The Abandoned Wife

Chapter 1021 Pain

That very night, Gina and her husband brought Aubree back to the Pearson residence. "You got hurt. Just stay at home for the time being," Gina said to her daughter as she sat on the edge of the bed. There was a strange expression on her face.

Aubree glanced at Gina as fury rose in her heart. "My plan backfired, so you don't want me to head out and get mocked by others, do you?"

Despite sharing their sentiments, Aubree was disappointed to be raised by such parents. Besides, they didn't offer her any help at all. Gina stiffened for a few moments before regaining her composure. "How could you say that? I'm worried about you. Look, your leg is hurt. There's no way you can go out like this."

Aubree gritted her teeth and balled her fists. She refused to admit defeat.

Gina was about to say something when Aubree announced angrily, "No. This has to get out!"
