Chapter 941: Cold-Blooded and Heartless

Florences eyes widened in disbelief. She couldnt believe those words came out of her fathers mouth.

Just now, all the Howards were accusing and blaming her. They even wished they could kick her out of the family immediately. Despite feeling sad, she didnt have any other emotional fluctuations.

But her father actually put all the blame on her and even said that he would sever ties with her, expel her from the family, and let Hades deal with her.

What he said made Florences blood freeze!

Even Hades looked surprised as he asked sinisterly, Isnt this woman your biological daughter? Can you bear to leave her at my mercy?

Felix nodded without hesitation. Yes. Although shes indeed my daughter, shes brought disaster to the Howards. For the sake of my family, I can only expel her from the family!

After we remove her from the family, she and her son-in-law will no longer have anything to do with the Howards. You can do whatever you want to them, but I hope that you wont vent your anger on the rest of the Howards.

His eyes were extremely cold, and his words were extremely indifferent and heartless.

This scene was like a dagger stabbing deep into Florences heart.

Tears welled up in Florences eyes as she asked through gritted teeth. Father in your heart, have you never treated me as your daughter?

Felix stared at her coldly. How dare you have the cheek to ask me that? If it wasnt because of you and your son-in-law, how could the Howards be in so much trouble?

Also, dont think Im unaware that youve hated me for a long time. You should already know about that man, and maybe youve been thinking about how to kill me to avenge him.

At this point, what right do you have to say that I dont care about our father-and-daughter relations.h.i.+p?

Felix spoke mercilessly and exposed what Florence had been trying hard to hide.

Florence felt like a sharp knife suddenly stabbed in her chest, putting her in so much pain that her face turned deathly pale.

So, you already knew She laughed self-deprecatingly before suddenly raising her head to glower at Felix with a burning gaze. She shouted, You were the one who did that to me first!

I used to look up to you and respect you as my father, but what about you?

For the sake of the familys interests. You kept trying to stop us from being together and insisting that I marry a man from another wealthy family. Later, you even killed him!

And you deliberately hid this information from me, making me look like a fool for thinking that he abandoned me and my child. I even hated him for so many years! You must have been so proud to see me kneeling in front of you and begging for forgiveness while hating him. At the time, did you ever think that I was your daughter?

Later, you still used me as a p.a.w.n and made me marry another man. Did you ever treat me as your daughter?

Since youve treated me like this, am I supposed to continue treating you as a loving father and let you use me? Shouldnt I hate you?

Florence stopped hiding the hatred and grievances in her heart. She lashed out at Felix with her face covered in the tears she had been holding back for years.

But after Felix heard Florences complaints, his expression didnt change at all. He merely said coldly, Youre a daughter of the Howards, and the purpose of your existence is to obey the familys arrangements obediently and contribute your value to the family! What am I raising you for if youre useless to the family?

As for that man, youre the one who killed him!

Youve long known about the family rules, so you have known that your only choice was to marry a scion of another wealthy family for a marriage alliance. But you insisted on disobeying me and eloping with that man. In the end, the person who killed that man is you, not me!

Felixs cold and indifferent words were like a hammer slamming into Florences head, causing her to be so dizzy that she could barely stand.

How was this possible?!

Clearly, Felix was the heartless man who had ordered someone to kill Drew Cruise, yet he pushed the blame onto her!

So when you said that as long as I could salvage the relations.h.i.+p between Lucas and the Howards within ten days, you would let me become helmsman. Was that a lie too? Florence stared intently into Felixs eyes with clenched teeth.

With a contemptuous sneer, Felix said, Do you think that the Howards, one of the eight top families of DC, would hand over the position of helmsman to a woman? How embarra.s.sed would the Howards be if word about that got out?

Florence stumbled forward and almost fell to the floor, her mind almost turning blank.

At this point, she finally realized that right from the beginning, Felix had never thought of handing over the position of helmsman to her because she was just his p.a.w.n.

Felix had only made a verbal promise to tempt her into slogging her guts out to do whatever he wanted her to.

Even if she really completed those matters, he would have a hundred reasons to demand more from her. But in the end, he would never give her the position of helmsman.

He clearly knew what she wanted the most, but he used it as bait to make use of her!

It was just like how Felix didnt hesitate to break her and Drew Cruise up to get her to agree to a marriage alliance. He had even killed Drew.

Felix had said that he could allow her to return to the Howards on the condition that she agreed to marry into the Lambert family. Later, he even controlled her to seize all the Lamberts a.s.sets.

What he was doing now was also for the sake of the familys interests.

Florence smiled self-deprecatingly, It turns out that everything you said to me is fake!

You said that you wanted me to find a way to resolve the conflict between Lucas and the Howards, and then you would let me become the family head. You were just using me to rope Lucas in to make him work for the Howards.

Also, you told Lucas previously that if he brought Cheyenne back to the Howards, you would let him become the Howards helmsman. You must have been fooling him too, huh? Unfortunately, I took it seriously and even reprimanded him

In fact, Lucas has much greater awareness than me! Back then, he rejected it without hesitating at all. He must have already seen through your motive, and he never trusted you at all! Haha, despite being at this age, Im still far more ignorant than a young man!

Now, someone from the Peerless Martial a.s.sociation came, and its related to Lucas. You severed ties with him because you think that hes about to die and wont be of any use to the family. In order to do that, youve even kicked me out of the family!

Father, youre really cold and ruthless. All you care about are interests! You try to make use of anyone who will benefit you, and you wont hesitate to kick away anyone who has no value to you!

Haha, youre just a heartless person! Youre so cold-blooded its terrifying!

Pamela smiled mirthlessly with a face full of tears.

I should have long realized what kind of a person my father is. Yet I keep holding onto hope for him, thinking that although hes heartless, he should still care about me since Im his daughter.

But the cruel truth had now hit Florence hard, causing her to sink into despair!
