Chapter 988

Seeing that her pleadings were going unanswered, Xenia became agitated, “McNeil, do you hope

that I'll go to the sticks and never come back so you can find some other woman?”

McNeil frowned, “Stop spouting nonsense, you brought this on yourself.”

Xenia broke out laughing and exclaimed, “Hahaha! McNeil, quit acting! You're the real deal!

I've been married to the Howard family for so many years, and you've been sleeping in separate

beds these days without laying a finger on me. I don't think you, as an adult, haven't needed to

satisfy your bodily demands all these years! You had to have had other women on your side, right?

McNeil, let me tell you, I'm not Marlinie, you can't just dump me whenever you want.”

Dean was outraged and lost his patience after hearing Xenia's filthy statements, “Someone, pack

their bags, get a car, and send them to the countryside! Still nagging in front of me, spouting

shameless words, what a disgrace!”

Some house servants came over and helped the out-of-control Xenia up from the ground.

“Madam, please stand up, we need to take you to the villa.”

Xenia angrily pushed them away, “What villa? I'm not going! I'm not going anywhere! Get away

from me, who do you think you are?”

Seeing this, the servants were somewhat at a loss and looked towards the old man.

Dean had had enough of Xenia's shrewish behavior, “What are you all doing? Get her out of here

now!"

Hearing the old man’s words, the servants stopped being polite and restrained Xenia, leading her

out.

Patricia was also helped up by two servants and immediately burst into tears, “Grandpa, Grandma, I

don't want to go-to the countryside. I don't want to. I was wrong. I know I was wrong...”

Unfortunately, it was too late for tears. They might win sympathy once or twice, or even more, but

ultimately, they would just become irritating.

was led

In the end, Patricia, like her mother, was led out by the servants and taken to the villa in the

countryside.

As Xenia and Patricia were led out of the Howard family gate and prepared to get in the car, they

coincidentally ran into Ellinor, who had just come from a press conference.

Theo's black car was parked on the side of the road. Ellinor got out and saw the disheveled state of

Xenia and Patricia, as well as the suitcases the servants were loading into the car.

She walked over slowly, smiling, and subtly curled her lips, “Are Mrs. Howard and Ms. Howard about

to go on a trip?”

Patricia was in a state of disarray, but she refused to show weakness in front of Ellinor. She puffed

out her chest and glared at her, “Ellinor, you've cost me everything today. I will get back at you!”

Ellinor disagreed, “Whether I've hurt you or not, let's not talk about that. Ms. Howard, it seems

you've just taken someone else's place and enjoyed their life, right?”

Patricia was taken aback, and there was a flicker of caution in her eyes, “What do you mean by

that?”

Ellinor smiled faintly, “Nothing much; I just hope you understand that hurting others will eventually

hurt yourself! Also, things that don't belong to you, even if you can't return them to their rightful

owner, will never truly be yours.”

Patricia stared into Ellinor's inscrutable eyes, feeling a sense of unease and fear.

At that moment, Xenia was utterly distraught. Seeing Ellinor, whom she loathed immensely, she

couldn't help but curse, “You devil, don't get too cocky! One day, I'll make sure you die by my

hand!”
