A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 267

"You and Justin..."

"Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what I said just now? Justin was drunk just now, so I let him soak in the cold water to sober up. Do you think I would do something to my brother-in-law? Justin is Edward's biological brother. No matter what, I will never have a love affair with my brother- in- law." I looked at Miriam and chuckled.

Since Miriam insisted on slandering me and Justin, I wouldn't let her succeed.

Miriam's face froze, and those reporters were shocked. Then they said with excitement, "Mrs. Xi, is that true? Is Justin really Edward's biological brother?"

"Yes. Justin is Edward's twin brother, he was taken away when he was young. We didn't know it until a few days ago."

I looked at those reporters sincerely.

Soon, those reporters surrounded Justin.

Justin looked at me with his face darkened.

"Justin, tell them about the relationship between you and Edward."

I said to Justin mischievously.

No matter what, the fact that Justin was Edward's twin brother couldn't be changed. Although I didn't know what happened when they were young, I hoped that they could get along with each other as ordinary brothers. Therefore, it was reasonable for their relationship to be exposed.

After knowing that Justin was Edward's twin brother, those reporters didn't pay attention to me anymore. Instead, they asked Justin about the relationship between him and Edward.

I was pushed to the door and happened to bump into Miriam.

Miriam looked at me mockingly and said meaningfully, "Ashley, I really underestimated you."

"I overestimated you, too." I looked at Miriam with a sneer.

I was no longer the naive Ashley I used to be, there was no way for her to ruin me with such despicable means.

"However, our battle hasn't started yet, Ashley."

Miriam said this and left.

Looking at her back, my face darkened.

Miriam was a woman who could not be underestimated. I must be careful.

"What happened between you and Justin?"

I really met a few challenges at the press conference. On the way we went back, Edward grabbed my hand and asked me with a cold face.

When those reporters were questioning me, Edward did not come to find me immediately. I knew that it was because he believed that I could handle it.

But he was still unhappy.

"What do you think?" I came close to Edward and bit his chin.

"Did he kiss you?" Edward narrowed his eyes and held my chin. There was a hint of displeasure on his handsome face.

"Yes, but I slapped him in the face," I replied honestly.

Edward's face immediately darkened. He looked very unhappy.

"But he still kissed you." Edward stared at my lips with jealousy.

I looked at Edward with some amusement, then touched his face and said in a frivolous tone, "G.M.Xi, you're so jealous."

"Humph, don't get close to that b*stard in the future!"

"He's your brother." I glanced at Edward and said helplessly.

"Even he himself doesn't want to admit that he is a member of the Xis." Edward snorted and bit hard on my lips.

"Edward... Why didn't Justin grow up in the Xis? I had never heard that there were two children in the Xis. I thought you were the only child."

Being bitten by Edward, my lips were numb. I gently pushed his body and asked.

Hearing this, Edward held my waist tighter and tighter, but he didn't answer me.

"What's wrong? Can't you tell me?" I asked Edward before, but he didn't answer me either.

Was this very important to the Xis? Or was this a secret of the Xis?

"I don't know, either, but I asked the old servant who used to be in the Xis. They said that because of Justin's eyes, he was thrown out by my greatgrandfather."

Throw out?

Just because of Justin's rare green eyes?

"My great- grandfather is a very superstitious person, and he is very dictatorial."

"Is he the founder of the Xis?"

I had heard of something about Edward's greatgrandfather before. It was said that he was a powerful man. Even when he was old, he was still very vigorous and took charge of the whole Xis.

Even Gramps Xi had to do everything as he said. He seemed to have lived for more than a hundred years.

"Justin is so pitiful." No wonder that Justin hated the Xis so much.

"The person who took Justin away at that time was one of my grandpa's trusted followers. Grandpa didn't want to abandon Justin, but he couldn't go against his father's wishes. So he only let his trusted follower take Justin away. However, that person had concealed intentions. He raised Justin and wanted to use him to deal with the Xis, but he didn't expect that Justin had no interest in taking revenge."

After hearing Edward's explanation, I sighed.

However, Justin achieved his achievements by himself. "Someone drugged Justin today."

I looked at Edward and said.

"Justin is not a fool to be used by others. If someone dares drug him, he will kill that person."

Edward sneered, touched my eyelids, and said ambiguously.

Looking at his actions, I felt so sad.

When would he treat me like this? Every time he saw me, his face was full of disgust and unhappiness, and he even called me a bad woman.

I knew that Ashe just couldn't accept me for the time being. But he used to like me so much. At the thought of this, I felt painful in my heart.

"Why does Ashe refuse to eat again?"

Ethel glanced at me and picked Ashe up as if she was provoking me.

I said coldly with my face darkened, "Since you're the only one who can let Ashe eat, take good care of him."

Ethel's face looked a little unhappy.

I took Cornelia's hand and walked to the door. After a few steps, I looked back at Ethel and said, "Ethel, I know that you have done something, I don't say it, but it doesn't mean that I don't know. You'd better behave yourself and don't provoke me."

After saying that, I left without looking at her stiff face.

I went to see Scott with Cornelia. Scott was taken care of every day by the special medical team.

Scott still didn't want to wake up.

But I believed that she would wake up one day.

I sat by the bed, held a soft and clean towel and gently wiped her fingers.

"Mom, Ashe has always been unwilling to forgive me, and I don't know what to do. If you wake up, you can definitely help me, right?"

I looked at Scott's beautiful face with tears in my eyes.

She was really beautiful and elegant. Although she was middle-aged, she was charming. Some people would become more and more charming as they got older. Scott was one of them.

"Mom, you have to wake up. I have been waiting for you to wake up, and so did dad. You can't abandon dad and me. No matter what happened, dad won't..."

"Sunny..."

When I was talking with Scott, Cornelia ran in from the outside. I was scared by her sudden excitement. I looked back and asked, " Cornelia, what are you doing? You scared me."

"Stewart said that your father has woken up."

Boom!

Cornelia's words shocked me. I looked at her in disbelief.

Did she say that my father had already woken up?

"It's true. Let's go to the hospital quickly."

Cornelia walked to me, grabbed my arm, and said.

I came to sense and looked back at Scott who was lying quietly on the bed, then burst into tears.
