I Refuse to Divorce novel (Zoe and Mason) novel Chapter 49

Lilith's parents turned out to be former employees of the Sanders family.

At that moment, a waiter brought a large plate of fish, but Mia had no appetite.

She remained indignant. "There's definitely something fishy about the Wright family."

Zoe also felt uneasy. She gently pressed Mia's hand, offering comforting words.

She understood Mia. Mia came from a well-off family, and at 26, she had chosen to marry the 40-year-old Gordon, who already had a son and a daughter. This decision severed ties with her own family.

Mia was proud. She swore to live well, to prove that her choice was right. Now, she felt trampled underfoot by former servants. She could not swallow this humiliation.

Zoe comforted her.

She also mentioned the money. "With this money, things will be much easier. Mom, our lives will only get better from here."

Mia chuckled after being cheered up, but she could not hold back her tears as she laughed.

"Zoe, I'm not doing this for myself. I just can't stand it for your sake. The daughter of a driver and a cook shouldn't look down on you." After a pause, she continued, "Mason must be blind."

Zoe continued to soothe her, nodding along.

After venting, Mia felt much better. She was concerned about her husband, so she hastily left after eating a little, leaving Zoe staring blankly 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, looking fragile. However, those seemingly gentle apricot eyes carried a cunning shrewdness.

Lilith had no other choice but to come find Zoe. Mason refused to answer her calls and did not come to see her at the hospital. When she called Ava, the response was always sarcastic, saying she was reaching for the stars.

Panicking, she came to Zoe.
