When the Contract Marriage Ended, He Stayed

Chapter 70: Drawing Everyone’s Ire

When Fiona Forrest saw Raina Lowell’s delicate and frail appearance, she seemed to recall something, and her expression turned savage. Her furious eyes stared at Raina Lowell as if looking at a mortal enemy she wanted to tear to pieces. The moment she saw Raina, she found it impossible to remain calm.

Because she looked too much like her father.

"Why?" Fiona Forrest demanded angrily. "If you want to know why, why don’t you go ask your father what he did to us back then."

The color drained from Raina Lowell’s face. If Fiona Forrest had lost all reason, it felt as if she would be holding a knife right now, ready to stab it viciously into Raina while she was weak.

"I came here today to give you one last warning. Don’t play any tricks in front of me. Even if you get Aiden and Hazel Hawthorne to divorce, you will never set foot in the Xavier family’s home in this lifetime."

As soon as she finished speaking, Fiona Forrest wanted to leave this suffocating place.

She hadn’t even reached the door when Raina Lowell suddenly screamed at her from behind, "Even if my father did something to wrong you, he’s been dead for many years! You shouldn’t take your anger out on me! Aiden and I are truly in love!"

"Are you really willing to watch Aiden live in an unhappy marriage with Hazel Hawthorne? In this whole world, I’m the only one who can make Aiden happy. Why can’t you consider what’s best for him?"

Raina Lowell sobbed as she yelled. Fiona Forrest spun around and stared daggers at her. "You say you and Aiden are truly in love? Then why didn’t he defy my orders and divorce Hazel Hawthorne? And why did he listen to me and marry Hazel in the first place?"

Her words were laced with scorn, as if mocking Raina Lowell’s confidence.

Raina Lowell was stunned into silence. Fiona Forrest continued, "You love Aiden so much, so you must know his personality very well. If it’s something he doesn’t want to do, even I, his mother, can’t force him."
