Chapter 107
Cheryl stood in place without saying a word like she had been wronged. Then, she said sullenly, “So what? Am I not telling the truth? In any case, I’m not apologizing!”
Reginald was already furious for having to bring Celena back and being unable to do anything to her. Cheryl’s insolent behavior at that moment completely pushed him off the edge. He could no longer contain his anger.
He threw his walking stick at Cheryl and bellowed, “What’s the
matter? Am I too old to be giving you orders? You kept mentioning knowing one’s place. Then, you should know that you’re not the only granddaughter in this family! If you’re so ungrateful, then get out of the Stone family!”
Cheryl was hit in the forehead by the walking stick that was thrown at her. Her head swelled up instantly! She held her forehead in pain while tears welled up in her widened eyes.
Sherah was terrified by that sight. Once she came to her senses, sh quickly rushed to Cheryl. With a forced smile, she said to Reginald, Don’t be angry, Mr. Stone! I’ll talk to her…”
။
Then, Sherah checked on Cheryl’s forehead and felt sorry for her.
After the two of them whispered something to each other, Cheryl stood next to Sherah and apologized to Jovie, who was in Celena’s arms. “Jovie, I’m sorry!”
However, Jovie completely ignored her. She threw herself into
Celena’s embrace and shouted with grievance, “You’re a bad woman! I don’t want your apology! You’re an evil woman who keeps bullying me!

By then, Cheryl had already calmed down. However, what Jovie said in her childish voice made Cheryl’s expression darken. Just as Cheryl was going to lash out at Jovie, Sherah stopped her.
The butler had already picked up the walking stick and respectfully handed it back to Reginald.
Reginald grabbed his walking stick, looked toward Celena and Liam, and asked solemnly, “There, are you satisfied?”
What Reginald said stunned the Stone family members.
Liam, on the other hand, nodded without any expressions. He led Celena back to their seats.
At that moment, a man wearing a silver suit suddenly walked in through the door. His assistant, who followed him in, was holding a gift box.
That was the heir of the Abbott family, Wasyl!
Wasyl strode in and said with a smile, “Mr. Stone, everyone, my apologies. Something happened on my way here, causing me to be late! Sorry to keep you waiting!”
Having said that, he signaled for his assistant to hand over the
box.
Reginald grinned as he got his butler to accept it. His gloomy
expression instantly turned into a cheerful one. With a friendly smile he said, “That’s alright. It is the Stone family’s honor that you could come, Mr. Abbott!”
The rest of the Stones also echoed his sentiments.
Seeing that Wasyl had arrived, Cheryl said softly with a shỳ expression, “Mr. Abbott…”
“Cheryl, what happened to your face?” Wasyl asked with shock when

he saw Cheryl’s swollen forehead.
Before Cheryl could reply, Sherah smiled and said, “Look at my future son-in-law being so concerned! It’s nothing. Cheryl just accidentally bumped her head on something.”
“Oh, Wasyl, my dear son-in-law, don’t just stand there. Come here. Sit next to Cheryl,” Yafe said cheerily. He was very happy with Wasyl. He was already calling Wasyl his son-in-law instead of his future son-in-
law.
Wasyl sat beside Cheryl while smiling, then looked at Yafe proudly and said, “Mr. Yafe, did you know that something huge happened in Drunham City?”
“Oh? Something huge? What is it?”
