“Father, since you acknowledged it, why didn’t you help me deliver justice?” Clarence froze and stared at Armstrong in surprise.

“Justice? Heh! Clarence, what justice do you want? f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎

“Do I have to slap William’s face before everyone for your sake?” Armstrong scoffed. He shook his head, thinking Clarence was very naive.

“Father, does showing respect to William matter more than my reputation? Miranda has misunderstood me…”

Clarence’s eyes were red as he let out a low bellow, enunciating each and every word clearly.

At that moment, Clarence gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. The bones of his fingers creaked, and his fingernails sunk deep into his flesh.

“What are you yelling about?!” Armstrong’s face darkened. He smirked. “William would certainly attain higher achievements in the future compared to you. With your standards, you could only go on like this for the rest of your life. Moreover, William is fond of Miranda. You’ve been married into the Murphy family for three years. What have you contributed to my family thus far?!

“We’ve thought about it. As long as you’re willing to divorce Miranda, I would immediately marry her to William.

“Clarence, you should be aware that people are classified into different social strata.

“Some people are destined to be nobler and more powerful than you.

“Some people are able to start out from nothing, but you’re definitely not one of them. Clarence, Lady Luck would never smile upon you.

“This is your destiny!

“You’re an orphan. You don’t have any parents. You should already count it enough of a blessing for marrying into the Murphy family. What more do you want?!

“You’re uneducated, uncultivated, and of low standards. On the other hand, William is a graduate of a prestigious university from abroad. Do you think I would embarrass William for your sake?!

“William is obviously way much better than you. He is the right match for Miranda!

“You should look for an opportunity to divorce her. After that, I’ll arrange the wedding for William and Miranda.”

Clarence gritted his teeth so hard that his gums almost bled. He breathed in and out heavily like a beast and said, “So, showing respect to William is more important than my reputation and dignity, right?!

“In your eyes, William is your true son-in-law. No matter what I do or how well I perform, I’m always a loser to you, right?!”

At that moment, Clarence’s eyes were red. Tears welled up in them.

“That’s right.”

Armstrong’s reply was the final straw that broke Clarence down.

“People are classified into different social strata. Clarence Howard, you’re destined to stay in the lower strata!” ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m

Clarence closed his eyes. His shoulders were shaking. Tears streamed down his face.

Clarence never cried once no matter how poorly he had been humiliated, struck, scolded, and even misunderstood by Miranda. This was because he thought that as a man, he was capable of bearing all these sufferings.

However, Armstrong’s words made him break down into tears.

He cried miserably.

This feeling of being looked down upon from the bottom of someone’s heart made Clarence feel that everything he did was simply worth nothing in Armstrong’s eyes.

No matter how hard he worked and strived, he was all but a loser in everyone’s eyes. He was trash, an inferior being of a lower strata!

Those words felt like a knife sinking into his heart.

“Clarence, let me warn you, you should just forget about today’s incident. If you dare to bring this up in the future, you would never have a place in the Murphy family anymore!” After Armstrong blurted out those words coldly, he slammed the door and left.
