George was slightly emotional. "Dad, Angelina’s my daughter. It stands to reason that I won't subdue her like that on purpose. I just think that I’ve left Sera and her brother out there for too long, causing them to be humiliated and looked down on by others contemptuously. I owe this pair of siblings, so all I’m trying to do is make it up to them while I’m still alive."
Old Master Severe sighed. "I’m afraid that your guilty conscience has turned into selfishness and blinded your senses as a result."

When George came out of the study, he took large strides to chase after Angeline just as she was walking out the door.
Anne cried out anxiously behind him, "George, Sera's suffering from heavy bleeding. Should we send her to the hospital?"
George continued striding forward as he replied, "Get D r. Zachary to come over and take a look at her."
Anne was extremely displeased with George's perfunctory reply and complained, "Where are you hurrying to that you don’t even care about our daughter when something this serious has happened t
