Aleigha's heart sank. If she weren't pregnant, she'd be out there kicking Perla's ass.
Adrian came back just before 12 o'clock at night, and there was a new excitement outside the door.
Aleigha went downstairs.
Adrian looked coldly at the three people on the ground. He'd had a few drinks tonight.
"Who are they?"
Phoenix shook his head. "They said they were Mrs. Xiao's family."
"Get rid of them!"
Adrian glanced at Perla and went straight inside.
"Are you Adrian Xiao, Aleigha's husband? I'm her aunt. I know you."
To keep Adrian from walking away, Perla threw Phoenix off and ran towards Adrian.
Then she got down on her knees and hugged his leg.
Adrian looked down and saw Perla's flattering smile.
What a shifty face!
"Get out of my way!" Enraged, Adrian kicked her.
However, Perla held his leg like an octopus, grinning obstinately.
"Adrian, we just want to see Aleigha."
"Why? I don't think we are still family."
In the end, Aleigha couldn't help but walk out.
"You said you'd take care of us at my dad's grave."
It was Samantha. She had been reluctant to go back to the countryside since she lived in the city.
They went to the Gardner Residence first, but the Gardners were gone and they saw no one. One day, they saw Adrian and Aleigha on TV.
They asked around, and spent a lot of money to get the address of the Xiao Residence.
They were gonna hang on to Aleigha forever.
"What? Why should I support you guys? You are just parasites on the community!
"Stop dreaming and get out of here now!"
Adrian knew how shameless Aleigha's so-called relatives were. He felt really sorry for her.
He had no idea what she had been through the last few years.
Apparently, Perla and her kids were more annoying than the Gardners.
"Why are you still standing there? Get rid of them."
Adrian's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he kicked heavily at Perla's face.
With a sharp wail, Perla bounced out like a ball.
Finally, she landed at the door.
Seeing this, Samantha and Sean started crying and shouting.
Sean was so fat that he had no waist. The bodyguards were all over him, but he was quick.
He didn't seem afraid at all and darted swiftly into the house.
Aleigha's eyes were filled iwth anger. She took out the shining silver pistol from her pocket.
She fired a shot at Sean.
She was a pretty good shot now.
The shot hit him right at the foot, making a hole in his brand-new sneakers.
Of course, Aleigha wouldn't kill him. Scaring him was enough.
Sure enough, Sean started shaking, like a defeated boar.
He sat down on the ground, and at the same time, a stream of yellow liquid came out of his trousers.
What?
Aleigha rolled down the car window, holding a gun in her hand, and looked at Perla coldly.
"How come you have my mom's stuff?"
Perla looked at Aleigha with vigilance, for fear that she would fire a shot again.
"I always have it. She left it with me."
"Show me what it is, or get out of my sight."
Perla looked at Samantha and then took out something wrapped in a handkerchief from her pocket.
Aleigha looked at her coldly. When she saw the black handkerchief, her eyes instantly turned red.
Inside it was a crystal clear bracelet made of the finest suet jade.
Perla was poor, but she had never dared to sell this jade bracelet. On one hand, she was afraid of being cheated. On the other hand, she always thought it would be useful.
"How much do you want?"
Aleigha knew the jade bracelet. When she was young, her mother told her that Grandpa bought it at an auction abroad.
It was expensive and her mom liked it very much.
The Mccall family soon fell into decay, because of Marcos.
Her mom seldom took out the bracelet again.
She looked for this bracelet when her mom died, but she couldn't find it. She thought Perla had sold it.
However, to her surprise, Perla still had it.
"Aleigha, we don't want money. We just want you to support us.
"By the way, you need to marry Samantha to a rich guy and get Sean a pretty wife."
"You're just daydreaming," Aleigha did not want to talk to her anymore.
