Upon hearing that, the entire Quirk family was left dumbfounded. It seemed that everything they had said to him previously was in vain because the young man showed absolutely no signs of regret or change!
The Quirk family members, oblivious to the truth until then, had finally pieced together the puzzle. Immediately, they started voicing their complaints.
Pointing at Lancelot, Eula accused, "You heartless ingrate! Instead of supporting your mother, you're siding with your adulterous father and his mistress. Do you even realize who gave birth to you?" Jake said, "Have you lost all sense of morality? Truly, it would've been better to raise a dog than you!"
"I wholeheartedly agree with what Grandpa said," Sarah sneered. "You're simply not worthy of being part of the Quirk family!"
Lancelot was left utterly speechless, flushed. He could not retort and could only look pleadingly toward his mother.
However, the look in his mother's eyes at that moment startled him.
Greta's expression went blank as she stared straight at him before walking up to him. Without uttering a single word, she slapped him twice. "I don't have a traitorous son!"
For the first time in his life, Lancelot was struck by his mother.
Though Greta was known for her strong character, she never laid a hand on her son. Instead, she always chose to guide him verbally.
Thus, the sudden slap left Lancelot stunned. His eyes instantly reddened as he stared blankly at his mother, uttering, "Mom, you hit me."
Greta had already lost interest in dealing with him. She wasn't a fool. Once she knew that her son had long since understood the whole truth, all of his previous actions took on a completely different interpretation.
Even though her heart ached as if it had been torn apart, she was determined to cut out the rot and never let those who had hurt her triumph again.
"You three have ten minutes to pack up your things and leave the Quirk manor. If I still see you here after ten minutes, don't blame me for having my bodyguards take action," spat Greta.
"Mom!" Lancelot was truly frightened. Is Mom trying to drive me away as well?
"Ten minutes. I always keep my word," Greta coldly stated. Then, she turned to Niel, "I'll notify you to come sign the papers tomorrow. Come alone! I don't want to see anyone else." Naturally, Niel was left speechless.
Tears streamed down Yasmine's face as he attempted to speak, but Greta had already raised her hand. "If you say one more thing to disgust me, I won't hesitate to hit you again. Don't make your exit any more pathetic than it already is!" Having said that, Greta turned around, ready to leave.

"I... Even if I upset you, I'm still your son. I didn't make that big of a mistake, did I?" Lancelot knew that his actions might upset his mother, but he thought he wouldn't be punished along with the other two.
He thought, at most, he'd receive a stern lecture and a few harsh words. He didn't expect his mother would try to chase him away after she hit him.
"It's precisely because you're my son that your betrayal is even more unforgivable." Greta's expression was extremely cold. "I told you, I don't consider you my son anymore. Do you think I'm just saying this out of anger?"
In truth, everyone else also didn't anticipate the resolute manner in which Greta dealt with Lancelot.
Even knowing the entire truth, Isabella was somewhat taken aback.
After all, on the surface, all Lancelot was guilty of was hiding information he knew.
Perhaps it was just as Lionel said, that if those who shared their family bloodline didn't protect their own, there was no reason to keep them around.
All present from the Quirk family were of the younger generation, so naturally, they wouldn't dare to advise Greta.
Even when Greta was about to leave, they helped to stop Lancelot, who wanted to speak to her.
Lancelot was truly at his wit's end, his eyes red. "Don't stop me. Why can't you all bear to see me doing well? I need to clarify things with my mother. She can't just say such things out of anger!"
With a cold tone, Alexander stated, "You've already made your choice."
"The moment you chose to support your father's mistress in opposing your mother, you lost the right to be her son," Isabella stated.
After they finished speaking, everyone swiftly departed.
