Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1048. Go stay where it’s cool.

"He has no job, no income; without my aunt, he could only sleep on the streets. What else could he do, shameless as he is, besides begging to get back together?"

As Ivy Lentz heard Elly Campbell start to mock her father again, a fierce look flashed across her face.

Just as she was about to speak, Elly cut her off, saying,

"But you shouldn’t use grandfather as a shield, let alone degrade your own mother with those kinds of words."

"Excuse my bluntness, but it’s Sean Lentz who would truly be at a loss in the latter half of his life without my aunt, not the other way around."

"She’s beautiful and perfectly capable of fending for herself. Not just now, but even ten years from now, men would line up to marry her."

"Even if she truly had no suitors, she could live a good life on her own. What would she need a loser man for—to raise as an extra dog?"

As she said this, the fierceness in Elly’s eyes grew more intense.

"Ivy Lentz, you don’t understand my grandfather, nor do you realize how much he adores your mother, or you wouldn’t use him as a shield and say such things that demean your own mother."

Elly pointed at Ivy’s slightly changing complexion and continued,

"Even if auntie became old and wrinkled, grandfather would never despise her for her age or worry that she couldn’t remarry after leaving Sean, nor would he ever let her reconcile with a man who doesn’t deserve her."

Hearing this, Ivy’s face turned suddenly pale. She wanted to retort, but upon meeting Elly’s cold eyes, she swallowed her words.

"Ivy Lentz, you’ve simply inherited all of Sean’s shamelessness and selfishness. If you had even a slight bit of the Campbell family’s spirit, you wouldn’t be spouting such despicable and shameless words today."

Elly felt that no matter what she said, it wouldn’t be enough to express her anger at Ivy, who was utterly disgraceful.

"Auntie should never have given birth to you, let alone married Sean. Over the years, even if she had raised two dogs, the dogs would be grateful, unlike how you’ve turned out to be such ungrateful wretches."

Ivy, scolded pale by Elly, was shivering with anger.

Pointing at Elly, it was a while before she managed to choke out, "Elly Campbell, this is a matter between my mother and me. What’s it to you, why do you have to meddle!"

Elly snorted coldly and didn’t bother to reason with someone like Ivy, who lacked any moral compass. She said,

"Simply because both auntie and I share the surname Campbell, and you, Lentz, and because the ground you’re standing on belongs to the Campbell family’s territory."

While berating, Elly stepped forward, forcing Ivy to retreat again and again.

"I could let you continue living here if I felt like it, and if I don’t, I could have you kicked out at any time. And you dare hope to help a freeloader like him to get back together?

Go and stay wherever it suits you best!"

After she finished, Elly ignored Ivy’s mortified and fierce expression and headed upstairs.

"Elly Campbell!"

Fuming with rage, Ivy finally found her voice and called out to her.

Elly stopped at the stairway but didn’t turn to look at her.

Only Ivy’s somewhat shrill and sarcastic voice could be heard from behind,

"Elly Campbell, you’re only tough with someone like me, who lacks money and background. How much better are you, really? Even your own husband was snatched by a bastard, and who knows when you might lose the title of Young Miss of the Jones family."

She tried to provoke Elly with these words, eager to witness her frustration and distress.
