Chapter 394
Obviously, Sophia was afraid to tell the truth. Hylda would probably teach her a
lesson if she knew this happened because she attempted to climb onto
Keegan’s bed. So, Sophia omitted what she had done and said, “What else
could it be? Tonight is Mr. Snyder’s birthday, and everyone went to celebrate his
birthday. Keegan was drunk, so I lent him a hand. Stella was unhappy with it.
So, she rushed over and slapped me across my face!”
Hylda was furious. “Why didn’t you fight back?”
“Someone dragged me. I couldn’t move at all!” Sophia cried and said,” Mom,
you have already obtained the marriage certificate with dad. Why do
I still have to stand for this stupidity? How long will I have to endure it!”
Hylda felt annoyed too. There was a formal wedding when someone else was
getting married, but she had to obtain the marriage certificate
stealthily. Until now, she still had to pretend to be Albert’s secretary when they
attended those banquets every time. Hylda suffered in silence for
over 20 years. Finally, something happened to Rainee, and Albert thought of
getting a divorce. However, the Kane family took a liking to Stella.
Albert’s career stalled, and Stella’s marriage was a great opportunity for him to
achieve success in a short period. Hence, he would surely want to treat Stella
well. Stella refused to allow him to divorce Rainee. So, he immediately gave up
the idea of divorce.
The anticipation and forbearance of Hylda and her children for many years were
outweighed by Stella’s words. If it was not for the youngest son, who had to go
to school last year and relevant procedures were needed, Albert would still be
reluctant to divorce Rainee even if Hylda were to cry out her grievances over
the years in front of him.
Albert was divorced, and Hylda had obtained the marriage certificate now.
However, the current situation was no different from before. She was still
Albert’s secret lover. Whenever Hylda thought about all of this, she felt
“How can you make a slap mark when you fall?” Albert took care of Sophia
carefully and cherished her with his heart. She was well-behaved and sensible
since she was a child. How could Albert see his beloved child being wronged in
this way?
“What happened?” said Albert.
Sophia turned her face away. Her voice was crying and full of grievances. ’ Mom
doesn’t allow me to say it.”
The more she said it that way, the more distressed Albert became. He turned to
ask Hylda angrily, “Why don’t you let her say anything? She got beaten up like
this. What can’t she tell?”
Hylda said with teary eyes, “What can you do even if I tell you? Fight back for
her? Do you have the guts?”
“Why wouldn’t I?” Albert frowned.
Hylda sneered. “Do you have the guts to punish your precious baby girl?”
