"Dad!" Zachary staggered back in disbelief, unable to accept that his father was really going to harm him.
"Which hand of yours touched Arabella?"
Zachary's voice trembled as he watched his father approaching step by step, "Dad, I won't do it again."
"I asked which hand touched Arabella!"
"Dad!" Zachary trembled in fear, tears streaming down his face.
Soon after, a scream echoed from the garden.
Romeo covered Arabella's eyes, speaking softly, "Don't look."
The sight was too bloody.
Arabella moved his hand away, seeing Zachary's hand bleeding.
Although the tendon was not cut, a long scar was left on his arm. Ordinary doctors probably couldn't help; he might be scarred for life.
"Mr. McMillian, are you satisfied with this outcome?" Mr. Panter asked after the punishment, not checking his son's condition first but instead bending over to ask Romeo.
Seeing his humble demeanor, Romeo's voice remained cold, "You're asking the wrong person."
Mr. Panter turned to Arabella quickly, "Ms. Bella, is this acceptable? Can you spare us? I will continue to discipline this unfilial son when we get home!"
"Hmm." Arabella responded indifferently, "You can go now."
Mr. Panter bowed his head immediately, "Thank you, Ms. Bella, we'll leave now and won't bother you again."
Yolanda pretended to help Zachary up but was pushed away by Mrs. Panter before she could touch him, "You bitch, it's all your fault!"
Yolanda was taken aback, "Auntie."
"If it wasn't for you stirring things up, why would Zachary go after Arabella, trying to stand up for your family?"
Mrs. Panter and her husband helped their son up, clearly despising Yolanda!
