Chapter 553
"Dear, stop beating him! If you continue, you'll kill our son...!' Hayden cried as she held Liam in her arms. Tears flowed down her
face as she begged," Liam is your only son! You have a huge business! If you kill him, who will inherit it?"
"Mom, I don't like that you said that!"
Laura, the third daughter of the Osborne family, sneered, "You make it sound like we're not part of the family! What? Did you pick
us up from the roadside? Even if Liam is no more, it's not like the Osborne name will go extinct! What century are we in? Why do
you still prefer sons over daughters?"
"That's right!" Geronimo exclaimed. "Liam is not my only descendent! If I beat this loser to death, I still have six daughters! Every
single one of them brings me less heartache than this loser, especially Laura! The family business I handed to her has been
flourishing these years, and I'd be at ease if I handed them all the business!"
Laura smirked, then said to Liam, who was kneeling in the middle of the room, "When you took that money to start Azure Group,
you didn't just use it to pick up girls, did you? We thought you were over that, but who would have thought you would become
more addicted the more you invested? You took all of the Osbornes' money and threw it at Stefan's wife, and what was the
result? She got tired of playing with you, obviously. Did she thank you? Did she let you touch her? You've been licking her shoes
for so many years. Did you get anything out of it? Now you're almost dead from getting beaten. Do you think she cares?"
Liam clenched his fist tightly, and he glared at Laura with reddened eyes, sneering, "Dear sister, I warn you to speak respectfully.
The boss is my savior, and she holds a sacred place in my heart! If you continue with such disrespect, don't blame me for
ignoring our relationship!"
Geronimo became angrier when he heard those words.
"You brat! You've been bewitched! I've had an outstanding life and experienced countless women! How could I have given birth
to such an idiot who gets affected by love? What shitty retribution is this?!"
The older man was furious that he raised the iron whip in his hand and brought it down fiercely again. "You'll be ruined in that
woman's hands sooner or later, so I might as well just kill you today and get it over with!"
"Stop!"
Renee's voice rang out clear and firm.
Everyone turned to the door.
Liam, who had been calm, immediately became angry and shouted at Leia, "You stupid girl! Are you crazy? Why did you tell
her?!"
"Liam, you're still putting up such a brave front? If I didn't get Ren here, Father would have killed you!'
Leia cried as she rushed over and hugged Geronimo's arm. "Father, Liam is my twin! Our lives are connected. If you really want
to beat him, then beat me as well! If he dies, I can't live either!"
"Lei, get up! Your brother doesn't know any better, but you don’t have to follow his example! If you're not careful, I might
accidentally hit you with the whip!'
Liam was the most favored child in the family, but Leia, the youngest daughter, came after him. So, when Geronimo spoke to her,
he unconsciously toned down a little.
"No! Either you stop hitting Liam, or you hit the both of us together!"
"Come! Take her away!" Geronimo ordered his subordinates coldly.
Renee walked up to Geronimo and said humbly, "It's been a while, Uncle Geronimo. I think the one you're really angry with isn't
Liam but me, the real culprit of this mess. So, as long as you forgive Liam, I'm willing to pay the price!
