Ailina’s POV:After breakfast, I prepare to leave. I wanted to find someone to attend my commencement ceremony as my parent.I went to the kitchen and said to Kelly, “Kelly, I’m leaving.”“Oh, Miss Wilson, please wait a moment.” She washed her hands before coming out of the kitchen. She then took out an envelope from a drawer and said, “Mr. Alfonzo asked me to give this to you.”I took the envelope and was a little confused. ‘A letter?’‘Could it be a love letter?’Thinking of this, I slightly blushed and coughed softly. “Thank you, Kelly. See you!”I walked out of the envelope. However, not until I entered the elevator, I didn’t open it.When I opened it, there were only two lines written on it.Ricky said that he had found a parent for me to attend the commencement ceremony. Under that, there was the phone number of that “parent.”Although it was not a love letter, I still felt sweet and warm.When I get out of the elevator, I dial the number on the paper.“Hello is this Miss Jones,
Susan’s POV:Hallie could be said to be the star today. She always had good grades in school, so she could sit in the fourth row.Professional judges would be seated in the first row, and the representatives of the clothing companies were arranged to sit in the second or third rows.Parents and students are in the fourth row and behind.George and I sit beside Hallie in the fourth row.At this moment, George was looking around.I knew he was trying to find Ailina. Regardless of how angry he was, Ailina was his biological daughter, and he was still concerned about her.I looked at George whose eyes were wandering and poked Hallie, signaling her to speak.“Dad, I don’t think I saw sister. You said last night that you wouldn’t attend her graduation ceremony. So she probably got angry. Why don’t you call her and tell her that you are here and let her sit with us?” Hallie seemed to be considerate and suggested.However, George snorted. “So wilful. If she doesn’t want to graduate, then don’
Lisa’s POV:Every backstage was handled by me.When Mike picked up the microphone and began to introduce his work, I could get a short break and casualty flipped through the other entries.At that moment, when I saw Ailina’s graduation project, my eyes widened.I had never seen such a design before. At first glance, I only felt that it was a painting of a peony. However, when I took a closer look, she realized that it was a dress…The designer perfectly combined the concept of traditional painting and the dress together. It was simply too beautiful.I am also a designer, so I appreciate designs like this. Without a few or even a dozen years of learning, one would not make such a magnificent work. Most importantly, the person who draws this must have a good grip on traditional paintings.Whether the color or the composition, it was so harmonious and top-notch.I took a deep breath.I was clear about the relationship between Hallie Wilson and Ailina Wilson. ‘Perhaps, I could use this to
Susan’s POV:After returning to her seat from the bathroom, Hallie said to George. “Dad, when I went to the bathroom just now, I saw my sister here!”“Oh, it appear that she know it is a big day for her and she cares about this ceremony after all.”George snorted. “Then, why didn’t she come out to find us?”Hallie hesitated momentarily and said, “I saw a woman sitting by my sister’s side. She may be an importer who hired my sister to play as her parents. It seemed that even if my sister wants to attend the commencement, she doesn’t want you to accompany her. She would rather spend money to hire…”“Alright, Hallie stop.” Seeing that George’s face was getting more twisted, I knew that Hallie had to be stopped. If she continued, George would inevitably find she intently sabotaging his relationship with Alina.Hallie shut her mouth and I comforted George. “George, Ailina was just bummed out about the previous decision. You don’t have to take it personally. She is steal your daughter!”“Hmp
Hallie’s POV:When I saw the scores, I couldn’t help but smile. I had outshone those students. Their highest score was only 70, but mine was 89.I bowed to everyone with a light smile on my cheeks. “Thank you for your acknowledgement of me. I will keep working hard.”The boss of the company sitting in the second row stood up from his seat. “Is this talent wanting to work in the Imperial clothing?”The other companies also stood up and threw an olive branch at me.“Miss, our company is willing to hire you directly as a designer with a high salary.”I stood on the stage, cocky. My hand holding the microphone trembled slightly because of sheer excitement.The students below also began to whisper. “Hallie is so good. Am I right? But she has changed her design into traditional style recently.”“I used to think that her design was pretty boring, but she was very diligent. As expected, diligence is still the way to become someone great. Look at how much progress she had made now.”Noticing t
Maria’s POV:On this stage was a little girl performs sand painting. Just as she was about to finish her performance, a busy assistant teacher came over and said that the last set of designs was missing.I frowned. “What? It’s gone? It just disappeared out of thin air?”The assistant teacher only kept her down and remained silent.I went backstage to look up the drafts with the teaching assistant and kept asking, “Who exactly came to the backstage before?”The assistant teachers looked at each other, and the last girl stood up and said, “Only Miss Disuza passed by.”Naturally, they didn’t dare to say that it was Christine who had taken the design away. But they could only tell the truth. Indeed, when Christine chased Miranda, she passed by the backstage.I frowned and said to Lisa, “Lisa, get the surveillance to me.”Lisa went to the monitoring room directly.I ran to Miranda. I would suspect Christine, but I would expect Miranda.Miranda had never liked Ailina and the last night she
Hallie’s POV:This dress was also designed strapless. However, the strapless style was not the same as the current dress, which made it look like a traditional dress.The neckline was also shaped like a flower petal. The flower petals were open, which corresponded to the hem of the skirt. It would also make the upper body of the weaker look petite. The open flower petals could cover her arms and could effectively cover her jiggly arms and supplementary breasts.It was obvious this dress was not designed for the model, but also it would be comfortable for ordinary people.This was not only a gown, it was more like a traditional gown. However, it is also less burdensome and more refreshing. Every corner of the skirt seemed made of petals.Most importantly, the sand painting becomes a moving picture under her hand. The girl danced in such a skirt like a peony flower, and the flower bud to opening, then to withering, sometimes shy, sometimes delicate, sometimes sad, which caused every aud
Ailina’s POV:The host smiled and said to Lillian, “Hello. You are Ailina’s companion. May I ask, who are you? You should not be an elder at such a young age, right?”She looked at me with a smile and said, “I am her aunt.”The host immediately complimented me. “You are really well-maintained. You look like a sister with Ailina?”She smiled. “Thank you.”“Then Ailina won the award today, do you have to say?” The host handed the microphone to Lillian.Standing on the stage, she thought for a while, and said, “I’m very grateful and happy for Ailina’s achievements today. This is the result of her hard work and her talent. Her mother passed away early. I only hope that she can grow up happily and lively. No matter what choice she makes, I will support her.”I looked at Lillian and felt inexplicably cordial, thinking, ‘If Mom was alive, the one standing here today should be Mom. She would have said the same words, right? Mom never forced me to do anything. She would not stop me from doing
Hallie’s POV:After Mrs. Murray left, I cried, “Daddy, Mommy, Darren’s legs are broken. He is the person with only one leg. Why do you want me to marry him? I won’t marry. I won’t.” Then I began to cry.“You don’t have the right to criticize that Darren is a person with only one leg. Don’t you know why he had one leg missing? You are just making up for what you have done to him.” Dad said coldly.Dad had always been gentle with me. It was the first time he spoke so harshly. I felt wronged. I bit my lower lip and said, “You have promised that it was Ailina who was to marry him. Why do I have to be with the bride now? What’s more, the Murray family has taken fancy to Ailina, not me. I have been rejected by the Murray family before…”Hardly I had finished my words when Dad slapped me. He said angrily, “You want your sister to marry him. How dare you? Why should Ailina
George’s POV:After Dad left, Susan and Hallie walked to my side and said softly. “It’s been so many years, but Mr. Wilson still can’t accept me.”When I heard her words, I turned around and glared at her. “You still blame Dad for not accepting you. Look what you have done?”Susan lowered her head and said, “You have slapped and rebuke me. Why would I do this? Isn’t it for the sake of Wilson? Are you willing to see Hallie go to jail?”I glared at her. “For the sake of the Wilson? In front of so many people, everyone knows that I am going to sell my daughter and drugged her. My daughter would rather die than be sold. This matter will be probably make people discuss for several years.”“I don’t know Ailina was so strong…”“Who told you to drug her? Who to hold you to use such a despicable method? She is my daughter. How can you do this to her
Rican’s POV:As Ailina watched the play, she ate a fruit. Unknowingly, a plate of fruit was eaten by her. She sat on the bed with an empty plate and stared at the iPad.I saw her eating up the fruit. So, I naturally reached out and took the fruit plate away. I turned around and placed it on the table beside her. I poured her another glass of water and handed it to her. “Have a drink.”The project director who was reporting hurriedly picked up the cup and took a sip.Ailina took the cup and said, “Don’t worry about me.”I chuckled and continued the meeting.My video conference was not long either. After the Green River Bay Project director finished reporting, I gave some specific suggestions and arranged other actors for other departments.Then I turned off the video conference.I asked Ailina, “What do you want to eat later?”She shook her head. “I am not hungry. I at
Author’s POV:After saying that, Rican turned around and left.He must hurry back to the hospital and watch over his girl.When he returned to the hospital, it was already eleven thirty in the evening. The nurse was guarding Ailina’s bed, taking care of her constantly.Rican asked the nurse to rest and began to guard Ailina.The nurse was a bit embarrassed. She was a senior nurse who was paid a lot of salary and could not sleep at night. However, Rican was the one who paid her salary, so she thanked him repeatedly before leaving.****After asking those people to let Eric go, Jayden went home.Before those people released Eric, they even beat him up and warned him that if he dared to salivate Ailina, they would kill him. Eric was very scared, so he quickly ran away.Those people took out a small notebook and seriously wrote “Ailina on” it.They must protect this girl from now on. After all,
Eric’s POV:The Sky Tower Building was the tallest in city A, which towered into the clouds as its name suggested.And now my feet were tied to an elastic rope.The other end of the roof was tied to a flagpole.I stood there trembling and roared, “Who are you? Do you know who I am? Hurry up and let me go, or you will pay for it…”Dong!I was pushed down from the roof before finishing my words.I was too frightened to my head my image, and screamed, “Ah! Dear lord, help me. Help me…”However, nobody cared about me no matter how loudly I screamed.I tumbled down from the roof, and was bounced halfway back, and then fell again.I was nearly insane. The wind whistled by my ears and I felt that next moment I was going to die. I was unable to catch my breath and fainted.Jayden’s POV:The third Master had called me last night and asked me to bring Eric to T
Rican’s POV:When Ailina woke up, she felt a sharp pain in her shoulder. She was too weak to sit upI supported her. “Let me help you.”She blinked up for a long time and finally remembered what had happened before. “Why are we at the hospital? There is no need to send me to the hospital for this minor injury.”Seeing that Ailina didn’t care about her injury at all, I couldn’t do anything with her but asked, “Did you stab yourself?”When Trevor said that the cut avoided arteries, I figured out that Ailina herself did it.“Yes.” She nodded. “Did I do it perfectly? It looks serious, but isn’t fatal. It will scare them. Besides…”Seeing her thoughts wondering, I scratched her nose with my finger. “Don’t ever do it again.”“I did it on purpose. I have something important to do. The injury is essential.” Ailina sa
Jayden’s POV:Later, Third Master’s second eldest uncle, Edward Alfonzo, revolted. However, Wayyt had planned a car accident in response to Edward’s revolution. That accident took Edward and his family’s life.At that time, the Third Master’s expression was dark. Later Third Master took charge and tried his best to clean up the mess. He sent his uncle Wayyt to prison and recognized Alfonzo. For that, he became the head of the Alfonzo nowadays. He was also the most convincing head of Alfonzo in Alfonzo’s history, and of course, the most frightening one.I was a little nervous. If the Third Master is like this, he must be planning something big.I was a little excited and, at the same time, a little flustered.When we arrived at the hospital, the Third Master carried Ailina inside the hospital himself.He was anxious, but he did the thing in an orderly manner.“Call Trevor Primo.” He order
Ailina’s POV:I drew my limp body to full straight.I smiled coldly, “Is that so?”Darren came closer by wheelchair and reached out to hold my hand. “Ailina, we are so perfect for each other. Do you remember when we…”I felt I was about to lose consciousness, so I didn’t waste time listening to Darren anymore. I held the fruit knife that I secretly took to Darren’s throat, “I think you and Hallie are well-matched.”He seemed didn’t expect me to have a knife in my hand. He was so scared that he trembled, “Ailina, what are you doing?”A sudden dizziness hit me, and I couldn’t even sit still.Darren suddenly and fiercely hit me with my wheelchair.So I fell off the chair.He chucked, “Ailina look at you. What are you still resisting? Give in to me. I will be nice to you now and the future.”Darren’s POV:I st
Susan’s POV:Hallie looked at the wine in her hand and dared not to drink it. She knew that I had put something in Ailina’s glass.She gritted her teeth but didn’t drink.Ailina didn’t drink either. “You refused to drink. It seemed that you don’t want to coexist peacefully with me. You and Susan didn’t keep your promise. You hate me very much, right? After all, I didn’t let you win the prize for my design, nor did I take the initiative to give my boyfriend to you.”Hallie was not drinking and Ailina’s words nullified what I had done, pretending to be pitiful.A woman came over and pushed me, “Didn’t you say that you and Ailina should live together peacefully? Why isn’t Hallie drinking now?”“I watched the live streaming. Hallie stole Ailina’s design to participate in the design competition. Later, it was exposed. Could it be that Hallie still harbors a grudge?”“Maybe. Just now, Susan said that she wanted to get along with Ailina. But I don’t think that its Ailina’s fault. It seemed t
