Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1050. The Fear of Being Judged

Elly Campbell’s ability to provoke animosity was as formidable as her sharp tongue.

"Back then, you spoke with such righteousness, claiming how your second aunt couldn’t live without Sean Lentz, and now it turns out Sean Lentz was the one living off women. Impoverished as you and your father are, you can only shamelessly beg for a reconciliation because without my aunt, you wouldn’t even know how to survive."

"Elly Campbell, you..."

"Ivy Lentz, do you really think my second aunt doesn’t understand what’s on your mind? You simply can’t bear to give up the life of a rich man’s daughter, and Sean Lentz realized he couldn’t mooch off women any longer, that’s why you’re pleading for a reconciliation with my second aunt, not because you still care about her in your heart."

Elly Campbell directly exposed Ivy Lentz’s motives, painting her face once again with shades of guilt.

"You’re talking nonsense, I truly wish for my parents to reconcile, that’s why I came all this way to find my mother."

Ivy Lentz’s protest sounded especially lacking in confidence.

Having said so much, Elly Campbell was no longer interested in wasting time arguing with Ivy Lentz. She simply narrowed her eyes, staring intensely at Ivy Lentz’s uneasy gaze, and said:

"You’d better pray that I can’t find out how grandpa fell down the stairs, otherwise... you’ll never have a moment’s peace for the rest of your life."

Elly Campbell’s words sounded rather fierce, and her voice chillingly cold, which was admittedly somewhat frightening.

And as she uttered those words, her gaze was relentlessly fixed on Ivy Lentz.

Perhaps it was Elly Campbell’s previous remarks that twisted her mind, for when Ivy Lentz heard these words, she didn’t attempt the slightest disguise, her complexion immediately turning pale with fear.

Facing the sharpness in Elly Campbell’s cold dark eyes, and her words, Ivy Lentz, whether out of guilt or not, repeatedly stepped back several paces before she could steady herself.

The panic in her eyes and the pallor on her face were all seen by Elly Campbell.

Moments later, she barely managed to suppress the alarm in her heart caused by Elly Campbell’s words, trying to rectify the situation:

"Elly Campbell, what do you mean by that? What does grandpa falling down the stairs have to do with me? If it weren’t for me being there, grandpa might already be dead, and yet you dare to sully me with your accusations."

Elly Campbell was no longer interested in taking issue with Ivy Lentz’s disrespect towards the Old Master.

Such a person, who lacked even the most basic principles of decency, could hardly be expected to show any manners.

But Elly Campbell had intentionally provoked Ivy Lentz with her words to prevent her from having enough time to think things through.

That way, she was able to provoke a genuine reaction from Ivy Lentz with her final statement.

Indeed, as she mentioned the truth about grandpa’s fall, the panic in Ivy Lentz’s eyes was very apparent, without any attempt to hide it.

If the Old Master’s fall had nothing to do with her, why would Ivy Lentz be so panicked, so frightened?

Elly Campbell said nothing, but silently watched Ivy Lentz, appearing indifferent but making Ivy Lentz feel the intensity of her gaze.

The piercing illumination, as if trying to dissect her heart, sought to see the truth within.

The quieter Elly Campbell was, the more uneasy Ivy Lentz became, as if Elly Campbell had already discovered something.

Ivy Lentz held back over and over, waiting and waiting, but Elly Campbell remained silent.

This instilled in Ivy Lentz a strong sense of dread as if awaiting judgment.

Finally, unable to restrain herself, she blurted out:

"Elly Campbell, why are you staring at me like that? Could it be that you think grandpa was pushed down by me?"

Her voice grew sharp.
