Chapter 105
“Also, what do you mean I did something wrong? By your logic, I should’ve listened to him and changed into sexy underwear in front of him, is that it?”
“Olivia, stop being stubborn at this point, for God’s sake. I will believe that he hit you, but I cannot believe you and Ophelie’s claims that he flirted with you. Gavin is an educated man, and he knows the blood relation between you and him very well, so why would he flirt with you? You’re just spouting nonsense!”
“Educated? Are you saying that Ophelie and I aren’t educated? Fine, since you refuse to believe us, I don’t have anything else to say.” This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
“W-Why are you like this?” Norman’s expression turned dark. “Olivia, he’s your younger brother despite everything. How can you let him die because of something he did without thinking? Please let him off the hook for my sake. Raising you wasn’t easy, and I always bought you the things you wanted. You attended the most prestigious school, and I had to spend a lot of money for you to study overseas. It wasn’t easy for me!”
When Norman finished speaking, even Quincy and Samuel couldn’t bear to watch it anymore. What was Norman saying? Olivia was his daughter, so he was obliged to raise her. How did it turn into a favor for her? How shameless could Norman be?
Olivia felt her heart turn cold, and she no longer had any hope for the Pearsons. Even when things had come to this point, Norman still couldn’t believe that his son was a beast in human skin. What else could she say?
It didn’t matter; she didn’t care about Norman’s thoughts anymore. She had given Thomas the right to decide, so Thomas would have the final say.
Olivia gave her father a meaningful look. Without another word, she turned around and walked toward the bed.
“Olivia, how could you be so cruel? Can’t you just forgive your younger brother? I… I have raised you for nothing! You’re as stubborn and rude as your mother!”
Norman was so furious that he seethed. Olivia refused to let him have his pride even in front of so many people; how was he supposed to face them in the future?
“What did you say, Norman?”
Harrison was mad. “You’d better be honest about it. In what ways was my daughter stubborn and rude?”
Harrison’s daughter was one of the top young ladies in Irieson. She was good-looking and talented, and countless young men vied for her hand! If it weren’t for the Pearsons’ powerful history, she wouldn’t have fancied Norman at all! It was the Pearsons’ utmost honor for Harrison’s daughter to marry into their family!
Now that she was gone, how could Norman slander her like it was nothing?
“What right do you have to talk about my mother?” Olivia’s rage was completely ignited by Norman. “Did my mother mistreat you, or did she get involved with other people outside of the marriage as you did? You only know how to defend your precious son, but do you even understand him? He pretends to be a good boy in front of you, but in reality, he’s a beast! He’s an inhumane beast!”
Years after her mother’s passing, every time Norman was dissatisfied with Olivia, he would talk badly about her mother, but on what account? Just because her mother couldn’t give birth to a son?
“You wretch! You’re not worthy to be part of the Pearsons! You deserve a beating!”
Norman couldn’t suppress the rage in his heart anymore. He didn’t think it was wrong to call Olivia rude because she insulted Gavin like that.
Slap!
A clear slap rang in the air as he slapped Olivia.
The ward fell eerily silent, and everyone could even hear their heartbeats!
Olivia reached up and touched her cheek. This was the third time Norman had slapped her in the past two days. If she counted Ophelie’s, this would be the fourth!
Bang!
Suddenly, a chair came flying before it slammed into Norman’s body.
Everyone was stunned, and when they saw Thomas darting over, they realized that he was the one who did it.
“Go and lie on the bed!” Thomas ordered.
Olivia looked at her father, who was slammed to the floor. He kept groaning, and it was obvious that the attack just now was a huge blow for him.
Olivia turned to glance at Thomas. The man had bloodshot eyes not unlike that of a beast’s. It was terrifying to see.
She subconsciously shuddered, then went back to the bed and lay down.
Thomas grabbed the chair from the floor. With a mighty move, he broke the leg off the chair, then slowly walked toward Norman.
“What are you trying to do?” Terrence hastily stopped Thomas. He knew at a glance that Thomas wouldn’t let Norman off so easily.
“Get lost, you old thing!”
Thomas lifted a leg and kicked him.
Boom!
Thomas was so fast Terrence couldn’t react in time before Thomas delivered a firm kick on his body. There was a searing pain in Terrence’s chest as he flew away and slammed against the wall. When he opened his mouth, blood spilled out of it.
“Damn it!”
Quincy and the others watched all this in wide-eyed bewilderment. Were they seeing things? Terrence was a skilled martial arts fighter, but Thomas sent him flying with just a kick! Thomas was simply too powerful!
Olivia, who was on the bed, covered her tiny mouth with her hands in shock. Her grandfather was a martial arts master, and he was also a renowned figure in Irieson. However, he couldn’t even retaliate in front of Thomas.
Thomas said furiously, “Norman, do you have a death wish?”
He didn’t hold back as he lifted a leg, then kicked Norman’s body.
“Ah!”
Quincy and the others shivered. Thomas was too cruel! He was merciless!
“Give me your hand! The one that hit Olivia just now!”
Thomas had a bellyful of suppressed rage, and when he saw Norman hitting Olivia, he couldn’t hold it in anymore.
He was already pissed when he heard Norman’s words just now. How was Gavin in the right for hitting people? It was as if Olivia and Ophelie deserved to be beaten up. What wrongs had they committed?
The truth was right in Norman’s face, but Norman refused to believe that Gavin had flirted with them!
How biased could Norman be?
Bam!
Crack!
The stick landed heavily on Norman’s right hand, breaking his wrist right away!
The clear sound of bones breaking was like a heavy hammer landing on everyone’s heart.
“Mark my words, Norman. I’ll break Gavin’s legs if that’s the last thing I do! Don’t give me nonsense like this is your family’s business; I’ll be a busybody just this once! Whoever touches Olivia will have to suffer my wrath! Get lost and get out of my sight!”
Thomas glared at Terrence. How could that old thing call himself Olivia’s grandfather? He never said a word or did anything while Olivia endured injustice just now. Had he gone senile or something?
