Chapter 92 Does Your Conscience Hurt?
Facing Elaine's gaze, Erica could only continue to speak earnestly, "Aaron, this was originally just a small matter. Don't blame Elaine for this; it was Allison who orchestrated the whole thing."
Aaron remained expressionless, a bit impatient as he spoke, "I have something else to do, you can go now.”
Erica, feeling a bit panicked, said, "Aaron, there's something I want to tell you. Edward and the others will also come for the engagement this time."
She came specifically to personally inform Aaron of this matter.
For her, this engagement was really important.
After all, Aaron was divorcing Susanna, so she was the most suitable person for him, no one could compete with her.
Aaron lowered his gaze. "So what? This engagement was fake from the beginning, you know that better than anyone."
Erica's paused for a moment, a hint of pleading in her breath. "Aaron, can you please save me some face in front of my brother? After all, Austin thinks our engagement is real. If he finds out that it was just a transaction next week, and you didn't even show up, what if he changes his mind and doesn’t operate on Maria?"
Aaron's eyes were full of mockery, he didn't answer, just turned and walked away.
Erica stood in place, her eyes filled with unwillingness.
Beside her, Elaine was a bit anxious. "Erica, did you talk to Aaron about restoring my credit card or not?"
Erica was on the verge of tears. "Elaine, you’ve seen how he treats me, I'm afraid I can't help you much."
Elaine was a bit distressed. "Then what about my credit card? Do I really have to apologize to Susanna? It's more unbearable than killing me."
Elaine had always looked down on Susanna, always belittling her. Now being forced to apologize to her, Elaine felt like dying.
Although Erica was in a bad mood, her rationality was still intact. She immediately comforted Elaine, saying, "For now, you can use my credit card. Aaron will forget about this for a while. Susanna complained to him deliberately to emphasize that she is the victim. You will be played if you really go for Susanna."
Elaine was a bit unhappy. "But wouldn't this make Susanna happy? I'm not reconciled to this. Allison, that fool, can't even handle such a small matter. I even gave her two designer bags."
Erica felt speechless, in her eyes, Elaine was also a fool, unable to deal with Susanna.
But for now, she could only try her best to gain Elaine's support. After she married Aaron, she wouldn't have to deal with this kind of fool anymore.
Elaine suddenly remembered something. "Erica, when I went to see Susanna today, I found out that she was avoiding her foster parents who seemed like tough cookies. It will make her in trouble if Susanna is found by her foster parents."
A hint of amusement flashed in Erica's eyes. "That's a good idea. Only in this way can I bother her, who is protected Aaron and Maria."
"I wonder what's so special about Susanna anyway. I heard she was brought back from an orphanage before. How can a woman with such a humble background match Aaron?" Elaine sighed in a low voice.
When Erica heard the words 'orphanage,' her eyes instantly turned cold. After all, she also came from an orphanage, but she was much luckier than Susanna.
If she hadn't been smart, she would still be striving for life now.
But Erica quickly pushed these thoughts aside. After all, she was the heiress of the Jones family now, a noble lady for life!
In the end, Susanna could never compare to her.
After leaving Abbott's Group, Susanna took a last look at the magnificent building.
That night, when Susanna returned home, Madison held her hand and said, "Susanna, I have good news for you. The government may requisition the community where we used to live for the construction of public infrastructure, so we should receive compensation."
"Really?"
Susanna never expected to have unexpected gains. Was it a knock on wood?
Did she unexpectedly come into money when she needed it most??
Madison was also excited. "It's true. I went back to see the neighbors today specifically. They said the government has sent people over, and in a few days, they will have a meeting for us to give our opinions. I heard the government offers two options, either houses or money."
Susanna held Madison's hand. "This is good news. We'll think about how to decide later."
Madison reminded, "Susanna, your foster parents will eventually find out about this, probably causing a commotion. It's better to inform your brothers early and see who can make it over, so your foster mother won't gather their family to bully us."
Madison, who had been bullied for so many years due to her weak position, now wanted to stand up for herself. When Susanna's six brothers came to support her, she wanted to see who would dare to cause trouble.
Susanna understood her meaning and nodded. "Okay, I'll talk to my brothers later."
After dinner, Susanna washed up and lay in bed, sending a message in the WhatsApp group about the government requisitioning the community.
Aviana was the first to respond: [This is good news, Susanna, you're really lucky.]
Edward followed with praise: [Susanna is a little lucky star. I've sold so many houses recently, it must be because of Susanna.]
For a moment, all the brothers praised her.
Seeing these words, Susanna felt helpless, she replied: [This is not the point. The point is, my foster parents will definitely cause trouble when they find out about this. I wonder do you guys have time to come and help me.]
Edward: [I must come, I was planning to take a break these days.]
Arthur: [Perfect, I haven't taken my annual leave yet.]
Austin: [Coincidentally, I'm in Lindwell, I can come anytime.]
Brian: [I have a concert in Lindwell, I can come early.]
Daniel: [I can come for a business trip.]
Justin: [Just finished filming this movie, I can come for a vacation.]
Seeing the words of her six brothers, Susanna was very touched. She touched her belly, knowing that when her baby was born, she would have so many uncles caring for her, the baby would definitely not be bullied.
The next day, Susanna had no classes at school, so she went straight to the studio to work.
Now the most important thing for her was to make money.
Not long after Susanna entered the studio, she heard her foster parents' rough voices behind her. "Susanna, you little bitch, how dare you hide for so long!"
When she turned around and saw her foster parents, her expression changed significantly. "How did you find this place?"
They shouldn't know where she worked!
Her foster mother came forward and tugged her legs, crying. "Your brother has been forced into this state, aren't you guilty from hiding us?"
