“Conscience? What even is conscience? Tell me!”, Breenda had a strong temper and spoke
straightforwardly, “A person with a conscience will never do such a thing!”
Declan was angry, but couldn’t refute it. He couldn’t find any words to refute it.
“You are Dad’s daughter; you have an obligation.” Declan could only find these words to refute after a
long time.
Breenda laughed sneeringly, “What is my obligation? Is my obligation to protect someone who has no
principles and no conscience?”
Mrs. Bailey slammed a hand on the table, “Look at how you are talking? He is your father!”
Breenda turned her head to look at her mother, “He is my father? Has he ever shown me fatherly love?
Has he ever treated me as a daughter? I have grown up this much without ever feeling fatherly love, let
alone the warmth of family.”
Mrs. Bailey was tongue-tied. Indeed, because their eldest daughter was born, they wanted to have a
son the second time. However, another daughter was born again so she was placed in foster care at
her older brother’s house.
It was easily imaginable that her life could not have been good under someone else’s roof.
“I don’t have the ability to handle this situation. If you are willing to admit that I am your daughter then
admit it. If you are not willing to do so, then act like you didn’t give birth to me. In any case, you didn’t
raise me.” She turned around and left.
As she walked to the door, she stopped for a moment and turned to look at her younger sisters sitting
in the living room, “If you want to take care of this, I won’t stop you. If you want to acknowledge me as
your sister, then do that. If you don’t want to do so, I won’t complain. Call me as your sister when we
meet and we will still be sisters. If you guys are not willing, then we can just be strangers when we
meet, and ignore each other.”
“Breenda…”Eunice Bailey, the fifth daughter of the family, wanted to persuade her.
“There is no need to say anything anymore! Even though we are from the same womb, and it is true
that we are sisters, we cannot interfere with each other’s personal thoughts and behavior. I have
already made myself clear, if you cannot bear to see me, just treat me like a stranger and treat me like
the one if we never know each other.” The Breenda interrupted the Eunice.
After speaking, she continued to walk away, her footsteps straight-forward and decisive.
At this time, Maisy also stood up, “Alan is famous and known by everyone. I won’t say much now. He is
my father and I will not comment on what is right or wrong. Alan will definitely not be meddling in this
matter and I should leave if I can’t be of much help.”
“Maisy, you also don’t care about your dad?” Athena looked at her in disappointment.
Maisy said anxiously in a hurry, “It’s not that I don’t care, it’s that I cannot take care of it. You tell me,
how can I handle this?”
Athena had nothing to say. Everyone knew that Alan was famous in the circle.
After this incident, everyone’s eyes were glued to these people related to the Bailey family and were
paying attention to their every move. If there was even a slight mistake, they were going to be involved
and criticized.
Athena had nothing left to say. However, children raised at home by their own parents naturally had
better feelings for their parents than children raised outside.
She wanted to resolve this matter for the fear that their father was going to go to jail.
“These past few years, I and Alan have never been angry at each other. We also don’t have a son, just
simply have a daughter. He loves and cherishes me and his daughter very much. I won’t do anything to
embarrass him. Mom, I ask you and all the sisters to please forgive me.” Maisy made herself absolutely
clear. She was never going to let her husband get involved for the sake of her father.
“You are a brute! You don’t even care about Dad’s safety!” Declan threw the table angrily.
Several sisters couldn’t help but look at him.
“How can you talk like that?” Daphne Bailey, the forth daughter of the family, was very dissatisfied with
this.
No matter what, they were all born from the same parents and were siblings. How could he curse her?
“Maisy has already made it clear why she cannot intervene; how can you curse her? You are such a
spoiled son, don’t you even have any moral integrity?” Daphne was panting with rage and had already
disliked Declan for a long time. He was the only younger brother who had no respect for his sisters.
If it wasn’t for their father, she wouldn’t have been sitting here.
“All of you stop fighting!” Mrs. Bailey’s chest rose and fell quickly in anger. Although, she knew her
daughter’s reason, she still felt angry. However, thinking about Alan’s identity, she extinguished her
anger and talked nicely to her daughter.
“Maisy! Alan’s identity must be of a little help…”
Maisy interrupted her mother, “You must have heard about the way Alan is, he will not interfere. It will
not be of any use even if I ask him. If you want to see us getting a divorce, then I will go back and
argue with him. I will do as you say.”
Maisy deliberately left the decision with Mrs. Bailey.
As long as she cared about her daughter even a little bit in her heart, she wasn’t going to let her family
break apart.
Mrs. Bailey had no word’s left to say.
Except for the eldest daughter and the youngest son, she had not fulfilled her responsibilities as the
mother for the rest of the daughters. She merely gave birth to them, never shown them love and care.
“Leave, if you want to. Do you think we cannot save him without you?” Declan couldn’t see his mother
embarrassed like that.
Maisy bowed a bit to her mother and said towards her sisters who were staying, “What I did may be
wrong, but please forgive me.”
The sisters were all very reasonable and responded, “Go back. We know it is difficult for you. In fact,
each of our families has its own difficulties. It’s just that no matter what happened, he is our father. We
may have a thousand complaints about him, but we can’t disregard him completely. We will find a way,
don’t worry.”
When her sisters said this, it insinuated that she did not care about her family. However, she still did not
regret her decision.
She turned around and walked out of the house feeling indescribable.
She hated what her father did, but as his daughter she was not in a position to criticize him.
She returned home by car and composed her mood before entering the house. She didn’t want to bring
the negative emotions home because of her father.
Alan was still not home from work. The only person present in the house was their daughter. Maisy
asked her, “How come only you are here, where is Charles?”
“I don’t know. He went out after receiving an express parcel. I don’t know where he went.” Tiana said.
She wrote the last word of calligraphy, put down the pen and looked up at Maisy’s face only to find that
her complexion did not look good. She asked, “What is wrong, Mom?”
Maisy shook her head hurriedly, “Nothing. I will go lie down in the bedroom for a while.” Quickly, she
thought about another matter, “Tiana, when are you guys going back to the White City?”
She didn’t want her daughter to stay here at all because she felt like this place was not suitable for
living.
Bad things always happened here.
Tiana said, “Wait, Charles still has some matters to attend to. It will still take a few days before we can
go back.”
Last time Charles went to Matthew with the intention of cooperating with him, but Matthew had avoided
him and hadn’t met with him.
Even if he couldn’t cooperate with Matthew, he couldn’t just quit otherwise people were going to treat
him as a bully. Up until now, Tom had not been discharged. Although it wasn’t life-threatening, but the
injury was serious. How could he not get revenge for his own people?
He hadn’t been idle these days. While sending people to investigate Declan, he exploited his
relationship with Alan to get a few people with status connected.
He was going to find an opportunity to retaliate against Declan. However, at this moment he received a
courier.
