Caitlin chuckled. "Oh, don't be too hard on him. Maybe his mistress is some sort of superwoman who could rescue him with love alone. But I do wonder-while my selfless little sister was arranging the actual rescue, what exactly were you doing with your lover? Making grand promises to stick together through thick and thin? Or just cuddling up, hoping for a miracle?"
Ooh, burn! This is so satisfying. The Quirks really are sharp. Niel deserves every bit of this roasting. I sabella marveled inwardly with a smirk.
David and Selena, however, silently praised Isabella in their hearts. If it hadn't been for her insight, they might have been swayed by Niel's narrative. Thankfully, they managed to highlight the doubts, prompting the others to rally around Greta. Otherwise, Greta would have been devastated.
As Niel reflected on those days, all he remembered were the moments that touched his heart, while all those hardships they had suffered together were at the back of his mind. Despite her delicate nature, she had endured so much for my sake. How could I, as a man, not be moved by that?
While there was some truth in what everyone had said, much of it was exaggerated. Compared to their struggle for survival, the things Greta did felt more like the icing on the cake than providing essential help in desperate times. After all, without her, someone else would have stepped in. But there was only one person willing to risk everything for him.
No one who had faced the same depths of despair as Niel could speak so lightly of it.
"... I acknowledge that Greta has done a lot. I'm not denying that," Niel admitted, his tone more subdued. "But I can't start from scratch. I need to provide her with a stable life. At least let me keep the company team-you can take everything else," he added, sounding defeated.
Greta's eyes welled up slightly. "You really are hopelessly in love, aren't you? I..."
Don't back down, Aunt Greta! Why should we give it to them? If we let him keep the company team, with the Zimmer family's backing, they'll bounce back easily. Letting them live comfortably would only create more problems for us! If a woman isn't ruthless enough, she'll never be able to stand on her own two feet! Isabella exclaimed internally.
David and Seleng had heard everything, but they hesitated to intervene. This was ultimately Greta's decision to make. However, from what they could infer from Isabell,
thoughts, it seemed Greta was
leaning toward sparing Niel.
The silence was abruptly broken by a voice. "Mom, Dad didn't ask for much. Don't you think it's a bit heartless not to agree to his small request?"
Huh? Isabella was startled, turning to see a young man standing there. He bore a striking resemblance to his cousins and was equally handsome. At that moment, his face was etched with distress as he supported a frail-looking woman.
The woman's long hair fluttered gently, and her white dress gave her an ethereal, almost daffodil-like purity and beauty. It was Yasmine. Her eyes were swollen with tears, and she looked more upset than ever.
Greta was about to ask if she was injured when Niel cut in, "Are you hurt?"
For a brief moment, everyone around them found the situation odd, but their thoughts were quickly internunted de Vacmine ruched overin Crets tears streaming doum her face "Voti'ra re 15:33

divorce? After all these years of love, how can you just end it like this? Don't be impulsive. Many prominent families go through similar situations!"
Facing Yasmine, Greta's expression softened slightly. "I know you're worried about me, but I can't continue this anymore."
Yasmine turned to Niel. "Niel, please reconsider."
Niel grimaced before finally responding, "I just want to give her a home."
Tears welled up in Yasmine's eyes, spilling down her cheeks.
"I won't object to your divorce," the young man, Lancelot, interjected, stepping forward with a determined look. "But about the division of property, Mom, I don't agree with you." What did I just hear? He's Aunt Greta's son! Why can't he try to put himself in his mother's shoes? Are all sons like that? Isabella was shocked.
Christopher and Alexander denied internally upon hearing that. Hey, we're not like him!
Isabella frowned. But there's something off about Lancelot and this good friend of Aunt Greta's... Is it not a typical affair leading to divorce? I need to look into this.
The Quirks, having heard Isabella's thoughts, began speculating as well.
However, they thought no one would openly bring their mistress over like this. That would be too outrageous.
