Chapter 1201: 540 Recognizing Each Other (First Update)_4 Chapter 1201: 540 Recognizing Each Other (First Update)_4 Craving infinite love in the finite time I have.
If Aubree’s existence can bring the greatest comfort to her mother, then for the rest of my life, let me be your granddaughter in her place, standing by you forever until the end of time.
She will forever remember this kindness and be grateful for it.
“Grandmother.” She called softly.
The old woman embraced her as if she was a lost treasure finally recovered.
Aubree closed her eyes, gently patting the old woman’s back.
...
With reddened eyes, Peter Aria came over and patted Aubree on the shoulder, “Mother, Aubree won’t leave.
Don’t worry.
We still have a score to settle.”
Madam let go of Aubree, but clung to her hand, stubborn yet adorable.
Aubree simply responded with a gentle and tolerant smile to the elder in front of her.
Seraphina Parker wondered, “Isn’t that the girl who caught attention at the Classic Ink and Brush Auction a few days ago?
No wonder her calligraphy is so good.
If she is Madam Aria’s granddaughter, it makes sense.”
Esther was completely shocked, Aubree, she was actually…
This was too unbelievable.
Half the room had yet to come back to their senses.
Most of them were not strangers to Aubree.
Cello Cook was surprised, glancing subconsciously at Anton Cook.
The boy looked dazed and lost in thought, causing Cello to frown.
Had the boy overthought again?
Sheila Cook was delighted, “It’s Sister Aubree.”
Edric Lewis grinned from ear to ear, the young boy understood a lot more than one might think.
Romilly Powell’s eyes were fixed on Aubree, her gaze filled with the venom of a snake.
She laughed, “Ridiculous, do you know who this woman is?
She is the daughter of a murderer.
You have all been deceived by her.”
Brenda Lopez curled her lips, “I know this girl.
She initially returned to the Grooves in Pethkids, posing as their true successor, only for the truth of her deception to be unveiled at Madam Groove’s birthday celebration.
Then, she became Pindo Rinto’s daughter.
Ah, Pindo Rinto, none of you would’ve heard of him, a notorious killer in Pethkids.
A rat’s son can burrow, so what could the daughter of a murderer amount to?
How virtuous could she truly be?
She’s quite experienced in usurping others.
Now, she’s become a granddaughter of the Arias.
What a cunning plan?
Even at such a young age, she could plot all this, her thoughts are indeed deep.”
Not many people here knew Aubree’s past.
Upon hearing Brenda Lopez’s words, they looked at Aubree with complicated expressions.
It was hard to imagine her being such a person.
Peter Aria stood before Aubree, “That’s enough of your slander.
All I know is Aubree is Aurora’s daughter, and she’s a granddaughter of the Arias.
We won’t stand for your false accusations.”
“Peter Aria, you fool!
You have been conned by this woman.” Brenda Lopez stomped her feet in fury.
Madam Aria tapped her cane on the floor, sending a shockwave that silenced the hall.
“Yes, this child may be from a bloodline that’s disparaged due to her father, but one’s birth cannot be chosen.
She too is an innocent victim.
Brenda Lopez, your clever and fragile defenses won’t change the fact that Aubree is my maternal descendant, Rhea Daniella’s.
From today, whoever dares to insult this child’s origins will be crossing me and the Arias.”
The aura exuded by Madam silenced the crowd.
No one dared to utter a word.
“Child, don’t be afraid.
I know of the hardships you’ve faced before.
But from now on, in Lostswa, no one will dare to bully you.
As your grandmother, I’ll support you and I still have some power.”
She was warning everyone.
Thanks to her influence and status, whoever dared to offend her would regret it.
After her words today, no one would dare cross Aubree.
Aubree gripped Madam’s hand and whispered, “Grandmother, thank you.
But there is one debt in blood that I still have to settle with them.”
Madam Aria trembled, “You mean…
?”
Aubree looked at Peter Aria, “Please take care of grandmother.
Leave the rest to me.”
Peter Aria looked at her seriously, “Alright.”
Aubree let go of the Madam’s hand, took a step forward, looking at Romilly Powell…
the woman behind her.
With a slight smile, she asked softly, “Romilly Powell, why did you pretend to be Vanessa Aria?
Was there someone behind all this?”
Romilly scowled, “No one is directing me.”
