Chapter 421: Your Intelligence...
"How could it be because of this matter?"
Benson Abbott showed a disapproving look: "After all, Aurora and I are father and daughter. Aurora, believe me, when I found out about those things, I was serious. I really didn’t know why your mom—"
Aurora Sutton was too disgusted to listen any further: "Don’t tell me, you didn’t know after my mom gave birth to me, and after my mom hung herself, was I still swapped by someone around you?"
Upon hearing the word ’swap,’ Benson Abbott mournfully said: "I truly wasn’t aware of your being swapped back then. But thankfully, you lived well in the Sutton Family, so I was relieved."
As he spoke, he suddenly turned his gaze to Thea Shaw: "Just that this poor Miss Shaw, but don’t worry, Miss Shaw. Regarding Aurora’s matter, our Abbott Family will definitely compensate you well."
Aurora Sutton suddenly pursed her lips, realizing that Benson Abbott had sinister intentions.
He suddenly brought up the swap issue with such a tone, wasn’t he just trying to sow discord?
If Thea Shaw felt any sting in her heart, how could she be happy hearing Benson Abbott say such things?
Listening to Benson Abbott’s nonchalant words, while feeling disgusted, Aurora Sutton instinctively looked at Thea Shaw.
If Thea Shaw were easily provoked by a word or two from Benson Abbott, then all her years of self-cultivation would be in vain.
She knew at a glance what Benson Abbott was plotting.
Indeed, outsiders had no idea how good her relationship with Aurora Sutton was.
In the eyes of outsiders, the Sutton Family now had two swapped children.
In such matters, surely the parties involved would carry some prick in their hearts, so everyone assumed that Aurora Sutton and Thea Shaw’s relationship should be ordinary.
Thea Shaw sneered lightly: "Uncle Abbott, you’re overthinking. Compensation or not, Aurora and the Old Mr. Kensington Family have their own considerations, and I have nothing to do with your Abbott Family. If you are so concerned, why not thoroughly investigate who exactly swapped Aurora back then and hid it from you, doing such a heinous deed, and not even knowing your wife gave birth, with that intelligence of yours..."
"When the Abbott Family was forced to retreat abroad, it seems you indeed played a crucial role."
She didn’t finish her sentence, but the implication was clear.
But it was already extremely harsh words.
Benson Abbott was inhumane, did she still need to speak kindly?
Benson Abbott’s expression changed.
Everyone used to say that this little girl from the Sutton Family had an ethereal look, originally thinking she was quite celestial, but little did they expect her words were even harsher than Aurora Sutton’s.
Aurora Sutton, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but laugh.
Listening to Aurora Sutton’s laughter and Thea Shaw’s sarcastic words, knowing the kind of person he was, he very much wanted to leave in anger.
Even now, back in Aethelgard, he had not suffered such humiliation from others.
But he had to endure.
Generally speaking, these people are excellent at acting, at least when faced with such a situation, they should have the composure of being undisturbed even if a mountain collapses before their eyes, but that applies to those who have suffered hardships.
Benson Abbott, who has been held up by others all his life and feared by those around him, has never suffered such an insult.
Thea Shaw just watched his face change colors like a palette, yet he had to put on an effortful display of sorrow: "The matter of those years was indeed my fault! I know that no matter how I explain, Aurora, you won’t forgive me, but please give me a chance. As your father, I truly want to make it up to you. Even if not for me, think about your grandfather, he’s waiting at such an old age, just wanting to see you again."
