I Refuse to Divorce novel (Zoe and Mason) novel Chapter 51

Lilith was feeling triumphant, but her mood quickly soured. "Dad!"

Mason responded casually, "Alright."

With a careless gesture, he let go of Lilith's hand.

Whether it was her father's failure to catch her properly or not, Lilith unexpectedly fell straight to the ground. The leg that had undergone surgery made a snapping sound as it broke again, and the friction burned the skin on her arm with the ground. It tore open, leaving a large, bloody mess.

Lilith winced in pain, beads of sweat forming on her forehead. Her father scooped her up into his arms in a panic.

Mason lowered his gaze, his tone cold. "I have some matters to attend to at the company. I'll be leaving."

The elevator doors opened, and he exited without a second glance.

Ava hurriedly followed.

From behind, Lilith pouted, "Mr. Mason… Mr. Mason!"

Eric, holding her in his arms, sighed softly.

"Sweetheart, have we gone too far? Setting up Mrs. Zoe and having your mother confront the young lady... What if Mr. Mason decides not to marry you? What will we do then?"

Lilith seethed with frustration. "I refuse to believe I can't capture Mason's heart."

…

Ella returned from the police station just in time to witness Zoe being assaulted.

Ella's temper flared easily.

Disregarding whatever bargaining chips Zoe had, she lunged forward, slapping Carly while unleashing a barrage of scathing words.

"You dog! How dare you lay a hand on Zoe? Who do you think you are? Your daughter is just a tramp who opened her legs for Mason at best. Your whole family is not even worthy of being in Zoe's presence!"

Carly had only bullied genteel people before. Faced with Ella's fierce onslaught, she was no match. In a short while, her face had been transformed into a swollen, unrecognizable mess.

She threatened to sue Ella, but Ella was unfazed and kicked her in the ribs.

"Go ahead! I'm right here. If you don't, I'll make the other side of your face look just like this one!"

Carly, relying on her connection with Mason, still wanted to act arrogantly.

However, Leslie stepped forward.
