After Ethan stormed off after arguing with Francine, he went to the ward next door where Seraphinawas. Seraphina was still a bit stunned from her stint in the pond, but she was awake now. She justneeded to stay in the hospital for two days of observation.novelbin
Seraphina stopped pacing when Ethan entered the ward, and quickly ran up to him. “How did it go,Daddy? What did Madam Francine say? Did she allow me to see Stefan?” When Seraphina hadbeen admitted after nearly drowning, she cried and complained to Ethan, hoping that her fatherwould help her win Stefan back.
“Why do you want her to say yes? I’ve already fought with them,” Ethan said smugly. He had beenwaiting for this day for a long time, but his hands had been tied because of Seraphina. Now, hecould bask in his victory.
Seraphina’s eyes bulged and she shrieked, “What?! Why would you do that? I asked you to makepeace with them but you-“
Annoyed, Ethan snapped, “Wake up, Seraphina! They never took us seriously. You took such goodcare of Stefan, but what did you get in the end?”
“I did it willingly! I’ll be happy as long as I’m with him, and I don’t need anything in return.”
“Shut up!” Although Ethan doted on his daughter, he was disappointed in her. “You’ve got no guts,but our family isn’t like this. We might not be as strong and powerful as them, but we’re still quiteformidable. But they’ve humiliated us twice because of this marriage, and we’ve become thelaughingstock of the city. I don’t want to be humiliated any longer!” The Murphy family had beenhumble and flattering for a long time so the Hunts would go through with the marriage, but Ethanwas a man with a temper and pride. His hatred towards the Hunt family grew as time passed, andhe yearned to see them fall, i
“You know that Stefan is the only man I love, Daddy. I finally got close to him, but now you’ve ruinedeverything! Do you want to see me kill myself?” Desperate, Seraphina ran to the window andyelled, “Why don’t I just end it all? You’ve got an illegitimate son anyway, and he can join our familyafter I’m dead!”
“Seraphina, love, calm down. Why did you bring him up again? I love you the most, and all myproperty is yours. I’ll get you any man you want, so please come here…” Ethan immediately rushedover to Seraphina and hugged her waist, saying helplessly, “I didn’t want to fight, but Francine saidsome nasty things. I said you were nearly killed by her grandson, but she said you were uselessand must have offended her grandson, which was why you deserved it… How could I let that go?”
“Yes, Madam Francine was right. I did try to push that kid first, but he pushed me into the pondinstead. I was the one at fault, so why would you use that incident to negotiate with MadamFrancine?” Angry, Seraphina stamped her feet
and gritted her teeth, i
“You had almost drowned, I had to demand an explanation from them! They’re just lucky I didn’t killthe brat,” Ethan huffed grumpily. He adored his daughter, so he considered his lack of actiontolerant enough.
