Chapter 935: You Sacrificed the Grant Family’s Reputation to Defend That Man
His beloved daughter, cherished since childhood, is now subjected to criticism and scorn for a man, yet she refuses to utter a word, silently enduring it all!How could he not be angry? Angry at himself for raising such a forbearing daughter! For raising a daughter who, for a man, would willingly sacrifice to this extent!!
Romeo Grant was so angry that he clutched his chest, gasping, his face growing paler.
"Old Grant! Old Grant! Calm down! Don’t get so worked up! Your heart is not well; you mustn’t get angry! I’m begging you, don’t be angry!" Sophie Brown’s face turned pale with fear as she stood beside him.
Daisy Grant rushed forward to help Romeo Grant calm down, her voice hurried and fearful: "Dad, please don’t be angry; it’s all my fault. I’m the one who brought disgrace upon the Grant family. Dad... I’m sorry, please don’t be angry, okay?" Daisy’s eyes reddened with urgency.
Romeo Grant’s complexion was dreadful, turning cyanotic, his trembling fingers grasping Daisy’s hand as he asked sharply: "Tell me, who is the man? Who are you protecting with such fervor? Do you know you’ve sacrificed the Grant family’s reputation to defend that man?! Do you even realize what you’re doing, Daisy Grant?! You protect him so fiercely—does he even know? Has he taken responsibility for you?! He isn’t a real man, not holding up to his obligations!!"
Daisy’s face turned deathly pale, biting her lip, her voice trembling: "Dad, it’s not like that; he doesn’t know. I...it’s my own decision."
"Daisy Grant! After all these years of nurturing and care, is this your gratitude, using your education just to climb into a man’s bed?!" Romeo Grant questioned angrily, his voice sharp.
Daisy’s body trembled slightly but remained silent.
Romeo Grant was heartbroken at her perseverance, his rage reaching its peak, losing all reason, he raised his hand and slapped Daisy.
Smack—!
The resounding slap caused Daisy to stagger back a few steps before regaining her balance.
As Romeo Grant slapped down, his gaze flickered, his fingers trembling slightly, turning pale, a trace of regret and self-reproach in his eyes.
"Romeo Grant! This is your own daughter! She’s your only child! No matter how grave her mistakes, even if she really resorts to underhanded means to seize others’ happiness, others can scorn her, curse her, but you are her father! Must you beat her to death just to save the Grant family’s reputation?!" Sophie Brown shouted at Romeo Grant, supporting Daisy’s trembling body, feeling immense heartache.
This is her precious daughter, now scorned by everyone, and she feels the deepest of pain!
Romeo Grant’s hand that had slapped Daisy tightened convulsively, unable to stop trembling, as he looked at his daughter’s swollen cheek, speaking coldly: "Daisy Grant, I hope you won’t regret your choices now. Also, I hope your sacrifices will awaken that man’s conscience, to treat you well. Otherwise, you’ll spend your entire life under everyone’s condemnation! Including the child in your womb, who will only be scorned by all! You’ll never be able to live with your head held high!"
Daisy tightly clenched her hands at her sides, lowering her head as she wiped away her tears, choking: "Dad, Mom, I’m sorry...for making you bear the burden of blame alongside me. I will minimize the harm I’ve caused you! I will ensure the Grant Clan survives!"
Just as Romeo Grant was about to say something, a voice suddenly sounded at the ward door, filled with cold sarcasm.
"Well, educating your daughter, huh? Seems like Aidan and I picked the wrong time to visit!"
Daisy and Romeo Grant, along with Sophie, turned their gaze toward the ward door.
Selah Sutton and Aidan Sutherland walked in.
