g silently by his side with tears in her eyes.
Molly didn’t say anything. She listened to Lawrence’s accusations and couldn’t argue back.
Abigail looked at Lawrence, and for the first time, she was truly moved by his words.
“Take a good look at her. She is your own granddaughter. Your first granddaughter. She was thrown
into the sea by your own child and has lived for twenty years without parents. How can you bear to let
so many people bully her?” Lawrence’s voice choked as he spoke. “I hate myself for not protecting her
properly back then. I hate that I wasn’t there to guide her when she got married. She has suffered so
much in her marriage without anyone to support her. Even the elder who protected her was so afraid
that no one would help her when they were gone that they taught her to endure hardship in silence. I
often think that if I were by her side, nobody would dare to bully her like this!”
Lawrence’s voice was hoarse.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTears welled up in Abigail’s eyes as she whispered, “Dad…
“Abby, they hurt me so!” Lawrence tightly held Abigail’s hand. “I have dedicated more than twenty years
1/2
to this family, but what did they do in return? One threw my child into the sea, and the other protects a
murderer!”
Molly’s face turned ugly.
One of Lawrence’s uncles couldn’t help but speak. “What do you mean by throwing a child into the
sea?”
Sean listened to Lawrence’s words and felt uneasy.
Abigail’s past experiences were indelible. Even if he made amends now, the damage had been done…
It would always be there.
He knew very well that Lawrence was not blaming himself but blaming him.
As a father, Lawrence believed he had failed… and as Abigail’s ex-husband, Sean also felt like a
failure.
He glanced at Lawrence’s uncle and said in a low voice, “When Abigail was a child, Vincent and
Martha planned to make Lily replace her in order to form a marriage alliance with the Davidson Family.”
As prominent families in Capitalis, both the Davidson Family and the Pearson Family would benefit
from this alliance. This was a widely recognized fact.
“He didn’t do such a thing!” Molly still argued.
“Are you sure? He was already involved in fraud over twenty years ago! Molly, aren’t you afraid of
going to hell when you die? Do you know how many broken families, how many lives, and how much
blood and tears are behind the over 13 billion he defrauded?” Sean’s gaze turned cold.
“Now that Mr. Pearson has brought up these things, let today be a day of reckoning. I. Sean, once
wronged Abigail, causing her three years of an unhappy marriage with me. Even if the Pearsons regret

everyone, his words resolute.
Everyone’s gaze toward Molly changed.
Thinking that Vincent was involved in fraud, they all distanced themselves from him.
“Are you telling the truth?” Another uncle spoke up, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Vincent.
“Do you think I would lie about something like this? If you really care, you can investigate what
happened to me in the Golden Triangle. I personally witnessed him in the underground entertainment
city, where numerous young men and women were lured in and brutally killed by beasts for profit. They
used the lives of others as chips to make money. What if your own children were among those kids?
They died in a foreign land, without even a grave.” Sean said calmly.
