Chapter 942: The Master Has a Task for You
The scars on River's arm, remnants of brutal whiplashes, were clearly visible to Kaleigh. Yet, she acted as though she hadn't noticed. After all, those wounds were inflicted by their grandfather himself-a punishment so severe it was meant to skin her alive if it didn't kill her. Hearing Kaleigh's words, River's face fell into a daze.
Yes, she was the heir to the Swanson family. Even for the sake of the family name, Ruud should not have treated her like this.
It had to be Alina. That woman must have been behind it.
"River?"
Kaleigh's voice snapped River from her thoughts. Kaleigh's gaze flickered with a trace of disdain, though she quickly masked it.
At that moment, Poppy came running over, accompanied by a servant. His small face was filled with genuine concern, and when he saw the wounds on River's arm, he almost screamed in fright. "River, what happened to you?" Poppy asked, his voice trembling.
River frowned and pulled her arm back.
The last thing she wanted right now was to see Poppy.
If it weren't for him, their grandfather wouldn't have punished her so harshly.
Kaleigh saw it all clearly, hiding the mockery in her eyes as she spoke to Poppy. "Poppy, can't you see? River was bullied."
"Bulled?" Poppy's small brows furrowed as he looked at Kaleigh in confusion. "Who bullied River, Kaleigh?"
Kaleigh's face darkened. "Who else could it be? In the Pace family, only Alina and her daughter Tina have the power to act so wantonly."
Poppy quickly pieced it together. Shaking his head, he spoke with clarity, "I trust Alina. She wouldn't bully anyone. Did River not apologize to Alina? Grandfather said River made a mistake and should take responsibility for it." Kaleigh raised her eyebrows but didn't respond.
River's face turned black.
She knew exactly what she had done wrong, but she hadn't fallen so far as to let a five-year-old lecture her.
Just as she was about to send him away, Poppy's soft, childlike voice chimed in again.
