CHAPTER 878: CHAPTER 548: I’M DEFINITELY GETTING A DIVORCE

"Nathan, you scoundrel, don’t push me too far.

I’m not like you; you can destroy your son’s happiness again and again for your selfish desires.

Let me tell you, I’m a teacher, that’s true, but I will become a shrew for my daughter.

Let’s not even talk about being a shrew; even if I have to become a murderer today, I won’t be afraid.

You better get out of my house now, and also, have your son bring the divorce agreement to my house to sign.

If they don’t get a divorce, I won’t agree to it. Now get out of here."

Paisley Golden pushed Nathan Rhodes to the door, pulling Ivy Miller’s hand: "Come in, Ivy."

Ivy Miller patted Paisley Golden’s hand, "Mom, you go in and check on Ivy, I have a few words to say to Ms. Rhodes."

The form of address had changed, and Ivy Miller was truly resolved.

Moreover, with their families in such conflict now, there was really no point in maintaining this marriage.

Paisley Golden shot a glare at Nathan Rhodes and went inside, while Ivy Miller looked at Nathan. Nathan’s face was not looking good, "Oh, teaming up with your mom to bully me."

"Bully? Who would dare bully a woman like you? My mom wouldn’t dare, and neither would I.

Rest assured, I’ve made up my mind to divorce Henry Sullivan.

Since we’re about to no longer be family, let me speak some truths from my heart so you can listen.

Ms. Rhodes, after I leave Henry, don’t push him anymore, or you’ll really lose him.

Henry isn’t as strong as you think; his heart is fragile. He hates you, not because you’re really that overbearing, but because you’re his closest family.

You keep rewriting his life and destiny, pushing him to the brink of collapse time and time again.

This time when I leave, he might be very hurt. If you really intend to push Miss Wu onto him, please, at least give him some time and don’t push him too hard.

I only ask you one thing, he’s also a human being. Stop treating him as a machine to satisfy your desires.

Your selfish and self-serving nature will truly push him away from you forever.

You don’t know yet, he doesn’t dislike you; he hates you.

He still doesn’t know about what you did to make Isla unable to conceive.

If he finds out about this, you might really lose him.

Actually, I originally wanted to tell him about this, but Isla wouldn’t let me.

Do you know, Isla is really a good person, much better than you. Unfortunately, you weren’t fortunate enough to have such a good daughter-in-law.

And, though you have some filthy money, don’t think your money is all-powerful in everyone’s eyes.

At least my family doesn’t lack money and doesn’t care for your wealth.

My mom was right just now, our Miller family doesn’t owe the Sullivan family anything. We haven’t taken a penny from your family, so even if you’re rich, there’s no need to act superior in front of my family.

The matter of you humiliating my character ends with the conclusion of my marriage to Henry Sullivan.

If I hear you speak ill of me again, by then, you won’t be my elder, and I won’t be your daughter-in-law. I will fight you to the death.

I’ve said my peace, Ms. Rhodes; I hope we never meet again. Take care."

After speaking, Ivy Miller turned haughtily and went back into the room.

Paisley Golden was red-faced with anger; actually, Ivy Miller knew that her mother had never raised her voice at anyone in her life.

This was the first time with Nathan Rhodes, and it was all for her.

Now she understood, her mother was right back then, some former military people are terrifyingly stubborn.

Like Nathan Rhodes, determined to bulldoze her way to the end.

"Mom."

"Has that wicked woman left? If she hasn’t, I’ll go out to drive her away immediately."

"Don’t bother with her; I’ve made things clear to her," she walked over to Paisley Golden and squatted down, "Mom, if I get a divorce, will you think I’m losing face?"

"Of course not, you’re my most precious daughter, how could you be losing face?

Besides, this divorce has nothing to do with you; Mom knows you’ve been wronged.

Since the time you were hospitalized during pregnancy, Mom has been regretting it, knowing I shouldn’t have let you marry into the Sullivan family.

It’s Mom’s fault, not being clear in my stance, unable to stop you."

Paisley Golden started to wipe her tears, gone was the fierce demeanor from before.

Ivy Miller felt a pang in her heart; she sighed softly, "Mom, I’m planning to find a place to stay for a few days and rent a room.

The previous house rented has long been given up, and it’s inconvenient to stay now. Can you take care of the child for a few days?

I’ll come home early when you have classes."

"Why rent a place? Just stay home." Paisley Golden cried sadly, "Don’t worry, I won’t let your dad say a word against this. If he dares, I’ll leave with you and let him fend for himself."

Ivy Miller bit her lip, "Mom, don’t say such things in anger. This is really my matter.

The child is mine, life is mine too, I can’t jeopardize your and Dad’s happiness.

And stop crying; this is the first time I’ve seen you cry like this. I’m scared."

"It’s because I care about you."

Ivy Miller chuckled, "Mom, I’m going to make a call to Henry Sullivan; I feel like I was too ambiguous with some words before, I need to clarify things with him."

"Actually, I do think Henry is a good kid; how did he end up with a mom like that?"

Ivy Miller smiled, "Who knows? You keep an eye on Ivy for me; I’m just stepping out for ten minutes."

"Okay, don’t be too hard on yourself; you still have your mom."

"Mmm," Ivy Miller nodded, took her phone, and went out.

Nathan Rhodes had left, and Ivy Miller breathed a sigh of relief, having worried she might still be lurking around, but it was just her overthinking.

Once Henry Sullivan’s phone connected, he spoke nervously, "Ivy."

"Uncle, you know, my mom has never fought with anyone, never raised her voice, and never cried for anyone.

But today, your mother came and changed my mom.

I know I’ve failed as a daughter-in-law; I don’t please my mother-in-law.

But I never imagined that, because of me, my mom, a distinguished professor for decades, would be humiliated like this.

I don’t want to speak badly of your mom, but I still want to tell you, she’s really gone too far.

Seeing my mom and your mom arguing, fighting, and crying because they worry about me, do you know how pained it makes me feel inside?

I can’t figure it out, what on earth did I not do well enough for your mom to dislike me so much? Even when I’m leaving you, she still has to come and humiliate me.

Uncle, neither of us is wrong, but we really can’t continue any longer.

I cannot let my mother suffer any more grievances because of my love.

In your mother’s eyes, only wealth and power determine a family’s capability.

My dad is an officer who offers no help to the Sullivan family.

Even everything my dad has today, it’s all thanks to your father.

Perhaps that’s why your mom looks down on my family from the core.

Your mom came today to tell me to get a divorce soon and not to use the word ’divorce’ to scare you or threaten them anymore.

From what I thought before, yeah, I did have that mindset, wanting you to make your own changes to get your parents to like me, so we could still be together.

But... now, I don’t think that way anymore; I genuinely want to divorce you.

In your family, where there’s no harmony to be seen, I’ve decided to withdraw."
