Chapter 24: What Do You Want To Know
"Stop!"
Sullivan picked up the plate on the table and threw it at Patricia's head. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Although Patricia noticed a movement from the corner of her eye, she continued to stride forward without turning around.
She refused to reward their actions with any attention.
Anyway, it wasn't like she would die! With a loud crash, the plate hit Patricia's head and fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.
Taking a look at the shattered remains of the plate on the ground and then at her father, Patricia raised her right hand to cover the back of her injured head.
Then, as if nothing had happened, she continued to walk forward, letting the blood flow along her hair to her clothes.
In a matter of moments, her white clothes were stained red with blood.
"Dad, this bitch always acts like this.Does she think no one will know what shameful things she has done if she keeps silent? You can't let her go today.You have to make her tell us who that man is! If she doesn't want to tell us, just kick her out of our house!"
Seeing that Sullivan was burning with rage, Lyndsy added fuel to the fire.
Although Patricia was facing away from Lyndsy, she knew the exact expression that was on Lyndsy's face at the moment without even looking at her.
As usual, her half-sister was cruel, vicious, and complacent.
Did Lyndsy want to grab this opportunity to drive her out of this house? Well, she would leave as long as her father asked her to! In fact, she had stayed in this house for so many years only because she wanted to stay at the home of her late grandfather.
She wanted to take every opportunity she had to feel close to him. But in recent years, her grandfather's things had been stolen or sold off one by one by the rest of her family.
There was no trace of him left in this house anymore.
And now that the members of the Sampson family didn't want her to stay here anymore, it was meaningless for her to continue living here.
At the thought of this, Patricia suddenly stopped in her tracks.
With her left hand on her forehead and her right hand on the back of her head, she turned around and looked at Sullivan coldly, waiting for the words that he was about to say.
Patricia's hair was a mess, but her stray strands of hair beautifully framed her delicate face.
And the trail of blood flowing down her face and her clothes cast a stark contrast to her white porcelain skin, capable of inspiring anyone to feel sorry for her.
Sullivan, of all people, couldn't resist her pitiful appearance.
When he saw her, a glimmer of amazement flashed through his eyes, and his whole body trembled.
He immediately thought of Giselle, the woman who had been loyal to him for many years.
When she was younger, she had looked just like the woman in front of him now.
Yolanda had been living with Sullivan for many years, so she knew him best.
She could tell what he was thinking at just a glance.
So now, when she saw Sullivan's trembling body, she instantly knew that this damn man must be thinking of Patricia's bitch mother again! She couldn't allow this to go on.
She abruptly stood up, grabbed Sullivan's arm, and pulled him back to his senses.
She said awkwardly, "Sullivan, let's talk about it tomorrow, okay? Look at Patricia's head.It's bleeding"
Before Yolanda could finish her words, Lyndsy said, "Mom, how can you say that? She disappeared for three days and only came back just now.
It won't be easy to find her again once she leaves.
How can we just let her go? What if she disappears again? By then, our family's reputation will be ruined by her, won't it?" had accurately put Sullivan's worries into words.
If Patricia damaged the reputation of the jampson family, he would rather not have a laughter like her! Tell me, what's going on?"
Sullivan asked coldly, pointing at Patricia. The trace of pity he had felt just now had vanished into thin air.He didn't even ask her to bind up the wound, ut cut straight to the question that he wanted the answer to.What do you want to know?"
atricia asked just as coldly, as if she couldn't feel he blood that was slowly dripping down from her forehead.
It was an unnerving sight to see.
dowever, Lyndsy was filled with glee.
All she wanted to do was make Patricia suffer.
The sadder patricia was, the happier she would be! Dad, look, she’s acting like she's innocent.She's always like this!"
she said immediately.
Patricia just cast a cold glance at her with her icy eyes.
But Lyndsy took this opportunity to get closer to her father and hide behind him, pretending to be scared.
"Dad, look, she is glaring at me!"
What Lyndsy said made Sullivan even angrier.
Not only did this shameless woman in front of them not regret anything she had done, but she also dared to stand there so arrogantly.
It seemed that if he did not teach her a good lesson today, she would forget that she was still a member of the Sampson family. "Tell me, who is that man? Is that why Zac divorced you? How much did Zac give you for the divorce? How much money are you hiding from us?"
Sullivan asked a series of questions, but in his eyes, the most important of them were the last two. A sense of bitterness rose in Patricia's heart.
Till the end, her father only cared about money! Her grandfather had been a very good person, so how had his son grown up to be such a despicable man? Thinking of her grandfather, Patricia felt a sharp pain in her heart again.
The two wounds on her head were slowly bleeding out.
On top of that, she was already weak from losing the baby.
She covered both the wounds with her hands and slowly squatted down, letting the blood flow out through her fingers.
Although she didn't like the feeling of being looked down upon, she was really tired now.
All she wanted to do was to have a good rest, but she knew that if she didn't tell them what they wanted to know today, these people would never let her go.
What was more, there was a cold-blooded and ruthless man waiting outside the house to laugh at her! Patricia knew that Zac must be standing outside the door, eavesdropping on this whole exchange.
How interesting.
Everyone was here today! Those who wanted to make fun of her, those who wanted to torture her, those who wanted her to leave, and even those who wanted her to die were all here now! In that case, they should all meet one another.
Thinking of this, Patricia shouted at the door, "I didn't think that the president of the Reynolds Group was the kind of person who likes to eavesdrop on conversations.If news of this gets out, it will surely make the headlines tomorrow!"
Patricia's words shocked Sullivan.
No matter how he behaved at home, he always maintained a good image outside.
Lyndsy was even more afraid.
She didn't want Zac to see her be so rude and unkind.
She subconsciously tidied up her clothes and looked out of the door.
The only one who didn't feel any fear was Yolanda.
"What are you talking about, Patricia? Zac is very busy.How could he have time to come here?"
Seeing that there was no sign of Zac after Patricia called out, Lyndsy regained her composure and became arrogant again.
‘Has he left?’ Patricia wondered.
But all her things were still in his car! And hadn't he come here to laugh at her? Why would he leave without seeing her suffer? "You little bitch.Aren't you ashamed of yourself after all the dirty things you've done? How dare you try to frighten us by using Zac's name? It seems that if I don't teach you a lesson today, you won't remember who you are."
Sullivan thought that Patricia must be lying too, so he began shouting at Patricia again.
