Chapter 1274
"Aren't you a funny one, Old Madam Shelby? I gave birth to Josiah, so г11 always have a place in the Shelby family as long as he's still alive."
Then, she glanced at old Madam Shelby with disdain. "Anyway, I advise you not to fight against me. After all, your time is almost up, and it's impossible for you to win against me."
Back then, Mrs. Shelby was defeated by Old Madam Shelby, causing her to feel aggrieved for all these years, she had been waiting to return someday to take revenge on this family. In her opinion, if she could not beat old Madam Shelby twenty years ago, would she still be unable to win against her twenty years later?
Even if she just dragged old Madam Shelby, she could kill her easily.
"Since you're so confident, why do you want to hurt the innocent Ivy?" Old Madam Shelby said, "Didn't you bring Ivy up and teach her yourself and then force her to marry Josiah by cruel means, just to use her against me?
"It's just a pity that Ivy won't bow to you, and she'll never join forces with you." Old Madam Shelby shook her head.
"You think too highly of yourself," Mrs. Shelby said indifferently.
"Am I wrong? Then tell me Why are you forcing Joe to marry Ivy? II
Mrs. Shelby replied, "Because she's Cooper's mom, and she's more naive and purer than Meredith because she'll never betray me."
"You really think she won't betray you? Do you actually consider her as an animal without emotions?" old Madam Shelby shook her head. "Let me remind you that even a worm will turn. No matter how filial Ivy is, she won't let you push her around."
"Ivy will never do that," Mrs. Shelby answered confidently.
Old Madam Shelby sighed when she saw how stubborn Mrs. Shelby was. "Fanny, even though you don't admit it, I know that you forced Ivy to marry Joe because you hated Joe's dad and me and wanted to take revenge on US. But there's really no need to harm a girl as good as Ivy."
After a pause, Old Madam Shelby added, "Tell me, what do you want? I'll agree to anything you ask for. Whether it's the position of the mistress of the Shelby family or Joe, they're all yours in the future, okay?"
Old Madam Shelby wanted to make peace, but Mrs. Shelby felt even more aggrieved.
Mrs. Shelby roared angrily, "old Madam Shelby, you're truly an actress! You were not only good at acting when you were young, but you're even better at it as you age! what do I want? If you asked me what I wanted back then and gave me what I wanted, would I have left Joe and gone abroad?
"Now that you've enjoyed enough, you're giving me alms? I don't need it!" Mrs. Shelby gritted her teeth. "The things that I wanted, I'll get them back with my own strength, and I'll make everyone in the Shelby family regret it!”
After Mrs. Shelby was done shouting, she got up from his chair. Then, she looked down at the stunned old Madam Shelby, screaming, "Didn't you ask me what I want? What I want most is that you die quickly. Just die already!"
"How hard is it for me to die? It depends on your capability." Old Madam Shelby said calmly after being taken aback, "Also, I don't think it was entirely my fault. Fanny, do you really think you did nothing wrong?"
"I never felt that I was wrong." Mrs. Shelby gritted her teeth. "It was your Shelby family who joined forces to force me away. It was you all!" Old Madam Shelby was speechless.
After the doctor checked on Ivy, Meredith asked anxiously," Doctor, how's Miss Landers? Do we need to get her to the hospital? II
"Don't worry, Miss Meredith. Miss Landers' fever has subsided. She just has to take medicine and have a good rest. There shouldn't be any serious problem."
"But she looks seriously ill." Meredith glanced at Ivy, who was still asleep.
"A high fever will make anyone drowsy. She's fine," the doctor assured.
"Oh, okay. Thank you."
"You're welcome, Miss Meredith. This is my job." The doctor packed up his things and added, "If there's nothing else, I'll return to the South Court first." The family doctor lived in the South Court. "Alright."
After the doctor left, Meredith touched Ivy's forehead and said to Josiah, "Her fever has subsided, and she should wake up soon."
