Chapter 233 Unless You Die
Hearing Kieran say Dad was useless, Gary felt extremely heartbroken.
Gary flew into a rage out of humiliation and said, “Key, what did I teach you usually? Are there rules in your heart? Who allowed you to speak to your elders like this?”
Kieran trembled slightly. He lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
However, large tears fell silently.
Looking at this scene, Gary felt even more frustrated.
In the end, Gary targeted Elodia again and said angrily, “If you want a divorce, it’s fine. Unless you die!”
With that, Gary turned around and left angrily.
Isabella stared at Gary’s back with a hint of murderous intent in her eyes. Gary was simply a top–notch
bastard.
Seeing that Elodia’s complexion was getting worse and worse, Isabella suppressed the depression in her
heart and said to Colin and Kim, “Uncle Colin, Aunt Kim, Elodia needs to rest. If there’s anything else,
you can leave first.”
Colin and Kim were silent for a moment before Kim said sternly, “We can go out. But, from now on, Key
can’t stay by her side anymore. She is always teaching Key bad things.”
Obviously, Colin also wanted to teach Elodia a lesson. Colin did not say anything and directly carried
Kieran
away.
Isabella watched the couple leave and walked back to Elodia’s side with a gloomy expression.
Isabella comforted Elodia. “Elodia, don’t worry. I’ll definitely help you get a divorce. What do you think
about Key?”
Isabella used to raise Ricky and Betty alone and knew how hard it was to be a single mother.
Fortunately, Ricky and Betty were very sensible. With the help of her masters, Isabella could live
relatively comfortably.
Elodia closed her eyes and said in a hoarse voice, “I’ve never thought of fighting for custody of Key. I
can’t even support myself. There’s also my family who are dragging me down. I can’t give Key a good life
and education.”
Isabella was silent for a moment. This was the cruel reality.
Isabella comforted Elodia, “Elodia, you’re still young. After leaving the Lockwood family, you can go out
and see how vast the outside world is. When you become powerful enough, you can come back and pick
up Key.” Elodia did not say anything, but her heart was filled with bitterness.

“Maybe I am too selfish. I shouldn’t have mentioned the divorce. Divorce hurt Key the most. I…”
Elodia silently cried.
Isabella was silent for a moment and did not know what to say. Then, Isabella said, “If you don’t get a
divorce, your unhappiness will also hurt Key. Children are the most sensitive.
“You can’t go against your heart and tried to be happy. It’s a lie to force a smile. As time passes, you’ll be
ruined. When it comes, it hurt Key even more.”
Elodia closed her eyes in exhaustion.
“Have a good rest. I’ll leave first. I’ll come and see you tomorrow morning,” Isabella said and turned to
leave. However, Isabella did not know that after she left, Elodia opened her eyes, which were filled with a
deathly
aura.
Gary’s words kept replaying in Elodia’s mind.
If Elodia wanted a divorce, it was fine. Unless she died.
That was right. No matter if Elodia got a divorce or not, it would always be harmful to key.
Then Elodia might as well die.
What was the point of living with a greedy original family like a bottomless hole as well as a cold husband
and his family?
Everything would be done with Elodia’s death. It was a relief for herself and also for Key.
Isabella came out of the shower and saw Draxton sitting on the bed playing with Ricky and Betty. It was
rare for the two elders to allow two children out to play like today.
Isabella smiled and said, “What’s going on? Did great–grandpa and great–grandma finally let you out
today?” Betty blinked her big eyes and said slyly to Isabella, “Mom, we changed our clothes with little
Betty and Little Ricky and asked them to accompany great–grandpa and great–grandma.
“Great–grandpa and great–grandma didn’t find it, so we secretly ran back to accompany you and Dad.”
Draxton said, “You guys came back to be third wheels, right?”
Betty and Ricky immediately turned to look at Draxton. Draxton immediately raised his hands in
surrender. Isabella chuckled and walked over. As Isabella dried her hair, she pinched their little faces.
Draxton took the towel from Isabella’s hand naturally and wiped her hair.
Isabella narrowed her eyes in enjoyment.
After a moment, Isabella sighed and said, “Elodia is too pitiful. Gary is really a piece of trash.”
“Key is also pitiful,” Draxton said.
Isabella recounted everything that had happened in Elodia’s bedroom today.
Isabella continued, “Elodia just woke up. It’s fine if no one comforted her or cared for her, but they were
all there to interrogate her.”
Isabella shook her head and didn’t look well.
Draxton stopped drying Isabella’s hair. When Draxton heard Isabella’s sad tone, his expression was
slightly solemn.
Could it be that Bella had lost confidence in Draxton because of the matter of Gary and Elodia? Draxton
was still hoping to have a third child with Bella in the future.
Draxton paid a lot of effort to finally let Bella put down her guard against him. If Bella was on guard
against him again due to this matter, what should Draxton do?
Draxton had to say something. Just as Draxton opened his mouth to say something, he heard Betty
speak. “Daddy, don’t worry. Mommy will definitely treat you well. She definitely won’t be as scum as
Uncle Gary.” Ricky also nodded solemnly and said, “Daddy, don’t worry, and continue helping Mommy
dry her hair. Mommy will definitely not side with outsiders. She will side with you.”
Draxton was stunned.
Had Draxton misunderstood something? Why else did Draxton think the children had spoken the
opposite way?
Isabella was stunned. Then, she could not help but laugh softly.
Isabella blinked at the two children and said, “Be good. You’re right. Daddy needs comfort.”
Draxton was speechless.
The corners of Draxton’s mouth twitched as he continued to wipe Isabella’s hair resignedly.
Draxton couldn’t help but smile slightly. It seemed that he was overthinking. Bella was not affected by the
matter of Elodia.
Betty and Ricky looked at each other, and their big eyes shone with the same light. Daddy was so
virtuous! Draxton said, “Even if they do divorce, the Lockwood family won’t treat Elodia badly. It’s just that
getting Key’s custody is a little troublesome for Elodia.”
Isabella sighed and said, “That’s right. When parents get a divorce, it’s the children who suffer. A good
family of three broke up just like that.
“Previously, Elodia said that she wanted to give up the Key’s custody. I saw that she was disheartened.
It’s really…”
Isabella suddenly stopped talking and sat bolt upright.
“Oh no, Elodia can’t be doing something stupid, right?” Isabella muttered in disbelief.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDraxton’s expression changed as well.
Ricky and Betty blinked their big eyes at them, tilting their heads and thinking.
“Mommy, are you saying that Aunt Elodia will kill herself?” Betty asked.
Isabella and Draxton looked at each other. Isabella hurriedly rushed out.
Isabella had to go to Elodia’s bedroom to take a look.
In the bathroom, Elodia was soaking in the luxurious massage bathtub, neatly dressed. The water in the bathtub had already turned bright red.
Bright red blood overflowed from the bathtub and flowed all over the floor. It was a shocking scene.
Elodia’s face was as pale as paper, and her lips were also bloodless. Her eyes were closed tightly, and the surrounding was dead silent.
Gary couldn’t fall asleep. He was very frustrated and still decided to talk to Elodia in the end.
With a dark expression, Gary thought that he would definitely let Elodia understand how serious the
consequences of divorcing him were later.
Just as Gary reached for the doorknob, he saw Isabella rushing over, followed by Draxton.
Behind Draxton were Ricky and Betty.
Gary’s hand subconsciously trembled. The door did not open. Instead, Gary was so frightened that he
fell. Isabella did not even look at Gary, directly pushed open the door, and rushed into the bedroom.
Coincidentally, Isabella’s foot stepped over Gary’s hand.
Gary stared at his hands in confusion.
Draxton looked at Gary in disdain and said in a deep voice, “Get up and go in to see Elodia.”
With that, Draxton strode in. Draxton’s footsteps were so fast that he almost stepped over Gary’s hand
again.
Fortunately, Gary was quick–witted and immediately withdrew his hand.
Ricky and Betty also walked over. The two little children stared at Gary and sized him up.
After a moment, Ricky shook his head with a deep expression as if he was angry at Gary’s
incompetence.
Betty was even more direct. “Scumbag, you’re finished!”
After scolding them, the two little children rushed into the bedroom.
Gary was stunned.
Isabella didn’t see Elodia on the bed. She scanned the bedroom and finally rushed into the bathroom.
Draxton’s expression changed slightly when he saw the two children enter. He stopped the children
outside the bathroom and did not let them in.
Gary was a little puzzled and did not understand what Draxton and his family were doing. Gary then
followed them in.
As soon as Gary went over, he heard Isabella’s loud shout from the bathroom. “Elodia!”
Gary’s expression changed and he suddenly looked up at the bathroom.
