Chapter 108 Struggle Inside
Chapter 108 Struggle Inside
"Master Antonio, my grandson is critically ill. I was so worried about him so I forgot it!" While saying,
Damla seemed to recall those difficult sleepless nights, tears falling.
It was not an excuse. The pot of soup that she left was obviously deliberate. Antonio couldn't speak for
her. He glanced at the woman beside him, who had already flushed. It was obvious that she was so
angry.
Adelaide was irritated by the nonsense that Damla made up. Everything Adelaide did was reasonable.
Why did Damla look like that she had been wronged so much?
"Master Antonio, you had a high fever when you were seven years old. There was lightning and
thunder that night, and it was raining heavily. It was me who sent you to the hospital in the rain. After
you got better, I fell ill!"
"And when you were eight years old, you were beaten by gangsters at the school gate. It was me who
desperately protected you!"
She said those past events with crying. Feeling so wronged, she directly sat on the ground, crying
loudly. The scene was so embarrassing. But Damla didn’t feel any embarrassed. She kept saying more
past events, which she sacrificed for Antonio.
How could someone like Antonio allow others to threaten him? No matter who the person was, he
didn’t allow anyone threatening him!
Sticking to the matter being discussed was Antonio's consistent attitude and behavioral rules. Now,
Antonio felt a little annoyed with Damla at this moment. He pursed his lips and his face darkened.
Damla still didn't realize that Antonio was a little unhappy. She kept talking and talking.
"Enough! Your caring for me for more than 20 years writes off the money you owe me!" In what mood
did he say these words out? Adelaide held his hand, feeling distressed. She hoped that she could send
some warmth to Antonio.
"That’s great! This is Master Antonio who I brought up!" After saying that, she raised her head
triumphantly and looked at Adelaide contemptuously, not knowing that Antonio had already been so
disappointed with her.
Adelaide said to Damla with gloomy face, "You go out first."
Antonio looked down at his watch. It was not too late right now!
He had a lot of work to deal with. Last night, he and Adelaide had discussed that they just needed to
teach Damla a lesson. Besides, they didn’t plan to let Damla pay back the money. After all, Damla had
taken care of Antonio for many years.
But they didn’t expect this result. Antonio said in a deep voice, "I'm leaving too!"
After speaking, he left home.
Seeing Antonio leaving, Adelaide felt a sense of anxiety. Although Antonio didn't say anything,
Adelaide knew the relationship between Damla and Antonio was gone, though Damla didn’t have to
sell the house to pay back after she made such a scene.
Maybe Antonio complained that she pressed Damla too hard right? Adelaide thought to herself.
Adelaide sat in a chair and kept telling herself that she had done nothing wrong. As a nanny, Damla left
a pot of fish soup which stunk to demonstrate to Adelaide on purpose. She was just responding to
Damla's move.
But her mind was in a mess. She couldn’t figure it out. In fact, she wanted to build her own prestige at
home through this incident. But when she really built her prestige, there was like a huge stone in her
mind, making her feel uncomfortable.
She was confused and didn’t know what to do.
Just as she was at a loss, a woman she didn't want to see, or she didn't dare to see, walked in
aggressively.
"Adelaide!" She shouted Adelaide's name. Adelaide couldn't help trembling.
Adelaide hurriedly smiled and pretended to be surprised to see the woman, "Ah! Hanan, what brings
you here?"
Why Hanna was angry had to date back to before Adelaide went abroad. The two had a deal to go
shopping together the next day. It was not a big deal at all. But when Adelaide woke up the next day,
she found that she was in the Aegean Sea, so she totally forgot the matter.
Besides, Antonio and she didn’t bring anything with them. She didn't pack up her stuff or bring her
mobile phone.
Moreover, when Antonio and Adelaide were in the Aegean Sea, they didn’t take pictures or post to
Moments, just because she didn't bring her mobile phone, though she was a little regretful. There was
no doubt that she had forgotten that she had an appointment to go shopping with Hanna.
When she got home yesterday, she took out her cell phone under the pillow. After she turned on her
phone, OMG, there were thirty missed calls, accompanied countless messages and countless WeChat
messages from Hanna.
Only then did she suddenly remember the matter. She swallowed her saliva secretly. At that time, she
actually hoped that she could be kidnapped by someone! She texted a message to Hanna nervously.
Then her phone kept buzzing. It was Hanna who called her. Adelaide answered the phone with some
guilty. As expected, there was a deafening roar coming from the phone.
Adelaide knew that she was wrong. She kept apologizing to Hanna. She explained to Hanna that it was
all Antonio’s faults. But she didn’t expect that Antonio happened to come out of the bathroom. When he
heard what Adelaide said, he just told Hanna it was Adelaide who wanted to go abroad to hang out.
Hanna was so mad.
She was so idle all day long. But her best friend actually traveled abroad alone, not inviting her.
Besides, the Aegean Sea was a so romantic and relaxing place!
Now, Adelaide continued to keep smiling at Hanna, serving Hanna like a maid. Adelaide helped Hanna
to sit on a chair in the study, then she went to the kitchen to pour water for Hanna.
Seeing Adelaide really knew that she was wrong and her attitude so sincere, Hanna was finally willing
to forgive her. But Hanna frowned, remembering the smell of just walking in. She couldn't help asking,
"Somebody died in your house? It’s so smelly!"
Damla just cleaned the room. Definitely, there was still a little smell. But Adelaide was used to it, so she
couldn't smell it.
Hearing the ridicule in Hanna’s words, Adelaide laughed mockingly, "Yes!"
"What's going on?" Hanna knew in an instant that Adelaide was not happy.
Adelaide shook her head. She was probably the first person to be bullied by the nanny, right? Besides,
Hanna had a short fuse. If Hanna knew it, she might beat Damla up. So Adelaide quickly changed the
subject, "Hanna, I brought back a lot of shells from the Aegean Sea. I haven’t seen my mother for a
long time. I want to see her."
Hearing this, Hanna became serious. She knew why Adelaide's mother died. She also knew that
Adelaide was unwilling to forgive her father until now.
Hanna pondered for a long time. She still hoping that Adelaide could understand what was best for her
mother, "Let's go see your father by the way. I think he will be very happy if you go to see him."
Adelaide pursed her lips and said nothing. Father? Happy? If it weren’t Clarissa’s mother, how could
her mother be so angry that she passed away? Before dying, her mother was still thinking of her
husband.
After her mother died, she hated her father’s guts. Besides, Flora said that she had the evidence which
could prove that Adelaide wasn’t Greyson’s biological daughter. She was almost driven out of the Swift
family. Perhaps it was because her father felt guilty for her dead mother, or perhaps he didn't believe in
Flora, so she could continue to stay in the Swift family in the end.
Father?
Humph…
He kept her staying in the Swift family, but never proved others whether she was his biological Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
daughter or not.
