The Ex-husband Wants to Get Power Every Day After the Divorce

Chapter 165: She Almost Goes Crazy

Translator: 549690339

Samuel Richardson was at the door with his two daughters.

“Sister, it’s not too late for you to turn back now and save yourself the embarrassment,” Isabelle Richardson sarcastically reminded her.

Feigning ignorance, Emma Smith, standing beside Samuel Richardson, replied in a hushed voice, “I’m Dad’s biological daughter, and my surname is also Richardson. What do you mean by my being an embarrassment?”

Emma Smith cast a glance at Isabelle Richardson, pretending to be innocent.

Isabelle Richardson snorted and stopped arguing with her.

She would soon teach Emma Smith the meaning of real embarrassment.

Once the door opened, Isabelle Richardson was the first to enter. She scanned the room and froze in her tracks.

Samuel Richardson and all three Thompson brothers were present, and even Molly Walker was there!

What shocked her most was the presence of Amanda Leaford!

Amanda Leaford was awake!

Isabelle Richardson’s eyes widened in surprise, an ominous chill coursing through her body as if she had been struck by electricity, instantly turning her into a block of ice.

“Daniel, what’s the occasion today, to have such a lively crowd? Are we all here for a tea party?” Samuel Richardson also sensed something was amiss but still greeted everyone with a jovial tone.

Daniel Thompson sat on the sofa with a grave expression and anger brewing in his eyes, “Yes, we are here for tea and to settle some accounts.”

Settle accounts?

Samuel Richardson tried to leave the room but quickly found soundly the door had already been shut.

Feeling awkward, Samuel Richardson asked, “Daniel, what’s this …”

Daniel Thompson ignored Samuel Richardson and looked at Isabelle

Richardson, sneering, “Isabelle, did my family ever do anything wrong to you?”

At his question, Isabelle Richardson’s face turned pale, her lips trembled in fear.

Emma Smith watched on, feeling nothing but mockery.

Isabelle is such an idiot; she’s not making alliances where she should be. Looking at the current scene, it seems like she has offended the Thompson family.

As he heard Daniel’s accusations, it became clear to Samuel Richardson that whatever Isabelle had done, Daniel was here to settle the scores.

Realizing that he himself had once had Molly Walker kidnapped, Samuel Richardson frowned. Had he known this was the situation, he would not have come in the first place.

Looking at Isabelle, who had turned pale, he felt a sense of repulsion. It seemed she was incapable of doing anything worthwhile but was especially proficient at causing trouble.

But considering they were under someone else’s roof, he had no choice but to maintain decorum. He did not want relations to become irreparably sour. “Daniel, Isabella was wrong before. She did many things she shouldn’t have done. If you have any complaints, just tell us and we can clear up any misunderstanding…”

“It’s beyond resolution,” Daniel cut him off, “Your daughter attacked my wife with a vase. If it weren’t for a miracle, Amanda would have to spend her life bedridden. Samuel, you know me. Amanda is my life. Whoever dares to harm her is harming me!”

At the news that Isabelle had hit Amanda Leaford, Samuel Richardson’s face visibly fell.

“Is this true?” Samuel Richardson glared harshly at Isabelle.

In his youth, Daniel Thompson had been madly in love with Amanda Leaford. They had all laughed at him for being lovesick then. But even after so many years, he still treasured his wife the same. Everyone knew not to mess with the Thompson family, and Amanda Leaford was like a sacred entity to them.

He couldn’t believe that Isabelle would dare lay a hand on Amanda Leaford.

Isabelle Richardson opened her mouth to instinctively deny it but stopped short when she saw Gillian Thompson, sitting on the side, sobbing.

Her eyes were swollen from crying. Clearly, a drama had unfolded before their arrival.

But no matter what, she could never admit that she had hit Amanda Leaford. That would amount to confession of attempted murder, and if she ever confessed, she would not do it here.

“I didn’t break it.” Isabelle lied without batting an eye, “That vase fell from above, what’s this about me smashing it? Stop making blind judgements based on hearsay.”

“Isabelle…” Gillian Thompson tiredly called out, “Just admit it, I revealed you smashing my mother’s vase as well as hiring a hitman to kill my third brother. Stop struggling, stop arguing, everyone already knows your true colors.”

Upon hearing these words, Isabelle’s heart sank.

She didn’t expect Gillian Thompson to betray her!

With a darkened expression, she asked, “Do you have any evidence?”

Evidence?

Gillian Thompson was dumbfounded.

How could she have preserved any evidence? Every time she finished chatting with Isabelle, she would hurriedly delete the evidence. How could she possibly keep any evidence?

“Gillian Thompson, don’t blame your actions on me. It was clearly you who asked me to hire that driver, and I didn’t break that vase. You’re blaming all this on me, but I’m not taking the rap!” Isabelle smirked slightly, “Anyone who’s not blind should know that it was only you and me at that time. What you say goes? Has there been no justice?”

After she finished speaking, she walked to Daniel Thompson with a straightforward attitude, and sincerely said: “Uncle Thompson, I know you all don’t like me, especially Ivy. She has been blaming her grandmother’s death on me. If you want to send me to prison because of her, then you’ve made the wrong calculation. This is a legal society, I won’t confess to things I haven’t done. As for why Gillian Thompson would say that I did all these things, it’s because she did them! She is making me the scapegoat.”

“You’re talking nonsense!” Gillian Thompson’s eyes were red with rage. She angrily confronted Isabelle over her mistakes, “Don’t think that because I deleted the logs and erased all evidence you can just spout nonsense! Why would I frame you if it wasn’t you who did it?”

Gillian Thompson was almost maddened with anger!

Everything she said was the truth, and there was no need to hide it anymore. But she couldn’t have possibly expected Isabelle to be so good at arguing!

“Gillian Thompson, provide evidence when you make accusations. Remember, just because you have no evidence doesn’t mean I don’t.” Isabelle smiled and took out her cell phone. She opened a screenshot and handed it to Daniel Thompson, “Uncle, look, this is a screenshot of Gillian transferring money to me. If you bother to check, you will find out that the account belongs to her.”

Seeing the screenshot of seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, Gillian Thompson was dumbfounded.

Unexpectedly, Isabelle still kept this thing.

“Isabelle, you…”

“Enough!” Daniel Thompson interrupted her with an impatient tone.

He stared at Isabelle, a hint of menacing threat in his eyes.

Between Isabelle and Gillian Thompson, he naturally believed Gillian.

Thinking of Isabelle’s screenshot, and the fact that Gillian Thompson didn’t even keep a shred of evidence, he became even angrier.

It was evident that Gillian Thompson was set up by Isabelle.

Seeing Isabelle arguing so confidently, Molly Walker stood aside, her arms folded, a cold and dazzling smile on her lips.

Isabelle was the type of person who would not shed a tear until she saw her own coffin. As long as there was no evidence, maybe nobody could really do anything to her.

But God is fair, retribution will come in due time. Isabelle would never guess that there was a third witness, her own son!

With the latest developments, Samuel Richardson felt his heart lighten up a bit. He looked at Daniel Thompson apologetically and said: “Daniel, if this is true, I will definitely cut ties with her and personally hand Isabelle over to the Public Security Bureau. However, as you can see, your daughter doesn’t have

any evidence. On the contrary, Isabelle has screenshots. Actually, making a big fuss isn’t good for anyone. Here is a different proposal, we pay for the medical expenses of your wife, as for everything else you see…”

“Do I need your petty medical expenses?”

Daniel Thompson sneered, causing Samuel Richardson’s face to flush awkwardly.

“I believe no one would just slander my sister for no reason.”

Emma Smith’s voice rang out, drawing everyone’s attention to her.

“Where there is no wind, waves would not rise. Why did Gillian Thompson accuse you and not others?” Emma Smith smiled brilliantly, shifting all eyes back to Isabelle.

Upon hearing Emma’s words, Isabelle cursed deeply in her heart.

This woman was doing this on purpose!
