The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 268

He sighed deeply and said, "Leah, I'll explain this to you later, but this necklace is indeed Allison's. Let Penelope give it back to her."

Penelope was adamant. "Mom, this is my keepsake from Lucian. It's the engagement token he gave me when we were together. How could Allison have dad siding with her like this?"

Naturally, Leah backed her daughter, "Christopher, what's your deal?" She pointed at him, "Are you dead set on helping Allison today? As long as I'm here, this necklace belongs to Penelope and no one can take it away! Christopher, if you dare, divorce me!"

Faced with such a threat, Christopher's expression turned serious. He looked at Leah and asked, "Are you serious?"

Leah wasn't really serious. It was just a spur-of-the-moment thing. If they really divorced, wouldn't that cheap woman Grace benefit?

At this moment, she looked at Christopher, her eyes suddenly reddened, "How could you speak to me like this? If I nod, would you divorce me immediately? Have you been wanting to do this? Do you want to divorce me and then bring Grace back?"

"Leah, didn't you bring this up?" Christopher felt somewhat drained. He couldn't stand Leah and Penelope's tantrums anymore. He wished for a peaceful family life. Leah's past tantrums were tolerable. But today, after seeing this necklace, old memories suddenly resurfaced, making him feel uncomfortable.

After watching this drama unfold for a while, Allison chuckled and clapped her hands, "Done with your drama? You guys are quite entertaining, talking about divorce over a necklace."

"Allison?" Leah seemed to only notice Allison then, pointing at her. All her rage seemed to have found an outlet, "You'd better listen to me, and stay away from me, or else..."

"Or else what? Threaten me with my mother?" Allison's expression was cold, but she wore a smile. She walked up to Leah, "Leah, are you saying, if I don't obey, you'll stop supplying medication to my mother and let her die in the madhouse?"
