Chapter 114
“Then I’ll trouble you to get out of the Rowan’s mansion with your daughter and grandchildren” Eli retorted back to Mia. He was really getting upset.
The truth was that he doesn’t want Aurora to get along or back with Santiago. A lieutenant friend of his had asked him about his beautiful niece that had become the young CEO of the Starlight holding.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
He had told him that he has a crush on her and would want to be engaged to her soon. He was happy and promised to match-make them together.
That weekend, Roland was supposed to come over to the Rowan mansion to officially make his intentions known to the entire family only for him to hear that Santiago Axel came to the Rowan’s Mansion and was welcomed by all.
If everyone was happy with Santiago Axel, it then Implies that Roland has no chance to be with Aurora.
“Eli !” Luke Rowan frowned. He’s become unhappy with his younger son’s utterance. Eli had gone the extreme by asking his sister to leave the house. He stared at him angrily.
“You can’t be rude to your sister Eli ” Madam Rowan reprimanded him. He shouldn’t go blunt with his elder sister like that.
“Apologies to your sister now!” Luke Rowan ordered. But Eli only gave a wryly smile before objecting. “I will not father. I have made my intentions clear that if that rascal comes into this mansion again, I will kill him.
And if Mia objected to my opinion on the basis that she and her daughter live here and for that reason, that rascal will keep coming here, then the best way to avoid his untimely death is for her to leave accompanied by Aurora and her kids” Eli declared.
“Uncle, I have been quiet and listened to you talking nonsense. If you have anything to say, direct them to me but don’t use rude words on my mother. I will not tolerate it” Aurora voiced out. She can’t stand her mother being rudely molested by her brother because of her.
“Who gave you the effrontery to talk back to me? I risked everything to save you and your stupid illegitimate pregnancy. I have you brought to St Petersburg.
This is not your real home, you go and find your father. This is your maternal home and you bear your maternal surname. So I expect you to leave with your mother and your illegitimate children just like you were an illegitimate…..”
“Enough!” “Eli !” Both Luke and Mile Rowan raised their voices at the same time. Mile couldn’t contain his displeasure as he slapped Eli across the face.
Lisa raised her teary face and stared at her husband. He’d never been so madly rude or mannerless for as long as she had known him.
He can be upset and do or say silly things when he is angry but never had she thought he would insult his sister this much. And besides, Eli really loves Aurora. Why would he say Such horrible words at her?
Nancy opened her mouth agape. Is this Eli ? what had come over him? When had he become so loose and senseless with his tongue?
Mia stared at Eli . She had never thought that a day would come when Eli would insult her like this. He had helped to bring Aurora back to her and to her family, he had made a lot of sacrifices and even risked his life to do it.
But she would never have believed that he would use her past against her and even make Aurora feel inferior. He had really made her ashamed before the entire family and humiliated Aurora as well.
She turned and glanced at Aurora as everyone else also did and saw her tears, it was flowing down her cheeks. She stood there at a spot like a statue, unmoving. When she saw Aurora’s tears, her own tears gave way. She blinked her eyes to restrained the tears and sniffled but the tears seemed uncontrollable.
Aurora locked eyes with her before turning gently, going upstairs. The atmosphere became stiff. No one said anything, no one had anything to say to her wounded heart. They just watched her take those heavy steps to her room.
Aurora got to her room and without sitting, took some clothes and stuffed them into a Suitcase. She took her toiletries as well. She went out and got into her kid’s room. The nanny was reading out a poem to them.
She politely dismissed her and took a few of her children’s clothes in a Suitcase. Dressing up quickly, she led them out into her room to pick her own Suitcase.
Eli seemed to realize he had talked too much. He regretted it as soon as Mile slapped him. He became remorseful. His anger and displeasure were heavier than what he felt his family had done wrong. His anger and words were not justifiable.
His fierce look became softened suddenly as if a chilled water was poured on his face. He looked at his sister Mia and wanted to apologize, but the latter had turned and made her way towards the staircase.
Aurora had called a servant and had her take the two Suitcases downstairs and she held her kids each on her sides and went downstairs. She met with her mother Mia midway, and Mia shivered at the sight of Aurora’s leaving.
Aurora only glanced at her mother and walked past her. The servant was following behind with the Suitcases. Mia started shivering, Aurora was leaving and she even snubbed her?
Eli and others saw Aurora’s attitude to her mother and knew a rift was about to be created. Aurora walked down the stairs and without a word, passed by everyone quietly and was heading toward the open door when she heard:
