Chapter 213
Love Is Fair
Chapter 213 Loser Seeing Hailey, Jason showed a slight smile on his originally gloomy face and said, âHailey, youâre back.â
âYes, prandpa.â Hailey took a few steps forward, asked Chris to put the tobacco, alcohol, and tea from Kyle on the table, and conveved his greetings. Jason nodded appreciatively, âKyle is a good kid.â When Chris coldly looked at Reid who was kneeling on the ground, his disgust for his future father-in-law could not be concealed. Kyle was not Old Mr. Newmanâs biological grandson, but he had prepared gifts for him. But Reid had come empty-handed. How could he have the nerve to ask Old Mr. Newman for help? Morgan and Reid were birds of a feather, who only took but never gave. Ava was a good girl because Reid had always neglected and treated her with indifference. Otherwise, she would have been raised into a person like Eve. âUncle Reid, you should not have come to bother my grandpa.â Hailey lowered her eyes to look at Reid and said seemingly calmly, âUncle Morgan angered Grandpa, so he had a brain hemorrhage. If he falls ill again because of you, can you bear the consequences?â Her tone was calm, but Reid could hear the ruthlessness and threat in her voice. He couldnât help thinking of Morganâs tragic situation and moved his knees backward for fear that Hailey would hit him. And then, he hurriedly asked Jason for help, saying, âDad, save me! She wants to kill meâ¦â Seeing Reid was about to pounce on Jason recklessly, Hailey glared at him and snapped, âOld K.â Instantly, Old K kicked Reidâs waist fiercely as if his foot in military boots had eyes. Reid was knocked over and then rolled around on the ground. Jason showed a nervous expression and subconsciously intended to help his son, but he took his hand back in the end. A loving father might fail in educating his children. His two sons had been spoiled too much.
If things went on like this, they might die before him. But he did not want to lose his young loved ones again. Old Kâs kick was forceful. Even though he had only exerted thirty percent of his strength, Reid was still curling into a ball in pain on the ground, unable to get up. He was like a stray dog now, looking different from the unworldly man at normal times. Seeing this, Ava had a complicated feeling, so she turned her aside to look away. But she clenched her fits without realizing it. Suddenly, a warm palm was put on the back of her hand.
When she raised her head, she met Chrisâs gentle eyes. He lightly parted his crimson lips and mouthed, âDonât be afraid.â Ava nodded slightly, regaining her peace of mind. Hailey didnât want her grandfather to see such a scene, but things must be explained clearly to him. She sat down on the chair, stared at Reid who was curled up on the ground in pain, and then said, âUncle Reid, I sent a lot of people to invite you here and see Grandpa, but you are always very busy. You are busier than the president and cannot even make a little time, so I had no choice but to force you here.â Hearing this, Jason couldnât help showing a bitter smile. As people got older, they yearned for family affection more.
He knew his two sons were ungrateful, but he could not help missing them.
But his sons did not care about him at all. Reid lay on the ground and said with difficulty, âIâm reallyâ¦
busy.â âI know, youâre busy sending your little girlfriend abroad so that you can always keep each otherâs company.â Hailey snorted, âThe young women now are very shrewd. If you canât continue giving her benefits, she will immediately dump you and find a new sugar daddy. Are you addicted to being cheated on? You neglected your biological daughter but carefully raised another manâs son. Now, you woman about the same age as my daughter! Do you like robbing the cradle? You make me sick! Once you tasted what itâs like to be a beast, you donât want to be a human anymore, right?â Hailey rubbed her palms, making no secret of her sarcasm and contempt for her uncle. Reid bit his lower lip speechlessly, After all the properties under his name had been taken away by Hailey, he had become a poor man. When his little girlfriend who he had taken good care of for a few months had gotten to know that he could not send her abroad, she had dumped him mercilessly. Those sweet words and solemn pledges of love were all fake! She had just wanted his money! Hearing Haileyâs words, Jason asked in shock, âWhat? Xiao Liang is not your son?
Cindy gave birth to another manâs child?â âThat b*tch is a slut!â Reid cursed bitterly with red eyes. This was the biggest shame in his life! He had been deceived by her for so many years! Hailey said coldly, âAva has long told you Cindy is evil, but you did not believe her! You blindly helped that b*tch to bully your daughter. Your evil deeds sowed the seeds of your destruction, and you only have yourself to blame.â
Only then did Reid look up at Ava and said, âAva, Iâm sorry. I made you suffer a lot. But it is because Cindy sowed discord between us and destroyed our father-daughter relationship! Ava, I love you!â
When Ava remembered the days she had been tortured in that small dark room at home, she closed her eyes in pain and then said with red eyes, âYou love me?â
She smiled bitterly, âCan you believe your own words? I am a dispensable existence for you. You wanted a son, but my mother gave birth to a daughter, so you abandoned her. Cindy gave birth to a son, but he turns out to be another manâs child. You must reap what you have sown. You can only blame yourself. Youâre too greedy and cruel, so God punished you.â âYou wicked girl! How dare you scold your father!â Reid got angry again and wanted to get up to hit Ava. Chris stepped forward, blocked Ava behind him, and said with a cold face, âDonât you dare!â Hailey said lightly, âChris, send Uncle Reid out. Donât let him disturb my grandpa anymore. By the way, you can fight him. Since he likes resorting to violence, satisfy him.â Chris immediately took the order, stepped forward, and dragged Reid out as if he were a big stupid bear. Jason slowly said, âHaileyâ¦â. Hailey turned to look at him and said, âGrandpa, I know what you want to say. Donât worry, I wonât let you lose your young loved ones again. I promise I wonât kill them as long as youâre alive. I just want to teach them a good lesson.â
Jason sighed deeply, âYour two uncles are hopeless, and I will not intercede for them. You can do whatever you want to them. But Eve.. Eve is still young.â Because of grandparental love, he cared about his three granddaughters very much. âYou are her elder cousin. You can punish her if she did anything wrong, but we can never let others discipline or bully the Newmans, right?â
Hailey didnât want to get involved in this matter. But since her grandpa had asked her to help Eve, she couldnât bear to refuse him. So, she nodded, âOkay. Donât worry, Iâll go to the Edwards family and get her out.â
