Chapter 1274


    "Aren''t you a funny one, Old Madam Shelby? I gave birth to Josiah, so Г11 always have a ce in the Shelby family as long as


    he''s still alive."


    Then, she nced at old Madam Shelby with disdain. "Anyway, ? 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 yearster?


    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 nced 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 wee, 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."
