Chapter 9

Mitchel's eyes reddened and the veins on his forehead bulged. He suddenly pulled Malva into his arms and kissed her.

In front of everyone's shocked gaze, he smirked and looked provocatively at Livia on the hospital bed. "Are you satisfied now?"

Malva, feeling bashful, placed her delicate hand softly on his chest. "Mitchel, how could you kiss me..."

"I kiss whoever I want!"

"Take them out!” Hailey couldn't bear the shock. She called security to drag Mitchel and Malva out.

Once the chaotic scene was over, she patted her chest to calm herself, only to notice Livia’s face was swollen on one side, with tears silently gathering and dripping down from her delicate chin.

Her heart immediately tightened with pain.

"I'm sorry, Livia, I failed to protect you. Your mother entrusted you to me and I swore I would make sure you lived a carefree life forever..."

She had once thought her son could take care of Livia for a lifetime, but now it seemed that her son was so foolish.

He couldn’t even see through Malva’s schemes and treated Livia so cruelly.

"Mom..."

Even though they were never truly family by blood, she had always called Hailey "Mom" out of gratitude for raising her.

"I just don’t have fate with him."

"Good girl, don't cry. When you cry, I want to cry too..." Hailey wept, not just for Livia, but for the years of sincere love she had wasted.

She wiped away her tears, her voice choking as she continued, "Your mother was my best friend. You actually have a twin sister, but she passed away young, leaving you all alone..."

Livia blinked her wet eyes in surprise, slightly stunned.

Before she had nearly drowned in the pool, she had seen a woman who looked exactly like her. It turned out that it was her twin sister.

People said twins have a telepathic connection.

She pressed her hand to her chest, her heart pounding fiercely.

Not only had her sister saved her, but she had also arranged for her to marry another man in her place.

On the other side…

"This marriage must be called off!" Mitchel's grandmother shouted as she noticed the slap on her beloved grandson's face, her eyes filled with deep concern.

She was furious, leaning on her cane, determined to seek justice for him. "Your mother spoiled that girl too much! She's not even a relative, yet just because of a little bit of friendship from her younger years, she raised someone else's child and ruined the future of the West Family! Now, she's even hitting her own son for her. This is going too far!"

Malva hurriedly knelt down. "Grandma, it's all my fault! If it weren't for me, Mitchel wouldn't have punished Livia and Livia wouldn't have gotten angry and caused trouble with his mother. So, everything is my fault. Family harmony leads to prosperity, please don't be angry..."

Mitchel’s grandmother, Carmen, squinted her eyes, studying Malva. Seeing her small face bruised and swollen, her tone softened. "Out of everyone in the West Family, you are the most pitiful. Malva, you're so well-behaved and sensible, much better than that arrogant and spoiled Livia!”

Upon hearing this, Malva lowered her head, a smile tugging at the corner of her lips. But Carmen's next sentence caused her smile to instantly freeze.

"Unfortunately, your background is a bit lacking. Otherwise, I would definitely try to match you with Mitchel."

Malva was stunned for a moment, then quickly changed the topic. "But what about Livia? Her birthday is in a few days..."

Carmen's face darkened. "What birthday! Hurry up, have those people take down the decorations now! If we keep spoiling her like this, soon, the entire West Family will be at the mercy of that girl!"

Although Mitchel was angry, upon hearing about canceling the birthday party, he couldn't help but plead with his grandmother. "It can't be canceled!"
