Chapter 137
On their way there, the car was engulfed in heavy silence.
"Today, a lot of people were talking about the matter. Mom's in a bad mood. If you have the time, do comfort
her,” Dexter suddenly said as the car cto a stop.
Nodding slightly, Angela agreed.
Fiona, surprisingly, had arrived before them. She was seated on the couch with a laptop in front of her, clearly
still busy with work.
When Joseph arrived, he called everyone to the dining table for dinner.
That day, Ursula and Cecilia were also there and sat opposite Joseph.
Cecilia, with her playful demeanor and humorous remarks, made Joseph laugh several times heartily, but her
efforts didn't change the cold atmosphere around the table.
“Fiona, oh, wait... | forgot you're no longer a part of the family. Should | address you more formally instead?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Since you and my brother are divorced, isn't it tyou give up the control of the household? After all,
technically speaking, you're no longer part of the Bamford family," Ursula said with a faint smile, her tone calm
and crisp.
Her words left everyone in silence.
Angela didn't know what to say since Ursula wasn't wrong.
"I know," Fiona replied. "I cback today to address this."
After she slowly stood up, she turned to Joseph. “Dad, please allowto call you Dad one last time. | still
respect you deeply, but since Marcus and | are divorced, | can no longer stay here....."”
"No." Joseph spoke up in a cold voice. "The one at fault is Marcus. It has nothing to do with you. He's the one who
should leave this house. You stay here and carry on as usual. Let's see who dares to say a word against it.”
Joseph's stance was genuinely surprising.
Even Angela becdumbfounded, unable to believe how progressive Joseph's thinking was.
Everyone else was equally shocked.
"Dad, this isn't right. No matter what, Marcus is still your biological son. As for her..." Ursula completely lost her
composure.
She couldn't understand what was so special about Fiona that made Joseph care so much.
“Publicly, Fiona manages the PR department and holds 15% of the company's shares. Privately, she has
contributed immensely to this family and is much more reliable than

Marcus. I'd rather lose a rotten son than let Fiona leave this home," Joseph remarked solemnly.
Ursula gritted her teeth. "What about the control of the household..."
Just as she was about to continue, Fiona spoke up. "Dad, Ursula should have control of the household from now
on. Lately, I've been spread too thin to handle everything properly, and that's not good for anyone.” Joseph
didn't object to it.
The atmosphere at the table remained strange from start to finish.
A few days later, Angela felt better and informed Callum that she was returning to work.
The moment she appeared, the entirety of Division One went into an uproar.
"Hey, everyone! Let's welcour hero back!" Alan shouted into a megaphone at the door. "Angela, you're

Over 20 people jostled to surround Angela.
"Alright, alright, that's enough. There's still work to do," Angela said, smiling as she pried Clara off her, only to
realize the latter was crying.
"Jeez! | thought I'd never see you again, Angela. Why did you do that back then? Our lives may be important, but
isn't your life just as important? You don't know how panicked we were. When Finn came, we didn't even want to
leave..."
Clara wiped her tears, whereas the others couldn't maintain their smiles anymore.
