Chapter 51
While trembling, David opened the innermost drawer, took out the share transfer agreement, and handed it to Elizabeth.
Meanwhile, Katherine, who was eavesdropping at the door, was so angry that her face contorted when she saw that David wanted to hand half of the family assets to Elizabeth.
Elizabeth was stunned. She took the agreement, tore it in half, and threw it into the trash can.
“I don’t care about this half of the assets at all. All along, I’ve only wanted my mother!”
After saying this, Elizabeth took another deep look at David. When Elizabeth saw that she could not get any information from David, she could only leave reluctantly. Meanwhile, Katherine slipped to the corner a few seconds before Elizabeth left.
David sighed faintly. After confirming that footsteps were no longer heard on the second floor, he picked up the phone in front of the bedside table. He dialed a number that he had not called for a long time and thought he would never call again in his life…
Besides not getting any clues, Elizabeth also got upset at the Clarke family’s residence. Elizabeth returned home anxiously, thinking that she would talk to Andrew later and see if there were any new clues.
Unexpectedly, when Elizabeth saw the two men and a woman sitting in the living room, her mood worsened.
“Elizabeth, you’re back.”
When Henry saw Elizabeth, he greeted her with a smile. Henry’s tone sounded very sincere, as if he really respected Elizabeth as his sister–in–law.
Scated beside Henry was Sophia, and seated opposite Sophia was Andrew. No matter what Sophia said, Andrew was indifferent and ignored her.
“Yes,” Elizabeth replied. Elizabeth sat down beside Andrew and held his wrist.
Andrew turned to look at Elizabeth, his beautiful lips curling into a doting smile.
When Sophia saw that Andrew treated her and Elizabeth so differently, Sophia was so angry that her eyes turned red. Her nails dug into her palms, almost drawing blood from them.
Sophia tried her best to calm herself down. Sophia knew that Elizabeth was deliberately showing affection in front of her intending to force her to retreat.
Sophia would not be so stupid as to walk into Elizabeth’s trap. Sophia was determined to win Andrew’s heart.
Even if Andrew was a little cold to Sophia now, it did not matter. Sophia believed that she would be able to win Andrew’s heart sooner or later. The most important thing now was to get rid of that irksome woman, Elizabeth!
“Mrs. Hayes, we’re here as guests. Shouldn’t you prepare some fruits and drinks to entertain us?”
Sophia and Henry came uninvited. Andrew did not pay much attention to them from the beginning to the end. The butler and maids here were also good at reading people’s expressions. They did not even pour a glass of water.
“Then wait a moment.”
A smiling person should be treated with courtesy. Since Sophia had already spoken, it was time for Elizabeth to show her status as the lady of the house and entertain them well!
After saying this, Elizabeth immediately got up and walked to the kitchen. She poured a cup of coffee each for Henry and Sophia. Then, she cut some fruits and carried the plate to the living room.
“Enjoy!”
As Elizabeth spoke, she gently placed the coffee on the coffee table.
“Mrs. Hayes, don’t you have freshly squeezed juice? I don’t really like coffee.”
Sophia couldn’t help but frown when she saw the coffee. She suspected that Elizabeth was implying something about her.
“I’m sorry, this is it. I think it’s quite compatible with you, Miss Hall!”
Elizabeth shrugged her shoulder and looked at Sophia innocently. She was clear about what Sophia was up to.
Sophia ordered Elizabeth around on the pretext of her being a guest, but in fact, Sophia wanted to secretly enjoy the feeling of being the lady of the house.
Elizabeth thought, “You want to be the lady of the Hayes family? Maybe in your next life!”
Upon hearing that, Sophia secretly gritted her teeth but still appeared exceptionally calm. She leaned over slightly, picked up one of the cups of coffee, and took a sip. Then, she immediately frowned!
“This water is too hot, Mrs. Hayes. Is this how you treat your guests?”
Chapter 51
As Sophia spoke, she looked at Elizabeth with an aggrieved expression as if she had really been seriously scalded.
Elizabeth was already in a bad mood. After making the coffee, she clearly used a thermostat cup to adjust the temperature to a suitable temperature for drinking before serving it.
Yet now, Sophia was lying through her teeth. If Elizabeth continued to put up with Sophia, Elizabeth would probably be bullied!
“If you don’t want to drink it, then get lost! I’ve given you a way out, but you don’t want to. Why do you have to cause trouble here? Do you think I’m easy to bully?”
As Elizabeth spoke, she suddenly stood up from her seat and placed her hands on her hips. She raised her voice and brutally dissed Sophia.
“You… Elizabeth… How could you treat me with this attitude?”
Sophia looked at Elizabeth in shock.
Sophia did not expect Elizabeth to start shouting at her in front of the Hayes family’s brothers like a shrew!
“Faced with an angelic bitch like you, what kind of attitude should I have if not this? I don’t want to see you now. You’re not welcome here. Please get out now!”
As Elizabeth spoke, she pointed at the door and expressionlessly ordered Sophia to leave.
“You…”
Sophia’s face turned red from Elizabeth’s words. Sophia looked at Andrew as if asking for help, but she realized that Andrew was not looking at her at all. Instead, Andrew was looking at Elizabeth with a doting expression. There was even a smile on Andrew’s lips!
Sophia felt uneasy in the current situation. She turned her face and looked at Henry beside her, wanting him to say something.
Henry, on the other hand, looked at Elizabeth with a playful expression. Perhaps it was because he found Elizabeth dissing people funny that he could not help but laugh.
“Elizabeth, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have brought Sophia here. I’ll leave now.”
As Henry spoke, he stood up from the sofa and looked at Sophia. “Elizabeth already asked you to leave. Why aren’t you getting up?”
At first, Henry went along with Sophia because Sophia could help him. However, judging from Sophia’s several confrontations with Elizabeth, Henry realized Sophia was extremely dull. Sophia was not even half as cute as Elizabeth. “How boring.” Henry thought.
Sophia’s only backer no longer supported her, the person Sophia liked did not even look at her, and Sophia’s love rival was also not to be trifled with. Sophia was so angry that her face turned red.
Sophia looked at Elizabeth hatefully and clenched her fists. Then Sophia stood up and left unwillingly.
For a moment, only Andrew and Elizabeth were left in the large living room.
Andrew looked at the angry Elizabeth and could not help but laugh. He stood up and patted her shoulder. “You did well this time. You showed the dignity of Mrs. Hayes!”
Elizabeth snorted. “That’s for sure. I definitely won’t show mercy to such an angelic bitch.”
After getting rid of the annoying person, Elizabeth no longer felt that resentful. However, the depression she felt did not dissipate for a long time.
