Chapter 113
Avril's father, Daken Smith, tugged at her arms. “That's enough, Avril. Let's go home.”
“People must own up to our mistakes. That's how people better themselves. You taughtthat ever since | was
a little girl, Dad. Does that apply to kids only and not adults? How's that fair?”
Dalem had no good comebacks to that.
“How's it acceptable to disown one of your family members because they wanted to preserve their reputation?”
Avril said as she swept her gaze across the Shepards. She shook her head and chuckled when she knew no one
dared to retort.
“Bonnie’s highly intelligent. It looks like the Shepards are cold and heartless, after all. | guess it's good she
severed her ties with you all.” With that, Avril got into her car and ordered her chauffeur, Go after Bonnie.”
“Avril!” Daken yelled and chased after her.

The engagement party was such a mess that the Shepards and the Rhodes felt discouraged to keep it going.
Harold stepped onto the stage with his cane and addressed everyone, “Please accept my sincere apologies.
Bonnie behaved poorly and brought shto the family. She was the black sheep of our family.
“I'm not in the mood to say anything more about her. After all, she’s no longer one of us. As for the earlier video,
the truth is, we knew Trina and Hadwin were an item long ago. We and the Rhodes love how they found each
other and give our full support to them.
“If Hadwin hadn't called off the wedding with Bonnie, we would've done the sthing and married him to Trina
anyway. That wretched Bonnie pulled a wicked one over Trina to take revenge on her.
“I can’t believe she hired people to tail Trina, recorded that video, and showed it here. Bonnie's actions could
ruin Trina’s reputation and bury her future. My family won't tolerate such a vile human being in our ranks.
“With that in mind, | implore everyone to avoid thinking of her as one of the Shepards and hold us accountable
for her hideous actions in the future.”
“You did the right thing, Harold. You can’t trust someone who puts an entire family to shame. We would've done
the sif we were in your shoes.”
“What a shame, though. Bonnie is Pyralis’s Best Scholar and had connections to Master Orson.”
“I guess winning the Best Scholar Award is an impressive feat, but her character tellsshe won't amount to
anything once she’s out in the real world. As for Master Orson, | was stunned as to how someone like her got to
know such a prestigious figure. | finally realized that she had used her sugar daddy’s connections.”
“you have an excellent point! That explains so much. Master Orson must've attended Harold's birthday party
because Bonnie's sugar daddy pulled sstrings. ”
The more everyone demoaned Bonnie, the grimmer Vera's expression became. After all, she was Bonnie's birth
mother, no matter how worthless Vera thought her daughter was,
How bumiliating! Bonnie's one of the biggest mistakes I've ever made in my entire life!!
Simultaneoushy, Vera understood something else.

“That explains why Bonnie had lunch with the professors at Ms. Bonita’s research institute. Her sugar daddy
must've used his connections to pull that stunt, Forget it. Ill stop wasting tthinking about ber.
What matters is that Bonnie is no longer one of the Shepards. Ill just pretend | gave birth to Trina instead.
Meanwhile, Avril finally caught up to Bonnie on the freeway,
“How are you holding up, Bonnie?” Avril held Bonnie's hands and asked with concern while Daken stood to the
side, smoking a cigarette.
Bonnie could tell Avril’s concern was genuine. It was heartwarming to know that Avril cared so much about her.
“Don’t worry about it, | got used to it long ago,”
“They're a bunch of heartless bastards! It's good that you cut ties with them,” Avril growled, “Do you have a
place to stay? Perhaps you should cto my place. I'm sure my parents will agree.”
Bonnie looked at Daken while Avril asked pitifully, “You'll agree to it. Won't you, Dad?”
Daken exhaled a cloud of smoke and smiled before walking over.
