Chapter 351
Robert’s breathing became rapid.
“Wow! That’s great!” Robert thought sarcastically to himself.
It turned out that his adopted son had already slept with his granddaughter, and he knew nothing at all, like a total fool.
“You two… You two…”
Trembling in anger, he said, “Do the both of you even realize you’re family? Now that you two—my adopted son and my granddaughter-have children together, how do you expect them to live their lives when the news spreads?
“How will I face anyone after this? The Lawson family’s reputation will be ruined, and both of you are the culprits!”
Sean looked at Robert, who was on the verge of losing control and said, “That is why I will leave the Lawson family. Let Sean Lawson disappear from the surface of this Earth.”
“That is unacceptable!” Robert retaliated, his voice raised.
“I will never allow you two to be together! Do you still not realize what you will face after leaving the Lawson family? If you want the best for Angeline and the kids, you must separate immediately!”
“Granddad-“
“I can’t do that,” Sean blurted before Angeline could continue.
“Mr. Lawson Senior,” Asher interrupted as he brought over a cup of water and Robert’s medication, intending to ease the tension.
“Please take your medicine first.”
“Forget the meds!” said Robert as he pushed away the cup and pointed at Sean. “Kneel right now!” he demanded.
As Sean lifted the hem of his pants and went down on his knees as he was told, Angeline felt her heart tightening.
She grabbed Robert’s arm and cried, “Granddad…”
Robert shook as he scolded, “Angeline may be young and immature, so she let her emotions cloud her judgments, but what’s your excuse? Do you still not know how to restrain yourself after all the years under my teachings and influence?
“How could you take advantage of a woman who was drugged and have a relationship with her? That is simply outrageous and immoral! Don’t you know shame?”
“I admit that I took advantage of her, but… that was my only chance to get her to break away from conventional norms and choose to be with me Sean replied, his voice calm as ever.
Was it true that he genuinely couldn’t hold himself back that night at the Regalia Hotel?
No.
From the moment Angeline entered the Lawson household, his gaze never wavered from her.
He knew her more than anyone else ever would. Their relationship would only be possible if she’d decided to go against the world with him.
Otherwise, they could never be together, considering how much she cared about the Lawson family’s view of her.
The facts today also proved that it was the best decision he’d ever made when he claimed her as his woman.
“I’m happy to have made that decision that day.”
As soon as Sean finished speaking,
Robert shoved Angeline away and slapped him. The swing was so forceful that it sent his glasses. flying and he could taste blood immediately at the corner of his mouth.
“She’s Jessica’s daughter and my granddaughter—my biological granddaughter! You’re her uncle, for God’s sake!”
Robert’s hands trembled with anger.
He raised his cane and was about to strike Sean when Angeline rusked forward and stopped him, holding tightly onto his arm.
She sobbed, “Granddad, this is not entirely Sean’s fault.”
At the sight of Angeline defending Sean, Robert became even more infuriated and roared, “Move!”
Asher quickly stepped forward when he noticed the situation and grabbed Angeline’s shoulder to pull her away before Robert’s cane hit Sean’s back hard.
With his hands pressing against his thighs, Sean steadied himself.
He shot a look at Asher with his narrow and calm dark eyes before saying, “Take Angeline out of here.”
Asher nodded and pulled on Angeline’s arm to leave, but she hung onto Robert’s hand, tears falling like broken strings.
She begged, “Grandad… I know being with him will embarrass you and the Lawson family. I promise I will find a solution to this problem.”
