Female Novel
Chapter 335
He frowned slightly and glanced sideways at Valerie. His voice was a little low. "When did you become
so ruthless that you can bear hurting a child?"novelbin
Valerie felt wronged. She retorted, "Pedro, do you know how Andrea lived after returning to the city?
My heart breaks for my daughter!"
"Nonsense!" Pedro was a little angry. "You have spoiled her rotten. You will be the cause of Andrea's
downfall eventually."
Valerie lowered her head, her eyes red and watery. "We have done her wrong all these years."
Pedro sighed. His gaze fell on me as he said, "Miss Reid, there's no point crying over spilt milk. Please
put your conditions forward, and we'll try our best to compensate you for the damage we caused."
This couple really was something else. One was a murder while the other used money as a problem-
solver. What an amazing pair this two made.
I straightened my back and looked at the two. "How sincere of you two. I don't care about money or
power. You know that I don't lack
any of them. How about this? In Buddhism, what goes around, comes around - such is the belief in
karma which posits that....a life for a life. Miss Burton was going to give birth anyway. Why not
compensate for my child's life with hers? The two children can also have each other's company on their
way to the netherworld!"
"Arianna, you're crossing the line!" Valerie's face turned red. "Do you really think that you are powerful
just because you have a few big shots around you? Let me tell you. You're still too young."
I smiled faintly, but I was not angry. I nodded, "You're right. I know that I am still young, which means
that I still have a long way to go!"
"You're a smart person, Miss Reid. Do you think it's worth it to make everyone unhappy and ruin your
future for a child?" This was clearly a threat.
I laughed and said, "Yes, it is completely worth it! Alright, you guys have fun chatting. I'll take my leave
first." Looking at Valerie, I smiled radiantly. "I'll be seeing you around, Mrs. Lawson."
Valerie stared at me sullenly. I stopped smiling and went straight into the hall.
Whether they were happy or not was their business. What I only cared about was my comfortability.
Rich and powerful people could really do whatever they wanted. An innocent life meant nothing to
them. What a joke!
When I arrived at the hall, most of the guests had already left. When Charles saw me, he smiled and
said softly, "Although the Reid family is big, you have become my daughter, so you have to choose an
auspicious day to join the Reid family officially. The pride and integrity of my daughter must be shown."
I smiled lightly and my eyes tingled. My voice broke a little as I said, "Thank you, Mr. Reid."
"Tsk, tsk," he said. "Call me Dad!"
I pursed my lips and smiled with tears in my eyes. "Dad!"
"Great!" He laughed heartily. "Tell me your address. I'll be away from work in the next two days. I'll bring
you something delicious when I get back."
I nodded and looked at him. "I'm over at the Central Park Residence. Take care when you're out there."
He nodded and said with a smile, "Alright, I'll ask your brother to take care of you from now on. We'll be
a family in the future. If you need anything, just let him know!"
I nodded and couldn't help but feel waves of warmth crashing into my heart.
After sending off the guests, Irvin walked towards us. He looked at Charles and said, "Rest assured,
Mr. Reid. I will take good care of your daughter and ensure that she is healthy and happy."
