Chapter 296
Ophelia returned to the apartment, feeling very good. As soon as she entered, she bumped into Winfordโs dark gaze. โWhere did you go?โ
โI told Graham to talk to you; I went to find Nora,โ Ophelia ran towards him. Halfway there, she noticed the manโs lips were pressed down, looking rather unhappy. Suddenly, she realized that her phone had a location feature, and he probably already knew she had gone to the Pruitt family. If she had hidden it, he wouldnโt have known what to think!
So, at the moment she hugged him, she calmly continued, โThen I went to see the Pruitt familyโs next game with Nora.โ
Hearing her speak the truth so candidly, Winfordโs expression softened a bit as he embraced her. โWhatโs so interesting about that?โ he asked.
Ophelia hummed and said without any concealment, โSeeing Cullen in such a miserable state made me very happy!โ
She stood on tiptoe and kissed the manโs chin. โHoney, thank you. I had wanted to deal with that scumbag Cullen for a long time!โ
Winfordโs expression finally relaxed. Ophelia was pulling him upstairs when suddenlyโ
โMr. Winford, madam, the Greene family came and said they were here to apologize to you!โ
The Greene family, an apology? Ophelia raised an eyebrow. โOutside.โ
โDad, no! I didnโt want to apologize to Ophelia!โ Bessie had tears streaming down her face as she struggled. Kneel down and apologize to Ophelia? How could it be possible! She didnโt want it!!
โAre you trying to kill the Greene family?!โ Samuel was furious and suddenly slapped her hard across the face! Bessie screamed and fell to the ground!
โBessie!โ Erin rushed forward to support her daughter. When she saw that Samuel was still about to strike, she quickly stopped him and cried out, โBessie is your daughter! How could you be so cruel to her?!โ
โDaughter? I would rather not have such an embarrassing daughter!โ Samuel gasped, furious.
Bessie was stunned by the slap, her head buzzing. She fell into Erinโs arms, covering her painfully throbbing face, and after hearing Samuelโs disdainful words, her face turned pale.
Erin was also frightened by Samuelโs expression. She cried with tears streaming down her face, โBut Bessie didnโt do anything wrong either. It was already unfair for you to force her to apologize to Ophelia. How could you be so harshโฆโ
โAre you still speaking up for her? Is the downfall of the Pruitt family not enough for you to see clearly?!โ Samuel shouted. โCullen offended Ophelia, and just like that, the entire Pruitt family vanished! So, what do you think your good daughter will face for not apologizing? How will Mr. Winford deal with us, the Greene family?!โ
Erinโs expression instantly froze.
โShe was raised by you to be a good daughter! She didnโt learn anything good, only followed your bad example, and could only seduce men!โ
โPreviously, she had seduced Ms. Boltonโs boyfriend, provoking the Bolton familyโs revenge. I had already tolerated her once! As a result, she couldnโt live without a man, could she? She even dared to seduce Ms. Estradaโs fiancรฉ! She even dared to slander Mr. Winfordโs wife! Was she afraid that the Greene family wouldnโt be ruined?โ
โThe Estrada family was dealing with us, Mr. Winford was likely to intervene as well, and I, Samuel, had also gotten involved with a daughter who specialized in seducing men, enduring ridicule and losing face in the entire upper circle!โ
โIt was just a slap, I even felt that I had held back. I wished I could haveโฆkilled her!โ
