Chapter 673: You're the homewrecker!
"Ivy..."
Alexander tightly embraced Ivy, comforting her, "She must be worried that her current appearance frightens you, afraid that your husband and children won't accept her."
"But I can help her. I can cure her!" Ivy's tears fell like pearls.
"Don't cry, Ivy. I know you have the ability to save people, but she doesn't know. Don't worry, I have a way to find her."
Saying that, he grabbed Ivy's hand, "Get in the car, follow me!"
Alexander drove back to the baozi shop.
As soon as the baozi shop owner saw Alexander and Ivy, he couldn't wait to talk about the old lady from before.
"Let me tell you, that bald old lady has been wandering around here for many years. I heard that she was a beautiful actress when she was young, but later became a homewrecker and was disfigured in a big fire..."
Before he could finish his words, Ivy interrupted him.
"You're the homewrecker! Don't talk nonsense!"
The baozi shop owner couldn't help but laugh and cry at Ivy's words. He pointed to his stout body and said, "Even if I wanted to be a homewrecker, no one would want me! The things I just told you were all things I heard. If you know the truth, you can tell us!"
Of course, Ivy wanted to speak up. She wanted to clear her mother's name and let everyone know that her mother wasn't the homewrecker, Isadora was!
She took a deep breath and explained the reason for Scarlett's disfigurement.
"Her name is Scarlett, the only daughter of the Ross family. Over twenty years ago, when her mother passed away, Isadora, her closest friend, moved into the Ross family under the pretense of accompanying her.
Scarlett thought that Isadora's move was only to keep her company, but she never expected that within less than a year, Isadora climbed into her father's bed and became her stepmother.
Since then, Scarlett lost her status in the family, and no matter what she did, it was always wrong. Even the slightest mistake would result in being kicked out of the house by her father and stepmother.
After leaving the Ross family, Scarlett had no source of income, so she became an actress, hoping to find solace in Marcus, a man she fell in love with.
With her mother's death and her father's remarriage, Scarlett couldn't feel any warmth of a family. She placed all her hopes on Marcus, hoping to build a family and have her own little home.
But her classmate and stepmother, the shameless Isadora, never let her have a peaceful life. She exaggeratedly told Mr. Simmons that Scarlett was acting and had fallen in love with a penniless man. As the Ross family's daughter, being so promiscuous and corrupt, she would eventually squander the Ross family's wealth.
Mr. Simmons believed Isadora's words, fearing that the family fortune would truly be lost in his daughter's hands. He took the initiative to talk to his daughter and forbade Scarlett from acting and associating with the penniless man if she wanted to remain the Ross family's daughter.
Scarlett spoke up for her beloved and defended him."
And it had no effect whatsoever. In order to be with her beloved, she ultimately chose to leave the Ross family and completely cut ties with her father.
The Marcus that she deeply loved, never knew Scarlett's identity as the young mistress of the Ross family. He only saw her as an ordinary rich person.
Speaking of this Marcus, his family wasn't ordinary poor. It was an endless abyss that couldn't be filled no matter how much was poured in. He had a paralyzed brother and a critically ill mother. Both his brother and mother suffered in pain every day, anxiously waiting for money to help them.
Marcus had to rack his brains every day to come up with ways to raise money. The reason why he got together with Scarlett wasn't out of true love, but just to get some money to pay for his mother and brother's treatment.
When Scarlett gradually couldn't come up with any more money, Marcus chose to let go. Without saying a word, he moved on to find his next target.
Scarlett had no idea why Marcus had disappeared and couldn't find this man anywhere. She felt pessimistic and desperate.
But soon, she became pregnant with Marcus' child, twin daughters.
Scarlett, who gave birth to the children, was weak and impoverished, unable to support her daughters. She had no choice but to bring the twin girls to the Ross family, hoping to get her father's help.
After all, these children were also descendants of the Ross family. She believed that her father, no matter how heartless, couldn't possibly ignore them.
When Scarlett carried the twin babies back home in the heavy snow, she discovered a shocking news...
At this point, Ivy unintentionally realized that she was surrounded by people, all of whom were listening attentively to her story.
"What news? Hurry up and tell us!"
The onlookers were all anxious, unable to wait to know what happened next.
