The crisp sound echoed, and Emily Allen incredulously covered her face.
"Charlotte Thompson, you actually dare to slap me!"
However, hearing these words, Charlotte Thompson sneered and slapped Emily Allen another hard slap.
"What are you? Why shouldn’t I dare to slap you? Emily Allen, you actually dare to touch my daughter!"
Charlotte Thompson’s two slaps were forceful, causing Emily Allen’s face to swell up instantly with two distinct handprints on her skin.
Behind Charlotte Thompson, Cyrus Thompson had already pulled Grace Thompson up, reaching out to pat the dust off Grace Thompson’s clothes.
Grace Thompson’s eyes reddened with grievance, but she still worriedly looked towards Olivia Thompson.
At this moment, Charlotte Thompson stood in front of Ethan Allen.
"Ethan Allen, let go of my daughter."
Ethan Allen, somewhat scared, took a step back and looked at Charlotte Thompson with a stiff neck, "What? Charlotte Thompson, do you really want to hit me too? I’m your biological father!"
"Charlotte Thompson! Your heart is too cruel, isn’t it? You disown your own father, and now you even refuse to let us see the kids?" Mia Stewart stepped forward and pointed at Charlotte Thompson.
However, Charlotte Thompson just gave her a cold glance, and without saying a word, Mia Stewart was so scared that she couldn’t speak. For more chapters visit NoveI(F)ire.net
"Ethan Allen, my patience with you has its limits," said Charlotte Thompson gravely, her voice as cold as the ice water of the harshest winter month.
At that moment, Annie bit Ethan Allen’s hand, freed herself from his grip, and ran straight towards Charlotte Thompson.
Charlotte Thompson immediately embraced Annie, comforting her by patting her head, "Annie, don’t cry, Mommy is here."
"Charlotte Thompson, you’re forcing my hand!" Ethan Allen threatened as he glared at Charlotte Thompson.
Charlotte Thompson said a phrase into her phone, then sneered at Ethan Allen.
"This is the path you’ve chosen, Ethan Allen."
Ethan Allen’s pupils shook violently, and he gritted his teeth, letting out a low growl from his throat: "Charlotte Thompson, I am your biological father!"
"You don’t deserve to be," replied Charlotte Thompson, lifting her gaze.
Just then, Jack Bryant arrived with a group of people, and when he saw Ethan Allen standing in front of Charlotte Thompson, a chill flashed across his eyes.
"Miss Thompson," Jack Bryant spoke respectfully by Charlotte Thompson’s side.
Charlotte Thompson nodded, then, holding Annie who had finally calmed down, she walked over to Grace Thompson.
"Babies, get in the car first and wait for Mommy."
Cyrus Thompson was the first to take Annie’s hand, nodding at Charlotte Thompson.
"Mommy, don’t worry, I’ll take good care of my brother and sister."
"Cyrus, you’re such a good boy," Charlotte Thompson said with relieved approval.
After seeing the children get into the car, the tenderness on Charlotte Thompson’s face disappeared in an instant. She turned, pointing at Ethan Allen in front of her, and spoke solemnly,
"Take them away, and make sure they never show their faces in Druarus again!"
Jack Bryant spoke respectfully, then gestured for the people behind him to apprehend Ethan Allen and the others.
Faced with such a presence, Ethan Allen panicked, his legs trembling as he shouted at Charlotte Thompson in a final struggle, "Charlotte Thompson, you wouldn’t dare!"
"Compared to what you’ve done, there’s nothing I wouldn’t dare to do," Charlotte Thompson answered coldly.
She had generously left him a shred of dignity, but Ethan Allen had only grown more presumptuous.
This time, Charlotte Thompson would not show any more mercy.
Charlotte Thompson couldn’t be bothered to listen to Ethan Allen’s wails anymore; she turned to head back to the car to check on the kids.
However, just then, the apprehended Ryan Richard suddenly shouted out loud.
"Charlotte Thompson, don’t forget! You still have a weakness in my hands!"
