The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1663

"Save your apology." Erica's tone was icy, "I told you yesterday, I'm not accepting any apologies. Dad, if you're here to make me forgive her, don't waste your time. Go home. Kelly never let me off the hook, I won't let her off either."

"But Erica, Kelly is your sister after all. If her husband's family found out about this..." Calvert' face turned sour at the mention of this.

Erica could see Calvert was holding back his anger.

"Yesterday was my wedding with Larkin, among the guests were not only my husband's family but also many important figures. If this video gets out, Larkin's reputation would be ruined. And you're still thinking about Kelly's husband?" Erica interrupted Calvert' unfinished sentence.

Interrupting her father was a no-go in the Shields family.

Erica had always been obedient, she had always followed these rules.

Looking back now, Calvert, a man who already had a wife, pretended to be single only to deceive naive young women. He continued to mentally torment Erica and her mother.

No, to be precise, Calvert mentally tormented everyone in the Shields family, except his two incompetent sons, Tomas and Jack.

"Erica, who taught you to talk to your father like this?" Calvert was clearly infuriated.

The always clueless Jack chimed in, "You caught her before the video was played, didn’t you? You even punished Kelly. You should be more forgiving, we’re family after all. Why are you being so heartless?"

Tomas didn't seem as agitated, but his tone was filled with discontent, " You knew about Kelly's intentions to harm you a long time ago. You should have spoken up earlier. Now, how many years have passed since this incident? Digging it up again is a scandal for you, for Mr. Carter, for the Shields family, and for Kelly's husband. Isn't this just inviting others to laugh?"

"Don't drag me into this." Larkin, sitting next to Erica, said coldly, "Kelly is the one who screwed up, and you all should be the ones embarrassed."

"Larkin, you can't just..." Jack was even more upset seeing Larkin's cold attitude.

"Jack, who gave you the right to talk to Larkin like that?" Erica asked impatiently, "Did you forget, you never treated me like your sister. I was always the illegitimate child of the Shields family in public. Now you need help, suddenly you admit that I'm your sister and Larkin is supposedly obliged to help you? Look at yourself, are you even worthy?"
