Chapter 1088:
Eileenâs face tightened into a frown. She pulled her arm free and pushed Jaliyah away. âWhat are you doing?â
âWhy didnât you let me frisk you? Are you hiding something?â Jaliyah shot back, her voice dripping with suspicion. âYouâre just trying to capture us apologizing and make us a laughingstock!â
She spun around and said to Kamila, âI felt something in her pocket.â
Kamilaâs expression turned slightly awkward as she stood up and replied, âWeâve shown our commitment to resolving the issue by coming here. But if you continue like this⦠You are out of line!â
Eileen glared at Jaliyah, who was standing before her, and exclaimed indignantly, âJaliyah is the one who tried to search me! I havenât done anything!â
âThereâs a camera in your pocket,â Jaliyah said.
âYou knew there was a camera in my pocket just after touching it? Thatâs absurd!â Eileen couldnât stand it anymore. âLeave my house now. Letâs bygones be bygones. From now on, we shouldnât interfere with each other!â
Jaliyah refused to give in. âYouâre shameless! I want to leave only after you hand over the camera today!â
She tried to reach into Eileenâs pocket again.
Eileen seized Jaliyahâs wrist and wrenched it backward, causing Jaliyah to clench her teeth in pain.
âThereâs a security camera in our living room. Would you also like to remove that before you go?â Eileen said sarcastically.
Your update hub: gⱯlηÏνâ¯âsâ¤cøm Jaliyah turned around and saw a hidden camera recording everything.
Turning to face Keith and Kamila, she said, âDid you hear her? She wants to use this to humiliate our family!â
Eileen responded, âWhoâs humiliating your family? Iâm not the one who forced you to pretend to be pregnant, and I didnât expose you in public. Donât think everyone is as bad as you!â
Eileen shoved Jaliyah aside and said to Keith, âMr. Aston, donât delude yourself into thinking the Vazquez family and the Aston family can harmoniously coexist. Weâll leave tomorrow, and future conflicts will be avoided if we maintain our distance. You better take them and go back now.â Then, she turned her back toward them, unwilling to continue the conversation for another minute.
Jaliyah was about to lunge forward, but Bryan, positioned behind Eileen, shifted his stance. Jaliyah recoiled, intimidated by his icy gaze.
Keith muttered, âI regret not disciplining my family properly. Iâll ask them to make a public apologyâ¦â
Keith felt so ashamed that he couldnât raise his head.
Kamilaâs eyes went wide with indignation. âWhat did you say? A public apology?â
She glared at Eileen, thinking that Eileen was clearly trying to achieve this by saying what she had just said.
âYouâre just like your motherâ all high and mighty on the outside, but holier-than-thou on the inside. Even after all these years, the memory of her still holds a grip on Keith, and now heâs playing favorites with you!â Jaliyahâs anger boiled over as she spewed every bitter thought that cropped up in her mind. âIâve never seen my father-in-law display such affection toward my mother-in-law. Yet, the moment it comes to you and your motherâa duo of seductresses from the Vazquez familyâhe becomes infatuated.â
