Toph took Renee back to Centrolis and escorted her all the way home. He only bid her farewell at the entrance of
the Thompson residence. He would have liked to stay a bit longer at the Thompsons if he had not needed to attend
a dinner with his parents.
Toph instructed her before leaving, “Renee, don’t disclose anything about Pammy to Uncle Nicholas and Aunt Linda
yet. My brother said we need to handle this matter carefully.”
“Okay, I understand.” Renee lightly bit her lip. She knew this feeling. When Melvin suddenly appeared and claimed
to be her father, it felt like lightning struck her from above. If just the appearance of a biological father was so
shocking, she could only imagine how painful it would be for Pammy to find out that her home for the past 20 years
was not truly her own.
“Alright, hurry back!” Toph smiled, his gaze filled with reluctance. Renee waved to him several times before slowly
entering through the mansion gates.

mouth! Renee was startled, trying to scream, but no sound came out. Frail as she was, she was easily dragged to
the back wall of the villa by that person!
Renee struggled desperately and finally saw the person’s face…
“You…”
“Renee, Daddy is very unhappy with your disobedience!”
Renee felt weak as she trembled with her back against the icy wall.
Melvin’s expression turned wicked, and a cold gleam flashed in his eyes. He grinned, revealing a sinister smile like a
ferocious beast baring its fangs before attacking. “Did you have a good time during your trip to Jangasas?”
Renee’s trembling lips could not utter a single word.
“Aren’t you afraid of facing the consequences of helping outsiders scheme against your father?”
“I… I’m not afraid.” Renee remained silent for a moment before she spoke with her voice trembling. “You’ve done
so many terrible things. If you turn back now, perhaps Uncle Nicholas and Aunt Linda will forgive you out of family
ties. But if you remain stubborn—”
“Shut up!”
Melvin raised his hand suddenly, and Renee let out a startled cry, instinctively protecting her face.
Despite that, his slap did not land on her face.
A cold, sinister smile appeared at the corner of Melvin’s lips. He paused his hand in mid-air for a few seconds
before finally pinching her hard on the inside of her arm!
Tears streamed down Renee’s face uncontrollably as she looked at him in agony. She still had to meet Nicholas and
Linda later. How could she go with her face all bruised? The painful pinch would not be visible to others since she
was wearing a long-sleeved shirt.
“Let me tell you. Don’t think I’m unaware of the things you’ve done!” Melvin warned harshly in her ear, “I’ve
already found a suitable kidney donor for your mother with all the necessary conditions perfectly matched. But
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnow… I don’t intend to give it to her anymore!”
Renee looked up in shock.
“Heh! You thought Toph Hamerton would be your savior?” Melvin sneered. “You little sl*t… You couldn’t be more
wrong!
“A kidney donor is not something you can have just because you want it! Neither the Hamertons nor the Thompsons
can find a suitable match in such a short time!
“And if your wretched mother doesn’t have this kidney, who knows how much longer she can hold on?”
Renee burst into tears, clutching his clothes, and slowly knelt on the stone floor before him.
“Please, I beg you… Please let my mother have the surgery!”
“Aren’t you relying on the Hamertons? Then let the two Hamerton heirs give that wretched woman her surgery!”
“Dad…” Renee struggled to call him that.
She knelt on the ground, crying miserably yet afraid to cry out loudly and alarm the other members of the
Thompsons.
Upon hearing her call him “Dad,” Melvin showed no signs of being moved, but a cold smirk crept onto his lips.
