Chapter 117
Christopher was determined to destroy Paul!
Just when Skylar thought she had seen it all, Christopher managed to lower the bar even further.
Paul was exasperated. “You shamelessly mess around with other women and the fake heiress from the Williams, then now you’re accusing me and Ms. Sullivan? Since you’re here at the hospital, why don’t you see a specialist?”
“Christopher, I always knew you were shameless. But I did
over and slapped him.
expect you to go this low.” Skylar walked
She wanted to do that for a long time. Everything he had done and the lies he had told had driven her to the edge
How could she have let him waste seven years of her life?
Joe looked at Christopher with an icy look, like a king looking down on an ant. He didn’t say a word, yet he exuded a commanding presence.
Christopher was stunned by the slap. “Did you just slap me for that guy? Skylar, you’ve changed!”
“Are you insane? Did you just hit my son?” Amelia yelled with a shrill voice. “Did you think Christopher genuinely likes you? You were the one clinging onto him. That’s why he had no choice but to be with you.
“Do you think you’re that noble, huh? Even your own parents don’t want you. You’re just a country girl. How
dare you slap Christopher? You deserve nothing but misery!”
Amelia’s outburst sent her into a rage. She looked like she might collapse on the floor. Her face was
contorted in anger.
If she had the strength, she would’ve lunged at Skylar and ripped her mouth.
“Ask your son to stay away from me. If both of you are so innocept and above it all, why don’t you give back every cent you took from me?
“I used to think I was helping the needy and doing a good deed. After all, even a dog would know how to be grateful to its owner. Now I feel nothing but disgusted by both of you,” Skylar said coldly.
Skylar took a deep breath. Her face turned even more pale than before.
She had never felt so exposed before, and it bothered her that Joe was seeing her in this state. It was like her vulnerabilities were on display.
Amelia had been sick. Skylar had spent more time taking care of her than Christopher did. However, the
only thing she got in return was insults and ridicule instead of gratitude.
Humanity could be so ugly.
A crowd had gathered around.

It was a hospital, after all. It was a big fight and there were plenty of people around as well.
Some patients recognized Amelia and quietly whispered to one another, “I can’t stand her as well. As soon as that young lady shows up, she acts helpless and makes her do everything.”
“And as soon as leaves, she’s back to badmouthing her. Calling her a fool for liking her son
e young lady and even saying that the young lady needs to please her or else she’ll have her son break up with her!”
That young lady was so sweet. If she hadn’t been so devoted to her son, I would’ve taken her for my own daughter–in–law.”
“It’s unbearable. Just unbearable.”
The patients weren’t loud, but the others could hear every word clearly.
Joe looked at Skylar and then leaned in to whisper to Paul.
“Ms. Sullivan, would you like me to find you a lawyer? I can make sure they return every penny to you,”
Paul said to Skylar.
He felt s
sick by the audacity of Amelia and Christopher. What a shameless family!
Amelia was startled by the mention of lawyers and how she would need to return every penny to Skylar.
She panicked. “You can’t treat people like this! You gave us that money of your own free will! Christopher, let’s go. Even if she regrets and begs you, don’t forgive her.”
