Chapter 463: Chapter 479: You Promised I Still Have You (21)

Even causing Elijah Smith to become disgusted with Isabel Smith, drawing closer to him, and squandering all the stocks he had in his hands. But who would have guessed that Isabel had long been prepared!

Evelyn Osbert couldn’t help but take two steps forward: "That’s Elijah Smith’s money, what do you have to not give him a cent?"

While dusting off the ceramic cup, Isabel spoke leisurely to Evelyn: "Evelyn Osbert, aren’t you so disappointed right now? You’ve exhausted so much effort doing so many things, yet in the end, your ultimate goal has not been reached."

"Elijah Smith’s money is indeed with me, and the purpose of my doing so, actually, Evelyn Osbert, I think you’re well aware deep down, aren’t you?"

Isabel placed the dusted ceramic cup back onto the table and slowly turned her head, staring at Evelyn’s eyes: "It’s simply that I don’t want Elijah Smith’s money to be spent on you."

Isabel knew how to strike at Evelyn’s weak spot and learned it from Evelyn herself. Once she had flaunted Elijah in front of her, now she wanted to return it all to her bit by bit: "To tell you the truth, as early as the first time I came to the Smith family for dinner, Elijah gave me his money and stocks."

Even though she had snatched it away, she had to say it like that. She wanted to let Evelyn taste the feeling of losing something she thought she had always been in control of.

The moment Evelyn heard that, her face changed to an ugly look, her hands clenched into fists tightly.

Isabel looked at Evelyn’s accumulated anger with appreciation for a while and then said: "Evelyn Osbert, I’ve told you long ago, don’t think about doing anything to Elijah Smith; he and I are genuine siblings, while you are always just an outsider."

Isabel paused for a moment, and her tone suddenly turned cold: "Just like when you’re in the Smith family, even though Smith’s blood flows through your veins, you are still a burden and an outsider!"

In her entire life, what Evelyn hates most is being mocked like this. Her anger made her entire body tremble. She wanted to curse at Isabel, but couldn’t find the words. Finally, she could only look around, and seeing the ceramic cup Isabel had just cleaned, she knew that it was the most precious thing left by Isabel and her parents. In her rage, she lifted her hand, grabbed the ceramic cup, and smashed it against the ground fiercely.

The porcelain shattered easily, scattering all over the ground.

Upon hearing the "crack", Isabel saw the ceramic pieces that she had once made with her mother and father now shattered on the floor. Her face instantly turned ugly, and without thinking, she raised her hand and gave a fierce slap to Evelyn’s face.

Isabel’s slap was especially harsh, exerting all her strength. Not waiting for Evelyn to regain her balance, she aimed another slap at Evelyn’s face.

At that moment, Elijah Smith returned home with many fireworks. As soon as he entered the house and heard from the housekeeper that Isabel was upstairs, he hurried upstairs without delay. The moment he pushed open the door to Isabel’s bedroom, he saw the scene of Isabel slapping Evelyn.

Elijah Smith’s eyes widened in shock as he instinctively stepped forward, grabbing Isabel’s hand, raised to slap Evelyn again: "Isabel Smith, what are you doing?"

With red-rimmed eyes, Isabel only glanced at Elijah Smith and then fiercely withdrew her hand from his grasp. She silently squatted down, beginning to pick up the shattered ceramic pieces on the floor.

Elijah Smith frowned and said, "Isabel Smith, don’t pick them up, be careful not to cut your fingers."

Perhaps it was a coincidence, but just as Elijah Smith said this, Isabel’s trembling fingers accidentally cut into a ceramic shard.

Bright red blood oozed out.
