Chapter 233 the Lewis Family
Everyone was shocked when they heard such a thing. They didn't expect that there was such a dark side behind the Ashford family.
"Fiona... she has a daughter. But Fiona was raped by bandits..."
Annabel finally began to tell the truth and confessed all the things that happened many years ago.
Alexander knew he could collect evidence, so he immediately turned on the recording function on his phone.
Annabel let out a long breath and fell into a long memory.
"Since childhood, Fiona had always loved to win, eager to get the attention of adults. For this reason, she practiced all kinds of talents in piano, chess, and painting.
"Everyone in our family appreciated and valued Fiona very much. She was like a dazzling pearl, illuminating the Lewis family.
"In the Lewis family, Fiona could get everything she wanted. No matter how young she was, there was nothing she couldn't do.
"The reason why she had such a high status had to start with my father.
"My father, Lord Lewis, was a rich man in the village. He was very romantic and had countless women. These women gave birth to twenty-one sons but no daughters.
"Later, he met my mother, Laura, who gave birth to me and Fiona. And Lord loved us very much. Other families doted on their sons, but the Lewis family only doted on daughters.
"In fact, since we were born, we had the same temperament as Laura.
"Laura was a well-known and fierce woman in the village, and she was also a widow. She could fight and swear, and her ex-husband was tortured to death by her.
"Laura's family was very poor, and she always wanted to change her fate. When she heard Lord wanted daughters, she said she could have twin daughters. After marrying Lord, she really gave birth to twin daughters.
"Lord had loved her very much ever since.
"My sister Fiona and I have inherited my mother's unruliness, but Fiona pretended to be patient. To make everyone admire and appreciate her, Fiona patiently learnt piano, chess, painting, and other crafts.
"But I didn't want to learn these, and I was only interested in practicing martial arts.
"So, my father found a coach in martial arts who taught me martial arts.
"At the end of the new year, when I was nine years old, the Lewis family organized a family banquet, and all my father's women and sons attended. Lord wanted to show off his daughters, so he let Fiona and I go on stage to show our best skills.
"Fiona demonstrated all her skills in piano, chess, painting, and everything she knew. And she received countless compliments.
"At that time, I also longed to be recognized by others, and I didn't want to lose, so I performed all the martial arts with swords, guns, and sticks.
"On the stage, I got everyone's applause and attention. Everyone thought that I was better than Fiona.
"From then on, Fiona had conflicts with me. She framed me many times and made me embarrassed in front of my parents and relatives more than once.
"Gradually, Lord didn't like me anymore. And he thought it was wrong for me to learn martial arts. He fired my coach and forced me to learn the same skills as Fiona.
"But I couldn't do those things at all. So I suffered all kinds of abuse from Fiona and disdain from my family.
"They called me stupid and said I couldn't do anything but fight.
"Fiona always pretended to be kind in front of others. But when no one was around, she insulted me in various ways, like poking me with needles and scalding my hands with burning candle oil.
"I am a martial artist, so if I resisted, she would injure. Then, I would be forced to accept punishments.
"I was less than ten years old at that time, but I lived a miserable life every day. And only I knew the pain.
"I wanted to run away from home more than once, but every time I escaped, I would be caught by my parents..."
