Chapter 268
“All you talk about is your mother! You don’t want anything good to happen to your sister. You sure are your mother’s good daughter!” Tony Cummins said angrily and stormed straight into the room. Moments later, he came out with a photo album.
Grace shivered. That photo album was… her mother’s photo album. It contained many photos of her and her mother!
She saw Tony Cummins take out a lighter and lit the album on fire. “Since you don’t want anything good to happen to your sister, I don’t need to give you this photo album. Your mother wouldn’t have wanted a daughter like you!”
The album burst into flames, and Tony Cummins threw it straight onto the tiled floor.
Grace almost let out a scream. She pulled her sleeves over her hands to try and swat out the flames as best as she could.
It could not burn. It could not!
The photos inside were all memories of her and her mother! The photo album could not be burned like this!
Grace did not even know how long she screamed for. She

Why are you looking at your father this way? I’ll burn the album if I want to. What can you do about it?”
Grace burst out laughing, but her eyes grew colder. “If Mom was still alive, she would surely wonder why she married a jerk like you!”
“Is that what you should be saying right now?” Tony Cummins
raised his hand in anger and slapped Grace hard in the face.
Grace stumbled backward. She quickly regained her footing while the tattered photo album remained clutched in her

“You’re not worthy to be her husband! If you had any affection.
for her, you wouldn’t have burned this album!” Grace said
