Your Love Is But a Dream (Clara and Wren) novel Chapter 103

For a moment, everyone's thoughts were in turmoil.

Shirley's expression was especially grim. Martha hadn't just humiliated her with her words, but she had also insulted Ivy. It brought back painful memories of her past—those days of poverty and hardship when she had to endure the scorn of others.

It was a life she never wanted to revisit. It had been many years since she had suffered such humiliation.

"Mrs. Zachman Senior..."

Shirley was about to speak when Ivy stepped forward. "Mrs. Zachman Senior, it's one thing for you to insult me, but why humiliate my mother, too?" Tears streamed down her face as she bit her lip, her voice shaking with indignation, as though she'd been wronged beyond measure.

"What's so wrong with me liking Wren? Is it a crime to want to be with him? What have I done to deserve this kind of humiliation from you?

"I know you look down on my background, but I still have my dignity. Wren and I are in love. It's true love! Why are you so determined to tear us apart?

"Have you ever thought about his feelings? If Wren knew you were humiliating his girlfriend like this behind his back, do you think he'd be happy about it?"

"That's enough."

Martha let out a cold laugh, her gaze filled with disdain. She didn't even look at Ivy properly. "You like my grandson? Do you really think you're worthy? Don't think I don't know what you and your mother are up to.

"The older one seduces my son, and the younger one goes after my grandson. Ultimately, isn't it all about coveting the Zachman family's fortune?

"Spare me your nonsense about 'true love.' You might be able to fool others with that, but do you even believe it yourself?

"And now, you're trying to use my grandson to threaten me? Who gave you the audacity?"

Martha slammed her hand on the table, her gaze sharp as a knife as she glared at the mother and daughter. "You have one day. Move out of the Zachman residence. You don't deserve to live here."
