Chapter 6

Upon seeing this, Zoey secretly gritted her teeth, wishing she could tear Lucille's mouth apart. D*mn it! How come this b*tch has become so hard to deal with since waking up from drowning?! "Dad, I'm sorry," Zoey lowered her head and started crying again. "It's my fault. I shouldn't have accepted Samuel's pursuit. Please hit and scold me instead!"

Charles looked at Zoey with distress and said, "What kind of era do we live in now? Zoey and Samuel have feelings for each other, yet you keep harassing Samuel just because of some old engagement arranged by the previous generation! Your behavior is bringing shame to our family, Lucille!"

"You not only pushed Zoey down the stairs, but now you're also showing disrespect towards your own father. This behavior is completely unacceptable!"

Upon hearing this, Howard immediately waved his whip and shouted, "You are one rebellious daughter! Kneel down now!"

Lucille sneered coldly, her lips curling in anticipation of the fight.
