Chapter 1115
“Why are you yelling at the kid? Let’s go p>
The officer was about to take them away when Claire suddenly rushed over.
“Where are you taking him? Where are you taking my husband p>
Cecil quickly shouted at Claire,
“They’re saying I’ve been abusing you. Tell the cops right now, have I ever laid a hand on you p>
Claire paused, subconsciously tugging at her clothes, scared her scars would show.
She shook her head, vigorously,
“No, he’s never hit me! Officer, you’ve got it all wrong p>
Elysia couldn’t stand it any longer!
She handed Emmett to Blossom, asking her to take Emmett and Evan back inside.
Once the kids were gone, Elysia confronted Claire in front of the officers,
“If he hasn’t hit you, then where did those scars come from? And your daughter’s injuries p>
“We… we just bumped into things p>
“Bumped into things? You’re protecting him, disregarding your own safety, and even your daughter’s? You’re a mother, how can you tolerate your daughter being abused p>
“I’m not neglecting my daughter! No one loves my children more than I do p>
Elysia mercilessly rebuked her,
“What you’re giving her isn’t love, it’s harm! If you truly loved her, you would stay far away from this man! Let him face legal consequences, get justice for your child!
His so-called ‘taking your daughter to a big hospital’ is just a scam, he’s been fooling you!
The money left over from last night’s hospital visit, he gambled it all away. That was your daughter’s life-saving money p>
Claire was shocked and turned to look at Cecil.
Cecil clenched his teeth,
“Don’t listen to her nonsense. They don’t want to give us our son back, they’re making up lies to frame me. If I go to jail, my daughter won’t have money for her treatment, and you won’t get your son back p>
Hearing this, Claire was stunned for a few seconds, then turned to the officers,
“Officer, I’m his wife, he’s never hit me, he hasn’t abused me, and he didn’t gamble. Please, let him go.
He’s the breadwinner of our family. If you take him away, what will happen to my daughter and me? Oh, oh, oh p>
Elysia was speechless at her response. This woman was beyond help!
The officers, considering Maria was still in the hospital, reassured Claire a bit, then took Cecil and Tarquin away. Claire collapsed on the ground, crying and questioning Elysia,
“We just wanted some money to take our daughter to King City f treatment. You’re so rich,
you spare us some? Conte

Listen to Cecil, give him the money, and he won’t come after Emmett anymore. Why do you have to provoke him?
Even if it’s for Emmett, can’t you just give him some money? You say
love Emmett, but why can’t you to money on him?” oocy

Elysia didn’t want to waste another word on her. She was a lost cause!
She couldn’t even understand what real love was.
A scoundrel who thinks a bit of money will solve everything?
Give him once, and he’ll come back for more, again and again… He’s a bottomless pit!
And Emmett’s situation isn’t about the money!
A nurse came running to find Claire; Maria was out of the emergency room.
Claire quickly wiped her tears, not bothering to look for Emmett, and ran off.
Elysia watched her frail figure, too exhausted to say more, the same thought recurring: there’s something despicable about those who are pitiable!
Trying to compose herself, Elysia went back to the hospital room to find Emmett.
Just as she reached the door, her phone buzzed with a new message.
She took it out to look p>
Her breath hitched, her expression changing instantly, nearly dropping the phone!
Elysia stared at the phone screen, feeling a chill down her spine, she sharply turned around—
