“Avery… Are you really going to be so ruthless toward me?” she asked in a murmur, her face full of disbelief, clearly incredulous.
Upon hearing this, Avery laughed, but the laughter didn’t reach his eyes.
“Ruthless? You call this ruthless? Phoebe, if it weren’t for the fact that you were once a member of the Cox family, I wouldn’t let you off so easily. Do you want to know what ‘ruthless’ really means? Since you dared to lay a hand on Neera, you should be prepared for the consequences. I will make your life worse than death, make you suffer unbearable pain day after day. You like a glamorous life, don’t you? Then I will make your life worse than that of a maggot in the gutter!”
Phoebe watched as he spoke such ruthless words, feeling as if her heart was being torn apart.
Her face was as pale as a ghost, her eyes fixed intently on Avery as tears streamed down her face.
“D-Do you despise me this much? What’s so great about that woman? All I did was act on a whim! I didn’t even harm a single hair on her, yet you’re being so heartless!”
Avery sneered, “If she had even the slightest injury, do you think you’d still be standing here, talking to me?”
“But she sent someone to hurt me! My arm is almost useless now. Can’t you see all this?”
Avery wore an indifferent expression. “It’s just an arm. If it were me, you’d probably be limbless by now.”
Phoebe was stunned, unable to believe that he could be so cold and utter such cruel words.
She didn’t know whether it was fear or despair that gripped her. Her mouth hung half open as if her soul had been sucked out, her face as white as a sheet. Suddenly, she burst into wild laughter.
“Haha, limbless… Hahaha! You want to turn me into a limbless
person…”
Then, she suddenly started to shriek, “So why don’t you turn me into a limbless person now! Why aren’t you acting? Come on, aren’t you trying to help that b*tch vent her anger? If you have the guts, kill me with a single blow now! I really want to see if that wretch will be the slightest bit moved because you’re willing to kill your own kin for justice!”
“Phoebe! Have you lost your mind? What nonsense are you spouting?”
The people present were taken aback. She suddenly started throwing a tantrum like a madwoman, prompting them to quickly scold her sternly.
Yet, Phoebe seemed to suddenly let go of all pretenses, no longer feigning delicacy and false grievances. At last, she revealed her most genuine and malicious side.
“Then again, from what I can tell, that woman doesn’t care about you at all. No matter how much you do for her, you’re worthless in her eyes! Do you know what you look like right now? You’re like a dog, a simp for her! You’re willing to do anything for her, but she can’t even be bothered to spare you a glance. Her heart is set on another man. How does that feel? Is it thrilling? Exciting? Haha, you deserve it! You deserve to get nothing!”
Now that she knew there was no way to turn things around, she decided to let everything go to hell, venting her frustration and anger without restraint.
Avery’s face darkened bit by bit, his whole body emanating a chilling aura. A heavy, oppressive atmosphere filled every corner of the living room.

Rio and Ronald were both stunned. They didn’t expect her to dare do such a thing.

As for Irwin, once he snapped back to reality, he quickly stepped forward, covering her mouth with his hand to prevent her from spewing any more nonsense.
“Mmph, mmph, mmph!” Phoebe was still unsatisfied. Even though she couldn’t speak, she kept trying to make a sound. Her eyes were firmly fixed on Avery.
In the end, she was severely punished by the Cox family’s house rules for her blatant disrespect toward Avery.
After the punishment, she was barely hanging on to life. Her face was covered in blood, while not a single part of her body was unscathed.
Irwin watched the whole process with a cold expression, showing not the slightest bit of pity.
Afterward, he ruthlessly tossed her out of the Cox residence, following the orders of Avery. Then, he made it known that from this day forward, she no longer had anything to do with the Cox family.
Phoebe stared at the mansion before her, where she had lived for many years. Her eyes were bloodshot, and a venomous look shone in them.
Once upon a time, she was the envy of all, the cherished daughter of the Cox family. But now, she had fallen far from grace.
All of this is thanks to that despicable w*nch, Neera! No matter what, as long as I still have breath left in me, I will never let Neera off the hook!
A chill swept over Neera’s back, causing goosebumps to ripple across her skin.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, Jean stood by her side. Keenly noticing her subtle trembling, he asked with concern, “What’s wrong?”
Neera chuckled. “It’s nothing. I’m just a bit chilly from the wind.”
Without uttering another word, Jean took off his coat and draped it over her.
Glancing at the time, he said, “Let’s go, it’s time for dinner. I’ve already made reservations at a restaurant.”
After he finished speaking, he called over the three little ones who were playing not far away. Then, the family of five went to the restaurant. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
In the evening, when they returned to the hotel, the triplets were so exhausted from a day of frolicking that they could hardly keep their eyes open.
Neera was in charge of Penny while the other two little ones would go to bathe with Jean.
By the time she had tucked the three children into bed, all smelling sweetly, Neera was so tired that she covered her mouth and let out a yawn.
