Chapter 291: 291: In a Dilemma
My son cannot leave the Marshall Family, otherwise, everything will be over.
Bella Thompson stopped crying and began to apologize in a low voice.
Matthew Marshall wanted to stand up for her, but Bella Thompson held him back, gesturing him to stay quiet.
Seeing his mother in pain, Matthew furrowed his brow, his heart also filled with contempt for his own powerlessness.
Not to worry his mother, Matthew opted for silence, yet his eyes betrayed his painful emotions.
Even though she wasn’t crying anymore, Bella Thompson’s tear-filled eyes overflowed, the drops sliding slowly down her cheeks.
Despite her uncontrollable hatred inside, she didn’t reveal it. Instead, she continued to apologize, suppressing her pride and dignity underfoot.
She’d remember the humiliation she experienced today, and she would certainly repay Daniel Marshall and Olivia Jenkins double-fold.
Bella Thompson: “Father, it’s all my fault. It’s disgraceful as an elder. I shouldn’t have been jealous of Olivia, stirred up trouble, and caused chaos in the Marshall household. I shouldn’t have tried to sow discord between Olivia and the family. I deserve to be driven out of the Marshalls. I’ll sincerely reflect on my actions, mend my ways, and learn to be tolerant.”
Alexander Marshall’s voice was sharp and cold, his critical eyes flashing with contempt, “If you hadn’t instigated things, if you hadn’t fueled the fire, the fire wouldn’t have reached you, Bella Thompson. I hope you’re sincere in your introspection and understand your mistakes, rather than blaming others for being unfair to you. You can’t hide the truth.”
Matthew’s hand clenched into a fist, as if gathering all his hatred. Bella Thompson tightly held her son’s hand, signaling him to hold back.
Heeding his mother’s direction, Matthew’s fist gradually relaxes as he tries to hide his resentful emotions.
Her son being obedient was Bella Thompson’s only consolation.
No matter what difficulties she’d face, she’d endure, she had to plan for her son’s future.
Bella Thompson: “Father is right, I’ll take the lesson and make changes.”
Turning her gaze away from Alexander, Bella Thompson looked at Olivia and bowed, “I’m truly sorry, I don’t have the face to ask for your forgiveness.” Olivia curled her lips in disdain, remaining silent.
Bella Thompson would humiliate herself to protect her son. Olivia didn’t believe for a moment that Bella was truly apologizing to her or that she would repent.
So, Olivia felt no need to play along with her act.
Going forward, only one of them could survive. Bella wouldn’t stop until Olivia was destroyed.
Without anyone to retain her or a kind word to be heard, Bella Thompson turned into the butt of the joke under everyone’s gaze, her face stiff with humiliation.
Under the bodyguard’s watch, Bella Thompson got into the car and left Beverly Hills in the middle of the night.
She never dreamt that she would be driven out of the Marshall family in such disgrace after over twenty years.
She was swallowed up by bitter disappointment, leaving only uncontrollable resentment.
Just wait and see, she would be back for her revenge.
Matthew, silent, walked back to the main house after seeing off his mother.
As he passed by Daniel and Olivia, a dangerous aura around him, he glared at them menacingly.
Michael Marshall also remained silent, yet his expression revealed his discontent with Daniel and Olivia.
Ever since this vile woman came into the Marshall family, there had been constant turmoil. He wouldn’t let her go easily once it was her turn to be driven out.
Daniel, seemingly unaffected, wrapped his arm around Olivia and went back to the car, leaving Beverly Hills.
Inside the car, Olivia looked at Daniel with playful interest, “Husband, have I caused you trouble?”
