Chapter 232 Dad Is Useless
Colin strode in first.
When Colin saw that Isabella was also there, he could not help but be stunned.
On the bed, Elodia and Kieran were shocked. They looked in the direction of the door in a panic.
Isabella asked in surprise, “Uncle Colin, what’s wrong with you? Elodia needs to rest. Why are you making such a big commotion? Is there something urgent?”
Colin’s expression froze for a moment before he said with a straight face, “Isabella, this has nothing to do with you.”
Then, Colin walked toward Elodia.
Elodia looked at Colin and the other two who suddenly came in in an imposing manner. If it was in the past, Elodia might have been so frightened that she did not even dare to breathe.
But at this moment, Elodia’s heart was terrifyingly calm.
Elodia had expected Colin’s anger. After so many years‘ getting along, Elodia knew how domineering Colin
was.
With Colin’s dominance, it was normal for him to have such a reaction when he heard Elodia take the initiative to ask for a divorce.
Colin stared at Elodia sharply and said sternly, “I heard that you want to divorce Gary?”
Elodia’s eyelashes fluttered as she said, “You can ask Gary to bring up the divorce. I will agree.”
Elodia’s goal was to leave the Lockwood family. As for how she would leave, Elodia did not care.
Colin was a little surprised. In the past, Elodia was very timid and did not even dare to speak when she saw Colin. But now, Elodia’s reaction made Colin surprised.
Colin said coldly, “It seems that you’ve made up your mind?”
Elodia said, “Yes.”
Elodia’s tone was exceptionally firm.
Colin sneered and looked at Kieran. Without a word, Colin picked up Kieran and said, “If you want a divorce, you can forget about seeing Key for the rest of your life.”
Elodia trembled, and her eyes turned red.
Now, Kieran was the only light in her life.
Without Kieran, would Elodia still have the motivation to live?
The answer was no.
Isabella’s expression had already darkened.
Isabella took a step forward and said to Colin, “You can’t say that this matter has nothing to do with me completely.
“Uncle Colin, marriage is free and equal. Even if they divorce, Elodia also has the right to raise Key.
“Of course, that’s for ordinary people. The Lockwood family has absolute power to suppress Elodia and even makes it realistic that Elodia will never have a chance to see Key again.
“However, Elodia has suffered so much and lost a child. Gary has not fulfilled his duty as a husband from the beginning to the end. Instead, Gary even wanted to protect the murderer.
“Not only does Elodia not have any dignity when she is with such a man, but also she could not even guarantee her safety. There is no one to uphold justice for Elodia.
“As one of the mighty Lockwood family, you actually want to use absolute power to deal with a weak woman
like Elodia.
“Uncle Colin, don’t you feel ashamed? As an elder, not only did you not do your duty to protect your junior, but you also came to snatch her child and stop her from divorce.
“Don’t tell me that you did all of this because of your ridiculous self–esteem and the so–called rules of the
second branch.”
Isabella looked sharply at Colin. An embarrassed expression flashed across Colin’s face for a moment, but his face quickly darkened.
Colin said angrily, “Isabella, this is the business of the second branch.”
“Without me, Elodia would have been dead for long. Since I’ve saved her, I’m responsible for her. She’s my patient.”
Isabella refused to back down.
Gary recovered from Isabella’s previous words and suddenly targeted Elodia.
“Elodia, why are you so vicious? Do you have to force Cressida to death so that you won’t make a fuss?”
Elodia’s eyes were glistening with tears. Her expression looked like she was crying and laughing, but she could not say a word.
Isabella wore a mocking smile. She looked at Colin and said, “Uncle Colin, do you also agree with what Gary asked?”
Colin hugged Kieran, and his expression was extremely gloomy. Colin glared at Gary. Gary was such a bastard.
