Chapter 318 Is it not evil to do evil for a reason? (Thanks｜Ayano Yusaki｜Gagen)
"Why do you have the courage to bully us, but not the courage to divorce? Do you like to torture each other?"

"Shut up!" Mrs. Sterling yelled, "You don't understand anything at all. I have endured so far because of you, so that you can have a complete family and a good education..."

"No, you don't have the courage to be independent! Don't use me as an excuse!"

"Independence is not that simple! Without your father, how can we survive? Your grandfather left us nothing except the title and this house. Do you want me to be a female worker?"

"What's wrong with being a female worker? It's better to earn money by your own labor than to swallow your anger and rely on others' handouts ten thousand times!"

"Do you really want me to be a female worker? The descendants of the dignified Earl Sterling are reduced to working with the low-level people in the dirty workshop? Others will laugh at us to death, and we will live with the ridicule of others for the rest of our lives!"

"What kind of absurdity is this! What does it matter to you what other people say? Do you live for others? Those who like to make irresponsible remarks, will they be responsible for your life? If not, why bother with them How to say!"

"You are still a child, that's why you think so naively..."

"I'm not a child. I'm already 18 years old, and I'll be 19 after the new year. On the contrary, you, who obviously lived twice as long as me, didn't understand at all."

"Stop talking!" Sterling suddenly shouted hoarsely, and at the same time pulled the pillow and threw it over.

"Look what you've become!" Phoebe was still saying.

"Ma'am!" At this moment, Barbara ran in with the medicine, put down the plate and supported Mrs. Sterling, who was panting heavily, and helped her unbutton her corset.

Mrs. Sterling pointed at Phoebe, trembling for a long time but was unable to speak.

"Miss, you go out first, the doctor told Madam not to get emotional." Barbara turned her head to persuade Phoebe.

Phoebe wanted to say something else, but when she saw that Mrs. Sterling was out of breath, she had to turn around and back out.

After going out, Phoebe immediately left the house and went to the street to find Dad.

Relying on his years of tracking experience, Phoebe quickly found Dodge in the theater box, and he was watching a play with the young man he had seen in the hotel last time.

"Dad, I want to talk to you." Phoebe rushed in regardless of the waiter's obstruction.

"Phoebe, why are you here?" Dodge hurriedly stood up.

"I want to talk to you."

"I'm busy! Can you be later?"

"Is what you're talking about going to the theater with this guy?" Phoebe asked angrily, pointing at the man next to Dodge.

When the young man heard Phoebe talk about him, he shrank back from Dodge, as if Phoebe was going to eat him.

Seeing this action, the anger in Phoebe's heart rose a little more.

"I really have something to do now, can I wait until noon?" Dodge begged.

"No!" Phoebe said firmly.

Dodge glanced at the man next to him, sighed helplessly, and said, "Okay."

"Collins, I've only watched half of the play!" The young man complained dissatisfiedly.

"Shut up! It's not your turn to intervene when I'm talking to my dad!" Phoebe grabbed the man by the collar and pushed him to the ground so hard that his face turned pale with fright.

"Don't touch Phoebe, I'll just go with you." Dodge helped the man up.

Soon, Dodge brought Phoebe to his office.

"Why did you hit Mommy?" Phoebe asked sharply.

"Don't be angry, sit down and have a cup of tea!" Dodge closed the office door, and then went to get the teapot.

"I don't want tea, I want you to answer my words: why did you hit your mother?"

"Things are not what you think..." Dodge walked behind the desk and sat down, "Don't listen to your mother's words."

"I didn't hear it from my mother, I heard it from Barbara, she wouldn't have made you up!"

"When did Barbara start talking about Master behind her back? It seems that I should arrange for her to retire." Dodge said dissatisfied.

"Father, if you don't love your mother anymore, why didn't you divorce her and torture her? Is it because you don't want to give up your title?"

"Phoebe, what nonsense are you talking about? Is this what you said to your father?"

"While fooling around outside and bullying my mother, such a father is really terrible!"

"Phoebe, what's wrong with you? You ran away from home for many years and didn't even write a letter. Why do you suddenly become an envoy of justice now? Look at your appearance, and those who don't know think you are so filial. You forgot that you used to What did you do to your mother?"

"I—" Phoebe was momentarily at a loss for words.

"Your mother is a crazy woman now." Dodge continued, "Suspicious all day long, rummaging through my things, and burning my address book without authorization... Every time I go home, she quarrels with me and disturbs me. I can't live in peace. I was really angry and I did it to her, and she can only blame herself."

"What are you talking about? Does she deserve to be beaten just because she lost her temper?" Phoebe shouted, "It turns out that as long as you find a reason for doing evil, you can be forgiven! What do you need the law for? Breaking the law for a reason , isn’t it against the law?”

"I don't want to argue with you about legal issues. If you're here to complain about your mother, then I'm sorry, I have something to do, so I won't accompany you!" After finishing speaking, Dodge picked up his hat and coat, pushed Phoebe away and walked out .

Phoebe hurriedly chased after him, and Dodge went straight downstairs without looking back, got into the car and left.

"You're too much!" Phoebe shouted angrily from behind.

Back home, Allie took Phoebe into the garden and advised her to leave it alone.

"Are you kidding me, how can I just sit back and watch my mom get beaten?" Phoebe said angrily.

"Miss Phoebe, forgive me for being rude. Is your reaction to this incident really out of concern for your wife, or because you feel guilty about leaving home for four years?"

Hearing this, Phoebe froze.

"You just came back. Madam originally wanted to use this to restore her relationship with you. Maybe you forced her to divorce and went to the master's company to make trouble. Madam was afraid of being discussed by others. If you make such a big move, she will be under more pressure. .”

"No, I'm not! I... I just, I just..."

"I know you have good intentions, but please consider Madam's ability to bear it! You always say that Madam imposes her will on you, but what you are doing now is also imposing her will on Madam. ?”

Phoebe thought for a while, then bowed her head and said nothing.

"I'm going to help you see how your lunch is going. I asked them to make your favorite baked sweet shrimp with cheese." After finishing speaking, Ellie went to the kitchen.
