“Screw you!” Severin fumed with rage. He could still tolerate it if other people badmouthed him, but the
one thing he could never ept was hearing someone call his daughter a b*stard child!
In a sh, he kicked Edward in the stomach and sent thetter tumbling to the ground.

“Ack!” Edward spat out a mouthful of blood. A shocked expression appeared on his face, as if
bewildered at being kicked by a loser like Edward.
“Why is it so hard for you to keep yourposure, Severin?” Diane was horrified because she knew
that Edward was the scion of a second-tier upper-ss family. While there was no doubt that she was
just as angry at Edward for the things he said, Severin’s reaction would only make things worse!
“Honey, I can bear with many things, but hearing this son-of-a-b*tch calling Selene a b*stard isn’t one
of them!” Severin said angrily.
“Why are you guys just standing there? Beat him up!” Edward struggled to get up and ordered his
bodyguards viciously.
“Mom, I’m scared!” Selene was frightened by the sudden development in the situation and hugged
Diane’s thigh at once. Severin started to regret his actions when he saw how scared his daughter was.
Hitting people might feel good for him, but a frightening experience was hardly ideal for his daughter.
At that moment, however, the four bodyguards had already begun to attack him. Their stance and the
way they swung their fists were a clear sign that they were trained individuals, and Severin had no
choice but to fight back. He punched them several times in quick session, and the four bodyguards
were all thrown to the ground before they could evennd a blow on his body.
“Arghh!” The four bodyguards writhed on the ground and clutched their chests.
“Get up, you losers! I told you to bear him up!” Edward yelled as he retreated. Severin’s skills had
scared him out of his wits.
“Sir, I…I feel like my ribs are broken!” One of the bodyguards finally stood up and said with a wince.
“Sir, mine are broken too!”
The other three bodyguards said the same thing too.
“F*ck this!” Edward waspletely speechless. He did not expect that his four bodyguards-all of whom
were martial artists-were not even able to go up against one person.
“All right, kid. Just you wait. This doesn’t end here!” Atst, Edward stormed out with his men and left
the premises in embarrassment.
Diane seemed to be a little dumbstruck as she stood behind Severin. After all, she did not expect him
to be that capable of holding his own in a fight.
“Yay! Dad won! Isn’t that awesome, Mom?” The fear that Selene earlier had was instantly reced with
joy. She leaped for joy and pped her hands when Edward and his men left after getting beaten by
Severin.
Severin came over, carried Selene tenderly, and kissed her chubby face. “Aren’t you scared, Selene?”
“I was scared that those meanies will beat you up, but you were so strong, Dad! Those bad guys are no
match for you!” the little girl said innocently.
Severin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that and said to Selene, “Great. Would you like to be
as good as I am in the future?”
“Yeah!” she answered without hesitation.
Severin smiled. “All right. When you get older, I’ll teach you how to punch, hone your inner energy, and
turn you into a super-powerful girl! Would you like that?”
“Yay! I can’t wait! I want to be just as strong as you next time!”
Selene’s happiness showed on her face.
On one side, Diane rolled her eyes at Severin. “Of all the things you could teach your daughter, did you
really have to choose fighting skills? And you make it sound so mysterious when you say ‘hone your
inner energy. I think you just read too many novels!”
“Haha!” Severinughed in response to her remark. He looked at her from head to toe once more. This
dress really does look beautiful on you! You should try on a few others!”
Severin then turned to the fear-stricken Bree who was standing to one side. “Could you bring those
dresses over here as well? I’d like my wife to try them too!”
