Of course, Elizabeth understood the old lady's words, her expression was a little stiff. If you were to say that she wasn't greedy, then that would be too hypocritical, but what she coveted was the warmth from the man's body.
"Elizabeth, I know that you are very fond of my Joshua, and I know that it would be very cruel for you to give him up, but the enmity between our two families is too great, you must make a choice." The old lady saw that she was silent and guessed what she was thinking. She gave a cold laugh.
Elizabeth knew that she had to show her attitude. Otherwise, the old lady would not let her go so easily. "I know, I'll try my best not to see himf'She said in a low voice.
"I'll only give you one month. If I find out that you're still pestering him after one month, I won't let you go." The old granny really did not want to separate them, but there were many things that could not be allowed to yield, or the consequences would be unpredictable.
Elizabeth was forced onto a dead end, so her breathing stopped. After a long while, a hint of despair flashed on her pale face.
"I know, I will leave!" Elizabeth closed her eyes lightly.
The old lady suddenly took out a card from her handbag and handed it to her. "Although giving money to you is a very oldfashioned method, I think you're young and have no career, so I also need to spend money on many things. If you take this little bit of money, you'll be free for the rest of your life!"
Elizabeth looked at the black card and shook her head: "I cannot take your money. Old granny, I know that you have good intentions and I also know that I really have to leave him. I have made my decision!"
"If you don't go further, my grandson won't give up on you. Do you understand what I mean?" The old lady saw that she wasn't willing to accept any money, so she didn't try to force her. After all, slapping someone in the face with money was a very humiliating matter.
"I know!" Elizabeth laughed bitterly, "I know what to do the best."
"Aren't you going to plead for your mother?" When the old lady saw that she had taken her bag, she stood up and was about to leave, but stopped her instead.
Elizabeth tightened her grip on her handbag, she bit her lips and said: "I'm so sorry, if she did wrong, then it's her fault."
"Good, you are a sensible child. Go!" The old lady on the other hand, admired Elizabeth's stubborn personality.
Elizabeth walked with empty steps out of the building and hailed a taxi. Wearing a mask, she only revealed a pair of sad and desperate eyes. The tears in her eyes instantly slid down. The beautiful life that Joshua Wayne had weaved for her yesterday might really be just a dream. Now that she had awoken from her dream, it was time for her to finally leave. Elizabeth had decided to leave this place.
At this moment, her phone rang.
Elizabeth took out her cell phone to look at her. It was Lily who had called her.
She placed the phone close to her ear and Lily's anxious voice transmitted over: "Elizabeth, have you seen the news? The matter between you and your mother has been exposed. A lot of people are scolding you."
Elizabeth's heart skipped a beat, she lowered her voice and said: "Aunt, I want to see you now, can you come out for a bit?"
