###Chapter 214 Those Confused Memories Of The Family – Part 2

Alice's face was particularly bleak. She looked at Phoebe and held her hands. She seemed to be restraining her anger and suddenly smiled coldly. "Yes, I am cheap, but I am not as cheap as you. Phoebe, think about it carefully. Why on earth would Richard divorce you?"

"Because of you, because of you, you slut!" Phoebe was furious and her face was ferocious. "Because you seduced him and destroyed our family, it was all because of you."

"Oh!" Alice sneered. "You really have no memory of your past. That night at Victor Hotel London ten years ago, did you think that as long as you didn't remember and didn't say anything, no one would know?"

Phoebe's face suddenly changed. "You. What do you mean?"

"I mean, you know better than I do, and you'll probably never know that after you've done something ugly like that, that person will go to Richard with the video and let Richard appreciate how you fell in love overnight."

Phoebe turned white and looked at Alice's body trembling. "It's impossible, it's impossible. Richard knows, he knows ..."

Alice's face was expressionless. "He not only knew but also to cover up the scandal of yours. When the man came to him with a video, he gave the man money to buy him to shut up. Do you know how he got through it every time? He loves you, and you know it, but why do you make him sad?"

"No!" Phoebe burst into tears. "I didn't know that night. I didn't know at all. I wanted to explain it to him, but when I saw you with him, I felt sick and broke down. That's why I fought with him. I didn't know it was like this."

Alice looked at her grief coldly and said indifferently, "There was nothing wrong with him at that time, but to cover up your scandal. He promised to give me Badger's shares and a sum of money. Astley was facing bankruptcy at that time. It was my father live's hard work, so I needed the money, and I agreed, so I promised to accompany him in a play, to spread rumors of him cheating. The man knew that the things in his hand were of no use at all. You must know why the man died in an inexplicable car accident. Richard's killer was you."

Phoebe sat on the ground and burst into tears. "Why didn't he tell me? Why?"

"Tell you what?" The cold expression on Alice's face didn't go away. "What's the use of telling you? That man died in a car accident. You almost killed him for a bad man. What did you do? To make you hate him, he killed the person you care about most?"

"What are you talking about? I don't love him at all. It was an accident that night. He died. I just went to have a look. I felt sick when I saw you with him. That's why I stabbed him with a knife. I didn't expect it to be like this."

Aaron's face was calm and ugly.

He looked at Alice and said in a cold voice, "Why are you talking about this now? Richard is dead. Do you want to kill my mother, too?"

Alice sneered, "So, you want your mother to hate your father all her life? He has been wronged for so many years, why not let him die innocently?"

"I deserve to die! I deserve to die!" Phoebe cried and got up from the ground. She looked at Alice and smiled, "He loves me, yes, he loves me."

There seemed to be something wrong with her. I looked at Aaron and said, "You'd better take your mom to the hospital. There seems to be something wrong with her now."

There were so many things going on that few people could stand it. Aaron glanced at Alice and helped Phoebe out of the family house.

The Badger family left me and Alice. I looked at this somewhat indifferent woman, I said more, but faintly said, "Auntie, it's getting late, I'll go back first."

After a few steps, she said, "You think I'm wrong, too? Shouldn't you talk about these old things?"

I froze, paused, looked back at her, paused, and said, "Uncle Richard wouldn't want to say this when he was alive. Maybe he had his own plan."

"Oh!" She sneered. "He was just worried about Phoebe's feelings and fame. What could have been his plan?"

I could not help but frown. I always felt that her words were full of malice. So, I looked at her and said, "Auntie, Uncle Richard's plan was all for himself. All he asked for all his life was to keep his wife's reputation. You have taken most of her life."

She endured the pain half her life and hated her life just to find out that it was all caused by her. It does hurt to know that they hated and loved the wrong person. Phoebe who had no intention of knowing, will not be able to live with the guilt for the rest of her life.

She looked at me and squinted. "Are you speaking for Aaron? Isn't my life not life too? Because of her, my life was ruined. I didn't marry the one I love. I didn't get to have a child. In the end, I was still the poor and pitiful one.

Looking at her, I didn't want to sympathize with her at all. I looked at her and said, "Auntie, Uncle Richard gave you more than half of the Badger's shares, as well as the emergency money at that time, which you were willing to exchange. He has been with you all these years. He has given you love and care. You can't be too greedy. You have enjoyed his money and love. Now that he was gone, was it appropriate for you to start complaining that he was holding up your life?"

Everyone had their own choices, and when she chose to follow Richard Badger at that time, she already thought that this day would come eventually, sooner or later.

She glared at me, "Thanks to you, you killed Astley's wife."

I frowned and stopped talking to her. Maybe I was not the same person, and I couldn't get together no matter how hard I tried.

At that time, I was prepared when she came to me because of the child in Nicole's belly. She was a person who put her interests first.

After taking care of the family, it was already dark.

I went straight back to the villa. I thought Jordan would have come back, but unexpectedly, he was not there.

Even if I went back to feel comfortable, I read a lot of documents in the company at noon, and I mentioned some keywords that I was not very familiar with, which I can check at this time.

Mrs. Marcela asked me to eat already, and I was fascinated, so I asked her not to disturb me.

By the time Jordan came back, it was already a little late.

He probably saw that I was not in the bedroom, so he came to the study to find me.

When I saw him, I couldn't help withdrawing my eyes from the computer and looking at him and said, "You're back!"

He smiled, walked up to me, and leaned over my desk to see what I was looking at.

The faint smell of perfume on him made my subconscious brow frown slightly.

I hardly use perfume, and he seldom uses it, and it smells like a woman's body.

My smile turned into a frown, and I got up to avoid his gesture of reaching out and pulling me and went straight back to the bedroom.
