Chapter 304  That’s absurd, Anthony Benedict exclaimed, incredulous. “How can you say we don’t treat you like a normal person? Every single one of us does!

301.Chapter 301 Relief washed over Anthony, even as a cold sweat broke out on his skin. Thank goodness Sophie was unharmed, he thought. Turning back to Gabriel, Anthony forced a smile, his face tight with tension. “Father, I apologize. The scent of blood startled me, and I fear I spoke out of line.” Gabriel sneered, his voice icy. “It wasn’t wrong–it was the truth, wasn’t it?” Of his four sons, Gabriel knew Anthony was the most distant. He showed little affection for his siblings or even for Gabriel. Only Sophie, whom Gabriel had brought home, received Anthony’s unusual attention. Anthony’s frailty made him insignificant to Gabriel, who had already chosen his heir and only required obedience from his remaining sons. Gabriel bypassed Anthony, entering the room and taking a seat. He dispatched a shadow guard to attend to Roger’s remains. The room, however, still bore the gruesome stains of the deed, carrying an eerie atmosphere. Sophie’s skin crawled as she stood in her room, the gruesome sight making her feel sick. “Father,” she whispered, trembling. “Could I please move to a different room later?” The thought of sleeping there in that room filled her with dread. Gabriel glared coldly at her and scoffed, “No. You don’t get to choose.” He would have indulged her whims without a second thought if she had been her usual obedient self, but his anger was palpable now. He believed that if he didn’t discipline her now, she would only create more problems for him later. “Leave the bloodstains,” he said. “You can clean them when you’ve learned your lesson.” Sophie shivered, instinctively wanting to protest, but Gabriel’s chilling gaze silenced her. Fear kept her mouth shut. Anthony said, “Father, Sophie is still young. Seeing all this blood might give her nightmares. Perhaps we could…” Gabriel’s voice was icy. “Since when do you have the right to question my decisions?” Anthony and Sophie went silent, their faces stiff. Gabriel shot Anthony a look before turning to Sophie. “Still want to switch rooms?” Sophie shook her head quickly, afraid to speak. When they were both quiet, Gabriel spoke again, his voice full of contempt. “One of your plots is foolish, and the other is incompetent. Neither of you can avoid trouble. You constantly use that idiot Matthew for your schemes and fail miserably every time. How utterly disgraceful.” Anthony and Sophie hung their heads, humiliated, their faces pale with shame. Gabriel scoffed. “You refuse to lear lesson and continue to cause trouble, so I’ll give you one last chance. Fail me again, and you’ll be married off. Stir up even an ounce of trouble after that, and you’ll be thrown out of the Duke’s estate, just like Dylan.” Gabriel tapped the table twice, and a shado guard immediately brought him a stack of papers. “These are the projects Eliza has managed since returning to Hasen City from Noganlul,” Gabriel said. “Please review them.” Anthony and Sophie eagerly grabbed the papers and delved into the detailed records of medicinal herb seeds, seedlings, and newly acquired farmland. Anthony looked up from his reading, confused. “Father, why is Eliza buying so many herb seeds and seedlings? Solacecrest Manor is already overflowing with herbs. What’s the point of planting more?” Gabriel laughed mockingly. “Still haven’t figured it out? No wonder Eliza keeps outsmarting you.” He continued in a calm tone, “Eliza’s rise to become the Holy Lady may have been lucky at first, but luck doesn’t last. She has no real power, so she’ll need a good plan to hold onto her position.. “Eliza’s past actions show she’s dedicated to medicine, aiming to heal as the Holy Lady. However, mastering the healing arts takes time and dedication, especially for someone starting their journey. That’s why she’s currently focused on medicinal herbs.” Taking a sip of his drink slowly, Gabriel continued, “Go to the last page. It explains how Eliza donated medicinal herbs to Plutonville and Noganlul. Those donations are why she’s so widely admired.” He scoffed at Eliza, who had divine powers, dismissing claims that she could summon rain or cure plagues. Gabriel suspected that she had enhanced her reputation through more than mere coincidence, perhaps by capitalizing on the demand for medicinal herbs during the Pluto Successfully unlocked! lul plague. Eliza’s generosity in providing what was needed eit Gaver convinced that the people of Plutonville and Noganlul would undoubtedly praise her. Anthony and Sophie finally understood. “So, she intends to study medicine and cultivate herbs simultaneously. Once the herbs are fully grown, she’ll distribute them as donations or through sales under the brand name ‘Holy Lady’s Hand–Planted 1/2 301 Chapter 301 … Read More “Than Your Daughter 301” »
