The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 353 They Deserve No Mercy (Part One)

"Why are you in such a hurry? I haven't said anything yet." Aron sneered.

"I know you hate me, Aron. But this is between a mother and a daughter today. Please keep your nose

out of this and I would appreciate it." Wendy tried her best to act properly. Yet Aron only scoffed at what

she had just said.

He gazed at Wendy and said, "Auntie, I just could not bear to see someone suffer wrongful treatment in

front of me. It is my principle of being. And I think it might due to... my own experience in my childhood.

At the sight of something like this, I could not help but think of being wrongly accused of stealing when I

was a child."

"Mrs. Gu, may we know who he is…" Many reporters were not familiar with Aron for he rarely appeared

in front of the media. Nevertheless, a few reporters recognized Aron immediately.

"Well, he is……" Clenching her fist, Wendy very nervously looked towards at Aron. She was at a loss

how she should introduce him to the public.

"Hey everyone, I'm Aron Gu. I am Mrs. Gu's…… stepson." Turning his face to the reporters, Aron

revealed, "Yvonne is my half sister. And her mother Wendy Ye, who is now standing in front of you all,

slept with my father more than twenty years ago. There may be a lot of people who know nothing about

this. But, my mother, with a broken heart, died because of this affair."

"Aron, please stop!" In an instant, Wendy was near the point of breaking down. The secret that she had

locked away for more than twenty years, was now being openly exposed to the public by Aron. Looking

at the contemptuous and judgmental eyes of the people around her, Wendy felt that she was almost

going off the deep end.

"Stop?" With a sneer, Aron continued, "She tried hard to attach herself to my father that very year,

though she knew perfectly well that my father had a wife. And you might guess what for? Wasn't it

because of my father's money? My mother could not bear that my father had an affair and died out of

depression. What was even worse, Wendy wrongly accused me, an innocent kid at that time, of

stealing. And my father threw me out because of her vicious lies. She did that on purpose, because she

was afraid that I would fight her for my share of his wealth. A woman like her, with such a twisted and

wicked mind, dares to do anything evil."

"Aron Gu, just stop talking nonsense here." What Aron had just said made Yvonne and Wendy diffident

and angry. They never thought he would appear at this event. "You must be saying these out of hatred

for my mother. Because she was the one who found out your habit of stealing. You are taking your

revenge on her today on purpose, aren't you?"

"Well…" With himself turning to address the public, Aron asked, "What would you do as parents if your

child stole something?"

"For my own kid, I would beat him first, and then teach him well of course, " a reporter blurted out. He

had just become a father lately.

Aron smiled. "Exactly! Normally, parents would teach their children well in case they make the same

mistake again. But this Mrs. Gu did not. She only incited Simon, that's my father's name, to throw me

out. Luckily, my grandparents took me in and they have taken care of me ever since. They were the

ones who raised me into adulthood."

"Not long ago, Simon told me that he would hand over the company to me, because I am the only son

in the family. However, this Mrs. Gu was not willing to make that happen. She said that the Gu's Group

was founded and operated both by her and Simon, and she would take a share of the company." With

a quick pause, Aron sneered, "I might as well tell you all here that the Gu's Group investment capital

came mostly from my mother's dowry. Thus, the Gu's Group would not grow to where it is today without

my mother's contribution. I do not want the right of management of it, but...... my mother's dowry, Mrs.

Gu, please give it back to me, " Aron said as he turned to Wendy.

"My mother died because of you. And you've commandeered her position of Mrs. Gu for so many

years. It would be too inhumane to commandeer her dowry as well, wouldn't it?" Aron cared nothing

about the money or the company at all. He just wanted to pound Wendy with such embarrassment.

"Aron, you asshole!" Knowing that the media would never believe in her and her mother any more,

Yvonne went quickly straight at Aron and shouted angrily, "Stop talking nonsense here!" She took a

swing at him and hit him perversely.

"Enough yet?" At the beginning, Aron endured her punches and kicks as she was a girl after all.

However, Yvonne became excessive. With a frown, Aron could not help but stop Yvonne with his hand.

"You are acting like you used to be when you were a child. What did Mrs. Gu do to your education?"

"Aron, what do you want from me exactly?" The embarrassed Wendy shouted, looking at Aron angrily.

She made no attempt to hide her outrage any longer. She was losing face fast and she was getting

desperate.

"I said I only had two intentions here. First, to let the public know the truth. And second, I want my

mother's dowry back. Am I understood?" Aron sneered even more. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

"You can't do that, Aron. The Gu's Group is now suffering from a slump. It would totally ruin the Gu's

Group if I give the money back to you." Wendy said nervously to Aron, caring nothing about how the

people around looked at her any more.

As soon as they heard that, everyone at the event were able determine the truth so far. It turned out

that Wendy was the one who was cheating everyone all this time. And what Arthur, Autumn and Aron

said were all true.

How horrible it was! How could there be such a cruel mother in this world?

"Mrs. Gu, did you just admit it right now?" a reporter asked. Only then did Wendy realize that the fish

had finally been caught in the mouth.

She stood there with a straight face, silent, as if she had blacked out and fallen into despair.

Yvonne could not help getting at Aron again. "It's all because of you! You had left that year. Why did

you come back? Without you, dad would not hand over the company to you. Such things wouldn't have

happened. Why did you come back?"

Now out of control, Yvonne tried to threaten Aron, "I am warning you, every penny of the Gu's Group

belongs to me. Don't you dare take anything away from it."

It seemed that Autumn and her birthday was forgotten at that moment. The reporters were busing

asking Aron questions about the company and the money.

And now everyone had seen the truth.

Autumn was quietly watching on the side all this time. She did not want to go out to help at all. In her

view, Wendy and Yvonne deserved to suffer from their own actions. And they were just not worthy of

anyone's sympathy.

"When are you gonna stop this insanity?" All of a sudden, above the noise and confusion, the angry

voice of Simon came from the door.

It turned out that Charles had made a call to Simon. Arriving in a hurry, Simon was able to witness

Wendy and Yvonne getting mad because of his properties. He was so angry that he almost fainted.

Trying hard to hold back his anger, Simon came up to Wendy and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Simon, I……" Confused and afraid, Wendy looked at Simon anxiously and tried to explain, "Aron and I

were talking about the Gu's Group. I was just saying on impulse……"
