Love’ss 155
Madelyn knew what awaited the Garcia family and didn't want to waste any more time on them. Seeing her about to leave, Caleb and Elena's faces turned pale.
Amelia dragged her sore body inside. Upon entering, she immediately understood the situation had spiraled out of
control.
She immediately rushed to Madelyn's side and clung to her legs.
"Maddie, listen to me. It's not what you think.
"Your father didn't mean to treat you that way. Trust me!"
"Mrs. Garcia, we no longer have any relationship. Please don't call yourself my mother when you see me from now on.
Madelyn found the thought of Amelia as her mother to be deeply insulting.
She forcefully retrieved her leg from Amelia's grasp and scanned the crowd before saying, "I'll have my lawyer handle the paperwork to serve all ties. You'll receive it soon." She would make sure it was absolute if they wanted to
sever ties. She turned and left with Andrew without looking
back.
The atmosphere in the Garcias living room grew heavy. Caleb and Amelia erupted into anger once Andrew and Madelyn departed.
Realizing she had lost everything, Amelia went ballistic, grabbing things off the coffee table and hurling them at
Caleb.
"Were you even thinking? I told you we can't do this. We can't escape Andrew's control.
She had never agreed to this plan. Now, it had all gone terribly wrong.
Caleb's chest heaved with fury.
"It's your fault! You couldn't stop him!"
"Do you know how much time I bought just to stop him? You
allowed Andrew to see that scene. You've ruined me.
Everything my mom left me is gone because of you."
Amelia grew angrier as she considered the situation. Using Madelyn to obtain a sum of money and flee abroad was proving impossible.
Every time she recalled Andrew's stern face, she realized how challenging this whole affair was. However, Caleb was still determined to proceed with that plan. He was ruining them all. Caleb's face was also ashen. Elena sat trembling on the floor. She couldn't process what had happened.
When she first heard of her father's plan, she knew it wa gamble that would determine their fate. However, she ne expected it to fail so quickly.
Amelia looked at Elena.
"Elena, do you still have some jewelry that the Miller fam didn't reclaim? Bring it to me now."Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Elena hesitated.
"But..."
She had plenty of jewelry but hesitated to bring it out no With the Garcia family in disarray, Garcia Group's operation had come to a complete standstill, and they were deeply debt. The jewelry felt like a small consolation. They were alread on the brink of losing everything, and Amelia clung to that jewelry as a last hope.
Sensing Elena's hesitation, Amelia glared at her.
"Go get it!"
"Mom, what do you want to do with the jewelry?"
"It's for us to go abroad, of course. Now that someone has offended the Miller family, do you want us to suffer too?"
Amelia's anger was palpable.
Although she didn't explicitly say she wanted to sever ties
with Caleb, her meaning was clear.
Elena had considered not enduring hardships with them, but she had never considered taking Amelia with her. Over the years, Amelia had raised her, and hér expenses were significant. Even if the jewelry sold for millions of dollars, it would barely cover Elena's costs alone. Elena didn't want to burden
herself by taking on Amelia, who also had high expenses.
When Caleb heard Amelia's words, they immediately started arguing.
"What do you mean? Are you abandoning me to go abroad?"
"The company is a mess. Even if I wanted to take you, how could I manage that?" Amelia retorted.
She had once thought Caleb had some talent when he used his mother's inheritance to build his fortune.
However, Amelia had grown to realize how useless he was. She thought herself a fool. Over the years, she had endured so many grievances because of him.
Their argument intensified. This time, Amelia finally let out all her pent-up frustrations.
Elena could only listen to their argument, unable to
intervene. However, she was reluctant to use her jewelry to help them.
