Chapter 211

“Smack!” In the living room of the Garza family residence, a crisp slap landed hard on Hayden’s face as he sat in a wheelchair, his left cheek swelling up almost instantly.

Norma rushed to him, both heartbroken and helpless. “Dad, why did you hit the kid? Hayden already knows he’s at fault,” she said.

“It’s all because you all spoiled him,” Geoff snapped, pointing his finger at his son, Qeturah, and daughter–in–law Norma, his voice full of bitter disappointment.

Qeturah didn’t dare talk back. He lowered his head and said, “Dad, please calm down. What’s done is done. We need to find a way to help Hayden. If we wait any longer, Ashton’s people will be knocking on our door.”

Geoff was so furious at his son’s words that he nearly passed out. “You… all you ever do is stir up trouble for me! Is there anything else you’re good at?”

Qeturah was annoyed, but he knew Hayden had indeed messed up this time. By the time they found out what had happened, Briar had already been kidnapped.

At that time, Qeturah was so scared that his legs went weak. ‘Of all the people to mess with, why did this brat have to go after Briar?

‘Briar is Ashton’s woman now. Even if he wants to target her, he shouldn’t be so brazen. Wasn’t one lesson enough for him?‘ he thought.

They could ignore whatever happened to Briar, but Ashton’s revenge was something they absolutely couldn’t handle.

If Qeturah hadn’t snatched Hayden’s phone in time and stopped the kidnappers from making the call, it would have been impossible to clean up this

whole mess.

Norma, after consoling Hayden, turned to plead to Geoff, “Dad…”

“Enough! Before Ashton’s people show up, quickly send Hayden back to Qathana to lie low for a while. If Ashton can’t find him, he’ll drop it,” Geoff said. ‘What else can I do? Hayden is my only precious grandson. Even if he messes up again, I’d still have to cover for him,‘ Geoff thought.

There was nothing that Geoff could do. Hayden was his only precious grandson. Even if he messed up again, he would still have to cover for him.

“Alright, alright. I’ll arrange it right away,” Qeturah said, his face lighting up with relief. ‘Now that Dad’s said so, once Hayden is in Qathana, no one will be able to find him,‘ he thought.
