"You've had enough of being Mrs. Lewis for these years. I advise you to leave Oliver as soon as possible and don't make things so ugly. If not, I'll make sure Oliver doesn't leave you a cent. And I'm quite certain your mother won't be able to live much longer without any money."
Anger instantly surged within me, and I shook off her hand that was grabbing my clothes.
"Just try to hurt my mother!" I warned.
With that, I swung my arm. Cleo took advantage of the momentum and fell backwards with a scream, and the gifts scattered across the ground.
Oliver arrived in time to help her up. His voice was filled with concern as he asked, "Cleo, are you okay?"
Cleo's demeanor abruptly shifted from arrogance to timidity as she spoke in a subdued tone. "Oliver, I'm fine. I just want to go in and see Sunshine. If Eloise doesn't want to, forget it. Don't blame her."
Oliver helped her up, immediately came to me, and slapped me hard.
"Eloise! I have tolerated you for a long time. Cleo bought so many things specially to see Sunshine. Don't go too far. Let Sunshine come out quickly!" he exclaimed.
Oliver smacked me with all his strength, causing me to fall to the ground.
"See Sunshine? She wants to see Sunshine?"
I sneered and continued, "She will be able to see it when she dies. Sunshine is waiting for this evil person in heaven!"
He pointed his finger at my nose, scolding me, "Eloise! You are Sunshine's mother after all! How dare you curse your own son so viciously! Good for you!"
I covered my burning cheeks, tears streaming down as I said, "Oliver, I want a divorce.
"I give way to your great love."
Irritated by my words, Oliver came to me and kicked me hard.
He fumed, "Who are you to ask for divorce? You need our Lewis family's help right now everywhere! Without me, who the hell are you?
"Want a divorce? I'll give you that! But you can't even think about getting custody of Sunshine!"
With that, he called his assistant and commanded, "Take someone to take Sunshine to the villa in the suburbs, and have the lawyer draw up divorce papers as soon as possible. The custody of Sunshine must go to the Lewis family!"
After hanging up the phone, he took Cleo away.
Cleo turned her head and flashed a victorious smile, showing her triumph.
