Divorce Clock Ticking (Kenneth and Angela) novel Chapter 68

Angela frowned. But then she thought of something and began to smile.

"Mr. Sinclair, this is Patrick's villa. Wouldn't it be awkward for you to stay here?" she asked.

Kenneth looked at her angrily. Just when Angela thought he was going to leave, Kenneth suddenly spoke up. "Since he's willing to lend you the villa and knows that we are a couple, I don't think he would mind me staying as well."

Angela gritted her teeth and said coldly, "But I don't want to live with you!"

"Angela, I'm not leaving. Arrange a room for me, or come back with me! Don't forget, my disability is your responsibility!" Kenneth said.

After a long silence, Angela finally gave in.

"Fine, I'll come back with you."

She didn't want Kenneth to stay there, as their relationship would still be unclear if he found out the truth later on.

Late in the night, after returning to Vista Villa, Angela took a shower and went to sleep in another bedroom. Kenneth didn't insist on sharing a room with her. He had already brought her back, so there was no need to rush.

Early the next day, when Angela arrived at the Empyria Group, she saw Karen and Jennifer waiting at the entrance.

As soon as they saw her, Karen's anger found an outlet. She walked briskly towards Angela, ready to slap her.

"Angela! Withdraw the lawsuit immediately! You are going to ruin the Lewis family!" Karen yelled.

Angela took a step back to avoid the slap, making Karen even angrier.

"You dare to dodge!" Karen shouted.

Angela looked indifferent and said, "Why wouldn't I?"

"I am your mother! It's my right to teach you a lesson!" Karen said.

Jennifer chimed in, "Angela, Mom didn't sleep all night because of your actions. She cried several times. Stop being stubborn and withdraw the lawsuit. Do you want to watch Mom humbly apologize to the Jenkins family?!"

Angela smiled and said, "Debra defamed me online first. Instead of questioning her, you come to me, the victim, and ask me to withdraw the lawsuit. Don't you find that ridiculous?"

Just as Angela finished speaking, Karen's sharp voice rang out.

"Angela, if you are not at fault, how could Ms. Jenkins say those things online?! If you don't withdraw the lawsuit, I will treat you as if you were never my daughter!"

Angela nodded and said deliberately, "I am indeed at fault."

Karen was surprised, seemingly not expecting her to change so quickly. She coldly snorted, "Good that you know! As long as you apologize, I won't pursue this matter any further!"

"Mrs. Lewis, I haven't finished speaking yet. My mistake was returning to the Lewis family when I was sixteen. I thought you found me to make up for the past, but it turned out to be for Jennifer's bone marrow donation!"

Karen and Jennifer's faces changed. Karen gritted her teeth and said, "You are Jennie's sister, shouldn't you have helped her!"

"I haven't finished speaking, there's no need to be so eager to refute me," Angela said calmly, looking at Karen.

Karen stared at her coldly. She wanted to see what else Angela could say!

"My other mistake was expecting something from you and Paul, and even from the Lewis family. Originally, I wanted to maintain the last bit of peace between us, but now it seems impossible."

Angela had taken care of Karen every time she fell ill during Jennifer's three years abroad.

She thought that maybe one day Karen would see her sincerity, but now she realized that no matter how hard she worked, or even for another three more years, she would never surpass Jennifer's sweet talk.

Hearing the mockery in Angela's tone, Karen became even angrier. "Angela, are you apologizing or not?!"

Angela looked at Karen mockingly and said, "I won't apologize. I won't come back to your house either. Since we don't have a mother-daughter bond, let's not disturb each other in the future."

After speaking, Angela turned around and was about to leave.

Karen lost her temper and cursed at Angela, "I should have killed you when you were born if I know that you would become like this!"
