Richest Mogul

Chapter 1727

Opal now had an intense dislike for Alina, convinced she was nothing more than a manipulative vixen who had ruined their family's peace. When Alina mentioned Lulu, Opal's face darkened further.

"If it weren't for you running their relationship, do you think Lulu would have stayed away after Theodore's car accident? She even called you. Lulu is just too kind."

Warren chimed in with equal displeasure, his tone stern. "Theodore's condition is still uncertain. He's in surgery."

Moments ago, Alina could convince herself to excuse their hostility as worry for their son. Now, she felt no need to justify it.

They clearly didn't like her. They preferred Theodore's fiancée, Lulu, which explained why Theodore kept vacillating between them.

Taking a deep breath, Alina said evenly, "I don't know how Theodore explained our relationship to you, but I didn't interfere in his engagement."

"If you weren't intent on being with him, why would you come to the hospital?" Opal's voice was sharp, and her beliefs were unshakable.

Alina felt humiliated. "If you have any doubts, you can ask Theodore when he wakes up."

Just as she finished speaking, her gaze shifted, and she suddenly spotted Skylar. Her face turned pale in an instant.
