In the Sabella Mansion, as soon as the Sabellas entered the house, Clement became furious before Elaine could react.

“Can’t you act a bit more sensibly? Don’t you realize what kind of occasion today is? I’ve warned your multiple times not to let Naomi disrupt the event tonight. I never expected you all to be the ones causing the disruption.”

Elaine was so angry that her face turned pale. She rushed over to hit Clement. “Clement, you’re blaming this on us? None of this would have happened if it weren’t for you!

“You had an affair with Lily behind my back and even had a pair of twin sons with her. How can you do this to us?”

When Elaine mentioned his affair, Clement felt guilty, but he still had an angry and unpleasant expression

on his face as he vented his frustration about the recent events.

Seeing Clement remain silent, Elaine became even more furious and said, “You were so self–righteous just now. Why aren’t you saying anything now? Why don’t you explain how you got involved with Lily?

*Clement, I want to make it clear now, I’m divorcing you, Pack your bags, and get out of here!”

No matter how harsh Elaine’s words were, Clement didn’t take them seriously because he held the power

in this family. They had to obtain his agreement if they wanted him to relinquish them.

“Dad, you’ve crossed the line. How could you treat Mom like this? How could you have an illegitimate child outside, and not just one, but two? Instead of blaming Mom and me, why don’t you admit your mistakes?” Madelyn said indignantly.

When Clement glanced at Madelyn and Henry, his expression softened from the sharpness he had shown earlier. He couldn’t help but worry about Henry, especially.

Clement fell silent for a while and then let out a slow breath, saying, “Lily is all alone in Ashburgh, and I couldn’t bear to see her struggle on her own. Elaine, Lily has a gentle personality and never had any ambitions. Why do you have to make things difficult for her?

“As for our marriage, I will never divorce you, Elaine. You are the only one in my heart. I hope you can be more understanding and accept Lily.”

With these words from Clement, tears streamed down Elaine’s face. She sarcastically said, “Make things difficult for her? When have I ever made things difficult for her? Have I ever ignored her in anything?

“It’s because I’ve always been kind to her that things have led to all of you turning against me. And your want me to be more understanding and accept her? Clement, tell me, how should I be more understanding? How can I accept her?”

Elaine felt that Clement’s words were nothing but nonsense.

Clement’s attitude greatly frustrated Madelyn, but she felt powerless because her father was not on her side. She wanted him to send that woman and those troublesome twin babies away, but it seemed

unlikely with her father’s current stance.

Turning to Henry, she said, “Henry, our family is in such a big mess. Can’t you at least say something? Don’t stay silent like this!”

Tears welled up in Elaine’s eyes as she looked at Henry. “Henry, your father is being too unfair in this matter. You must speak up for your mother. You must stand on my side.”

Elaine knew that what she and Madelyn were saying was mostly futile. The one who could truly challenge

Clement was his son.

Seeing that Madelyn and Elaine had made their point, Henry took a few steps forward and looked at Clement. “Dad, I’ll take care of Lily and her twin sons. Please sign these two stock transfer agreements.”

Henry went straight to the point, causing Clement’s expression to change dramatically. He glanced at the stock transfer agreements on the table and asked, “Henry, what do you mean by this?”

Henry replied indifferently, “Dad, it’s inevitable that the company and our family shares will eventually belong to me and Madelyn. I believe that you, Mom, and Grandpa all share this idea. Since it’s just a matter of time, why don’t you sign the documents now?”

Madelyn quickly picked up the two agreements and started reading. Henry had divided his father’s shares equally between him and his sister, and there was an additional agreement beneath her transfer
