Relentless Pursuit After Divorce

Thomas, however, was so angry that his fists loosened and tightened, tightened and then loosened again, afraid of implicating Olivia, he had been holding back his words against Helen Melendy, not saying a word, but now it was too much.

His mother was truly being ruthless for that Helen Melendy, it’s just a matter of a few words, gripping it tight and not letting it go, even after coming home she hadn’t forgotten, actually having the thought of driving Olivia away.

He stepped forward, pulling up Olivia who kept kowtowing towards the ground, looking at her bruised forehead, he was so angry his eyes turned red.

"Mom, don’t you think you’re being too much? Olivia just said a wrong thing, and you’re going to drive her away. That Helen Melendy is really impressive, hasn’t even officially acknowledged her roots and our house is already in chaos. Is a cripple so important that you’d disregard everything..."

Smack—

A slap landed directly on his face.

Evelyn Taylor trembled with rage, her eyes filled with bloodshot, pointed a shaking finger at Thomas, and then gave him another slap with the back of her hand.

"It’s one thing for others to mock your sister as a cripple, but you’re her brother, calling her a cripple all the time like that, do you still have any humanity?"

Her long-sleeved finger pointed straight at Thomas’s reddened nose, saying:

"You’re right, it’s chaotic; it’s exactly because I’m afraid of the house being chaotic that I want to drive her away. If she doesn’t leave, our family will truly be chaotic, you’re the best example!"

The more Evelyn Taylor scolded, the angrier she got, and the angrier she got, the more she wanted to kick Thomas.

"You think she’s innocent, what’s innocent about her? What she wears, what she eats daily, what isn’t rightfully Helen’s? If it wasn’t for considering her youth and innocence, do you think I’d just let her leave the Smith Family that easily?"

Evelyn Taylor’s words caused Olivia’s lowered eyes to flicker imperceptibly.

But at this moment, she kept her head down, so no one noticed.

"Thomas, if you think she’s innocent, she’s pitiful, then you roll out of the Smith Family with her, I absolutely won’t beg you to stay."

After scolding Thomas, Evelyn Taylor looked at Olivia again, saying:

"Your clothes, your pocket money card, your personal items, I won’t take them back; I’ve been more than generous to you, if you’re still not satisfied, then leave it all behind and roll out alone."

Olivia was stunned, it was the first time she saw Evelyn Taylor so furious.

She knew Evelyn Taylor had a hard time acknowledging her biological daughter, naturally treating Helen Melendy well, but she hadn’t expected Evelyn would drive her out of the Smith Family over a trivial remark.

No, she’s not leaving! She can’t leave!

She’s been the Smith Family’s daughter for thirty years, why should she leave.

An adopted daughter is still a daughter, the Smith Family’s assets should include her share too.

She’s unwilling to leave, rather she would keep kneeling in front of Evelyn Taylor.

"Mom, I was raised by you, don’t you have any feelings for me? Blood ties are kinship, doesn’t raising invoke any sentiment? I can give back everything, even the money in the card, you can just feed me, even treat me like a servant, however you want, just let me stay with you and dad, please? I truly can’t bear to part with you."

The pocket money in her card, she’d spent almost all of it lavishly, but there’s still one or two million in savings.

These sums are a lifetime’s earnings for ordinary people, but to Olivia Smith, it’s merely two months’ pocket money.
