“Augh! Mom!” As the duster hit her back, Gail screamed in agony.
How revealing it was that she had acted weak, helpless, and innocent in front of
her schoolmates! Now, her true colors showed that she was mean and willful.
Watching everything happen right before him, Sebastian rubbed his temples with
resignation and never interfered with his wife educating their daughter.
Looking at her aunt who had always favored her, Debbie was moved. Her heart
ached when she saw Lucinda disappointed and heart-broken. “Never mind, * she
thought. “Gail has already been punished.“ Seeing Lucinda raise the duster
again, Debbie stepped in and prevented her from going further.
“Aunt, you've already hit Gail. I think she knows what she did wrong now.”
“Debbie, stay out of this. You've pleaded for her so many times since you were
little! Look at her, she never learned!”
Being the principal of a kindergarten, Lucinda was nice and able to control her
temper, although her elder daughter Gail often drove her crazy.
The younger daughter, Sasha Murphy, had behaved better than Gail and even
got along with Debbie.
In the Tea Room
Gail had been sent upstairs to apply some ice on her face. Sebastian went to the
Tea Room, took out a tin of black tea and began to wash the tea leaves.
Sitting next to Lucinda, Debbie took out her phone and sent Carlos a message.
“You let Gail off easily just this once and I'll go to New
York and talk with your grandfather about our divorce.”
Receiving no reply from him, she assumed that Carlos was busy.
All three chatted sparsely until Sebastian received a call and had to leave to
head to his company.
After Sebastian had left, Debbie Looked into the cup and recalled what
Gail had said to her moments ago.
“Aunt, who's my mother? Why did my father refuse to tell me anything about her
even on his deathbed?” she asked lightly. When her father was knocking on
heaven's door, he made sure to marry his daughter to a stranger instead of
letting her search for her mother.
The expression Lucinda wore changed abruptly at the topic. She placed the
teacup on the table with so much force that half of the tea spilled, soaking the tea
board.
