Chapter 1846


    Chapter 1846


    Ellinor turned to Bertha. “Bertha, it’s beyond a disciplinary issue now. Your stepdaughter just tried to


    ssh me with a bottle of sulfuric acid. Thankfully, she missed me, but my husband was sshed a bit


    when he tried to protect me. Now, she’s been taken away by the police.”


    What?


    Sulfuric acid?!


    Bertha, Lea, and Marlinie were all shocked.


    “How dare she do such a thing!” Bertha could hardly believe it. She knew Sophia could be a little


    extreme, but she never expected this.


    Once Lea got over her shock, she was filled with disgust. “Why wouldn’t she?! Dad has spoiled her


    since she was a child and has always cleaned up her messes, no matter what they were. She’s


    be too bold!”


    Marlinie was more concerned about her daughter and son-inw. “Ellinor, are you sure you’re not


    hurt?”


    Ellinor moved to the spot next to her mother and nodded. “I’m fine, Mom. Don’t worry.”


    Marlinie then looked towards Theo. “Theo, where are you hurt? Come here, let me see!”Books

    Theo moved to Ellinor’s side, reassuring Marlinie that he was okay. “Don’t worry, it’s just a minor injury.


    I’m fine.”


    Marlinie held her daughter’s hand with fearful relief. “Thank God you’re both okay!”


    Once Bertha had calmed down, she took a deep breath and stepped forward. “Ellinor, Mr. nchet, I


    apologize for what my stepdaughter has done to you. I’m truly sorry!”


    With that, she gave a sincere bow to Ellinor and Theo.


    Ellinor quickly rose and helped Bertha up. “Bertha, it’s not you who should be apologizing, but I hope


    you won’t me us for whates next for Sophia,”


    Bertha shook her head helplessly. “How could I me you?! Sophia is beyond help. Facing legal


    justice might be the best for her. Ellinor, could I ask you both to look after your mother while I go and


    talk to my husband? He’ll be a mess when he hears about his precious daughter’s arrest. I don’t want


    him to do anything rash.”


    Ellinor nodded. “I understand. Thank you for looking after my mom these past few days. We’ll stay


    here. You go ahead.”


    Bertha wiped away her tears, let out a sigh, and left with Lea.


    While watching Bertha’s retreating figure, Ellinor began to feel a surge ofplex emotions.


    Marlinie, lying on the hospital bed, shook her head and sighed. “Bertha has had a hard time over the


    years. She can’t control hér stepdaughter, and her husband is a fool. She’s done her best.”


    Ellinor turned to her mother. “Mom, don’t worry. We’ll only settle scores with Thaddeus and Sophia. We


    won’t involve Bertha or her daughter.”


    Marlinie nodded but still felt a little sad. Even if they didn’t involve Bertha, she knew that any harm to


    Thaddeus would hurt Bertha too.


    As a mother, she couldn’t ask her daughter to forgive those who had hurt them.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
