Chapter 181 Conflicts
On the way home, the old woman issued complaint after complaint. She distressed to touch her grandson's face and ask him to see a doctor. She scolded Louis even harder.
"Enough, Mom, can you just stop!"
They had been complaining to each other even when they returned home. Dad and Ferdinand blamed Liz for all the faults, while she got the scolding and was scared that she huddled in a corner, covered her hands and couldn't stop crying and hiccupping.
"You just know crying! How do you have the face to cry? Didn't we buy you toys? Why are you so shameless to rob others?"
Ferdinand felt very unpleasant and thought it was Liz's fault that he was beaten. "I had said that you spoiled her so much. Now I have to pay for her fault."
The old woman didn't care Liz now because her baby grandson was beaten because of her. Additionally, Liz was useless and was not so important in her heart then.
Only Liz's mom really felt sorry and walked over to hug her and air her grievance, "why do you blame on Liz? It is all Nancy's fault. She is so mean to make such a fuss about some toys?"
After saying that, she was slapped by dad, who was irritated and annoyed.
"How dare you slap me?" She covered her face and looked at him in disbelief
The man sneered and said, "It's all because your good daughter."
He left then. He had been losing his temper since he owed gambling debts.
Wan looked at all this coldly, thinking that she had to leave this family as soon as possible.
In an instant, she thought of Shawn --- if... if only she could marry him.
What happened after they left didn't bother Nancy and her family. She sat at on the soft stool with her little hands wrapped up while Neil was gently wiping away the tears on her face.
She had stopped crying, but her eyes were still a little swollen. Her hands didn't feel pain anymore, but her dad and brothers were still very distressed.
"Every time this family brings us misfortune," Louis grumpily scratched his hair and said.
Mr. Brook patted her back and comforted.
"Nancy, darling, I won't let them come to our house again."
"Dad, it doesn't hurt," she hummed softly.
She is shorter than Liz and is not as strong as her. Though she didn't win the fight, she didn't suffer more. Liz was kicked several times by her.
It... It mainly depended on Harley. It revenged her hurt.
Shawn asked her, "Is there anything else that hurts?"
She pointed to her knee pitifully. She wore very thick but she only wore a pair of tight-fitting leggings on her legs. When she was fighting with Liz, her knee hit the wall and it hurt a little.
The leggings were not easy to roll up, so Windy took them off. Her short skirt whose length was below her knees could cover the parts of her body.
Seeing the blue bruise on the fair skin of her knees, the whole family was so angry and they hated that they cannot go to beat those shameless people.
Shawn pursed his lips and his face looked a little colder. He carefully applied medicine to her knees with a cotton swab.
She sat in the arms of Marcus, her thin, white fingers tightly grasping his clothes. Though she buried her face in his arms due to pain, she held back her tears.
"Nancy, it's Ok. There."
