Chapter 564

“Stop… Please stop-” Terence wanted to stop them, but his chest hurt so

badly that he could only clutch it tightly.

“Old Mr. Quillen!” Alfred was rushing to get him medicine, and he didn’t have

time to intervene in the fight.

On the other hand, Sarah did not venture to step in and was content to yell

“Stop” from the sidelines.

When Samantha raised her hand again, she felt a strong grip on her wrist

and yelled, “Who is it?!” She assumed it was Sarah and was prepared to beat

up whoever was obstructing her, but when she turned her head, she was

stunned.

Then, Mackenzie slowly released Samantha’s wrist and coldly ordered, “Stop

it!”

As soon as she realized what she was doing, Samantha stopped but couldn’t

help mumbling, “How dare you lay a hand on me? You’re simply

embarrassing yourself!”

Due to their family hierarchy, no one from the Quillen family rushed to assist

Felicity in getting back on her feet. The fight left her hair disheveled, her face

puffy and red, and blood seeping from the corners of her lips. Beatrix could

not help but feel heartbroken at her mother’s pitiful and miserable

appearance. Although she didn’t stand on her mother’s side, Felicity was still

her mother!

When Beatrix rushed over to her mother to help her get to her feet, Sarah

raced past her and pushed her aside. Then, Sarah uttered coldly, “Stop

pretending to be nice!”

Beatrix was taken aback upon hearing this.

“Let’s go, Mom. This family doesn’t seem to welcome us anymore!” Sarah

pulled Felicity up and lamented in an aggrieved tone.

“All of you, remember this day!” With bloodshot eyes, Felicity trembled as she

screamed at the top of her lungs, “The entire Quillen family is at fault for

bullying me! You are the ones who forced me to a dead one! I swear that I

will ruin all of your reputations! I want you to suffer and become miserable!”

“s–Shut up!” After taking his medication, Terence roared as his face turned an

unnatural shade of red.

“Dad!” Samantha hurriedly approached him in a state of apprehension.

However, Terence smacked her across the face and chided her, “Do you even

have manners? How could you do that earlier? Have you forgotten who you

are? Should you solve problems by resorting to violence? What happened to

your upbringing? Has anyone ever taught you to fight with your own family?”

Once again, the entire hall was enveloped in silence.

Samantha was a filial child, so she sat through her father’s scolding without

saying anything, like a child who had done something wrong, all for the sake

of her father’s health!

However, Terence angrily scolded again, “You, move it!”

Then, she quickly moved aside upon hearing this.

On the other hand, Mackenzie understood why her grandfather was so

furious. The conflicts between Felicity and the Quillen family were already

intense and irreconcilable. If Samantha were to escalate this matter, it would

undoubtedly bring disaster to the family! After all, no matter how much

Felicity favored her own family, she was still the daughter–in–law of the

Quillen family.

“Are you alright, Felicity?” Terence had a firm attitude toward Felicity in the

morning, but he had not intended to provoke a direct conflict. Since things

had reached this point, he needed to replace a way to appease Felicity.

“Hmph, stop pretending to be nice!” As expected, Felicity didn’t appreciate it

“I’m leaving the Quillen residence right now, and I will reclaim what rightfully

belongs to me! By any means necessary!!” She took advantage of her

righteous indignation by articulating her feelings clearly and then leaving the

hall accompanied by Sarah.

“Shall we stop them, Old Mr. Quillen?” Alfred was also concerned about the

seriousness of the situation, as he understood the importance of maintaining

family harmony.

“Let them go. I’m afraid we can’t keep them here anymore,” Terence

responded, resigning himself to the situation. Since Felicity and Samantha

had just had a major fight, he reasoned that it would be best if they didn’t see

each other for a while to avoid a resumption of hostilities. Another reason

was that he was apprehensive about Mackenzie and Sarah meeting

face–to–face. He knew she would still harbor resentment toward her sister

despite Mackenzie’s outward tolerant attitude, and this animosity would

eventually boil over.

In the meantime, Mackenzie gradually clenched her delicate hands as she

watched Sarah’s departing figure. She had no choice but to put on an act of

faith in Emmanuel in front of Sarah; otherwise, she would fall into her sister’s

trap. However, even after Sarah left, she could not help but feel a cloud of

uncertainty in her heart.
