Chapter 96

Chapter 96

Yafe walked in silence, looking indifferent. The opulent mansion before him did nothing to stir hisinterest as he made his way to the grand entrance.

However, his emotions were a raging storm inside. He could not believe that his daughter, the onehe had always dismissed, lived in a place ten times more luxurious than the Stone Mansion. Thetask given to him by Reginald then seemed daunting.

Just then, Calum stepped out from the villa’s gate, confronting the trio with a frosty demeanor. “Holdit right there! How did you get in?”

Yafe was momentarily stunned by Calum’s piercing presence and the deadly intent in his eyes. Hestuttered, “I… I’m here for my daughter, Celena! I… came to bring her home!”

Calum’s eyes narrowed, his imposing demeanor briefly faltering before he doubled down, eyeingYafe with renewed force. He glanced at Sherah and Qemal, who were peering around behind him,and retorted, “Oh? From the Stone family, are you?”

Qemal quickly moved forward, all smiles. “Exactly, I’m Celena’s brother. Where is she? Have hercome out to meet me!”

Sherah followed suit, grinning as she said, “I’m Celena’s mom. Let her out!”

However, Calum’s frosty demeanor grew more aloof, and he shot back sharply, “Sorry, she’s nothere! Go home!”

“What!? She’s not here?? Impossible! Is that little brat avoiding us? Get her out here, now! She’sholed up in this fancy villa and doesn’t even think to invite us to stay! What a little wretch!”

Sherah’s face twisted in anger as she heard the response, her voice rising as she hurled insults atCelena. Then came a sharp slap.

“Enough!”

In an instant, Calum’s hand slapped across Sherah’s cheek, sending her sprawling to the floor. Hiseyes were aflame with a predator’s lethal glare as he fixed her with a hawk-like stare. “You think youcan. wail and whine here and get away with it? I’ll gladly show you the door to hell!” he hissed.

Calum had been itching to put the Stone family in their place, and today, Sherah had practicallybegged for it by crossing him. Tough luck for her! He was not the type to play it composed likeLiam.

Sherah was dazed by the slap, taking precious seconds to grasp what had happened as she sat onthe ground. She scrambled to her feet, cradling her reddened cheek, and scurried behind Yafe infear.

Calum stood there, an unyielding force. Even his fleeting look was enough to send shivers downtheir spines.

“Get out, now! Or if I have to get my hands dirty, I can’t promise you’ll walk out of here breathing,”Calum warned icy.

Yafe stumbled backward, Calum’s fierce gaze throwing him into a panic. He had known it would notbe easy to bring Celena back, but not even to catch a glimpse of her?

When Qemal saw his mother getting struck, fury blazed within him. They had come to see Celena,after all. He lunged at Calum in fury. ‘ How dare you hit my mom? Who do you think you are? You

are just a guard dog! Do you even know who we are? Get Celena out here now! How dare she dareshut out her own parents!”

However, Calum snickered mockingly. In the next second, Calum’s figure blurred as he kickedQemal right in his guts.
