Chapter 545 545: What A Joke!
Henry's decision stunned everyone present, including Kelly, who had been quietly making tea. She looked up at their side, slightly surprised, then rose up and opened lightly, "Lilith, go back to your room."
Lilith was very reluctant but still had to listen to her mother back to the room.
Roy went to Henry and lowered his voice, "Dad, you can't do this. I can see that my mother didn't do this. Have you not known her for so many years? She has always been saying but did nothing. Even if she was dissatisfied with it, she only complained about it, and she could not do it with courage."
"Has she done little things over the years? I'm fed up, your mother has repeatedly challenged my patience with foolish behavior. Even if your mother does not expose the photo, she indirectly made it! Even if she's being used, it's because she's always been hostile to Irish!"
"Dad, Mom, has been at the Lake for so many years, and she works hard. Besides, this incident started because of me. Please don't drive away, Mom. If you drive her away, how do you live?" With tears in her eyes, Ruby went forward to beg for mercy.
"You don't have to talk for her!" Henry angrily yelled, "Who continues persuading, along with this woman, leave my house!"
"How could you be so unconscionable? Who am I working for all these years? I even gave you two children, right? How can you be so cruel?" Shirley began to cry, "Did I say something wrong? Am I wrong to ask justice for my daughter? You stand everywhere for Irish, and do you think of Ruby? You've seen Joseph and Irish getting together, and have you cared about that? You're not a good father at all! It is you who connived at Joseph's swing between your two daughters. Henry, do you still think you have no responsibility at all about the Lake today?"
"Shut up!"
"No!" With red eyes, Shirley, like a crazy woman, looked at Irish, raising her hand to point at her, looking at Henry, "How can you not doubt your daughter? This woman did anything to get back at the Lake's. Why don't you ask her if she forgave you? If it weren't for her, could we have so many things in our house? Before she returned home, we were calm and peaceful! In order to retaliate against the Lake's, she did anything to seduce her brother-in-law. What else could she not do? The photos did not only affect her but also affected the whole family. This was her purpose. She had to drag the whole family to die with her. Her purpose is to make the Lake family uneasy, that is to say, let us leave here!"
"Mom, you're done." Roy was helpless in persuasion.
"At this point, what else would I dare not say? Henry, you touch your heart to ask yourself, for so many years, are you good to me? It's me who's watching over you! Yes, you feel sorry for Rachel, even in your heart, you are resentful, but in front of love, which woman is not, I admit, I ruined you and Rachel's relationship, but I dare to clap my chest to say that because I have feelings for you. What about your daughter Irish? Her approach to the family had only one purpose, and it was revenge! To get back to me! She gets together with Joseph and wants him to divorce my daughter, and it is just to get back at me. Do you think she's really in love with him? If she has such integrity, can she not live in Joseph's house? Henry, you don't even know, Irish now lives in a house that Joseph left to his younger brother!"
Mary was startled, and so were Cassie and Irish. Only Leo looked calm as if he had known this matter.
Henry had no expression on his face and could not tell if he had just known about it or had already known it. After Shirley's hysteria was over, he looked at the housekeeper and said, "Take her back to her room, and before the divorce agreement is drawn up, don't allow her to step out of the door!"
"I will not divorce you! I will not allow the divorce even if I die!" Shirley cried.
The butler's face was embarrassed, and immediately, Henry roared. "Don't you hear me?"
Helpless, the butler had to assist Shirley, and Shirley refused to get up, so the butler had to give a hint to other nannies.
Then several people came up to pull Shirley.
Ruby was anxious. She stepped forward, "Dad..."
Only when she called out, she stopped by Roy, who motioned her not to pour oil on the fire. Although Ruby was worried, she also had to give up, thinking of another opportunity to persuade Henry.
Shirley was brought back to her room. Ruby felt sorry for her mother and went upstairs. Roy sighed heavily, glanced at his father, glanced at Cassie again, and finally went upstairs to accompany Shirley in silence.
The war ended in Henry's coldness.
Only Mary and others were an embarrassment.
"Let's go, aunt." Irish helped Mary with a face of chagrin. Of course, she did not feel pity for Shirley. Mary's face was red and swollen, which made her feel more painful than being hit on her body. She was bad, and she should not pull her aunt into the battlefield. Although Mary was still angry, looking at Irish's terrible appearance, she nodded, turning to go.
"Isabel." Behind was the voice of Henry, tired and powerless.
Irish's steps stopped, and she didn't turn around, but her lips pressed tightly.
"I hear the media have found your place. Stay with me, so they can't get in or harass you." Henry's tone was relaxed, and he was in a state of entreaties.
Mary sniffed at the remark and said, "What a joke! You got the Great Wall on your doorstep? Is Irish homeless? Stay with you? What did you do in the early years?"
"Stop, aunt. Let's go." Irish gently pulled Mary's sleeve. Her body and mind were haggard.
"Irish, even if you don't want to stay, you must listen to your father." Henry's eyes were full of anxiety. "This is a disaster caused by Joseph. Listen to me. Please don't come into contact with him anymore in this period. It's just a girl who suffers from this kind of thing."
Irish finally turned her back with calm eyes, "Will there be anything worse than this? Mr. Lake, thank you for your concern. I never bother you to worry about my affairs."
At the end of her speech, she pulled Mary and left.
Leo sighed, slightly nodded at Henry, and then left.
Henry stood alone in the same place, and his eyes were lonely, and soon, his frowning became more tighter, and his body shook slightly. Finally, the butler saw him and hurried forward to help him, shouting hurriedly at the other people, "Bring here Mr. Lake's medicine quickly."
