The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 312 Stop At The Impossible

Kay was among the matrons at the party.

Mandy was busy preparing a sumptuous meal in the kitchen, completely unaware of Isla bringing Aron

home. But close to dinner time, Mandy walked out of the kitchen to find Aron and Isla affectionately

sitting beside each other. Taken aback, she ran screaming towards Isla, "You damn bitch! You have the

face to show yourself here after what you did to my daughter! Not only did you steal her man, you

caused us a huge embarrassment when the wedding was cancelled. I can beat you to death and it still

won't be enough!"

Aron lost no time getting in between the two women to protect his fiancee, as Mandy tried to claw out

towards Isla.

Instead, Mandy's hand hit Aron with burning hatred. Aron groaned in pain but was intent on protecting

Isla.

Kay along with the rest matrons watched the drama with pleasure while eating melon seeds.

Mandy, seeing Aron who came to Isla's rescue, got angrier and grabbed a nearby broom and took it all

out on Aron. "You are nothing but a faithless ingrate. Four years, Aron! My daughter devoted four years

of her youth to you, only to be betrayed by you here. This is an injustice to Becky and I will not take this

sitting down!"

"Auntie, please stop!" Isla while being shielded by Aron was in tears, pleading. "Stop it, You are hurting

Aron." Isla couldn't bear to see her aunt beating Aron beyond measure.

Bette and Jina heard the commotion outside and ran out to see what was going on. Jina, at the sight of

Mandy attacking Aron and Isla, joined in the rumble and wrestled the broom from Mandy's hand. She

had developed much more physical strength, spending a lot of time in the farm.

"What the hell are you doing? You are going too far, Mandy!" Jina threw the broom aside.

Mandy paused to catch her breath, as she had not been doing any exercise.

Isla quickly checked Aron's condition. "Are you ok? Do you have any wounds?"

"Nothing serious...." Aron replied gently and calmly. He suffered a few blows but the pain was bearable.

"Auntie, do whatever you want to me! But you cannot treat Aron like this!" Isla protested, standing up to

Mandy.

"Deal with you?" Mandy's anger had not been appeased. "What gave you the right to steal my

daughter's love away from her?

Let's settle this... once and for all."

Mandy didn't hold back her fury. "Their wedding plans were final. All the wedding invitations were sent

to relatives and friends. But because of you, everything was ruined. How can you defend yourself with

reason and sense?"

"I...." Isla was rendered speechless.

Jina, at that moment, instinctively spoke for her daughter. "How ignorant you are! First and foremost,

you seem to have no clue as to who came into Aron's life first. I know that you knew about it, but you

are hiding this fact to justify yourself."

Jina was determined to defend her daughter. A mother is known for her unequaled courage when it

comes to safeguarding her own children.

Mandy, though feeling guilty, faced Jina with disdain. "My sister-in-law, this relationship between Becky

and Aron would have been legalized had Isla not spoiled it. Your gold-digging daughter wants a rich

man for herself. And it appears that you consent to this dishonorable behavior. Everybody knows about

this now."

"You and your petty lies. Remember, it was my daughter and Aron who nearly got married four years

ago, only to break up because your sluttish daughter got Aron drunk and slept with him. Thus in truth..."

Jina had to be vulgar in order to tell what truly happened. For Mandy, this was beyond embarrassing.

"That was in the past." Mandy was sticking to her accusation, "Anyway, Becky's company and devotion

that lasted four years could not have gone nowhere if not for Isla coming back into Aron's life. And to

rub salt on our wounds, your daughter brought her stolen man here without any consideration of the

pain and the shame she brings along. I'm going to teach you a lesson."

Mandy was about to take the broom while cursing, when Bette came out to rebuke Mandy again. "No

more of your tirades! You are making a fool of yourself in front of our guests."

Mandy would have calmed down but she was fighting for... Becky's future happiness. She had to do

whatever it took to avenge her.

"We are not done here. If this is not settled, I promise that there will be no peace among us." Mandy

threatened.

"You...." Isla was about to approach her aunt, but Aron pulled her back.

Aron then stood up to face Mandy. "Do you really want to be given an explanation?"

"Of course." Mandy sneered, "Aron, you bastard! Your divided loyalty between Isla and Becky doesn't

make you a man. You are far from being one."

Aron remained well poised at Mandy's verbal abuse. It was time for him to tell the truth and conclude

this scandal. Aron replied with a calm smile, "Are you sure to make it known to everyone present

here?"

"I don't see why not!" Mandy said with conviction. "It is best to clear up this matter in the presence of

our relatives and friends. Once the truth is exposed, you will be found guilty and shameful."

Isla wanted to stop Aron from disclosing the whole thing, considering that it was Bette's birthday party.

But Bette assured Isla, "Isla, I am fully aware of your untold grievances. Now that Mandy demands an Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

explanation, it will prove that you are innocent. You don't have to live with the lies and the gossip

anymore."

Bette expressed her disdain toward Mandy, "Mandy, as I fully understand, would only stop at the

impossible. Now that she wants to make a stir, we should let her run amuck. She will realize later that

she made herself a complete idiot!"
