Chapter 92
He thought, ‘Of course, they all knew Aubree was being framed. How naive I was. As the masterminds behind it all, they were fully aware of the truth.
He had thought they just misunderstood Aubree.
It wasn’t until today that Emery finally saw his so-called family for who they really were.
Breathing heavily, his voice trembling with anger, Emery demanded, “So what you’re saying is that I accidentally ruined your scheme to frame Aubree, and now you actually want me to join in bullying her?”
When their veneer of decency was torn away, the words beneath cut like a knife.
Emery was utterly shocked, he couldn’t believe those words had actually come from his own parents.
“Emery, how can you call this bullying Aubree?” Trevor spread his hands in exasperation, looking utterly helpless, “She’s the one picking on Carmen and defying Mom and Dad. Aubree’s so rebellious, we’re just trying to teach her a lesson before she gets herself into even bigger trouble. We’re only doing this for her own good.”
Alice gave her third son an approving look. “Trevor’s right,” she said, feigning concern, “Aren’t we just doing this for Aubree’s own good? Back when she still lived at home, she’d never have dared act like this!”
