Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 1947

Chapter 1947

Olivia and Selena were both foaming at the mouth as they watched Jared and Ellen enter the elevator. Finally, Olivia couldn’t help but swear, “That little b*tch!”

Selena dragged her home. “Mom, we have to hurry and talk Dad out of selling the house! It’s our family’s most valuable property!”

Connor sat on the couch with his head in his hands while sinking into guilt and remorse. It was Olivia who had called the shots on many things over the years. He wasn’t heartless from the start; he had wanted to give Jessica and Ellen several thousand every year, but Olivia had stopped him from doing so. As this happened again and again every year, he slowly turned into a heartless man.

“Connor, don’t you ever sell the house! Lena and I won’t agree to this!” Olivia yelled at him as soon as she returned home.

Selena decided to let her parents refuse to pay the money as Connor had promised. “Dad, Mom is right. We’re not selling the house. We’ll see what Ellen can do about us.”

Connor replied, “If we don’t sell the house, I’ll have to go to jail! Would you rather sell the house or let me go to jail?”

Olivia continued to behave like a shrew. ‘Ellen wouldn’t dare to do that! If she dares to send you to jail, she’ll be an ingrate! You’re her uncle, after all. We’ll wear her down.”

Suddenly, Connor growled at her, “Olivia, had you not egged me on over these years, would Ellie have hated us so much? Would she hate us so much if we had given her a few thousand every year?” He blamed his wife, saying, “It was all your fault! You were insatiable! You are the reason for all of this!”

Olivia was instantly speechless for a moment; little did she think her husband would throw accusations at her. “You could’ve given her the money if you wanted!

You didn’t give her the money just because of the few words I said, huh? Doesn’t that mean you weren’t willing to give her the money as well?” She would never admit her mistakes. Whenever something wrong happened, she would always pass the buck to others.

“You… How could you…” Connor trembled all over with anger. Flying into a rage, he jumped on Olivia, raised his hand, and slapped her hard. across the face.
