Marry You Like A Thief

"Doctor, how's my father? Is he still critical?"

As soon as the doctor came out of the emergency room, Vivian rushed to him anxiously. The vicious mother and daughter couldn't help but gaze at him questioningly as well. The doctor waved his hand up in the air, indicating that they should let him speak. Once it was silent, he started,

"Mr. Pei had a stroke. Fortunately, he was sent just in time, so he's not in critical condition now. You must be careful in the future. Strokes can get worse over time."

"Thank you, doctor. We'll be careful," Riley said politely, even if her insides were shaken up after her father's collapse.

Vivian stared at the resuscitation room and said nothing.

She knew that her father had been worrying about the Pei Group, and at this point, she knew for a fact that the financial difficulties they had to overcome was incredibly large. Otherwise, he wouldn't have wanted to marry her off.

She didn't expect that the fight would cause his stroke. Her heart was filled with guilt.

The nurse pushed the unconscious Mr. Pei into the VIP ward. He was later followed by Vivian, Kelly, and Riley.

After entering the ward, Riley quickly stopped Vivian outside the bedroom. She sneered,

"You don't deserve to see Dad. If it hadn't been for your brashness, he wouldn't have had a stroke!"

"Get out of my way. I just want to see him."

Vivian was in no mood to quarrel with her, but as much as she tried to convince her, Riley still refused to budge. Her mocking glare was enough to tell Vivian that she was never going to budge as long as she was there.

"You're feeling sorry for him after you've caused his stroke?" Riley snorted. "Don't pretend to be so innocent."

"You know that your father has been so stressed with what's happening over the Pei Group, and you still went ahead to make him this mad. Are you trying to kill him?" Of course, Kelly was going to use this opportunity to blame her.

Vivian gritted her teeth. They were the ones who caused the fight. Why did they make it seem as if nothing had happened?

When did she become the cause of her father's collapse?

However, it only made her understand one thing. Her stepmother and stepsister had only pretended to be nice to her before, and the loss of her brother must've something to do with them. She was sure of it.

"Well, since we're already here, we might as well make it clear. You were the ones who made my brother disappear so that Alex remains as the only son of the Pei Family. You want him to inherit the fortune of the Pei Family, right?"

Kelly was flustered after hearing her words. Before she could say anything, Riley snapped,

"You think you're so smart in thinking this, but you still need to find evidence for that. Do you? If you don't have any evidence right now, then I suggest you don't speak. Otherwise, we're going to sue you."

"Riley, we're a family. How could we go to court? Consider your sister's feelings,"

Kelly said guiltily. Honestly, she didn't want to make this a big deal, so she held her daughter back.

However, Riley was unafraid as she stepped forward.
