THE DIVORCE GAMBIT From Dumped Wife to CEO's Forever novel Chapter 1220

No one could possibly know the turmoil in Elsa's heart.

She was in so much pain.

She was filled with regret.

She regretted not letting these emotions out sooner.

Why did she have to be so stubborn? Why did she have to pretend to others that her parents loved her?

They clearly didn't love her.

They had never loved her!

Her entire life felt like a joke.

A complete and utter joke.

Through her tears, Elsa began to laugh. She looked at her parents, who were still stunned into silence. "Dad, Mom, listen carefully. From this moment on, I am no longer the weak Elsa I used to be. You want to use me as a stepping stone for Elton?"

"Impossible. That will never happen!"

"Not only is it impossible, but I will also curse Elton to die a horrible death. I curse all of you to die horrible deaths!"

It was only at this moment that Elsa truly awakened, realizing just how terribly wrong she had been.

The knife in her hand should never have been pointed at innocent people!

A horrible death?

Had Elsa lost her mind? To curse her own brother to die in such a terrible way.

Hearing these words, Elsa's father shot to his feet, pointing a finger at Elsa's nose as he roared, "Elsa! You ungrateful wretch! Elton is your own brother! As his sister, not only will you not help him, but you dare to curse him!"

"What kind of sister are you? You say we're biased? Yes, we're biased, so what! We favor Elton, and it's because you had the bad luck to be born a girl! If you were a boy, I guarantee I would have treated you both equally!"

"I knew you were no good from the start! You brought all of this on yourself!"

Elsa's mother stopped her fake crying and joined her husband in the verbal assault. "You heartless snake! Your father and I worked ourselves to the bone to raise you, and we never got a single day of peace from you, and now you curse us! Someone like you deserves the death penalty, and you deserve to go to hell when you die!"

Since Elsa's parents had decided to see her, they had come prepared.

Elsa closed her eyes, a storm of emotions churning within her.

She was so tired.

She had never felt so exhausted in her entire life.

After a long moment, Elsa opened her eyes again and looked at her father. "Leave. I don't want to see you again."

From now on, it would be as if she had no parents.

Their bond as parent and child was finished in this lifetime.

Elsa's father narrowed his eyes. "Elsa, I'm giving you one last chance. You will see Miss Kensington immediately and beg her to take care of Elton in the future. Or else…"

As he spoke, a dangerous glint appeared in his eyes.

"Or else what?" Elsa laughed. "I'm a dead woman walking. Do you really think you can threaten me? Let me tell you something. Not only will I refuse to ask Catie to look after Elton, but I will also tell her that Elton is an ungrateful leech, and that she should stay as far away from that doomed bastard as possible."

She was no longer afraid of anything.
