the two-faced Adopted Girl Who Melted CEO's Ice-Cold Heart-Chapter 881: An Unbelievable Notion

"I didn’t plan to escape. This time coming to Brocade City, I just wanted to get out of his control, give each other some time and distance to calm down. As for the path ahead, let’s see what fate has in store." Delphine smiled lightly, her eyes filled with peace and openness.

Ignatius Leclair was too much of a worrywart. Maybe her departure would be a good thing for him, at least it could help him calm down and seriously deal with his condition.

Delphine felt a bit uneasy, deciding to call Arthur White in a couple of days.

"That’s right, the two of you do have two children, and now there’s a strong bond between them. You might cut ties, but the children can’t simply stop seeing each other either," Leah nodded, agreeing.

Delphine’s situation was different. Casimir Shaw had been raised by Richard Shaw since childhood, and the Shaw Family now cherishes this child as a treasure; even if she wanted to take him, she couldn’t.

"By the way, we were lucky to have Bessie Leclair last night," Leah brought out a tablet, showing her the scandal that exploded on the internet since morning, sat on the sofa, kissed Nicholas, and laughed, "I never thought Bessie Leclair would have a day of turning over a new leaf."

Delphine glanced down at the news from South Ocean, saying faintly, "After a disaster, she’s no longer as arrogant and ignorant as before, but is more ruthless than ever."

Upon hearing the news that Bessie Leclair was hospitalized, the newspaper headlines screamed with the shocking words that Jocelyn Yeager had killed his ex-wife. Delphine couldn’t help frowning; no matter how desperate Jocelyn Yeager was, he wouldn’t kill Bessie Leclair in public. Killing her would do no good; last night, Jocelyn Yeager’s confidant was actually trying to kill his mistress.

Bessie Leclair probably stumbled into danger herself. No wonder she said she could hold back Ignatius Leclair; now she had adopted seventy percent of the Leclair family’s coldness and hardness.

Leah nodded; she had never liked Bessie Leclair, and no matter how she changed, Leah didn’t care much.

"Jocelyn Yeager was detained last night. With the power of the Leclair Family, even turning black into white wouldn’t help. Once in, it’s hard to get out. Selling people, rape, it seems like Ignatius Leclair is truly ruthless. These noble scions never struggle with brainwork," Leah said with a hint of disdain.

The Squire siblings have never been skilled in these intrigues, so Leah disapproval was expected.

Delphine scrolled through Weibo, speaking softly, "This is their way of survival in the aristocratic circle. If it weren’t for Jocelyn Yeager’s relentless ambition to crush the Leclair Family over the years, Ignatius Leclair wouldn’t have thought of dealing with him."

"Even if you’re away, your heart still leans that way," Leah teased.

"I just know he’s someone with moral boundaries," Delphine finished browsing Weibo, sighed lowly, and said, "I’m afraid the Yeager Family will fall apart; there’s no one outstanding in the Yeager Family to take over such a mess."

The whole public opinion was one-sided, and many of Jocelyn Yeager’s past deeds were being unearthed. Delphine held the tablet, leaning against the sofa, feeling a chill for some reason. From the former Wade Family to the current Yeager Family, in the top elite circles of South Ocean, aside from the dominant Leclair Family, almost everyone else had been reshuffled. She wondered if the Leclair Family would support another family or possibly just abolish the esteemed status of the aristocracy?

Delphine thought of how Nathan Leclair had been frequently targeting the established families lately, and a sudden, incredible thought crossed her mind.

Would the Leclair brothers, themselves from a noble family, sacrifice their own interests to change the century-old structure of South Ocean?
