Chapter 762

Neera and Zephyr arrived at the Hansons’ house with Thora.

Obadiah was having his breakfast when he saw the three of them. His face was full of surprise and lost hisappetite.

“Save me, Dad! Get them to let go of me now!”

As soon as Thora saw her father, she complained to him of their behavior: “Look at them! How dare that theykidnap and torture me! Just now, Neera even used a knife to threaten me! She almost killed me! You have to saveme!”

Obadiah saw how wronged she felt and frowned. He then turned to look at Neera.

“Neera… What’s going on?”

He didn’t have the intention of blaming her, he just wanted to make sense of the situation.

Neera brought her back to the house to do exactly that. And she was going to start by explaining what had gonedown.

“Mr. Hanson, I found her at a bar. She was hanging out with a bunch of shady people at the time. Later, she…”

As she winked, she signaled to Zephyr with her eyes.

He then untied Thora with an expressionless face.

The more Obadiah listened, the more his face soured.

In the end, he glared at his daughter with furious eyes, and yelled word by word: “Kneel down in the ancestralhall now!”

Thora suddenly lost her voice again.

She had always been afraid of her father. And now that he was in a rage, she didn’t dare to act up again. So, sheobliged.

Who knew that once she had knelt down, Obadiah walked in with a sullen face.

And there was a cane in his hand!

Thora was petrified. “Dad, what are you doing?”

Obadiah’s face was grim and furious.

“What am I doing? You have the nerve to ask me what am I doing, you shameless thing?!” I’ve taught you theways of medicine since your childhood, and this is how you treat your patients? How could you be so carelessabout their lives! And now you’re hanging out with some sketchy bunch of people? Those people are murderersand arsonists! What good could come from you following them around? If it weren’t for Neera, you would’vegotten into much more trouble! So, today I have to properly teach this ungrateful daughter of mine a lesson infront of all the ancestors!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised the cane, and ruthlessly whacked it onto Thora’s body.

In an instant, the sound of screams filled the halls and everyone’s ears.

Thora screamed and dodged, she was in so much pain that she gritted her teeth hard.

Seeing how she was fidgeting, Obadiah was even more angry.

“You still dare to dodge? Kneel properly!” novelbin

After that, he struck even harder.

Thora couldn’t take the pain anymore. Tears the size of raindrops fell from her eyes as she screamed towards thedoor.

“Mom! Mom! Do you really want to see dad beat me to death? Get him to stop please!”

In the doorway, although Obadiah’s wife, Marie, couldn’t bear to see her daughter get hurt, she didn’t stop himhowever.

It is because she also knew that her daughter had stepped way out of line this time.

As for Neera, she watched on from the side with cold eyes.

Thora deserved every bit of punishment for her actions.

Every whip was too light in her eyes!

In the ancestral hall, Obadiah’s anger increased with every hit.

His hand which was holding the cane was shaking as he used too much force, while he cursed and scolded Thorafuriously.

“You still have the nerve to beg for mercy! You have refused to change your ways and acknowledge your badbehavior despite your repeated admonitions! Are you even worthy of your medical skills? As a practitioner, youhave insulted this profession! You have insulted the many teachings I have given you all these years! If I knewthat you would behave like this, I wouldn’t have let you study medicine in the first place!”

He said as he struck the cane again and again.

Thora’s entire back was gradually stained with blood.

Neera counted about two dozen hits before she walked up to stop her mentor.

“That’s enough, Mr. Hanson. She’ll pass out if you keep going.”

Obadiah was panting heavily. His body was shaking from the anger.

He looked at Thora who was almost passed out on the ground, and threw away the cane. He then snorted andwalked out.

Marie hurriedly called for someone to Thora’s aid.

“Get Ms. Hanson upstairs now and get her some medicine!”

Thora was in immense pain that her body started to twitch.

Before she was dragged away, she glared at Neera with bloodthirsty eyes.

As if she was about to destroy her.

Thora swore to herself in her heart that she would never forget everything that she had to endure today.

One day, she will make Neera pay. She will make her suffer!

Neera noticed her glare and paid no mind to her. She then followed Obadiah to the living room.

Later, she said softly: “I’m sorry that you had to take action yourself in the end, Mr. Hanson…”
