’t well enough to receive guests. Please leave or I’ll have to take action against you if you continue making a commotion here.”
Aery flung her hand at Mary’s face, instantly leaving bloody claw marks on her face. “Scram! You’re just a dog for the Tremont family!” Aery shouted at her like a madwoman.
Mary covered her cheek with one hand and trembled with anger. “Get this woman out of here! I’ll call sir.”
At Mary’s order, the two bodyguards immediately took Aery away and kicked her out of the hospital.
Mary wasn’t going to take this lying down. She called Mark and cried to him, “Sir, Aery Kinsey just came to the hospital and caused a commotion! She even scratched my face like a madwoman! How could madam rest with all this noises? Although I’ve sent her away already, I’m not sure if she’s coming back again.”
Mark was in a meeting at the moment. He maintained the gentle smile on his face in front of his subordinates, but his eyes had turned frosty. “Alright, I’ll take care of it. Don’t worry. Just look after her well.” People who didn’t know better would think that he had just answered an ordinary phone call.
“I’m warning you now, I’m capable of doing worse things if you insist on finding trouble with her again. She was admitted into the hospital for her second miscarriage. Due to the damage caused by her first miscarriage, she will never be able to have her own child. This is all thanks to you, and it’s also the reason why I have withdrawn the funding. I’m only sparing you because you are her younger sister. You should know your limits.”
Aery took two steps back involuntarily. “Mark dear… this isn’t true, right? You’re just lying to me… You clearly told me that you liked me. Besides... I only went looking for her to take back the money and house. The assets that my mom got after the divorce belong to the Kinsey family. She has no right to keep them. I was only going to take them back. I never planned on doing anything to her… Her first miscarriage was an accident. I was only going to teach her a lesson out of anger because I saw her with Will Sivan. I felt bad for you! I didn’t even know she was pregnant! You can’t blame that on me!”
Irritated by the noise, Mark lit another cigarette in annoyance. “Don’t use me as an excuse. You did that only because you wanted to. The assets that your mother received after the divorce no longer belong to the Kinsey family. Are you still a kid? You can’t even understand that? Since she gave them to Arianne, then they belong to Arianne now. Alright, I’ve said enough. You better not go looking for her again.”
Mark obviously didn’t want to say more than that. Aery was a little unsteady on her feet while she was drowning in the sea of emotions. Soon after that, she growled, “So… you were really only using me? Is that why you never wanted to touch me? I see now… You can easily crush the Kinsey family with just a lift of your finger. I’m not willing to accept that I’m just a pawn to you. Why did that bitch get everything? I’ve lost everything now, but I’m not afraid anymore. I’ll never let her off the hook!”
