Chapter 887 Bernard gazed at the woman in the wheelchair, the same woman who had once brought him endless pain, with an emotionless face. He said coldly.
âI once tried to please you.â
When he was six, he imitated his brother in a desperate attempt to earn a sliver of motherly love. On Donnaâs birthday, he bought her favorite cake and ran excitedly to Donna. âMom, I got your favorite cake. I wish you health and happiness forever.â
But Donna didnât respond with the same tenderness she showed his brother. She didnât take the cake, and she patted his head gently Instead, she kicked him away, crushing the cake with her high heels, all the while cursing. âEven if the bastard buys me something, I wouldnât eat it even if it was to feed the dogâ
Until yesterday. Bernard could not understand why Donna was so cruel to him. But now that he knew the truth, he felt relieved.
They werenât mother and son. How could he ever hope to get a shred of motherly love from Donna?
Donna seemed to recall Bernardâs attempts to please her too, but that flicker of emotion vanished in an instant.
She would never see him as her son. She kept him alive only for revenge, for torture, and for venting.
To her, Bernard was always just a tool to alleviate her pain Donât expect her to have any feelings for him.
Donna built a high wall in her heart, but when she saw Bernardâs face, so similar to Leonard Laurenceâs, she slowly lowered her proud head.
Was she wrong? Really wrong?
No, she was wrong.
She exposed Tammie Pine as a member of the Pine family to get Leonard Laurence. She was the one who broke them apart first, then blatantly hinted to Blake that she was the one fit to be Leonard Laurenceâs wife.
Blake proposed a business marriage to the Stanley family; otherwise, she wouldnât have had the chance to marry the man she had been in love with for so long.
She thought Leonard Laurence would forget Tammie Pine once he married her. But he drank every day and night, calling Tammie Pineâs pame in his dreams.
Other than the one time when he was drugged on their wedding day, he never touched her again. Even seeing her made him feel guilty toward Tammie Pine.
She couldnât stand her husbandâs heart and eyes filled with another woman. Every day was like a mental breakdown, quarreling with him until he left.
The next news she got was that Tammie Pine was pregnant with his child. His explanation was that he forced Tammie Pine, and it had nothing to do with her. This was undoubtedly a greater blow. She couldnât even force him to touch her, yet he would travel a long distance to force someone else.
How much did he hate her?
Since then, Donna had begun to hate Leonard Laurence. She swore that she would never let them have a good life, including their child!
She succeeded in the end, but suddenly, she couldnât tell right from wrong...
She looked at Bernard and the woman beside him. The little kindness in her heart disappeared, replaced by evil.
No matter what, Bernard shouldnât have defied Dominic Laurenceâs last wish and married the woman he loved, so...
Let him carry the label of illegitimate childâ and live a tough life!
After finding out that Donna was the one who set the fire, Bernard no longer struggled with the issue of right or wrong and continued to ask, âSince you set the fire, why was Dominic in the room?â
Thinking of Dominic, Donna slowly lowered her eyes to her own legs, which were crushed by a beam. âWho would have thought that he would run into Leonardâs room in the middle of the night?â
If she hadnât learned from the butler that Dominic was in that bastardâs room, how could she, who was cheering from afar, have rushed into the fire?
After all the doubts in Bernardâs heart were resolved, he asked the second question: âThe second thing is that the medicine Leonard took before he died was switched. Who did it?â
Upon hearing this, the cold and ruthless look in Donnaâs eyes vanished in an instant, and even her face turned pale.
This matter seemed to have touched Donnaâs most painful past, causing her to slump weakly in her chair.
After a while, she slowly started to say, âIt was me.â
