Chapter 1234 Taking Advantage

Book:That Stranger Lying Beside Me Published:2024-6-1

“Smack!” A few red marks appeared on Ornard’s face and his bodyguard immediately stepped forward and restrained Veronica’s hands. She screamed while she struggled and she even bit bite the bodyguard.
The bodyguards’ hands were full of bite marks, but he didn’t dare to do anything to Veronica.
Ornard was sitting in the wheelchair and he raised his hand to touch his numbed face. He looked at Veronica gloomily, who was still thrashing around in the hospital bed for a long time. He then pushed the wheelchair forward and slapped Veronica in the face while he shouted, “Veronica! Wake up!”
Veronica spat out a mouthful of blood after being slapped on the face and stopped biting the bodyguard. She stared at Ornard for a while before shouting his name and bursting into tears.
Ornard took a tissue and wiped Veronica’s tears without saying a word. She then cried for a while before she stopped.
The nurse cleaned up the blood that Veronica had spat out in the room. Ornard motioned for the bodyguards to leave the ward before he began to ask Veronica, “What happened?”
She sobbed a few times. “Ornard, Callum bullied me! He and Emily are together again.”
“Did you get sick because of this?” Ornard’s voice was deep.
“I’m not angry because of this. I haven’t been feeling well these days, and I caught a cold and had a fever. When I heard that Callum and Emily were together, I was so angry that I asked the housekeeper to call him and tell him that I was sick. Callum, that bastard, didn’t even care about me. He even blamed the housekeeper for disturbing him and Emily. I was so angry that I wanted to…”
“You’ve known about Callum and Emily from the start, so why are you so angry?”
Ornard frowned. He had just been slapped in the face, so he was sceptical about what Veronica had said. He felt that she had just deliberately slapped her, but there was no evidence. Ornard controlled himself and complained, “Veronica, do you know that you’re making things worse for you if you get angry?”
“I know! I understand the reason and I’m not angry that Callum and Emily are together. I’m just angry that I didn’t kill Emily that year. If I had killed her then, I wouldn’t have been humiliated like this.”
Veronica’s face was full of resentment. Ornard knew her temperament well and he understood that she would be willing to do anything once she went mad. Ornard sighed and said, “What should I say to you?”
“Ornard, when can you carry out your plan? When can you deal with the Floyd family?”
“Being anxious won’t get us anywhere and this plan must be carried out slowly. We have been waiting for so many years, so two more days doesn’t mean much.”
Veronica said fiercely, “But I can’t wait! I hate the Floyd family to death and I want them to die!”
“Calm down. Let’s wait until Angel’s plan succeeds. She’s pregnant now, so we’ll start our plan once she marries Richard and goes against William.”
“Angel is pregnant? This is a good thing! I’ll listen to you and wait a little longer.”
“That’s right. We have planned this for so many years, so we can’t be anxious and we have to take it slow. When we succeed, we will kill Callum and Emily as you like.”
Ornard changed the subject and said after he persuaded Veronica, “Someone may be moving into our house soon.”
“Who is it?” Veronica asked.
“It’s Gurmisran’s relatives, she’s a young girl with a child. Since Gurmisran had been serving me for so many years, I arranged for him to live at home.”
“What? Are they his family?” Veronica was surprised.
“More or less! I’m just informing you, so don’t ask too much about it. After all, everyone has privacy, so leave some space for each other.”
“I know! I won’t be so ignorant. By the way, what’s the name of Gurmisran’s mistress?”
“She’s called Aurora!” Ornard replied with a straight face.
Veronica’s face changed and Ornard saw it clearly. “Do you know her?”
“I don’t, but I just feel that her name seems very familiar.” Veronica squeezed out a smile, but her hands under the quilt were clenched into fists.
Aurora! Just a few hours ago, she received a piece of news that Ornard had a mistress named Aurora outside and he had a two-year-old child with her.
Veronica was so angry that she fainted when she saw the photo of Ornard and Aurora snuggled up to each other.
She was so angry that she was hospitalized and she saw Ornard visiting her when she woke up. Veronica hated him to the extreme, so she gave him a slap in the face to vent her anger.
Veronica finally woke up they slapped each other.
Ornard didn’t suspect her at all after she said a few vague excuses to him.
However, she never dreamed that Ornard would treat her like this. Not only did he marry Paisley, but he would also bring his mistress and illegitimate child home.
Veronica hated Ornard so much that she wanted to kill him and she subconsciously showed her emotions. However, she immediately adjusted her mood when Ornard found out.
Ornard and Aurora’s relationship was very secretive and no one else knew about it except Gurmisran. Ornard didn’t think much of Veronica’s reaction. “Her name is very popular, so it’s normal for you to have heard of it.”
“Yes, I know a few people who have the name.” Veronica obviously did not want to continue the conversation. “Okay, enough about Aurora! When will you leave the hospital?”
“I’ll be discharged tomorrow! It’s too annoying to rest here and it’s better to go home.”
Veronica dug her nails deeply into her palm when she heard that Ornard would be discharged from the hospital.
Was Ornard leaving the hospital because he wants his mistress and illegitimate child to move in?
He actually hid all of this from her. Although Veronica was filled with hatred, she had a smile on his face. “It’s really inconvenient to be in the hospital. You should be discharged as soon as possible to recuperate.”
Veronica leaned against the hospital bed and thought for a while after Ornard left. He thought of her relationship with Ornard and the terrible things she had done for him.
How could she believe that Ornard had been using her all along? She was really stupid!
Veronica’s anger was intensifying and she didn’t want to be abandoned by Ornard after being used by him.
Ornard had gone too far this time! Not only did he marry Paisley behind her back, but he also secretly had another mistress and even had an illegitimate child.
Since Ornard wasn’t kind to her, then he shouldn’t blame her for getting even.
It was impossible for him to live a good life with his mistress and son!
She would never let Ornard live peacefully and she wanted to make him pay the price. After she thought hard for a moment, she suddenly thought of a good way to deal with him
Weren’t Ornard and Paisley married? That bitch probably didn’t know about Ornard’s affair with his mistress and illegitimate child as well.
She had to tell the Anthony family about this because she wanted Paisley to deal with Aurora and the child.
Paisley was not an easy person to deal with, so she would definitely kill Aurora and the child. At that time, Veronica would be able to benefit from it.
