Chapter 676
"Mom and Dad, it's okay if you blame me, I just hope you don't hate Luna," Atlas pleaded, looking up. "Luna is innocent. I've never married in my life, and she is my only daughter. After all, she is your granddaughter."
"Grandpa and Grandma, I was wrong. You've been growing more distant from me these days, and it's been so hard for me. Have you forgotten how much you used to dote on me?" Luna also knelt beside Atlas, looking up, her hair falling back to reveal a swollen face.
"What happened here?" Chapman asked in a deep voice.
Luna bit her lip, trying to hold back tears, while Atlas said bitterly, "Felix did it."
"Damn it," Chapman exploded with rage. "The Chamberlain family is too arrogant. I'm going to see Felix's grandfather. When our Leo family was prominent in Whisperlyn City, what was the Chamberlain family?"
"No need, Grandpa. You're of age, don't stand up for me. I don't want you to get upset on my behalf anymore. The Chamberlain family isn't what it used to be. Felix said he married me thinking I was... Leo's daughter. He was purely interested in the Leo family behind me," Luna said with a sad smile.
"It's all my fault for being useless. He doesn't look down on you, but on me, because I'm a cripple and can't support you," Atlas said, patting her hand back, his voice weak and pained.
"Enough, stop talking," Margaret couldn't bear to listen anymore. "Since Vera is in prison, let the past be the past. Atlas, don't stay outside anymore, come back to the old house. From now on, be a good person and work with your brother to honor the Leo family."
"Can I really come back?" Atlas looked cautiously at Leo on the sickbed. "Dad, never mind. I don't want my brother to misunderstand me again."
Leo's lips moved, and Luna had already said, "Dad, please listen to Grandpa. I'm often at the Chamberlain's family, and how can I be at ease with you in this condition without someone to take care of you? What if you fall? Servants are never like family."
"Come back," Margaret said, even more worried when she heard this. "Move back today."
Leo closed his eyes.
Before long, Chapman and the others left with Atlas and Luna.
Sie had been watching the whole scene, genuinely surprised that Atlas and his daughter benefited after Vera went to prison. Luna was one thing, but for Atlas, a man, it was truly shameless.
"Dad, what do you think?" Sie looked at her own father. If he was like Grandpa and Grandma, she wouldn't get involved in this mess.
"What kind of look is that? Do you think your dad, after all he's been through, is still as naive as before?" Leo said reflectively. "Atlas may be even more dangerous than Vera. He clearly understands the sympathy and guilt Grandpa and Grandma have for him."
"Isn't that the truth."
Sie was contemplative. Despite the advanced age of the two elders of the Leo family, they still had quite a bit of property. Although the old man had retired, he still had a lot of influence in the Leo Group and Whisperlyn City. Once Luna and Atlas climbed up, they would rise with the tide.
No wonder enemies always seem to be as indestructible as cockroaches, only if there are too many fools around.
