Chapter 172
“Selina, you… you dare hit me! Lisa came back to her senses and felt the burning sensation on her face. Her eyes turned red, and tears began to fall.
As the little princess of the Brady family, no one had ever dared to slap her. Even Trevon, whom Lisa feared most, would at most spank her bottom.
“Why can’t I? Identity–wise, I’m your cousin–in–law. Every word you said was to humiliate me, so me hitting you is just a light punishment. I’ve warned you before but you’re still so stubborn. Fine, spoiled young lady. If you want revenge, I’ll play with you. Come on.” Selina provocatively hooked her finger at Lasa. Lisa, who had just been slapped, couldn’t stand such provocation. She rushed forward aggressively but was easily tripped by Selina and fell flat on her face.
“Lisa” Herbert rushed over and helped Lisa up. Seeing that her calf was bleeding, he glared at Selina. “Selina, don’t go too far! This is the Brady residence, not the Brady manor. Do you think I’m dead? How dare you bully my sister like this?”
Selina said, “Alright, Herbert. If you want to avenge your sister, I’ll give you this chance to fight me right here. I believe in not dragging out things we can solve with our fists. Otherwise, like what happened to your sister just now, getting slapped after vapping for so long would be so boring, wouldn’t it?”
Herbert was speechless as he fumed inwardly. ‘Enough is enougli. Since she already said so, what kind of brother and man would I be if I still held back after seeing Lisa get beaten up like this?
He instantly rushed to fight Selina. The result was predictable. Selina knocked him down without even trying. Herbert gasped heavily and felt pain all over his body. Although fighting wasn’t Herbert’s strong suit, the Brady family members must learn basic life–saving techniques. But why was there such a big gap in strength between him and Selina? Lisa mumbled, “Herbert…” She was dumbfounded, as even Herbert was no match for Selina. She wondered, ‘Are we really going to be humiliated and trampled on by Selina today? She already dares to be so unruly in the Brady residence. What more will she do in the future? This wasn’t only for Ashley anymore, but also for Lisa to regain her dignity.
“What happened?” an angry voice asked.
Hearing the voice, Linda seemed to hear salvation and hurriedly shouted, “Dad, we’re here!”
A burst of strength shot through Lisa as she got up and threw herself into Keith’s arms. She cried, “Dad, that woman….. Trevon’s wife dared to hit me and Herbert. Look at how she hit my face.”
Keith’s heart broke to see Lisa’s red and swollen face. He only had the one daughter who was conceived in his old age. He had doted on her since her childhood and never dared lay a finger on her.
He fumed, “Selina, you’re bold. Do you think everyone here is dead? You think you’re allowed to do whatever you want? Don’t think you can hurt others just because Trevon married you!”
Selina said, “Don’t be angry, Uncle Keith. Won’t you let me explain first before you sentence me to death?”
She took out her phone and pressed the play button. The conversation between her and Lisa started playing clearly, Lisa was stunned. “You… You secretly recorded us?”
“Of course. Keeping evidence is the first way a normal person would think to avoid complications.” Selina looked at Keith with a faint smile. “Uncle Keith, I warned your precious daughter not to spout nonsense in front of me again, but she didn’t listen. She had to stick her neck out for her best friend and tarnish my reputation for no reason. In the Brady family, she may be the apple of everyone’s eve everyone may spoil her, but I won’t do the same.”

Keith’s expression was dark. Even so… you can’t just hit her. The nature of this has changed.”
Selina answeird. “The best way to shut someone up is to hit the till they’re hurt, scared and regret it too late. What do you mean by a change in nature? Would she have shut up if I turned around and left? I think she’s keeping her mouth shut pretty well right now.”
Selina took one glance at Lisa, who trembled in fear. But, at the thought of having back up, Lisa wasn’t afraid of what Selina might do. Lisa quickly said, “Dad, your heard what she said? She’s not even taking you seriously. You must avenge me since I got bullied.”
Keith said, “Selina, I won’t be fooled by your nonsense. Even if Lisa’s wrong, you shouldn’t have hit her. I need
this to me.”
“What explanation do you want, Uncle Keith?” a cold voice interrupted.
Trevon quickly came to Selina’s side and checked if she was safe. “Are you okay, honey?”
Selina replied, “It’s not a big deal. These people can’t hurt me.”
you
to explain
She secretly sighed. She knew that things would not be so simple when they arrived at the Brady residence since Trevon was involved. She thought, Forget it. My husband got involved because of the family affairs, so it should be fine for him to express his opinion. Anyway, I’m not about to be bullied by them
The confidence she had in her actions was that Trevon would stand by her side without hesitation and with unwavering determination.
sa hid behind Keith like a mouse that saw a cat when she saw Trevon. In a meek voice, she greeted, “Trevon…”
Keith’s attitude inexplicably improved after seeing Trevon and he explained everything that had just happened.
dow
Keith said, “I admit Lisa did something wrong, but it’s abominable that Selina just slapped her. How do you reckon we solve this matter?”
Trevon replied, “Uncle Keith, I think my wife did the right thing
Keith was speechless. He was so stunned that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Trevon answered without hesitation.
Keith fumed inwardly, You little brat, are you going to rebel?”
