Grand Old Master Yorks refused to let the Yorks' bloodline wander far from home and instructed the Corvettes immediately, "Stop them." Suddenly, a dozen Corvettes rushed up and surrounded Shirley.

Angeline glared furiously at Jay, placing all her hopes on Jay at the moment. He was part of the Yorks too, and hopefully, a reasonable one.

Jay, however, was engulfed in despair at the moment. The news of their divorce had hit him hard. He wanted to go all out and make Angeline stay, but the words 'I'm tired' that Angeline said had struck him with such a heavy blow that it drained every last bit of strength left in him.

At this moment, his world was desolated. His brain was a complete blank, leaving only a flawless exterior shell as he stood there like a dog without its master.

Angeline sighed weakly when Jay did not respond.

"Let them go." Suddenly, a sonorous voice rang out.

Everyone turned to look at the source of the voice. Cole's mother was seen walking over with decisive steps. Spencer was following closely behind her.

Grand Old Master Yorks roared. "Shirley is carrying

your grandson, how can you let her go?"

Chloe said in an immensely overbearing tone, "Sis, just because your last name isn't Yorks, you think you can let the Yorks' bloodline wander out there on the streets?"

Mrs. Yorks darted her a faint glance and ignored her completely. Instead, she walked up to Angeline and smiled. "Angeline, you've always appeared soft and meek to me. But today, seeing you dragging your sick body and bravely abandoning the Imperial Capital's crown prince to rebel against the Yorks' bandit ways, I now have a whole new level of respect for you. All my life I've lived feeling aggrieved and helpless, and I thought to myself that maybe it's time I learn something from you."

Spencer grew anxious. "What nonsense are you talking about, honey?"

Mrs. Yorks turned her head to look at Spencer, her eyes filled with sarcasm and contempt. "Spencer, I've wasted my whole life on you, but I don't blame you. I blame myself for not plucking up the courage to go all out to fight for my own dignity and pride soon enough like what Angeline is doing now. Today, let me, this middle-aged woman, adopt the fearless spirit of the young people. I've made the decision to get a divorce, and today, you and I will call it quits."

Spencer had always put off dealing with Mrs. Yorks' willfulness because he knew that no matter how angry Mrs. Yorks was, she would always end up

hiding in the ancestral hall.

He always thought that she would one day cool off, and when that happened, he would then go and visit her and coax her. Life had always been about muddling along.

Right now, however, Spencer was flustered when he heard Mrs. Yorks was determined to break the deadlock. He could not imagine how bleak his life would be without Mrs. Yorks.

"Don't say things like that, honey. We're an old couple now, why are you bringing up the subject of divorce?! Besides, what are you planning to do once we divorce? Who will serve you three meals a day? Where are you planning to go and how will you make a living?" Spencer was so anxious that he rambled on.

Mrs. Yorks burst out laughing as her eyes fell on Angeline's trembling fists. She said, "Despite her weak body, Angelina is able to muster up the courage to leave Jay who loves her like no other, let alone a normal person like me. Why do I even need the courage to leave a man who doesn't deserve my love?"

Having said that, Mrs. Yorks relieved Angeline of the luggage in her hand and said, "Let's go, Angeline."

Grand Old Master Yorks looked at the resolute and determined daughters-in-law of the Yorks. At that very moment, sorrow washed over him. The old man's greatest wish in life had been nothing more than a family reunion.

Who would have thought that his daughter and son-in-law's return would be a disaster lurking within good fortune? It was because he had indulged his daughter and chose not to handle the conflict between Chloe and Angeline from a fair standpoint that he had now caused his daughters-in-law to eventually leave home. The family had fallen apart.

"I was wrong." It was too late for regrets for Grand Old Master Yorks.

Chloe's face was ice-cold. She probably did not expect that her going against Angeline would cause the situation to get so out of hand.

She had forced Angeline to divorce Jay and forced her to leave Mount Pearl, yet before she could taste the fruits of her victory, she was caught off guard by Shirley and Mrs. Yorks' decision to leave home together.
