Chapter 783


    "Why are youughing? Mango, quit your nonsense as I didn''t do anything... I didn''t! I''m not the


    culprit!"


    Mango did not retort and she just looked at Delh with a smile.


    Delh felt a chill down her spine.


    She rubbed her arms and looked around subconsciously with a guilty expression while everyone


    else was staring at her with different looks.


    "That''s it, Delh, I have no interest in arguing with you what you did to me anymore and you can


    spill the beans when you arrive at the police station. I don''t want to see you anymore and I''ve


    already told the servants to pack up your stuff so that you can take them with you and leave now."


    Delh couldn''t ept the way Sophia talked to her as if she was the matriarch of the household.


    "Who are you to give orders here when you''ve just returned whereas I have been supporting this


    house for nearly two decades?"


    "She has all the rights to do so as she is my legal wife and the true Mrs. Song!"


    Delh became angry after hearing Carter''s words.


    "Carter, that''s not what you told me when we slept on the same bed! You bastard! It''s all because of


    you! Sophia would''ve be a nobody if it weren''t for you who refused to make me your legal wife


    deep down! I''ve served the Song family for so many years but I got no benefits in the end... How


    unfair!"


    Delh rushed toward Carter as she spoke.


    At that moment, Thomas frowned and he blocked Delh''s way in time.


    "Mom, stop it! Can youe to your senses? Are you going to keep on yelling and shouting here


    like a clown? I''m Mitchell''s and your child yet you forcefully send me to the Song family... Have you


    ever thought about my feelings even if you don''t feel ashamed yourself? What on earth am I to you?


    Other parents shower their children with love as they grew up, but what about me? Why did you


    even give birth to me in the first ce? Why?"


    Thomas was having a mental breakdown.


    He could no longer hold back his emotions at that instant although he had was a tough person deep


    down.


    Delh became speechless all of a sudden as she looked at Thomas''s tearful red-rimmed eyes.


    "My dear son, I do love you and I did everything all for you! The Song family is very wealthy and I


    have been very poor since I was young, so I''m really scared and I didn''t want to suffer as I did, do


    you understand? I wouldn''t have let Mitchell send you away if it weren''t for this reason... I have


    been pregnant with you for ten months and you''re practically part of me!"


    Thomas felt displeased deep down after hearing Delh''s words.


    "Money and money! All that you care about is money! You lost your morality and ethics for the sake


    of the Song family''s property and you even abandoned your own son. I see that the Song family is


    very rich as you said? Ha! You think that they are wealthy? Well, you could''ve just told me that you


    are short of money and I will give it to you! Mr. Ye has guided me to invest in Ornato Group and


    renewable energy systems all these years and even gold resources. I can tell you frankly that I''m


    probably wealthier than the Song family! You could''ve just asked me if you needed money and we


    could earn it legally! Why must you use such distorted methods to gain wealth and even murder a


    person? Is money or life more important to you!"


    Thomas growled as his tears blurred his eyes at that instant.


    Mango wouldn''t have wasted her time arguing with Delh if it weren''t for her concern toward


    Thomas. It was all because of Thomas and Nathaniel''s rtionship with him that she held back her


    actions.


    On the other hand, Delh asked after hearing what Thomas said, "Son, is what you said true and


    that you''re very rich? Are you wealthier than the Song family?"


    "Yes, I can give you everything if you wanted but what the h*ll have you done?"


    "Son, just forget what I did and quickly hire an outstandingwyer for me since you''re so rich as I


    can''t go to jail... I''m already so old and I''ll surely die in there if I''m imprisoned!"


    Delh held Thomas''s arm tightly.


    However, Thomas felt incredibly disappointed.


    Delh wasn''t regretful of what she did at all even at this point.


    Why would he have such a mother?


    Delh was looking at Thomas eagerly as he stared back at her and withdrew her grasp on him


    before saying coldly, "Mom, you are no longer a child and you should''ve known that you will


    eventually get your punishments when you decided to murder a person. Now, you must pay for


    what you''ve done."


    "Excuse me? Are you even my son? How can you treat me like that when I''m going to jail? Thom,


    hurry up and get awyer for me! I''m the one who raised Novalee and she spent a lot of my money,


    so how can I not let her return the favor?"


    "You''re letting her return the favor by killing her? Your intentions are incredibly terrifying!"


    Thomas''s words were extremely harsh but he actually felt incredibly heartbroken deep down that he


    could barely bear it.


    At that instant, Delh pushed him away.


    "You unfilial son! What an unfilial son! I should have strangled you to deathst time if I knew that


    you would be such a person now!"


    Delh''s words were cruel and they were tearing Thomas''s heart out.


    "Mrs. Ye, please let the police in."


    Thomas closed his eyes wearily as he said to Mango.


    "Alright."


    Mango nodded her head.


    The police had already arrived at their ce for a long time but the Ye Family''s bodyguards blocked


    them and let them stay outside for a moment because those in the house needed a talk with


    Delh.


    However, Mango knew that Thomas had already made up his mind after hearing what he said.


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    On the other hand, Delh was extremely shocked when she heard that her own son wanted to get


    the police to arrest her.


    "No, I''m not going to jail! There''s no way I''m going to jail! Thomas, you''re a freaking coward and


    scaredy-cat! Are you going to stand aside idly and watch your mother get arrested?"


    However, Thomas didn''t spare a nce at her as he was utterly disappointed in her.


    Delh kept on yelling when the police entered the house.


    "Mrs. Delh, pleasee with us for investigation!"


    "What are you investigating? I won''t leave with you! What did I do wrong! You don''t touch me! Don''t


    touch me!"


    Delh screamed as she struggled but she could not free herself from the police''s constraint and


    she was taken away while cursing.


    Then, Sophia faked a cough now that the issue has been settled before saying, "Alright, this matter


    is over. I came back here this time because there''s something I need to tell you, Carter, and I might


    as well announce it now since everyone is here."


    "You should stop exerting yourself as your body is still weak... I''ll ask Walter to take you upstairs to


    have a rest."


    Carter stopped Sophia hurriedly.


    However, Sophia looked at him and uttered word by word, "Carter, don''t try to avoid the issue as we


    should solve it now. I have been living muddleheadedly for so many years and my son has been


    heavily burdened since he was young because of this. I have not done anything wrong to you in my


    entire life but I have surely owed my son. Carter, I''m really exhausted having entangled with you for


    so many years, so let''s get divorced now."


    Sophia felt relieved after saying these to Carter.


    It felt as if a weight had been lifted off her heart after ending their marriage that no longer had love.


    Why hadn''t she figured this out throughout the years?


    However, Carter shook his head subconsciously after hearing that Sophia wanted to divorce him.


    "Sophia, I don''t want a divorce and I know that I was wrong for neglecting you throughout the


    years...but just think about our past and consider how happy we used to be! Please trust me as I


    truly love you! Delh is right, I left you the title of


    Mrs. Song as I''ll not let anyone take that title except for you."


    "What''s the use of it? Isn''t everyone else addressing Delh as her Mrs. Song now? Don''t you feel


    embarrassed about what you''ve just said?"


    Walter spoke directly in front of Sophia.


    Carter felt even more heartbroken deep down as he heard how much his son detested him.


    He used to be really close with his son but their rtionship soon deteriorated and there was no


    turning back.


    Carter looked at Walter in sorrow as he said, "Walter, I''m father, your biological father! You should


    be telling us not to divorce instead of the other way round!”


    "There''s no need for you to emphasize our rtionship as I would''ve beaten you to death if you


    weren''t my father. I''m all grown up now and I can survive on my own, so I won''t interfere if you want


    to divorce as I just want my mom to live happily."


    Sophia held Walter''s hands after hearing what he said and she uttered with gratification, "Son,


    thank you as my life be meaningful and worthwhile all because of yourpany." "Mom, what


    are you talking about? You''re my mother and of course I should protect you."


    Sophia''s eyes were filled with tears as she heard Walter''s words.


    She ced the divorce settlement agreement in front of Carter and said in a low voice, "I didn''t


    contribute anything when we got married so I won''t ask for anything from you either for our divorce.


    Carter, we''ve been intertwined with each other for most of our lives and I''m really exhausted. I just


    want to live the rest of my life peacefully with my son and I only have a few days left."


    "No, I won''t agree to it as I didn''t divorce you even when I cheated, so I will definitely not divorce


    you now in consideration of your health."


    Sophia sighed softly as she saw how insistent Carter was and she said, "To be honest, I have


    already let go of my love for you all these years because of Delh, although I had once lived in the


    dream of warmth and love that you gave me in the past. I remember very well that you were the one


    who provided me shelter and protected me when my mother passed away and you also


    encouraged me to carry on persistently. You were my Prince Charming and my savior at that time


    but I had no idea why our love came to an end just within a few years'' time. You started drinking


    and began to neglect our son while having an affair. I didn''t know how to save our rtionship and I


    could only live aggrievedly while trying to please. I had always hoped that you can return to our


    family for our child''s sake but at the same time I have forgotten that love starts disappearing in a


    rtionship that is filled with grievance. I know that you didn''t divorce me previously because I went


    crazy and now that I have been poisoned with only a few days of life left, you would surely not


    agree to our divorce. However, Carter, I want to tell you today that even if I could only live for


    another day, I don''t want to be buried at the Song family''s ancestral graveyard after I die."


    "Sophia, do you really hate me to such an extent? I just made a mistake that ismon among


    men yet you''re not willing to forgive me even after you die?"


    "Never, because I''m a clean freak and I can''t ept a dirty person like you whether in terms of


    rtionship or your body."


    At that point, Carter was extremely hurt by Sophia''s words.


    "If you truly pity me and have a sense of kindness, please sign the divorce agreement considering


    our past rtionship and I''ll genuinely thank you."


    Sophia stared straight at Carter but he couldn''t bring himself to look into her dazzling eyes that he


    once fell in love for as he felt pressured by her gaze.
