Chapter 93
A blow from a rod shattered David’s legs. “Ahl he screamed, feeling the sickening crack of his bones. The pain was unbearable, making him grit hỏi teeth and unable to say a word:
But it didn’t stop there, the attacker kept going with the iron rod, breaking his hands too. The crunching sounds echoed ominously. Almost every joint in his body was shattered
He could hardly see the person on the sofa, only noticing a pair of feet pinning him to the floor, trapping him in a position from which he would never rise again. After enduring such torture, David lost consciousness.
With disdain, the assailant said. “To oppose Isabel is to invite death!”
He thought to himself, Even if Isabel forgives you, I never will. I will always protect label! She is my everything
On the weekend, the Galvez family came together, Sophia called everyone to share a meal. This was the most complete gathering the family had seen in a while. They were family, after all, and it was important to keep up appearances
At the dining hall, it was clear that the Galvez family was full of life. At the head of the table sat Sophi
“Today, we are lucky to reunite, and it’s a moment to celebrate. From now on, if anyone dares to target Hannah and Samael, I won’t show mercy You need to respect them, understand?” Sophia addressed everyone.
Hannah sat next to Samuel, with him on the left and Isabel on the right. She looked a bit nervous. This was the first time she could sit at the Galvez family table with dignity-
After years, she had finally been acknowledged. She knew her husband and daughter fought for her recognition, making this moment possible.
Everyone nodded in agreement with Sophia. William and Hugh even stood to make a toast. “Samuel, Hannah, we apologize for our past i
our past mistakes: now that we are family, we ask for your forgiveness for any wrongs we’ve dopr!“.
Samuel looked at Hannah, and they both raised their glasses. “All I hope is that you treat Hannah with the respect she deserves from now on, I’m willing to overlook past mistakes! Samuel declared
While the others seemed friendly, they still had their own intentions.
“Samuel is amazing. Since he took charge of Star Electronics, it has done better than when William managed itt William. Hugh, you both should learn from Samuel Sophia continued
Hugh nodded, while William clearly showed he disagreed. As expected, their earlier niceties were just formalities, lacking real feeling.
“By the way, I heard Allex has a girlfriend now?” Sophis turned to Alex, smiling. He was the eldest grandson of the Galvez family, loved by Sophia since he was a child for his cleverness
Among Samuel’s kids, Alex was the only one Sophia had truly cared for. Sadly, he had fallen down the stairs, and since then, he had drifted away from the family, leaving Sophia heartbroken.
Samuel urged Alex to respond. With a goofy grin, Alex said, “Y–yes, Grandma!”
Fiona and Grace exchanged glances, showing their disdain to a fool Cuinevere muttered, “Idiot”
“Mom, Joanna has been doing great in her piano studies and is about to take her exam. She’ll even be performing Grace chimed in.
Sophia looked at the obedient Joanna, saying, “Joanna is very sman. As a young lady in society, those skills are important. In the future, she will surely marry well and bring honor to the Galvez family!”
Sophia’s praise made Grace feel proud. Joanna stood politely and said, “Grandma, I will do my best
Sophia nodded, satisfied. But Guinevere was no source of hope: her obsession with cosmetic procedures was a problem, and she had ignored advice before, getting involved with unsuitable suitors.
Besides, Guinevere’s playful nature made her seem less intelligent and reserved than Joanna, showing no signs of being a proper young lady. Sophia wanted Joanna to be the true socialite who would lift the Galvez family’s status,
Guinevere knew that Sophia constantly compared her to Joanna, making her feel inferior. But today, she felt better about herself, knowing there was Roy who was worse off than her

She came from a prestigious family, unlike Roy, who grew up in village and couldn’t compare. So, she decided to belinle Roy. “Boy, what have you been up to lately? I think I saw you delivering takeout. Are you still doing that?
Roy, who usually kept quiet and enjoyed her meal, now felt the spotlight and struggled for words. Guinevere realized her discomfort, knowing that revealing her job would be embarrassing for her.
At that moment, all eyes turned to Roy Stammering, she finally said, “I I no longer deliver takeout, I’ve changed jobs.
“Oh, please tell us what your new job ist Has Samuel convinced you to join Star Electronics? He’s eager to bring everyone on board! Alex is in the Security Department, Isabel is in the Finance Department, and now even Roy is joining!”
Guinevere’s sarcasm was clear. Sophia’s expression darkened a bit. “Samuel, is this true? Have you gotten all your kids into the company? Are you trying to take over the whole business?
“Mom, it’s not like that at all! Alex joined Security because the whole department was empty, he was just helping out as he has always been security personnel! It’s better to work for the family than for others.
“Isabel is only helping with finance temporarily until we find someone else, she’s supposed to continue her education, and I don’t want her to be
exhausted.
“As for Roy, she’s working in design at Dely Studio, which has nothing to do with our family! It’s not at all what Guinevere suggested!”
Samuel offered this explanation, but no one really listened. They recognized the name Dely Studio, and it caught their attention. “Samuel, what did you just say? Roy has joined Dely Studio?” William asked, shocked.
“Samuel, is this true? Don’t lie to us! Hugh pressed.
Samuel’s face darkened as he faced the doubt. “Why would I lie about this?”
