Chapter 497 Michael's eyes gradually darkened.
He looked at Erica quietly. Her face was full of greed and malice. He had accepted the fact that she was not very beautiful, but he had been willing to accommodate her, even her flaws.
However, at this moment, he felt that his life spent with Erica was ridiculous.
It had been more than 20 years. Erica should have accepted him by now but it was clear to him now that she just thought of him as a clown.
' What, you're unwilling?" Erica couldn't help but sneer when she did not hear his reply.
Michael took a deep breath and said, "Erica, you must know that what you are asking for is not realistic." Erica replied, "Alright, | don't want half of the Flouder family's shares. | know that it will be difficult for you.
Although you're the head of the Flouder family, you have other family members. | have changed my mind. | want half of what you have." Michael said, "Erica, don't even think about it. You can't take anything from the Flouder family, and | won't give you anything.” Erica's expression suddenly changed. 'Then I'll not agree to a divorce." Michael said, "You know, | have many ways to divorce you. If you agree to the divorce, | will still give you alimony after the divorce.
' However, if you insist on exhausting the last bit of our relationship and making things ugly, don’t blme for being heartless." ' Alright, then show me. Let's see what you can do to i] She was fearless.

' However, | have to tell you that | don't love you anymore. You have already lost the right to be fearless and demanding." ' Look at Patriarch Barker. He tolerated your mother for almost his whole life, but in the end, could he still do it? Erica, everyone has a bottom line." Erica was stunned, and a trace of confusion flashed across her eyes. She looked at Michael and shouted angrily, "Michael Flouder, what right do you have to say such things to me? Look at you. You've been a coward all your life. If you were half as good as Philip, | wouldn't have suffered for so many years!" Although Michael was already extremely disappointed in Erica, he still felt bitterly disheartened when he heard these words.
"For more than twenty years, do you only feel pain and bitterness when you are with me? If that's the case, why did you choose to stay withfor so many years?' Michael gritted his teeth and asked.
Erica wanted to say something, but she was stunned suddenly.
She wondered why she was willing to stay married to Michael for so many years. Of course, it was because he was accommodating toward her, loved her, and gave her everything she asks for.
But shouldn't that be the case? She was married to him. He should treat her well.
Michael looked at her deeply and did not say anything else. He only said, 'Erica, I'll give you one night. If you think through it carefully, well get a divorce tomorrow morning. I'll give you alimony, and you need not worry about money for the rest of your life.
"If you can't figure it out, I'll hand over all the Flouder family’s shares to my other family members tomorrow morning. Shelly and | will leave the Flouder family and give up our rights to the assets. You won't get anything either. At that time, I'll sue for divorce until you can't afford the money and time." Erica widened her eyes and looked at him as if she was looking at a lunatic.
Michael said, "Well wait and see. | have set my mind to divorce you. Don't even think about the shares. HI cto look for you tomorrow morning. Letknow your decision then." With that, he turned around and left.
Michael walked out of Erica's ward and bumped into Shelly.
Michael's expression changed slightly.
Shelly was calm as she said softly, Dad, | will support whatever decision you make." Michael's eyes reddened.
Shelly added, "HI go in and see her.' Michael nodded and left.
When Shelly entered Erica's ward, she noticed Erica was still in a daze. Subconsciously, Erica still could not accept that Michael would treat her like this.
Sensing someone had entered, Erica looked up and saw Shelly.
Shelly had lost a lot of weight, and she looked so thin that the wind could actually blow her over.
Her face was very pale, but her eyes were brighter than ever.
"Shelly, you're here. Do you know that your father wants to divorce me?" Erica complained. It would have been fine if she hadn't mentioned it, but once she did, she actually felt extremely aggrieved and tears welled up in her eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Tell me, how could he do this to me..." Shelly said calmly, "I heard everything. | heard your conversation just now." Erica paused and said, "Do you agree that your father is too much? Shelly, what do you think | should do?" Shelly said calmly, "I think it's best if you agree to the divorce tomorrow morning. After all, if you do that, he'll give you alimony. Things will not get ugly." Erica was stunned and said in shock, ‘Shelly? What are you talking about? How can I divorce him for just a little alimony? Am | that cheap?" "I don't know if you're cheap or not. | only know that you've despised Dad for half his life. In your heart, you've never liked him. | really suspect that you don't lovetoo." Erica looked at her in shock and said, ‘Shelly, what are you talking about?" Shelly stared at her and said, "Otherwise, why would you and the Wheeler family help Jerico Chancely escape? Shouldn't you take him down and take revenge for me?" Erica replied, "Shelly, what are you talking about? Don't you see the big picture? The Wheeler family collaborated with Jerico Chancely to take down the Lockwood family. You really hurtwith your words. | was injured by Yvette Barker and members of the Star Society because | wanted to avenge you. Couldn't you tell?" Shelly fell silent. In the past, although she felt that her mother's logic was strange, she would not say anything.
In fact, most of the time, she would listen to her mother and do what she said.
But now, Shelly felt that... Erica was really ridiculous.
"It was Jerico Chancely who did terrible things to me. However, you and the Wheeler family helped him. What has it got to do with Yvette Barker?" She asked.
Erica blurted out, If Yvette would submit obediently..." She stopped before finishing her sentence.
She coughed unnaturally and said, "In short, Mom loves you the most. Shelly, | still need you to be the mediator between your father and me. Either he givesthe shares or we don't get a divorce. You..." "Dream on!" Shelly's face turned completely cold.
Her eyes were extremely cold as she said," Mother, listen. Either you divorce Dad tomorrow, or like what Dad said, we will give up everything in the Flouder family. In fact, we don't even want any assets. At that time, well have nothing, and well just be wasting your time." "You..." Erica looked at her in disbelief. She wondered if this was still the daughter who listened to her every word in the past.
Shelly continued, "As for my enemy, | will definitely make him pay the price in this lifetime.
"And the Wheeler family... | will not have anything to do with your family anymore. Mother, think about what Dad said." After saying that, she turned around and left without looking at Erica.
As she turned around, Shelly's eyes turned red as she felt aggrieved. If it was the Wheeler family, Shelley would not bother but even her own mother would say that she should see the big picture.
