Chapter 569 Let's Get a Divorce
Marie affectionately held her hand. "Mrs. Fenton's words are wise. As mothers, we shouldn't condone our children harming others. But when others seek to harm our children, we won't hesitate to defend them. They better not try anything!"
Josephine felt slightly nervous being held by such a charming beauty. "Ah, yes, t that's correct."
"All along, everyone believed that my condition stabilized because my husband brought back a child," Marie looked at Shane for the first time, almost as if she could see right through him. "I, like everyone else, also believed this."
"Everyone here is a witness to the love I share with my husband, especially Mrs. Winston."
Marie wasn't one to let things slide when it concerned her daughter. If they were against her, she might have overlooked it.
However, since no one intended to let her daughter off the hook due to her delayed arrival, Marie persisted. They were just like those people online who criticized her son.
Her illness had always provided others with an opportunity to attack her daughter.
Marie originally planned to resolve her issues with Shane slowly. But now that it had come to this, she didn't need to hold back anymore. "For this, I am very grateful to this child."
"I gave her almost everything the Quinnell family had, including the future and honor she desired. I also made a promise to ensure she always had food and clothing," she continued.
Marie retrieved a document from her bag. "The reason for my delay was because someone sent me a document. The truth is, my illness hasn't improved due to anyone's arrival."
"In fact, it further exacerbated my condition," Marie stated, casting a significant glance at Shane. "My husband always insisted, out of love, that my current state wasn't conducive to socializing. He said that staying safe at home was his greatest wish for me.
"Naturally, the child he brought along would keep me company. After all, that child was practically a replica of my Sevie when she was young.
"I lost my daughter and spent countless nights searching for her. It's true that I developed some psychological issues because of this.
"However, even in my right mind, I never consented to adopting anyone. No one could ever replace my daughter," she said.
"Now, regarding Mr. Quinnell," Marie paused. She took a deep breath to suppress her emotions.
She couldn't bear it--not because she couldn't bear to lose him, but because she couldn't bear to lose so many years of her youth.
From their days as students to marriage and parenthood.
Was it all a lie? Like the time he stood outside her dorm building on a cold winter day, building a snowman to make her smile?
Or when he vowed to love her forever, along with their children?
In hindsight, at this stage of her life, her once fervent emotions seemed suddenly futile.
Yet, even so, she had to make a decision.
Marie was acutely aware that if she didn't confront Shane, Naomi would continue to drain the life out of the Quinnell family and Wynter.
She refused to allow such a situation to persist.
"The details of my illness and your actions during this time are documented here," Marie stated.
She walked closer to Shane. "I harbor no resentment toward you. But I never anticipated that the one exacerbating my situation would be the one beside me."
She added, "The one spearheading the attack against my daughter is her own father, all for the sake of the Quinnell family's business?"
Shane panicked. "Marie, let me explain. It's not what you think. I truly have your best interests at heart." "That's enough, Mr. Quinnell. We're not children anymore," Marie declared firmly. "Let's get a divorce."
