Trading My Ex for His Uncle by Hello Spring

Chapter 1303

Mary looked at Vik expressionlessly. "Of course. He was ready to make you pay for Brian's leg. Do you still see him as your father?"

Vik's expression shifted. After a long pause, he finally spoke. "But... he used to treat us well..."

Mary let out a cold laugh. "He did treat us well in the past, but didn't we treat him well, too?"

But today, she had come to a painful realization: no matter what, she and Vik would never compare to Brian and Emerald in Edward's heart.

Even after Emerald and Brian drugged him and nearly killed him, Edward had chosen to stand by them. If that were the case, then Mary wouldn't hesitate to be ruthless either.
