Before Pearl could say anything, a furious shout from Santiago came from behind.

"What have you done, you b*stard?!"

Pearl turned around, but before she could react, Claude received a hard slap across his face, instantly causing it to swell and redden.

"If I hadn't interrogated those people from the Jesseltons, I wouldn't have known that my son has the audacity to frame someone!"

Claude wiped the blood from his mouth and chuckled lightly. "You're this mad only because the person is your beloved, right?"

Back when he was abroad, he got into a fight and nearly killed the other guy, then he compensated with a few hundred thousand dollars. Santiago didn't even bat an eye. Now, Santiago slapped Claude just because he had hurt the person he cared most about.

"How dare you! You're not even sorry!"

Seeing another slap about to land, Pearl quickly stepped in. "Claude has indeed gone too far this time, but he has admitted his mistake and made up for it."

Santiago sighed. "You're too forgiving. If it were me, I'd have beaten him to death!"
