Chapter 2096
Chloe persuaded her as well, asking, "Why bother, Crystal?”
Mrs. Yorks said, "I''ve made up my mind. Don’t persuade me anymore. From today onward, Spencer, you and I are strangers and we will leave our
fates to heaven. You don''t have toe and see me anymore. We will have no dealings with each other no matter if we''re dead or alive.”
Having said that, she opened the side drawer with trembling hands and pulled out a letter written in her own blood. She handed it to Spencer.
She did not even bother to say anything and closed her eyes, no longer showing any more reactions.
Spencer looked at the letter written in blood and read the firm, unrelenting words: [I, Crystal Sullivan, am voluntarily withdrawing from the Yorks family
because I have divorced Spencer Yorks. When I die. m y best friend, Angeline Severe, will take care of my funeral arrangements. I have no home to.
return to, nor can I return to my inws'' ce. I am adrift and homeless. My body will be cremated and my ashes will be carried along by the tide.]
When Spencer read the decisive letter, he burst into tears on the spot. "Are you really going to be so cruel?”
Mrs. Yorks pulled the nket over her body.
At this moment, the servant walked over andined with a cry, "Mrs. Yorks hasn''t eaten for a day. I thought she didn''t have an appetite but now
it seems like she’s intentionally going on a hunger strike.
Spencer was even more heartbroken when he heard the news.
At this moment, Spencer was not the only one who was breaking down emotionally-even Grand Old Master Yorks and Chloe were having an
emotional breakdown as well.
They did not know that they would hurt Mrs. Yorks so deeply for thinking kindly about Sandra after she died.
Angeline knew that Mrs. Yorks had a tough character and it would be difficult to change her mind once she had made a decision. Seeing how she
was determined to die and her strong resistance against the Yorks, she grew sorrowful as well.
Angeline said to Spencer, "You should all go out, Uncle Spencer. Let me talk to her.”
Spencer looked at Mrs. Yorks’ ashen face and then at the door. His feet were heavy as lead because he knew that he might never have the chance to
step into this room ever again once he walked out.
Mrs. Yorks was determined to cut off all ties with him and she would keep her word. Just like when she was younger, she had moved into the parish
hall and lived there for decades.

In Yorks Stronghold, men did not kneel. In Grand Old Master Yorks’ opinion, Spencer was showing the greatest form of sincerity by apologizing like
this.
They thought that Mrs. Yorks would change her mind this time.
However, Mrs. Yorks unexpectedly continued to lie on the bed without moving an inch no matter how hard Spencer begged her.
Angeline said sadly, "Uncle Spencer, it''s no use no matter what you do. Aunt Crystal''s grief is too great.”
Jay said, "Grandpa, Mom, let''s go out. Aunt Crystal needs some time alone.”
Jay had always supported Angeline no matter what she did. Angeline was addressing Mrs. Yorks as Aunt Crystal out of respect, hence Jay did the
same by calling her Aunt Crystal as wellN?velDrama.Org (C) content.

Spencer thought about it and agreed with what his father said. Mrs. Yorks was old and had nowhere to g o. She was just mad because he had given
Sandra a grand burial as his wife.
