The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

Chapter 531

Heartbroken, Johanna turned off the player and looked at Lila. She shook her head and said, “I never imagined that I would raise such a cruel, heartless human being.”

What had happened previously came to Beal’s mind. He said seriously, “I warned you once before, Lila. You knew full well that there was something wrong with the parachute but you purposely did not tell Janet about that. It is clear that you actually wanted to watch her fall to her untimely death. And now, this? You pushed her to a moving vehicle? This is just atrocious!”

Johanna really couldn’t make head or tail of it. How could her daughter, who had been carefully and lovingly raised by her, become such a venomous person? “You cried so bitterly when our cat passed away, yet now, you are more than willing to kill your sister with your own hands?!”

Lila was still kneeling on the ground, crying piteously. She tried her best to defend herself. “I was just envious of her. You’ve never even looked at me since she came into this family. She had stolen all your love for me. I did it purely out of jealousy!” Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Beal had already heard enough of Lila’s excuses. He couldn’t bear to hear another pathetic excuse ever again. He said in a stern tone, “Don’t make any more excuses. Lila, I have warned you before.”

Johanna didn’t believe Lila’s words for a second. She was wholly disappointed in her. She was crestfallen. “Had I known about your ways earlier, I would never have kept you as part of the White family. My original intention was to keep our family together, but it seems that such an attempt will just be futile and will never actually happen.”

Johanna had underestimated the intensity of evil in human nature. She had thought that everything could go back to being the same way it had been before if she handled the situation well.

But things went completely contrary to her wishes. Ethan was right. Human beings were capable of insatiable greed. Some people would just never be satisfied.

She had been a mother to Lila for over two decades, but regardless of how deep her love was, she could never bare the fact that Lila had tried to kill her biological daughter on two occasions. She could not keep Lila any longer.

“No, Dad, Mom, please don’t abandon me! This time, I really understand how wrong I was!” Lila was in a state of complete and utter panic. She didn’t know why she had done such a dumb thing, especially after Beal had specifically warned her prior to that.

Beal shook his head, with no emotion in his eyes. “I said last time that I wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen again, and yet you have repeated it again. This time, you even attempted to kill Janet with your own two hands. The White family can’t keep you here any longer. You’d better go back to your biological parents.”

“No, no, Dad, Mom, I don’t want to go back. I don’t want to be separated from you!” Hearing this, Lila almost broke down. She cried pathetically, “Dad, Mom, don’t drive me away!”

Beal and Johanna both sighed with indifferent expressions on their faces.

Lila immediately crawled to Janet and began begging desperately. “I’m sorry, Janet. Please forgive me for the last time…”

She couldn’t leave the White family. If she left, she would lose absolutely everything and be reduced to zilch.
