The Barrister's Love in Town

Chapter 572 Locked in the Basement

“Why are you afraid of me doing a paternity test if you have nothing to hide?” Casey confronted Eleanor, tightly protecting the items in the bag.

“You’re making a big deal out of nothing. Your dad has already taken a paternity test, but you refuse to believe it. You’re just causing trouble and trying to drive me crazy.” Eleanor started a game of cat and mouse as she attempted to snatch the bag from Casey’s hands.

However, Casey held onto the bag tightly. She ran around the house even though she knew that she couldn’t escape. After all, this was her home, and she was quite familiar with it.

“If you’re innocent, why are you trying to snatch it from me? You’re just afraid that I’ll discover the truth!” Casey retorted.

“Discover what? Casey, can you stop being as annoying as your mother? Haven’t you noticed that your dad hates you now, just like he used to hate your mother? He’s even taking you to court, and yet you’re still making a fuss here!”

Eleanor was determined to snatch the toothbrushes no matter what. She couldn’t let Casey proceed with. the paternity test.

With a loud slap, Casey struck Eleanor’s face and shouted, “You have no right to mention my mother! You

murderer!”

Eleanor covered her cheek in disbelief and said, “How dare you hit me! What’s wrong with mentioning your mother? And how am I a murderer? Your mother committed suicide by jumping off a building. What does that have to do with me?”

“If it weren’t for you, my mother wouldn’t have been driven to the point of jumping off a building! Eleanor, you still haven’t repented!”

Casey realized that this malicious woman would never admit her own mistakes. She would only shift the blame onto others.

“I dare you to say that again! How can there be such a shameless woman like you? The audacity!”

Whenever her mother’s death was mentioned, Casey couldn’t help but shed tears.

Seizing the opportunity, Eleanor snatched the bag from Casey’s hand and pulled at her hair, causing her to fall to the ground.
