Chapter 889 The Ugliness of the World
“Yes, I heard.” Wynter did not avoid his gaze.
Budd chuckled, but he looked like he was crying. “Dulcie is stronger than anyone else. Whert she was young, she said she wanted to be in the military like me when she grew up.
“When she was in elementary school, whenever her classmates got bullied, she would always stand up for them. How could a child like her be weak?”
Budd clenched his fists. “I don’t even know what happened, but before I knew it my daughter was gone. Should I not seek revenge? All these people, I…
When he was young, he put all his effort into protecting the borders. He was always proud of protecting his people.
When he retired, the country treated him well too. They helped him transition into another career. He was thankful that he had a small family of his own too.
Later, he realized that it was really hard to do things without any connections. He had a changed boss, so he had to work late from time to time. He had no connections, but he also did not know how to socialize.
Budd thought that his colleagues would call him antisocial at most. But not having connections ended up affecting not only him but also his wife and daughter!
Budd hugged his head in pain. “Why didn’t I realize that my daughter was asking me for help? I
I’ve been in the army. I should know that she was suffering. She waited for me all night. She surely must have something she wanted to tell me.
“Yes, I was working late every day. But no matter what, I couldn’t finish work, all because my colleagues had connections and I didn’t, so they thought I was the best person to work late.”
Budd’s cries were filled with hatred. “All these people just because they had connections, they ostracized other colleagues. They made me miss my daughter’s last phone call.
“After her death, they even talked about it online, especially Jone Ashmore and his family. His entire family is evil. Shouldn’t they deserve to die?”
Budd had terrified those who came to apologize with the fruit basket. They finally understood why Budd hated them so much. Chills ran down their spines.
That day, Budd had indeed said he needed to leave because something was happening at home.
They were in a rush to go for a poker game after work, so they continued making him work. They never would have thought that with one missed call, such a serious thing would happen.
“Budd, we’re sorry!” Jone was the first one to step up and apologize. He even brought his daughter, Kate, along. He pressed her down. “Apologize to Mr. Wilson!”
Kate was in her teenage rebellion years. She was not going to apologize in front of so many people.
“Dad, why should I apologize? What does this have to do with me? I wasn’t the only person in school who

disliked Dulcie.”
If it were not for the scary snake, Kate would not have come along. Jone was speechless. Why was his daughter so thickheaded? The fortune teller in his dreams was there too!
“Watch what you’re saying!” Jone panicked.
Kate was indignant. “I’m not saying anything. I just don’t like playing with the poor, okay?”
Jone wanted to slap Kate. Why was she so stupid?
“The poor?” Wynter raised an eyebrow. She went in closer to Kate. “You said that Dulcie is poor?”
