the two-faced Adopted Girl Who Melted CEO's Ice-Cold Heart-Chapter 816: Caught Red-Handed—I’m Smashing This Painting on Ignatius Leclair’s Face
"So you dragged me along to buy a painting because that woman was the mistress? Damn, how could you still smile at her?" Chloe Winston cursed, stomping her foot in anger.
Delphine suddenly knocked on her head and said, "Ladies shouldn’t curse."
"I was really blind, thinking my brother-in-law was uniquely good to you. I praised him every day just to annoy Constantine Stewart, damn it." Chloe unleashed a barrage of words, then grabbed Delphine’s hand indignantly, "Sis, if you’re going to deal with the mistress, call me. I’m good at fighting. I’ve scratched Constantine Stewart all over."
Delphine was originally furious but was amused by her joking words. She sneered, "Why deal with a mistress? It’s too tiring. Catch them in the act, and when I have evidence, I’ll smash this painting right in Ignatius Leclair’s face."
Not only that, but she also planned to take the two children with her, leaving him with nothing.
If he wanted kids, he should go have them with another woman.
Chloe understood that the painting was bought to be used for smashing, which explained the urgency of the purchase. She quickly nodded and said, "I’ll get Constantine Stewart to help us catch them."
"No need. If Constantine Stewart knows, then Ignatius Leclair will too. We’ll handle it ourselves." Delphine nodded calmly. Woman’s intuition is strong, and Emily Thorne not only recognized her identity, but she also knew Delphine returned late from filming every night and hesitated that there would be no one home to receive the painting. Clearly, Ignatius Leclair had arranged to meet her tonight.
Delphine sneered, took Chloe with her, and decided to skip going to the film set and returned home directly.
In the gallery, Emily Thorne instructed someone to pack up the pastoral landscape painting, pausing slightly as she looked at the delivery address.
Even though she knew he had other women, she had maintained a relationship with Ignatius Leclair for more than ten years and was confident that she was special to him.
Even the school junior who used to follow him everywhere back then, the Cloud Family’s number one socialite Melody Cloud, she didn’t take seriously. However, upon meeting Delphine Carter today, Emily was taken aback to realize this woman was not only stunning but also had an incredibly cold aura.
But having looks alone doesn’t count for much. She’s Ignatius Leclair’s psychologist and the woman who knows most of his secrets.
Emily lowered her eyes, took out her phone, and sent a message to him to meet at Cloud Summit that night.
Delphine drove home and picked up Nicholas and Benjamin along the way. When they arrived home, Ignatius Leclair wasn’t there, of course. Recently, Ignatius had hardly been home. Only Yeats Howard was there.
Yeats, being the eldest grandson of the Howard Family, was spending his days in the South Seas taking care of kids, avoiding being forced into marriage—it was quite unprecedented.
"Auntie, what happened to you today?" Yeats grinned as he saw he didn’t have to fetch the two little ones today, trying to please Delphine.
Wow, this Auntie is really something. He coldly observed that his uncle had been quite irritable lately, a sign of unmet desires.
From the South Seas to Imperial City, no one dared to treat his uncle like that except her.
Yeats thought that while living under someone else’s roof, he still needed to please the big shot, and first on the list was Auntie.
"Why are you still here?" Chloe asked as she helped Nicholas and Benjamin out of the car. The whole situation with Ignatius Leclair’s infidelity made her annoyed even with Yeats. "How many days have you been staying here?"
Yeats felt his face heat up. Wasn’t he just avoiding a forced marriage?
"Weren’t you staying here for quite a few days before? Everyone has their struggles." The Howard Family’s Demon King chuckled awkwardly.
Chloe snorted coldly and decided to cut all ties with anyone connected to Delphine’s brother-in-law.
