Chapter 413 It’s Rude of Me to Not Take Action
Blake’s face grew cold as he twisted his wrist and firmly gripped Parker’s head, exerting pressure.
Looking down on Parker from above, his lips curled into a smirk. “With the tension in the air reaching its peak, it
would be rather impolite of me not to take action now.”
Parker chuckled, about to say, “You’re quite the pretentious prick, aren’t you?”
But in the next moment, a sharp crack echoed through the room!
Parker’s head twisted ninety degrees, his body stiffening as he collapsed, crashing onto the floor with at resounding
thud!
His
eyes widened in shock.
Madam Fowler’s eyes widened as well, her pallid face growing even whiter, overwhelmed by fear.
Trembling at the corner of her mouth, Madam Feliciasuttered, “Y-you… You really…”
Did he really… kill him?
The words choked in Madam Fowler’s throat, unable to escape her lips.
Blake looked down at Parker convulsing on the floor, calmly reaching for a wet tissue from the tabletop. As he
wiped his hands, he casually remarked, “Don’t worry, I merely dismantled his head. I didn’t end his pathetic
existence.”
Madam Fowler’s legs weakened. What… What difference did that make?
Parker writhed on the ground, attempting to rise, but confusion clouded his mind. His limbs tingled with numbness,
rendering him utterly devoid of strength.
Blake’s tone was as cold and heartless as icicles hanging from the eaves on a frigid winter day. “It’s just a dislocated
cervical spine. He won’t die, but I can’t guarantee anything if he keeps writhing and thrashing
around.”
Parker froze in terror as he writhed on the ground.
A dislocated cervical spine!
Just last month, his friend had been in a car accident, speeding and crashing into a bridge pillar. His neck twisted at
an eerie angle on impact.
Although they managed to save his friend’s life, he suffered a high-level spinal cord injury, forever paralyzed and
unable to care for himself. His speech was reduced to incomprehensible babbling.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtParker felt tears welling up; he didn’t want to end up as a paralyzed invalid!
He glared at Blake with resentment.
Blake sneered, his eyes devoid of any hint of amusement. His voice dripping with coldness, he said, “Remember
this, if I ever hear a single unpleasant word about my daughter again, next time, it’ll be a 180- degree twist.”
Parker’s body broke out in a cold sweat, and as the air conditioning blew on him, he shivered from the
1
chill.
Lilly, who had just regained her senses, thought, Oh my goodness, Dad is so fierce-
However, she felt no worry or fear at all because Parker’s soul hadn’t left his body. That meant Dad hadn’t killed
him.
It was just like Grandma always said: Dad was an absolute unquestionably good person. Whatever he did, there was
always a reason behind it.
All Lilly had to do was trust Dad!
Sitting on the couch, she even reached into her little backpack and pulled out a carton of milk from the outer
pocket. Swinging her little legs back and forth, she leisurely sipped from it.
Noticing Grace’s expressionless face, she pulled out another carton. “Here, Gracie, it’s milk! Drink up!”
Polly immediately chimed in, “Finish that bottle of milk and forget about that brat!”
Grace remained silent.
The annoying parrot didn’t stop there, continuing to stretch its neck and theatrically exclaim, “Class 3F, Grace,
Grace! Your mommy has two bottles of milk for you! Wow, your mommy loves you so much! Sweetie, this is your
favorite milk! Mommy, I love.
It even mimicked two different tones perfectly.
Still, Grace remained silent.
Madam Fowler doesn’t know what to do, “Uh…”
Parker, lying on the ground, fumed.
Seriously? Shouldn’t the focus be on me now?
you—
Desperate for someone to help him, Parker pleaded for someone to call for emergency assistance, but his pleas fell
on deaf ears.
Blake asked, “Is he your younger brother-in-law?”
Madam Fowler’s expression turned complicated, and she gradually regained her composure. While signaling a
servant to call emergency services, she said. My husband had poor health as a child. When he was three years old,
his birth mother gave him away to another family to raise. Later my mother-in-law found him and brought him
back.”
In front of Lilly, Madam Fowler couldn’t be too explicit
After all, the truth was too harsh and cold. Saying that he was given away to another family was essentially
discarding a child on the verge of death.
She didn’t want Lilly to hear such a harsh reality, fearing that Blake might twist her neck 90 degrees later…
“My parents-in-law never had children of their own. After they found my husband and brought him back, they
treated him as their son. He took on the Fowler family name. My parents-in-law exhausted their entire fortune,
selling their house and car, to cure my husband. And when he grew up, he worked hard and earned a lot of money
to support and honor my parents-in-law.”
2/4
Blake nodded, realizing that Madam Fowler’s husband carried the surname Fowler while Parker Ferguson retained
the surname, Ferguson.
Upon hearing this, Lilly was in awe of Uncle Fowler, impressed by his ability to make so much money without any
initial resources. He was almost as amazing as Uncle Anthony.
Madam Fowler continued, “Once my husband became successful, his biological mother came knocking on our door.
She claimed that abandoning him was a last resort since they had no money for treatment, and he would have died
if he stayed at home. She even dared to suggest that throwing him away might have. led to a wealthy family finding
and curing him.”
She could never forget the face of that old woman, who seemed almost proud of her actions, saying, “Look, he’s
cured now, isn’t he? If I hadn’t thrown you away, would the Fowler family have found you and given you such a
good life?”
What made it even more repugnant was the fact that her husband’s birth parents weren’t extremely impoverished
back then. They had their own house and car. They simply heard that the treatment would cost at least a million
dollars, with no guarantee of success, and that’s when they abandoned her husband.
Madam Fowler sneered, “His mother couldn’t bear to provide treatment for her child, while his adoptive parents
sacrificed everything and worked tirelessly for a child they found. It ruined their health when they were still
young…”
Lilly listened intently, hanging on to every word.
She had experienced hardships in the Hatcher family during her childhood, and she had learned early on about the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfickleness of human relationships. She was more mature than most children her age…
Perhaps if another four-year-old child were sitting here, they wouldn’t understand what the adults were talking
about. But Lilly, on the other hand, already felt sympathy for Uncle Fowler, who had been. abandoned by his
biological mother.
He must have been very sad when he was thrown away…
When she was three years old, her father had also abandoned her-of course, she now knew that Stephen was not
her real father. At that time, she had felt great sadness too…
“And then?” Grace interjected, her voice was cold and clear, an unusual moment of initiative from her.
She wanted to know what decision Uncle Fowler had ultimately made between his biological mother and his
adoptive parents.
If Uncle Fowler had given his biological parents even a penny in support, Grace felt she would look down upon him.
Madam Fowler continued, “My in-laws were kind-hearted and didn’t want to say much. After all, my husband was
their biological child, and they had to consider his feelings. But my husband had the security guards kick them out
directly. They didn’t give up and kept coming to cause trouble every few days. My in-laws were already in poor
health, and this continued for two years. My mother-in-law passed away due to illness, and my father-in-law, deeply
attached to her, followed soon after.
The Ferguson family even joined in, demanding their share of the estate.
But in the end, it was her in-laws who passed away, and hey had nothing to do with their family. It was certain that
the situation wouldn’t end well.
3/4
After another two years, her husband also passed away due to illness. His childhood condition was never completely
cured, and coupled with the immense fortune he had painstakingly built, he couldn’t hold on
in the end.
Her health wasn’t good either, and she had never been able to conceive, leaving no descendants for the Fowler
family. This was her most bitter regret deep in her heart.
“The Ferguson family presented a paternity test, claiming their relationship as my husband’s biological parents and
demanding half of the inheritance through a lawsuit, Madam Fowler said with a smile. “But if my husband didn’t
give them anything during his lifetime, why would I give them a single penny now?”
She had nothing if not money. Even if it meant spending tens of millions or hundreds of millions in legal battles, she
would never let them inherit a single cent.
Lilly was puzzled. “Then why is this twisted-neck Uncle able to be here and drive such an expensive car?”
Madam Fowler’s eyes revealed a hint of despair…
