Chapter 144
Aurora glared at Eve Diego and her mother in utmost contempt. What do they think they were implying? If Caden Diego hadn’t gotten involved with her mother, would he still be seated here and without putting a question mark to why Mia called her his daughter?
But before Aurora could retort at the mother and daughter pair, Caden Diego beat her to it. “Who the hell are you to interfere in matters that happened long before you were born? If I hear another word from you Eve, I will have you trekked all the way home. And you Tola, maybe you do not know, I trust Mia more than I trust you” Caden Diego declared and glared at the duo irritatingly.
Eve Diego said nothing else but Tola felt embarrassed and humiliated at Caden’s words to her. How can he say such nonsense to her before Mia and her daughter? He then implies that he loves Mia and her daughter more.
“Mia, Aurora, I am sorry for what I made you both go through. Especially you Aurora, when everyone despised you and called you the girl from the orphanage I didn’t know you were my daughter, a girl from the Diego family” Caden Diego looked remorseful.
“Mitcheeew” Tola hissed. Meanwhile, she continued “No matter how a swine is bathed and dressed in golden attire, it will always remain a swine!” Tola uttered and eyed Mia and Aurora.
“Tola Diego!!, how dare you compare my daughter to a swine? Are you nuts? Oh, I had thought I would spare you for Caden’s sake but now I will have you and your miserable, vicious daughter face Aurora’s wrath!!” Mia thundered. How dare Tola.
“You think I am a swine and make such an expensive comparison? We will now know who’s best to be described as a swine” Aurora yelled at Tola Diego and dialed a certain person’s number. “Fall in”
Tola and Diego shivered at Mia and Aurora’s last words. Did they have evidence to nail them? Why was she feeling as if she would meet with a disaster soon?
Caden Diego was pleased at Mia and Aurora’s outspokenness. It serves Tola right to be put in check.
No one knows how much he had endured Tola and this unruly daughter of hers, all these years. But now, discovering he has a daughter, a disciplined one at that, he would put them where they rightly belong after all, Aurora was the eldest to Eve.
The door carefully opened and a handcuffed man came in. His head bowed and he looked thin. When Tola and Eve Diego saw him, a terrible cold shiver ran through their spine. They were done for. Larry Tom had been captured by Aurora and her mother?
They both glanced at each other, totally stupefied. Tola Suddenly started sweating, her heart beat had increased. She tried to glance at Mia and saw that the latter was staring at her with hostility in her eyes.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Caden Diego’s eyes were wide open. This is his most trusted bodyguard Larry Tom. He had thought Aurora shot him dead that day at the Axel patriarch’s birthday.
That fury drove him into filling a case of murder against Aurora. When he discovered later that Larry Tom’s body was not found and the ambulance that conveyed them had Suddenly disappeared. Two other bodyguards of his were also shot, he knew something fishy was going on.
Because of the Supposed murder of Larry Tom, he sent his own daughter to Jail unknowingly. Here he is, standing before him alive.
“Larry Tom!!” Caden Diego yelled out his name. The surprises dishing out to him that evening was too much for him to assimilate at a time.
“That’s his real name before Tola and her daughter Eve Diego christened him David Nick” Mia blurted out.
Santiago narrowed his brow. Seemed this Sudden discovery was one of the reasons why he couldn’t find any trace or clue even at the airport about Larry Tom.
He had been quiet for a long time and listened to the Diego’s and the Rowan’s but seeing Larry Tom and hearing what Mia said, he suddenly felt interested in hearing the whole story.
“Darling, I promised to give you a surprise on who poisoned your mother that day. It wasn’t me who poisoned her but guess who? This vicious woman Tola Diego did!!” Aurora declared and stared at Tola in contempt.
Before Santiago could act, Aurora continued “She knew a long time ago that mum was allergic to perfume, especially the one containing balsam. She sent a special flower to mum and sprayed perfume that is highly concentrated with balsam.
When mum received it, she smelled the flower and thereby inhaled the perfume. That was what gave rise to the allergic reaction she felt that day” Aurora explained.
Santiago’s stare became cold, he looked at Tola Diego with a killing intent. She was the one who made his mother Suffered back then? And it was blamed on Aurora. He had sworn to make whoever that person was who tried to hurt his mother pay back for the Suffering she experienced that day. And Tola Diego would definitely pay for what she did.
Caden Eve was shocked at Aurora’s revelation. Was it Tola who caused Palmer to Suffer so much due to allergic reactions? But why would she do that? Was it just to frame Aurora?
