Josephine cried and said, "Dad, Big Brother isn't my guardian. You kicked me to Big Brother like a ball and ignored me for so many years. Don't you think this is being too cruel toward me?"
"Josephine, what do you mean? Are you accusing us o f not taking good care of you?" Jack roared.
Josephine was frightened by Jack's fierce aura, so she did not dare to fight with Jack. She shrunk her neck timidly and said, "Dad, that’s not what I mean."
However, Jack's anger hardly disappeared. "Look at you, you used to be so rebellious. You even ruined your innocent body for a man. The reason we handed you over to your brother was that we hoped that he could lead you down the right path.
"Yet, now it seems that this was really the wrong decision. He has raised you into a good for nothing who doesn't want to improve."
This was the most humiliating and hurtful memory in Josephine's life.
Jack spoke without giving a care, causing Josephine's face to turn pale. Her entire body was trembling so badly as if all her scars and scabs were exposed relentlessly, revealing her bloody wounds.
Sera smiled sarcastically after hearing the shocking news. The smile seemed to be saying, ‘Josephine,
what right do you have to laugh at me? You and I are both morally corrupt women.'
As Josephine inadvertently noticed this smile of Sera’s, she suddenly felt as if the world was spinning. For an instant, it seemed like the world had abandoned her.
"I don't want to hear it," Josephine covered her ears and said repeatedly.
"I don't want to hear it." She was like a helpless child who was abandoned by her close relatives. She could only plunge into the wider world.
She ran outside as if mad.
Jack watched Josephine running away, his eyes filled with viciousness and ruthlessness.
Josephine's dependence on Jay was far greater than her dependence on her parents.
He had secretly intended to instigate doubts and suspicion in Josephine and Jay’s relationship. He hoped that after Josephine calmed down, she could comprehend the implications of his words.
The madam had raised Josephine for a while now and felt it to be slightly unbearable to see her in such pain.
