Chapter 493 - 492: Grievances of the Previous Generation Should Not Affect You
Aunt Sienna was stunned for a long time after hearing the news before she reacted, "Bella, what did you say? Your dad and the Sinclair Family are enemies because of a murdered son?"
Bella Acker nodded, "Mrs. Sinclair showed me the evidence today. Only then did I realize how difficult and painful it has been for Damian lately. Mrs. Sinclair will never agree to Damian and me being together, and Damian probably can’t get past the hurdle in his heart. So, the possibility of us being together is very slim."
"Silly girl, why didn’t you tell me earlier about something like this?" Aunt Sienna became a bit anxious, only then noticing Bella’s exhaustion, which makeup couldn’t fully conceal.
Bella Acker said, "Didn’t you keep your illness a secret from me too?"
Aunt Sienna paused. They both knew in their hearts that they didn’t tell each other because they didn’t want to cause the other to worry.
Aunt Sienna sighed, "Is there really no room for negotiation with the Sinclair Family?"
Bella Acker shook her head, "Mrs. Sinclair’s attitude is very resolute."
"You grew up in an orphanage, not even knowing who your parents are. The grudges from the past generation shouldn’t fall on you!" Aunt Sienna was somewhat angry, mainly because she felt sorry for Bella, "I’ll go find the Sinclair Family. How can they blame you like this?"
"Aunt Sienna, it’s no use." Bella Acker’s tears welled up in her eyes again. The rationale Aunt Sienna thought of may not be overlooked by the Sinclair Family, but with the enmity over a murdered son, they will only think of her father whenever they see her, and this hatred is insurmountable.
Only someone like Aunt Sienna, who treats her like her own daughter, stands by her side in everything, thinks about her, and stands up for her.
Aunt Sienna was heartbroken to see Bella endure such pain.
They had raised her since childhood, always reluctant to say a harsh word, yet now she was being bullied by others!
Bella Acker sniffled and cried, "Aunt Sienna, I only have you and Ethan left. Can we go to the hospital?"
Seeing the plea in her eyes, Aunt Sienna’s heart ached again. After a pause, she softly said, "Bella, it’s no use."
"No use? Why is it no use?" Bella Acker widened her eyes in panic, "We’ll go to the hospital, and the doctors will surely have a way to cure your illness."
"Silly girl..." Seeing her like this, Aunt Sienna couldn’t bring herself to say that she was already in the late stages of cancer.
"Aunt Sienna, don’t speak, don’t say anything, we’ll go to the hospital right now, let’s go!" Bella Acker took her clothes, tears streaming down as she helped her put them on.
This time, Aunt Sienna didn’t push her away again.
Judy Zimmerman came back holding Ethan, and Bella Acker wiped her tears and said, "Piggy, could you please give me a hand? Aunt Sienna doesn’t have much strength left. Let’s help her into the car to the hospital."
"Alright." Judy Zimmerman watched her handle everything while crying and felt a bit heartbroken, but she didn’t ask any questions, simply put Ethan down and stepped forward to help.
Bella Acker rubbed Ethan’s forehead gently and said softly, "Ethan, Aunt Sienna is sick, and we have to go to the hospital. Can you hold on to Bella’s clothes and stay close?"
"Okay." Ethan nodded. Although tears were still in his big eyes, he was so understanding that he didn’t cry anymore.
Bella Acker and Judy Zimmerman worked together to support Aunt Sienna out of the room. It was only when she wrapped her arms around Aunt Sienna’s waist through the clothes that she realized she had almost wasted away to skin and bones.
Bella Acker was filled with sadness again, gritting her teeth to hold back the tears.
