Refusing To Be His Perfect Replica I Choose The Arranged Marriage

Chapter 410.

Adam was still there, and at this juncture, Alexander didn't want to cause trouble for Adam, so he didn't cause any excessive stimulation.

To be honest, seeing all the complex emotions Layla showed, all that he felt was disappointment. He did not understand how such a cute girl had turned into what she was.

"Has your face undergone plastic surgery?"

Even her face was less like Delilah's, more like the Li family. Alexander had too many questions to ask.noveldrama

"Yes." She was honest; as long as Alexander asked, she didn't hide at all.

"Why plastic surgery?"

Her eyes dodged, "I have nothing to say to you, this is not a place to stay, you can leave, pretend you have never seen me."

Alexander blocked her way, "You won't come back to the Sterling family, you won't recognize me as your brother, and you hurt Aveline, you should give me an explanation, why do you want to hurt the lives of innocent people? Clearly, when you were a child, you even raised a kitten that died and you did eat for some days. How did you end up like this?"

He remembered very clearly how sad Layla was at that time, to the point that Aveline had taken care of her for many years.

Layla chuckled softly, "Are you sure I was sad because of the kitten's death?"

She raised her chin, and the corners of her mouth curled up in a cold arc that he had never seen before, "I fed the kitten sleeping pills, it was really annoying that it cried every night, but it's just a pity that it only took three days of me feeding it, that it fell and died."

Apart from those eyes, Layla was completely like a stranger.

Even after Alexander had been by her side for several years, he didn't recognize her.

"Why kill it? If you don't like it, why didn't you have someone send it away?"

"If I send it away, who will accompany me? You were so busy back then, and Mom has always had intermittent episodes of mental illness, and Dad doesn't see anyone all year round. That cat was the only pastime I had."

The word she used was not playmate but pastime.

"Brother, in your eyes, have I always been a cute and well-behaved sister? Actually, I'm not. Don't you want to know what kind of person I am? Let me tell you."

Layla coldly hooked her lips, "Although the Sterling family is a top-notch family, whose mother is mentally ill. The father never shows up.

Grandpa only cared about stabilizing the family status, and grandma was his good helper. This family should always be the leader. They were all cold, only you were sincere to me, but you had to learn so much every day, how could you possibly care about me?"

"I've known since I was a child that I was different from the children of the same age around me. They all liked cats and dogs. They can react happily if they're given something delicious and interesting, but what have l experienced? Ever since I was three years old, I knew I had a

mother who has self-harmed hersel

f, and more than once."

When Layla said this, tears seemed to flash in her eyes. She raised her head slightly, not letting the tears fall.

"Brother, do you know what it feels like to have a mother covered in blood holding you in her arms, pinching your neck, saying that you shouldn't have come to this world?"

"Everyone in this world says that Mom loves her daughter, how could she want me to die? During your absence, she strangles me, dipped my head in the bathtub, and burned my hair with a lighter, She poked my nails with a toothpick, and she likes to torture me in places where others can't see. Every time she tortures me until I'm weak, and she goes to sleep satisfied, and wakes up the next day feeling nervous again.

She would hug me tightly, say sorry to me, and that she won't do it again."

"It's like domestic violence and cheating. Whenever she gets sick, she torments me, and I also got used to torturing kittens to vent."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

Alexander was full of self-blame. His mother's illness had been there for a long time, but he never knew that his sister had suffered such inhuman torture at such a young age.

"Will telling you cut off the mother-daughter bond between me and her? Unless, I leave the family."

Alexander stared at her in disbelief, "So, you left on your own?"
