Chapter 206
Even though the matter between Alexander and Nora had been set in stone, knowing about it was one thing, seeing it was another.
Aveline’s eyes were fixed on the man who walked out of the room, and their gazes met in the air. Alexander’s black pupils flashed with a hint of surprise, and he opened his mouth as if to explain something, but in the end, he didn’t say a word.
Elizabeth spoke up. “Alexander, did you sleep well last night? If you’re not used to it, I’ll have someone customize a suitable mattress for you. After all, you’ll be sleeping here often after you get married. Treat this place as your own home, and feel free to ask for anything you need.”
At this moment, Nora also put on a show of maternal love and filial piety, with a gentle smile on her face. “Mom is so considerate. Alexander and I really didn’t sleep well last night.”
When Nora said this, a hint of shyness flashed across her face, indicating that there was more to her
words.
Aveline finally understood the significance of this breakfast scene. It turned out that Elizabeth didn’t
really miss her. She deliberately called her over just to intimidate her, to make her realize the reality and give up.
How ironic.
Her birth mother was now all smiles, welcoming her stepdaughter. She remembered all of her stepdaughter’s preferences, but couldn’t even remember the kind of breakfast she liked.
Perhaps her birth was just an accident.
Before, Aveline used to think that her birth mother must have had her own reasons. After all, where
in the world would a mother not love her daughter? Now, she realized that there really were women
like that in the world.
It was because she didn’t love her that she never knew her own preferences.
And Nora was the daughter of the man she loved, so she naturally had to do everything to please her.
Aveline looked at the family of four, and from beginning to end, she felt like an outsider.

Chapter 206
It turned out that being betrayed by Alexander
s not the most painful thing. The most pain thing was having the knife in her chest pulled out by a woman she had been thinking about for over
a decade.
Before she could eve
catch her breath, that woman aimed the knife at her chest again, repeatedly torturing her already scarred wounds.
Aveline coldly withdrew her gaze from them, feeling nauseated just looking at the people standing
here.
“Mrs. Kingsley, I wish you all the best now that you’ve finally achieved your wish. Since you have a new life now, please don’t bother me anymore.”
After speaking, Aveline turned around decisively to leave, but Elizabeth hurriedly grabbed her hand.
“Aveline, you’ve misunderstood Mom. Mom did this just to untie the knot between you and Nora, as your Uncle Adam said, we are a family.”
Aveline sneered, “My surname is Blackwood, not Kingsley.”
“Aveline, why are you still so stubborn, just like when you were a child? Can’t you be more tolerant?” Elizabeth scolded with a stern face. “If you could manage your marriage well, how could it have reached the point of divorce? Now Alexander and Nora are together, you need to face reality and stop clinging to the past.”
Aveline was so angry that her stomach ached, and her temples throbbed. She even felt like she was
hearing things.
Were these the words a birth mother should say?
Aveline pinched her
saying alm to force herself to calm down, looking into Elizabeth’s eyes a word by word, “So in your eyes, it’s my fault that I’m clinging to Alexander? Everything is my fault?”
