The Queen They Buried

Chapter 109

In Ronald’s eyes, Aubree used to be utterly nothing but an embarrassment to the family. Any time she acted out, it was just “making trouble.” But now that she’s useful to him, her defiance is suddenly brushed off as merely “a child acting up.”

He had double standards down to a fine art.

He asked, “Your birthday is coming up soon. Don’t you want the dress your mother specially designed for you?”

Aubree, who had turned to leave, paused mid-step.

Ronald smirked triumphantly. He knew Aubree all too well, she might talk about cutting ties, but deep down, he felt that she was just fishing for their attention.

He added, “At your birthday celebration, I’ll have your registration transferred to our family, change your surname to Wilson, and publicly announce that you are the legitimate daughter of the Wilson family.”

As Aubree turned away, her eyes glinted with undisguised scorn. She thought, ‘If anyone in the Wilson family is truly formidable, it’s not Daxton or Bryan, it’s Ronald, the one who really holds all the power.’

Ronald was the epitome of self-interest. Sons or daughters meant nothing to him, only those who could bring him value were worthy of consideration.
