Chapter 128
Rosalie was heavily spoiled by Dad and always liked to compete with me for everything.
One day, she pointed at my bedroom and cried to him. “I’ve never lived in such a big room before. The place I used to stay in was even smaller than the bathroom at my sister’s house.”
Her crying made Dad feel deeply sorry for her.
He even considered asking me to give up my bedroom for Rosalie.
“Alicia, you’ve lived here for so many years. How about switching rooms with your sister this time?“\
The second bedroom Rosalie originally lived in was already quite large, and its furnishings were similar to mine.
Because I refused, Dad scolded me for being selfish and not knowing how to be humble.
It wasn’t until Mom appeared and reprimanded my father that he never mentioned making me yield to Rosalie again.
Rosalie also became much more obedient.
But deep down, I knew Dad was still secretly favoring Rosalie.}
Even on his and Mom’s wedding anniversary, he gave in just because Rosalie started crying.}]
At that time, Mom had already prepared a cake and dinner.”
When Rosalie woke up, she cried, saying she’d dreamed of her mother.”
She sobbed bitterly, and Dad had no choice but to comfort her.}]
то
make her happy, he even left Mom and me behind and took Rosalie straight to the amusement park.
That day, seeing the photos Rosalie sent me of her outing with Dad, Mom was heartbroken.}
“Alicia! Do you want Dad to kowtow to you some more?” My father’s shout snapped me back to reality.
Seeing him still kneeling on the floor made me feel uneasy.
“Come with me to the company.” I finally relented.§
My father’s face lit up with joy. He hurriedly stood and tried to take my hand.”
I pulled away, keeping a cold expression as I followed him to Webber Corporation by car.}]
Along the way, Dad kept flattering me.
“Alicia, your mother’s poisoning was truly an accident. Rosalie was just speaking nonsense–I’ve already punished her.“>>
“Aren’t you upset that Rowen gave your shares to Rosalie? I already told him not to do that. How could Rosalie compare to you?“>
I glanced at him, and intoned coldly, “Even if you don’t tell Rowen, if he dares to give those shares to Rosalie, I’ll sue them both.”
Rowen’s face suddenly stiffened at my words. He hadn’t expected me to be so blunt.
“Also, whether it was the maid who poisoned Mom or if it was you, I will find the proof.”
After saying this, I closed my eyes, unwilling to say another word.
After we got out of the car, I saw the media gathered outside Webber Corporation.}
“Alicia, just say a few words to the press. Say you misunderstood your father–you heard something wrong.“}
I curled my lips with a faint smile. “Who did I misunderstand? Are you saying it was Rosalie?”
“No!” Dad quickly waved his hands.”
“If you say that, Rosalie will be dragged through the mud by the media. Just say it was the maid who lied.”}
I stared at him, feeling a chill inside.
Even now, he was still making plans to protect Rosalie.}
“I understand.” I nodded, and with his hopeful gaze on me, I walked out.
Countless flashes instantly shone on my face.
Everyone there knew me–after all, I was the heiress of the Webber family since childhood and had always been seen alongside my father in society.”
Even though Rowen had stolen the ring symbolizing my status, my knowledge and poise were things Rosalie could never match.
Besides, the moment the ring was taken, I immediately contacted people I knew to declare the theft.
That was also why Rosalie’s claim to her identity was never recognized.
“Miss Alicia, we’ve heard you accused your father of poisoning your mother and framing her, but your father has denied this completely. Which is the truth?”
A microphone was held up to me, but I remained silent at first.}}
I turned and looked at Dad, hidden in the shadows.
His eyes were full of encouragement and pleading–he wanted me to help him.”
I looked back and suddenly laughed.”
Then I mouthed to him. “I’m not here to help you.”
Enjoying the ugly expression that crossed his face, I turned back to the media and declared loudly, “Everything I said before was true! My father is a murderer! I’ve already handed the evidence over to the police!”
