He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 886

She knew the truth now. But she also knew she could never, ever go back.

And if she couldn't have that life, there was no way in hell she was letting Scarlett have it easily.

She was violently allergic to the idea of Scarlett enjoying the unconditional love of the Croft family. Even if she had to play the part of a hysterical madwoman, she was going to sabotage this relationship.

She had absolutely nothing to lose. Ever since the divorce, her life had been a series of catastrophes. It was as if she had used up all her good karma during those six years.

The thought made her hate Julian, hate Scarlett, and hate the entire Croft family.

Her screaming actually managed to sway a few bystanders. Seeing a distressed pregnant woman waving an ultrasound, some people began whispering and casting judgmental looks at Elara.

Elara stood tall in the center of the crowd. She eyed Sylvia coldly, showing absolutely no sign of distress.

Having dealt with a parasite like Sylvia for years, Elara's mental fortitude was practically made of titanium. And now that she no longer cared about maintaining appearances, she was an absolute force of nature.

These petty rumors meant nothing to her.

She let out a sharp, mocking laugh. "Are you all done listening? Good. Now it's my turn."

Elara pointed squarely at Sylvia. "This woman was indeed my daughter-in-law. Unfortunately, the child she birthed didn't belong to my son. It belonged to her lover. That is why she was thrown out of our house."

"Now, she’s obsessed with the luxury she lost. She can’t have it back, so she's trying to destroy it by spewing these pathetic lies. Don't let her play you for fools!"

Elara paused, her eyes gleaming with calculated mischief. "As for her claim that this baby is my son's? Pure fiction!"

"My son was diagnosed with severe erectile dysfunction years ago! He can't even perform in the bedroom, let alone father a child!"

"So, I suggest you all find some common sense and go about your day! Don't be so gullible!"

...

The crowd fell dead silent, exchanging bewildered glances.
