Chapter 106: The Tree and the Fruit
Arriving at Esther's office, Anya knocked on the door: "Mrs. Reina, I heard that you are looking for me?" β
Rena turned around and looked at Anya coldly: "Anya, since you and Aiden have been together, your personality seems to have deteriorated, and you made me wait for so long." β
"I'm just entertaining customers in the store, I can't leave them. I apologize for the inconvenience. Anya said politely.
Rena just scoffed at Anya's apology.
"I just started working at this place a few days ago and am still on probation and afraid to leave my clients, I'm sorry. What can I do for you? She continued.
"You know what I want. Martha: Because you're at the police station. Why am I looking for you? Of course you know why! Reyna replied angrily.
Obviously, who wouldn't understand that Rena was here to help her daughter? But she seems to have forgotten that she is now asking for help.
In this case, Reyna is still arrogant, as if she is above everyone. It was as if Anya was just a humble woman who was not worthy of her. She didn't think that now only Anya could save her daughter.
"Are you here to apologize on behalf of Martha?" Anya asked deliberately.
"You ......" Irena was enraged by the question, "why did Martha apologize to you?" What did she do to you? β
"Do you really not know, or do you pretend not to know?" Anya asked, returning Reina's gaze.
"What do you want? Money? "Like most rich people, Reyna is used to throwing money at it.
For her, money solves everything, especially when it comes to a poor woman like Anya.
However, the woman standing in front of her was no longer the Anya she once knew.
"Are you going to write me a check and have Martha get it back when she gets out of prison?" Anya's face turned cold, and she didn't even bother to say a kind word to her, because she knew that the woman in front of her didn't deserve to be treated politely.
What kind of tree bears what kind of fruit.
She understood why Martha had grown into the woman she is today. It's all because her mother has the same traits.
When Anya's words arrived, Rena's face changed, and a trace of panic emanated from her body, but she tried to stay calm, "I don't understand what you mean. β
"Really? Or are you pretending not to understand? I'm no longer seventeen-year-old Anya, blinded by your son's fake love, and nothing you're doing now can change anything. I don't want your money. I just want to hold Martha accountable for what she did. If Martha doesn't want to apologize, leave her in jail and think about her mistakes. Anya said coldly.
Reyna held back her anger, her body trembled, and shouted at Anya, "Anya! When you were ten years old, you deliberately pushed your stepmother down, causing her to have a miscarriage. If I hadn't protected you then, your father would have killed you. That's how you're going to repay me?? β
"I remember your kindness at the time, and for three years, I endured all the treatment that your family gave me." Anya said with a wry smile.
"My family's treatment? My family has never done anything bad to you! Rena continued to play dumb.
"Three years ago, someone robbed a check, and I immediately called the police, but the case has not been closed yet. Robbery is a felony punishable by up to ten years in prison. Anya explained confidently. She deliberately avoided the topic, causing Reyna to panic even more.
"I don't know if Martha told you about it, Aiden helped me find out who cashed the check." Anya said casually.
"What?!" Reyna stood up from her chair.
"I didn't tell Madeka to make him think I broke up with him for the money. But you don't have to play dumb in front of me. I'm not a naΓ―ve girl, lonely and stupid, you can cheat like you did three years ago. Anya's voice sounded cold.
Reyna didn't expect Aiden to help Anya investigate the check.
She can't hide it anymore, and the secret will soon be revealed. So she glared at Anya fiercely and said, "What do you want?"
Anya discovered that this woman, who had been a helper since she was a child, turned out to be so dirty at heart.
She used to see the woman in front of her as an angel who could do everything for her son and daughter.
But now, she could see it clearly.
The true face of the woman in front of her, this woman is as cunning as a fox.
"Tell Martha to admit her mistake and apologize to me in front of the media. If you are willing to what happened three years ago, in order to ruin my reputation, I will re-investigate the robbery that happened to me. Maybe I can't find anything, but Aiden can help me figure it all out! Anya threatened.
Rena scoffed at Anya's words: "Do you think Aiden will fight the Ma family for you?" β
Anya wasn't sure, but she knew that now she couldn't go back, she had to push Reyna and panic.
"Do you want to try?" Anya said with a smile.
"You're ......" Reyna stomped her foot in anger.
She heard that Aiden had canceled his engagement to the An family for the sake of this woman. Angel Sue and Ann Li were also punished for making Aiden angry.
Everyone said Aiden was blind, cruel, and perverted. However, Anya seems to be living a very happy life.
In fact, she is spoiled by Aiden, who is willing to do anything for Anya.
It seems that Rena has been underestimating Anya all along.
"Anya, Martha is my only daughter, if she makes any mistakes, you can tell me immediately, I will teach her a good lesson when I go home, but you can't let her be at the police station." When Reyna realizes that she can't defeat Aiden, she tries to soften her voice.
She stepped forward and shook Anya's hand, as if to show her mother's warmth in front of her.
"The relationship between the Ma family and the An family is very close, have you forgotten how I treated you in the first place? You used to be very close to Madeka, and if you treat Marks and Tha, isn't that equivalent to hurting Madeka? Reyna continued to try to convince Anya to drop the charges against Martha.
"Of course, I remember all your kindness, so when Martha was presumptuous in front of me, I held back. But this time the situation was different, Marks and Spa, saying that I received some money to break up with Madeka, but still slandered me for having an affair with Madeka while Aiden was abroad. She even said that I locked Madeka overnight, so he didn't come home. β
"Is it my fault that your son didn't come home overnight? Did I kidnap him? Martha said this in front of everyone, and everyone saw me like a cheap woman. Anya said as she pulled her hand out of Rena's hand.
"Thankfully, Aiden trusted me and sent his assistants and lawyers, who might have kicked me out of his life if it had been some other man. I just want to hold Martha accountable and restore my good name. Is there something wrong? She continued.
Rena frowned and said, "Martha doesn't have a boyfriend yet." If she barely shows herself in public, what man would want to marry her? β
"Then, wouldn't it be better for me to suffer and be humiliated by your daughter in public? Let me be the one who is humiliated and no man wants to marry me? β
"Of course not, if you are with Aiden, even if you don't marry him, you will have enough for the rest of your life!" Reyna replied.
Anya heard Raisa's answer, but was silent. Indeed, everyone always cares about her private affairs and does not care about the fate of others, she doesn't care about Anya's fate, as long as Martha is okay.
"Why don't I explain it to the media?" When Rena realizes Anya's insistence, she compromises.
Her plan is the same as Madeka's, and both have very similar personalities.
But Anya is a soft-hearted woman after all, and she can't bear to look at the woman in front of her, constantly begging for her spoiled child, which reminds her of her mother: "I'll think about it." β
"How long are you going to think?" Rena continued to urge Anya: "Martha has been spoiled since she was a child, she can't spend the night in prison......"
