George was slightly emotional. "Dad, Angelina's my daughter. It stands to reason that I won't subdue her like that on purpose. I just think that I've left Sera and her brother out there for too long, causing them to be humiliated and looked down on by others contemptuously. I owe this pair of siblings, so all I'm trying to do is make it up to them while I'm still alive."

Old Master Severe sighed. "I'm afraid that your guilty conscience has turned into selfishness and blinded your senses as a result."

George said, "I'll be more than happy if Angelina can get along with Sera and her brother, but as you've seen, Angeline is spoiled and arrogant. She's rude and unreasonable to her stepmother, and that was why I said a few harsh words to her in a fit of pique. She actually took my words seriously and planned to run away from home."

Old Master Severe glared at George with his bright falcon eyes. "Angeline has never suffered any grievances since childhood. I'm sure you know who was the one who indulged her bad temper. If you have anything to say about Angelina's bad temper, then you're clearly questioning Master Ares' authority. Do you know that?"

George looked slightly dumbfounded.

He was only trying to educate his own daughter. What

did Master Ares have got anything to do with this?

Old Master Severe leaned forward with an extremely solemn expression. "I'm warning you, George, you can punish anyone in this family but not Angeline."

George was stumped after hearing what Old Master Severe said.

Speaking of nobility, out of all the members in this house, Angeline s children were of the Ares family's bloodline. Logically speaking, they would be way nobler than her.

Though Old Master Severe was clearly implying that Angeline was the most precious person.

George wanted to ask the reason, but Old Master Severe merely threw him the hint and that was it. He waved at him. "Get out."

When George came out of the study, he took large strides to chase after Angeline just as she was walking out the door.

Anne cried out anxiously behind him, "George, Sera's suffering from heavy bleeding. Should we send her to the hospital?"

George continued striding forward as he replied, "Get Dr. Zachary to come over and take a look at her."

Anne was extremely displeased with George's perfunctory reply and complained, "Where are you hurrying to that you don't even care about our daughter when something this serious has happened t

o her?"

Angeline dragged her suitcase and waited for a cab at the main entrance.

Lady Severe could not stop wiping her tears away as she stood on one side.

Shirley tried her best to persuade her to stay. "Your mother needs you, Angeline. Must you leave her just because you're mad at them?"

At this moment, George hastened outside and cried aloud, "Angel, you'll stay if you acknowledge me as your father."

Angeline looked at George in stupefaction as doubt emanated from her eyes.

What exactly did Grandpa tell Dad that he had pacified Dad's rage so quickly that he seemed to fear and revere her?

George said in an exceedingly sincere manner, "Angel, are you only willing to stay after I go down on my knees?" Having said that, George was about to get down on his knees.

Angeline took George's hands, tears welled up in her eyes. "I'm sorry for being a bad daughter and for making you mad, Dad."

She might have a bad temper, but she was rather filial. How could she possibly have the heart to drive her father to the edge and make him go down on his knees?

"I'll go back with you," she murmured.

Angeline then followed George back to the Severe residence. Thinking that Angeline was gone, Anne rejoiced inwardly thinking that she would be the owner of the house from now on and was so proud of herself that she began singing opera songs.

Though when she turned around and saw George bringing Angeline and her children back, the smile on Anne's face froze. "Well, well, why are you back again?"

Baby Zetty rolled her eyes at her. "You're an old witch."

Anne was furious. "Who taught you that?"

Baby Zetty placed her hands on her hips. "No one taught me. I read it in the book. You're Snow White's vicious stepmother."

"Baby Zetty," Angeline chided Baby Zetty softly.
