NovelEnglishNews about Enoch getting beaten up and dumped in the washroom spread like wildfire through the small town of Craneville.
The very next morning, an auclip of Enoch bad-mouthing Brittany leaked online.
Yuri was shocked. Enoch, who always appeared as gentle as a lamb, turned out to be a snake in the grass. He immediately cut ties
with the Anderson family.
Furious, the Andersons confronted Enoch, giving him a beating so severe he nearly ended up on his deathbed.
"Dad, | can't take this anymore," Enoch whimpered, bloodied and sprawled on the ground.
Rafferty, with a face like thunder, kicked him in the chest, "Do you have any idea how much effort | put into getting the Lte
family to even glance your way? And you, you just had to ruin it, tearing down years of friendship between our families!"
Enoch, stubborn as ever, retorted, "Brittany is just damaged goods—"
"Damaged goods? Do you know how many people would kill to be with Brittany?"
Rafferty was livid, "The entire Lte fortune is at her disposal, and after her previous marriage, she's the sole owner of all that
wealth. Do you have any idea what she's worth?"
Enoch paled, "But, the Ltes have a son—"

He thought he could get away with his backbiting because, after all, Brittany was just a daughter, unlikely to inherit the family
fortune in his eyes.
"Are you an idiot? Brittany's capabilities are well recognized. Do you think Yuri's will was a joke?"
Rafferty grew angrier by the second, "Look at the mess you've made. The Ltes never cared for you, and now you've lost all
face."
Regret twisted in Enoch's gut.
"Dad, | can apologize."
He thought an apology might fix things, unaware that the Ltes wouldn't give him the tof day!
"After you heal, you're off to the branch office."
Rafferty, fearing Yuri's revenge, immediately distanced himself from Enoch, "And stay out of Craneville unless given permission."
Enoch tried to protest but passed out from the pain.
Enoch's beating had Ysabel clapping with glee.
"Well done!"
"Found in a washroom, of all places! That man got what he deserved!"
On the surface, a gentleman.
Behind closed doors, a monster.
"A man like that is better off dead."
"Did you do it?" Ysabel asked Brittany.
Brittany had no clue about Enoch's whereabouts, let alone raising a hand against him: "No."
"Then it must be someone who's smitten with you."
Brittany chuckled, "Or maybe he crossed the wrong person."
Unable to pay his medical bills, Enoch was kicked out of the hospital that night.

Yuri also offered Brittany a private apology.
"Dad, this isn't your fault."
Brittany knew Yuri was just looking out for her. They never expected Enoch to be so two-faced.
Yuri sighed, "lI won't bring up matchmaking again."
The mother and son duo caught everyone's eye, brushing off advances from three men.
Pouring Daniel a glass of juice, Brittany reassured, "Here, honey, have sjuice."
Daniel, with a worried frown, asked, "Mom, would you like those men?"
With Daddy gone and Mom so lovely, he feared she might be taken away.
The thought alone troubled Daniel; he couldn't bear the idea of another man being with his mom.
"Of course not," Brittany said, tickling his nose, "Mom's not looking for a boyfriend right now."
"Can you wait for Daddy then?" Daniel looked up with hopeful eyes.
