Both Madelyn and Azalea heard Emily’s voice clearly. Especially Madelyn, who stared at Emily with wide eyes after hearing her question. “Emily… this…”
Emily also looked at Madelyn in shock while Callum was speaking in a heavy tone on the other side of the phone.
“Emily, I know that Angel is not sensible and it’s all because Veronica didn’t bring her up properly. Although we can’t turn back time, she’ll be alright if she has proper guidance now and I was hoping that you’ll teach her in the future. After all, she is our daughter and we can’t let her go astray!”
Callum asked Emily to discipline Angel because he regarded her as their child. However, Emily knew that this wasn’t the case, so how could she agree to Callum’s request?
She couldn’t refuse him nor agree to him. After all, it was very irresponsible of her to forgo her responsibilities as a mother.
Emily hesitated for a moment before asking, “What happened to her?”
“I don’t know. I was already furious after seeing the photos she sent to Richard, so I’m not in the mood to go see her. As the daughter of the Floyd family, how could she do such a shameless thing? I’m afraid I’ll lose control of myself after seeing her.”
“Hire someone to take good care of her so that she can recuperate first.”
“Emily, just think about my proposal. No matter how vicious she is, she is still our daughter. Even if everyone in the world abandons her, we can’t do that because we’re her parents.”
Callum spoke sincerely, but Emily didn’t feel anything at all. She hung up and looked at Madelyn. “Didn’t you hear it clearly? She got beaten up because she wanted to hook up with a taken man. Don’t you know that I hate people that don’t have morals?”
Madelyn was angry and she was in disbelief. Is there a misunderstanding? Angel is the eldest daughter of the Floyd family, so why would she be a mistress?”
“How would I know? Why would the Floyd family slander their own family member? Well! I have told you everything I know, so you can decide for yourself.”
“Was Angel beaten in vain? Doesn’t the Floyd family want to stand up for her?”
Emily sneered when she saw how Madelyn continued to protect Angel, “How can they do that? Do you want them to beat Braelynn up? Everyone would know that Angel wanted to steal someone else’s boyfriend that way. How stupid can you be? Do you think they’re as foolish as you?”
Azalea heard the whole thing clearly from the side while she looked at Madelyn and Emily.
Madelyn was not distressed at all when her own daughter was injured, but she was concerned about Angel instead. However, Emily was not the least bit worried about Angel’s injuries. Azalea felt that the entire matter was extremely strange.
Azalea took the time to send Meadow a message after Madelyn left. “Angel was beaten up by Braelynn, who said that she hooked up with Richard. You must be very shocked to hear this, right?”
“It’s really shocking. How did the Floyd family react? Did they find trouble with Braelynn?” Meadow immediately asked.
“Floyd family heard that Angel got beaten because she was trying to seduce with Richard, so they directly ignored this matter. Did Angel get beaten in vain? I thought that Angel was untouchable, but I didn’t expect that she would end up this way. It seems that she’s not that great after all.”
“What’s the matter with the Floyd family? If my daughter was beaten, I would definitely retaliate against them!”
“Yes, but I also found something strange today. My mother simply asked a few rhetorical questions when she saw that I was injured. However, she was extremely concerned about Angel. On the other hand, my aunt didn’t care about Angel at all, but she was so distressed over me. Isn’t this strange?”
Meadow did not answer Azalea’s question. “Azalea, we can discuss your mother and your aunt later. Let’s talk about Angel now. She must be very frustrated since the Floyd family didn’t do anything to help her. Since you know this, you can’t ignore it. You should go to the hospital to see her.”
“How can I go out like this?” Azalea couldn’t go out in public because her entire face was bruised. What would happen to her if she ended up being discovered?
“Just dress up before you go out. Didn’t Angel like Richard? She’s really determined. She would rather be a mistress and be beaten up than give up. Go comfort her and help her come up with some ideas to solve this.”
Meadow’s purpose had always been to let an impostor like Angel marry Richard to get back at the Clark family.
Azalea did not know what she was thinking. “What ideas can I offer? I’ll just annoy her if I go there now. If she’s in a bad mood and gets angry at me or something, wouldn’t I be in trouble?”
“Didn’t Angel want to marry Richard? Tell her that there is only one way to do that. A woman will definitely rely on her child that was conceived out of wedlock to be accepted into the family. Valeria was the same as well. If she can think of ways for her to be pregnant with Richard’s child, she can definitely achieve her goal.”
“Is… is it feasible?” Azalea felt that Meadow’s idea was unrealistic.
“Everything is up to her, isn’t it? If Angel is determined, she’ll definitely be able to sleep with Richard.”
Meanwhile, a Rolls-Royce stopped at the villa’s gate of the Howard family and bodyguards opened the door. Natalie and Archer had arrived.
Hayden brought Lucas out to welcome them. “You’re here! What a rare sight! Please come in!”
Archer shook hands with Hayden with a smile and said, “Sorry I came here abruptly with Natalie today. We want to pick Valeria up and live with her for a few days.”
“I have no objection to that, but you have to ask for Valeria’s opinion.” Hayden invited Archer and Natalie to sit down in the living room. The servants immediately brought tea and Valeria also came down when she heard the sounds.
“Mom and Dad, why are you here?”
“We want to take you home for a few days,” Archer replied.
“Why?” Valeria asked.
“Your mother and I miss you. Why can’t you stay at home for a few days?” Archer laughed.
“I don’t believe you. I don’t want to go back,” Valeria muttered. It would definitely not be as convenient for her if she went home. Hayden and William would listen to her here, but Archer and Natalie would definitely punish her when she returned home. She was more comfortable here compared to living in her parent’s house.
Hayden continued when he saw Valeria’s reluctance, “It’s not that she doesn’t want to go home, but everything has been well prepared here. It’ll be hard for her to live in a foreign place.”
Valeria saw that Hayden was helping her and immediately said, “He’s right. It’s not convenient for me to go home and I like it better here.”
Natalie said, “How can it be inconvenient? Your parents and your brother will be with you. You can do whatever you want, so why don’t you want that?”
Valeria immediately retorted, “Even my parents and brother are not as good as my husband.”
