Chapter 234 Fiona
"Holding my last hope, I knelt and begged Fiona to let me go. She agreed and gave me the idea 'to make trouble.'
"As long as my parents were fed up with me, they would drive me out of the Lewis Villa.
"I thought this method was feasible, so at the instigation of Fiona, I broke all the dishes, smashed the precious pottery, and even burned the kitchen.
"In the beginning, my parents just punished me, but later they found it was useless, so they sent me to my grandma's house after my tenth birthday.
"When I left, my father was very reluctant to part with me, so he told me that if I could correct myself, he would take me back to the Lewis Villa.
"But actually, I didn't want to go back at all.
"What's more, Fiona didn't want me to go back.
"In order not to let me go back to the Lewis Villa, Fiona spoke ill of me in front of my parents and ruined my reputation. So my parents' impression of me became worse. In the end, my father let me live by myself, and they would not care about me.
"I had lived in my grandma's house for twelve years. When I was twenty-two years old, my grandmother passed away.
"It wasn't because of illness or accident. My grandma was pushed into the river by Fiona.
"That winter, my mother took Fiona to the countryside to see me, and she said she found a husband for me. But I said I didn't want to marry, so my mother left in anger, saying I was too stubborn.
"Grandma went to persuade my mother, and my mother told her all I did these years.
"But Grandma knew that Fiona lied to my mother, so Grandma went to Fiona to ask her why she treated me like this.
"At that time, I was watching not far away, and I also wanted to know the reason.
"Fiona said she didn't like me, and she thought I was born to be her enemy and came to steal our parents' love. Grandma slapped Fiona angrily, and then Fiona pushed Grandma into the river in a rage.
"The river water in winter was very bitter, so I quickly went into the water to save my grandma and asked Fiona to call for help, but Fiona ran away in a hurry.
"When I took my grandma ashore, she was already out of breath.
"During the funeral, my mother asked me in front of all my relatives and friends, 'How did grandma die?'
"I said, 'Ask Fiona.'
"I thought Fiona would kneel and ask our parents to forgive her.
"Unexpectedly, Fiona refused to admit the mistake and framed me. She told everyone that she saw me push my grandma into the river.
"She also cried and told everyone that when my grandma persuaded me to get married, I refused and quarreled with my grandma. Grandma slapped me in a rage, and I pushed my grandma into the river because of anger.
"Fiona did all of these, but she framed me.
"I couldn't argue and could only listen to everyone's accusations and insults. Finally, driven by my parents, I left the Lewis family.
"After I left home, I met Richard, an archaeologist. I had nowhere to go anyway, so I wandered around with him.
"In fact, I had always studied archaeology. When I was thirteen, my grandma was so poor that she gave me her jewelry and asked me to go to the pawn shop to exchange some money for food.
"It was that time I realized that there are many valuable things in this world. They can be found in the mountains and forests, and I can use them to get money without stealing or robbing.
"So I always went to dig holes in the mountains.
"In fact, at that time, I didn't understand that the things I dug were cultural relics left by tomb robbers.
"Some tomb robbers didn't bother to take those things because they were worthless, while others were thrown there because the tomb robbers didn't know the goods.
"The reason why my grandma and I had lived our life well for twelve years was all because of my treasure digging. Except for Grandma, no one else knows about it.
"In fact, the Lewis family gave me living expenses every month, but my grandma and I never received them. It must have been stolen by Fiona.
"Richard and I wandered outside for half a year. We gradually fell in love and promised to get married.
"We were about to get married, but the people from the Lewis family came to me suddenly. They said that Fiona met bandits while out for fun, and they hadn't heard from her for half a month.
"Fiona had a marriage with a man from the Ashford family, and it was near the wedding. But they couldn't find Fiona, so they had to ask me to pretend to be her. In fact, the Lewis family got expensive gifts from the Ashford family, and they were reluctant to return them, so they asked me to marry in the name of Fiona.
"On the day I got married, Richard and I hugged each other and cried. We didn't expect fate would play tricks on us like this..."
