Her Graceful War Song by Summer's Blaze

Chapter 512

When Samuel was summoned back to Gracehold Estate, he continued to maintain a haughty attitude. He insisted that he had done nothing wrong, and claimed that the reprimand and the stripping of his title as heir were signs of the king's folly. The young man was arrogant and self-righteous. He looked down on everyone around him, including his own parents and family. He was convinced that he alone was in the right.

Seeing Samuel's obstinate attitude, Noah was enraged and slapped him across the face.

"Go and apologize to the duchess immediately! If you dare to voice any more dissatisfaction with the king, get out and never set foot in our family's residence again. And that includes the manor on Hibiscus Lane!"

Samuel had returned home with a lingering sense of unease. After losing his status as heir, he had hoped that his family would support him through his protests. If they had, he would have reluctantly yielded and brought Ruby back with him. However, no one sided with him when he returned home. Even his grandmother, who had always favored him, remained silent. Now, after being slapped and forced to apologize to Leona, his rebellious spirit only intensified.

He covered his face and roared angrily, "Fine, take everything back! You want me to apologize to her? Never! She's the one who was jealous and couldn't stand Ruby. She's the reason Ruby got hurt, and she even complained to her cousin! She's why the Hell Monarch brought trouble to our family! Are you really okay with this? Or are you just bowing to power? If you're going to buckle under pressure, that's your issue, but don't expect me to lack spine like you do. That will never happen!"

"Ungrateful wretch! Are you trying to ruin the entire family?" Noah trembled with rage.

Samuel's other relatives present also criticized him.
