Chapter 118
Quincy was flustered as she tried to respond, but I cut in smoothly.
“Morgan, so Quincy really is your daughter.”
“What a pity. It seems the Winslow Family will have to bear the consequences of her actions…“>> Without waiting for a response, I succinctly recounted what Quincy had done and ended the call.
A moment later, Quincy’s phone rang.”
She picked it up with trembling hands, confusion and fear written all over her face.
Morgan’s furious curses echoed through the conference room. “Are you out of your mind? How dare you provoke the daughter of the Beaumont Family! Do you think I’ve lived too long that you’re trying to kill me now?“}
“Quincy, listen carefully. If Ms. Beaumont is displeased with the Winslow Family, our entire family will be begging on the streets!“>
“I don’t care what nonsense you’ve been up to. Kneel down immediately, apologize and even knock your forehead on the floor if she asks you to!”
“If Ms. Beaumont refuses to forgive you and the Winslow Family is ruined because of your stupidity, don’t even think about coming back. I have no daughter like you!”
“You’ve brought disaster upon the entire Winslow Family!“}
Quincy stood frozen, utterly stunned by her father’s wrath.}
The call disconnected, but her hands were still shaking.
She turned to me, horror spreading across her face. “You… you’re from the capital?“}
I pressed my index finger to my lips and shushed.
Quincy was so frightened that she immediately fell to her knees, pressing herself against my feet.}
She no longer cared about what others thought. Instead, she kept begging me desperately.}
“Ms. Beaumont, I am so sorry. Ms. Beaumont, I am sorry, I was wrong!“}
“I was blind. I bullied others, and I am not even human. I deserve to die! Please, Ms. Beaumont, I made a mistake!“}
“I beg you, Ms. Beaumont, forgive me this one time. Please let the Winslow Family go just this time. I will give my life to you. I will do whatever you want!”
Her voice was filled with panic and desperation.}
She did as her father told her and started knocking her forehead against the floor again and again. Soon, her skin split open, leaving red marks that quickly turned into bleeding wounds.
Still, she did not dare to stop. Since I had not said anything yet, she would not have the guts to stop.
“I’m sorry, I was wrong. Please spare the Winslow Family.“}
Behind her, Anne had been hiding, watching everything unfold.
Now, she covered her mouth in horror.
I watched as Quincy continued her act, her forehead already smeared with blood. However, my expression remained indifferent, as if I had seen this kind of scene countless times before.
She started trembling in fear. Overwhelmed, she instinctively reached out, tugging at Leonard’s sleeve twice.
Unfortunately, Leonard was even more shaken than she was.}
Realizing that her apology was not enough, Quincy became even more frantic as she began slapping herself over and over again.
One after another, the crisp sound of each slap echoed beyond the conference room.
Blood quickly seeped from the corners of her mouth, yet she showed no signs of stopping.”
‘I was wrong… Ms. Beaumont, please, let me go. I truly know I was wrong.“”
All the people watching the show were now frozen in shock. Some covered their mouths, horrified by the scene before them. Others were too stunned to utter a single word.”
“Who exactly is Nicole? Even the Winslow Family from Lumeport is terrified of her.“>
