I Refuse to Divorce! -
Chapter 49
Lilith's parents turned out to be former employees of the Sandersfamily.
At that moment, a waiter brought a large plate of fish, but Mia had noappetite.
She remained indignant. "There's definitely something fishy about theWright family.”
Zoe also felt uneasy. She gently pressed Mia's hand, offeringcomforting words.
She understood Mia. Mia came from a well-off family, and at 26, shehad chosen to marry the 40-year-old Gordon, who already had a sonand a daughter. This decision severed ties with her own family.
Mia was proud. She swore to live well, to prove that her choice wasright. Now, she felt trampled underfoot by former servants. She couldnot swallow this humiliation.
Zoe comforted her.
She also mentioned the money. "With this money, things will be mucheasier. Mom, our lives will only get better from here.”
Mia chuckled after being cheered up, but she could not hold back hertears as she laughed.
"Zoe, I'm not doing this for myself. I just can't stand it for your sake. Thedaughter of a driver and a cook shouldn't look down on you." After apause, she continued, "Mason must be blind."
Zoe continued to soothe her, nodding along.
After venting, Mia felt much better. She was concerned about herhusband, so she hastily left after eating a little, leaving Zoe staringblankly at the large plate of fish.
"Mrs. Zoe!"
Suddenly, a voice rang in her ears, familiar yet unfamiliar.
Zoe looked up and saw Lilith.
Lilith was sitting in a wheelchair wearing hospital clothes, lookingfragile. However, those seemingly gentle apricot eyes carried a cunningshrewdness.
Lilith had no other choice but to come replace Zoe. Mason refused toanswer her calls and did not come to see her at the hospital. When shecalled Ava, the response was always sarcastic, saying she wasreaching for the stars.
Panicking, she came to Zoe.
Lilith came from a humble background and had a crude approach.Regardless of her own status, she tearfully looked at Zoe, evengrabbing onto Zoe's sleeve, portraying a pitiful image.
"Mrs. Zoe, I beg you not to get involved with Mason. We truly love eachother. If you step back, I promise we will be very happy together. Youcan't force love, Mrs. Zoe, don't you agree?"
Zoe had been married to Mason for three years.
Lilith had been present for three years, but this was the first time Zoefaced her.
She was vulgar and shameless.
In the past, Zoe would have been at a loss.
Perhaps because she no longer cared about Mason, she surprisinglyremained calm. She even responded to Lilith in a calm and composedmanner.
"Ms. Lilith, you should say these things to Mason. Often, the problemlies with the man when it comes to these matters, not with the woman.”Lilith bit her lip, looking embarrassed.
In her impression, Zoe was very naive. She had not expected her to beso indifferent. She came forward, no longer caring about her dignity.Following Zoe, Lilith shouted, "He doesn't love you at all.”
Zoe halted.
Lilith revealed a triumphant expression. She lifted her head slightly andcontinued speaking.
“If he loved you, why didn't he save your brother? If he loved you, whydid he let your father stay in such a shabby hospital room while I stayedin the VIP ward at Samphia Hospital, enjoying the best doctors? Mrs.Zoe, he doesn't love you at all.”
Zoe lowered her gaze and calmly said, "That's not your problem."
As she left, her heart ached intensely.
She knew all of that.
She knew Mason did not love her.
She was well aware of this after being married for three years.
