Chapter 232 Seven Lives
Annabel was so persistent, so they had to think of another way.
Ivy touched her forehead, pretended to be sad, and said, "Alexander, I can't marry you because Fiona is in charge of all matters in the Ashford family now!
"She didn't want me to be with you from the beginning. So she scolded me and stabbed me with scissors. I'm still afraid when I think about it. If I didn't have medical skills, I would have been disfigured now!"
Annabel watched Ivy in shock, and she couldn't believe that Fiona had stabbed Ivy with scissors.
Alexander pretended to sigh helplessly. "Oh! That fake grandma is so powerful, and no one can match her!
"When I was eight years old, my grandpa passed away. Within a few days, my parents, my uncle and aunt, and my siblings all died in a car accident. I was the only one left at home, and I couldn't be against her. Since I was a child, she beat and scolded me, and I didn't dare to disobey her at all..."
Saying this, Alexander took a peek at Annabel and sighed more sadly. "Well, Ivy, after we go back, my grandma and I can only go to the small hotel to live with you!"
Annabel's eyes widened, and her thoughts were stuck in what Alexander said before.
"Alexander, what did you just say? Who passed away?"
"Grandma..."
When Alexander mentioned the deceased relatives, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
Then he talked about the painful experience sadly.
"When I was eight years old and still in the second grade, I was at school one day, and the butler came to pick me up with red eyes. I didn't know what happened at that time.
"Only when I arrived at the scene did I know that my parents, uncle and aunt, and their twin children all died in a car accident in the same car. The scene was horrible.
"At that time, I was very sad and didn't know why such an accident would happen to my family. Moreover, just half a month before this, my grandpa suddenly died of an illness.
"In less than a month, Seven people from the Ashford family died suddenly, and they were all my closest relatives. At that time, I felt this was the end of the world, and I was always worried that I would also die unexpectedly one day.
"My relatives died one after another. As an eight-year-old, I had nightmares and lived in fear every day.
"At that time, I didn't know Grandma staying with me was fake. She coaxed me but also scolded and beat me when she was angry. Although she acted like this, I still cherish her.
"Because I thought Grandma was my last relative, and I couldn't lose her anymore. So I respected her and obeyed what she said. To make her happy, I did many things I didn't want.
"Maybe, because of this, I can survive until now..."
When Alexander said that, his tearful eyes looked at Annabel. "Grandma, seven people had died. Don't you think it's strange?"
Annabel clenched her fists tightly, and her eyes were full of murderous intent.
"Did Fiona do it? But she can't be so cruel..."
Annabel was still unwilling to believe that seven people from the Ashford family were killed by Fiona.
"She is a murderous demon!"
Alexander said with tears, "Grandma, until yesterday, I always thought Fiona was my real grandma. But she kept hurting me, Ivy, and Ivy's family. And she never cared about my feelings.
"Fiona has a daughter named Hailey Davis and a grandson named Leo. Fiona and Hailey were always biased towards Leo regardless of what happened between me and Leo.
"I had always wondered why they treated me differently. I didn't know Fiona has a twin sister until I found a photo of you and Fiona last night.
"And Fiona is not my real grandma.
"Grandma, if I don't go to the Lewis Villa to find the truth today, I will never have the chance to meet you!
"Now I suspect that the death of my grandpa, parents, uncle, aunt, and younger brother and sister are all related to Fiona. But it has been 20 years, and I can't find any evidence.
"Grandma, can you tell me what happened at that time? I want to know the truth and let Fiona pay the price! For the sake of seven people from the Ashford family..."
