Chapter 37
Chapter 37 Beryl did not have time to dodge the landline telephone at all when it came flying at her. It hit her body heavily, making her fall backward. Both her hands fell onto the shards of bone china. “Oww-” She screamed again. The pain was so intense that her body shook as she winced. It was excruciating! Yvette was so frightened that her face had turned ashen. Her entire body stiffened up as she closed her eyes. “I’ve raised a piece of trash!” Theo spoke with vile language, “If I had raised a pig I could have slaug htered it for meat! What do I get from raising you?” Beryl’s heart sank into an abyss. She immediately forgot about the pain in the palm of her hands.
Her mother, dressed in a figure-hugging dress, stood on the side. She was torn with anxiety but stuck in a dilemma. All she could do was clench her fists, not daring even to breathe, what more to defend her daughter. She was afraid that she would be lambasted as well. “You’ve done wrong, Ryl,” Yvette said, wanting to be in his good books. Her voice was low because she had a guilty conscience. The words had just left her mouths when Theo’s steel gaze swept toward her. “And did you do the right thing? A fake car accident! Aren’t you involved in that?” Nothing got past him. Yvette was so terrified that her entire body shook. She quickly shut up. “Idiots! Like mother like daughter!” Theo put his hands on his waist. That had been the straw to break the camel’s back. “If Beryl had just gotten married that day, could Violet have humiliated me like that? Now Jack Yancey isn’t the only one suppressing me, even Senior Yancey has started to push me down! I’m finding it harder and harder to get back on my feet, me, Theo Yeager! You can live on air from now on! No one can have it easy!”
LL “Yvette did not dare to look at his eyes. She felt dizzy from all the shouting directed at her. Beryl held her tongue and swallowed her grievances. Her dad terrified her so much that she was careful even with her breathing; miserable tears flowed fast from her eyes like waves. When Theo was done with venting his feelings, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s. “The two of you, listen to me carefully now! Stay here and do nothing for the time being! Don’t cause trouble for me! Be careful, or I will kill you!” Having said that, he angrily stomped off into the dining hall. The two of them in the living room had not yet come back to their senses when they heard furious smashes. Right after that, they heard his roars- “I don’t want the food anymore! Let me starve and die!” Yvette stood unmovingly in the living room, pursing her crimson red lips together again and again. Meanwhile, Beryl remained prostrate on the floor. Her face was soaked with tears while blood kept streaming from the palms of her hands. After the smashing noises ceased, Theo stomped out huffily from the living room. He soon drove off in a car that had been parked in the front yard. It was only after the headlights from the car had disappeared from their sight that Yvette finally let out a long sigh and quickly stretched her hand out to help her daughter up. “Why did you come back?” She almost stepped on the broken shards on the floor. “Hurry, hurry, hurry, get up. “What are you staring at? Come over and clean this up!” Yvette then yelled at the servant standing nearby, who had been terrified since just now. The ser vant, who had been extremely nervous, got to work in a panic. Beryl’s shoulders were shaking uncontrollably. She could not stop crying; she had been scared silly. Yvette helped her to the couch, where she sat down. Seeing her daughter’s hand bleed non-stop, she said, “It’s impossible to go to the hospital like this, we’re dead if the media catches us. I’ll apply a simple bandage, hold on.” Saying this, she got up to get a medical kit. “Mum!” Beryl asked in the midst of her s obs, “why didn’t you help and speak up for me?” NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Yvette placed the medical kit on the coffee table. “How could I help? I had gotten you all settled in but you came back 1/2 10:52 Chapter 37 suddenly to give your dad a surprise. Didn’t you see the news? The Yeager Group is insolvent. Senior Yancey is suppressing them, your dad doesn’t even have the chance to rebuild. You’re rubbing salt on his wounds on purpose!” “Isn’t it a good thing that his daughter is still alive?” Beryl asked miserably. “H o!” Yvette rolled her eyes and frowned at her. She sighed. “You still don’t get your dad.”
