Chapter 898
Old Mister Hart understood their intentions and turned to Valencia and Orion. ’’Orion, Valencia, what do you think?'
Orion sighed. "Young people have their ideas, and as elders, we should respect their choices. How to handle this
matter can only be determined by the parties involved."
Although Orion's words sounded eloquent, his attitude made it clear that he wanted no part in this and that he did
not wish to interfere.
There was nothing wrong with his actions, but the fact that he was not willing to defend his daughter-in-law sent
chills down everyone's spine.
Isabella's father sneered inwardly. If it had been Lincoln who had suffered instead of Isabella, Orion, and Valencia
would have hysterically demanded that the culprit be punished instead of remaining out of the way to prevent all

Isabella's father looked at Tyler. "Tyler, it's not that I, as your great uncle, don't respect you, but your wife has
indeed gone too far in today's matter. We're all family here, and the old mister is here with us now, so I won't beat
around the bush. Let's consider the contract we discussed last time. You can give up an additional five percent, and
well let this matter rest. Otherwise..." He gave Vicky a cold glance." There are national laws and family rules. Our
Hart family's rule is that we cannot harm each other or resort to violence
among kin. Those who violate it...will face family discipline. Since she's your wife, she's a member of the Hart family
and will have to face our family's discipline."
Tyler's mother added, "Tyler, you experienced the family discipline firsthand before. Not only did you have to kneel
in the prayer hall for a day and a night, but you also received a caning. Your wife is so delicate; she probably won't
be able to endure it... It'll be horrible if she suffers any long-term damage to her body. You can make money again,
but one's health cannot be compromised."
Vicky's heart sank and thought to herself, 'So the Hart family had such rules? Was that what Tyler endured by
hurting Lincoln apart from being tortured by Valencia?'
Before Tyler could speak, Vicky spoke up, "I am willing to accept the punishment."
"Vicky." Tyler's gaze darkened slightly. "Let me handle this matter."
"Each person is responsible for their actions. Even if I am Tyler's wife, it is up to me to decide whether I want to
accept the punishment or agree to the compensation." She turned to Old Mister Hart. "Old Mister Hart, don't I have
the right to make a choice?"
Old Mister Hart was placed in a difficult position.
They were all in Zendonia, and if they forcefully punished Vicky, Tyler cared too much for Vicky to let those who
were involved go without suffering as well.

All things aside, the Harts had come to Zendonia to accept
Tyler back into the family but also because they had encountered difficulties and needed Tyler's connection to
resolve them. Hence, enraging Tyler would not do them any good.
Old Mister Hart cleared his throat. "This is just a quarrel between two young ladies, so I don't suppose this will
warrant such harsh punishment. The wound on Isabella's face isn't that severe. I will summon a few doctors to
ensure that her face recovers without a scar."
Isabella's parents paled. "No way-"
Old Mister Hart waved them off and stopped them from protesting. "Vicky will apologize to Isabella, and that's the
end of it."
"But..."
Isabella's parents wanted to argue, but Old Mister Hart scowled, and histone became stern. "What? Do you all feel
like you don't have to listen to me anymore?"
Though Old Mister Hart had retired, he was still respected and feared by many.
Isabella's parents instantly fell into silence, and Old Mister Hart smiled gently to look at Vicky.
