The unbearable events of that night surged back like a flood, drowning Tatiana in almost breathlessagony.

"Ms. Tatiana, you're a scion of the Taylor family. All of Belbanks knows about the decades-longfriendship between your family and the Schmidt family. David forced you? I doubt he would havedared."

Simon turned the ward into a courtroom, forgetting how he had been reduced to a pathetic state."You two were alone together in the room, and when the scandal broke, you Taylors joined forces toshift the blame onto the Schmidt family.

"You knew you were tainted, making it difficult for you to replace a partner in high society in the future.So, you decided to stoop down and use Sean as your lifeline, taking advantage of him.

"Ha! Ms. Tatiana, you're really something. I guess you're not inferior to Ms. Alyssa.”

"You beast!" Sean lost all rationality. His eyes turned bloodshot as he struck Simon's face with hisfists. The punch contorted Simon's features in an instant.

The Lynch couple cried out in shock, "Sean! Stop it!"

"Ugh!" Simon saw stars. His head, already diagnosed with a concussion, began to throb intensely.The next moment, he felt blood gushing out of his mouth. When he spat on the ground, he heard aclick.

A tooth had fallen out.

It was evident how much force Sean had put into that punch, as if he wanted to kill Simon.Shocked, Tatiana covered her mouth with both hands. She knew that Sean had been completelyconsumed by anger. Although he was doing this for her, continuing like this would only lead toeven bigger trouble.

Just as Sean was about to strike again, Sinead suddenly rushed forward and grabbed his arm. Shecried out hysterically, "How dare you raise your hand against your own brother! You've gone insanefor this woman!

"Hit me! Just hit me and get it over with! You won't need me as your mother anymore anyway!"Sean panted heavily, tears of anger and resentment flooding his bloodshot eyes.

Why was it so hard for him to love someone?

Why did they have to look down on such a good woman like Tatiana and hurt her time and timeagain?

"You guys are really too much! How can you bully a young girl together? When did the Lynchfamily's ethics decline to this point?"

Amidst the tense atmosphere, a voice filled with anger cut through.

Holding his face, Simon cast a cold glance over. Sinead also stopped crying.

The sharp sound of footsteps shattered the awkward silence as Steven strode in, his face like frost."Steven..." Sean murmured as he looked at Steven.

Steven glanced meaningfully at Sean, then at Tatiana, who looked pale and pitiful. He felt bad andguilty.

In fact, he had been standing outside the door for a while. He was aware of everything happening inthe ward.

"Mom, how long are you going to remain so ignorant?"

Steven shook his head, his eyes filled with coldness. "If your idea of doing what's best for your childis to tear apart his happiness with your own hands and hurt the one he loves, then your love is trulydisappointing!"
