Relentless Pursuit After Divorce-Chapter 1963: Summer Hall Side Story (165)

"Thomas, as I said, giving you the chance to speak doesn’t mean I can’t find out anything."

Edward’s words just now were initially meant to trick Thomas, but this fool probably really cares too much about Olivia, to the point where the panic and worry on his face were too direct and obvious.

Even if Edward intended to ignore it, he couldn’t overlook it.

He knew Thomas’s concern for his sister Olivia, but now, he realized that this concern was somewhat pathological, completely exceeding that of a brother for his sister.

Thinking of this, Edward’s brow furrowed slightly, and his gaze towards Thomas became sharper. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"It seems I’ve been too gentle with Olivia."

After speaking, he stepped out of the living room.

Edward’s words frightened Thomas greatly. He knew Edward’s methods.

The fact that he said this meant he was definitely going to deal with Olivia.

Olivia, such a weak girl, how could she withstand Edward’s methods?

With this thought, he became even more flustered. Before Edward left, he quickly grabbed his arm and said:

"Big brother, Olivia didn’t mean to. It’s not her fault."

Mr. and Mrs. Smith, who had been sitting in the living room suppressing all their anger, leaving the interrogation of Thomas to Edward, couldn’t contain their anger when they heard Thomas defending Olivia at this critical moment.

Especially Evelyn, who had been forcing herself to suppress her anger, but Thomas’s answer clearly admitted that the medicine was indeed given to Helen by Olivia, and she couldn’t control her rage.

She stood up from the sofa, went forward, and directly slapped Thomas, "You beast, are you still human? Helping an outsider poison your own sister, get out, get out of the Smith Family, go live with Olivia then."

Evelyn’s eyes reddened with anger, pointing at Thomas’s nose, she slapped him again, "How did I give birth to such a brute, even wanting to harm your sister? What is Olivia to you, huh? Why do you protect her like this? Get out, never come back to the Smith Family, or I’ll break your legs!"

Thomas was first stunned by Evelyn’s slaps, then angry and disappointed that his mother wouldn’t listen to his explanation and directly judged Olivia guilty.

"Mom, how can you be so unreasonable, what evidence do you have to prove it was Olivia who gave the drug?"

"When Olivia asked me for this drug, it was for self-defense. Many of her classmates know she has this drug, why don’t you suspect that her classmates stole Olivia’s drug to poison Helen Melendy?"

Evelyn was so angered by Thomas’s defense that she couldn’t even speak.

She turned around, grabbed the broom from the servant’s hand, and swung it at his thigh.

"Thomas, even if I had a dog, it would be better at thinking than you. Self-defense? That’s what Olivia told you, right?"

She furiously swung the broom at his leg again, "Is Olivia your ancestor? You believe whatever she says, can’t you use your brain?"

"As the eldest daughter of the Smith Family, is she lacking bodyguards around her? Does she need such a drug for self-defense? If she really encounters danger, can such a pill protect her? Thomas, do you have a brain? Can’t you think?"

Evelyn was so out of breath from anger that she didn’t even have the strength to hold the broom and directly fell onto the sofa.

Charles gently patted her back, looking at him coldly.
