“Alright, have you made enough of a scene? Come home with me.”
“I won’t…” Mrs. Walker struggled as he pulled her along. As they passed April, she shot her a venomous glare.
April kept her head down, her pale lips pressed tightly together, saying nothing. Through blurry eyes, she watched Mr. Walker drag his wife away.
Mr. Walker took his wife back to the Walker family estate.
Along the way, Mrs. Walker continued to shout and curse, her insults towards April growing increasingly vile.
He threw her onto the living room sofa and, having reached his limit, slapped her across the face.
The sharp sound was followed by an abrupt silence.
Mrs. Walker clutched her cheek, staring at him in disbelief.
“You… you hit me? You hit me for that woman! Vincent, you bastard!”
“What do you know?” Mr. Walker's face was ashen with rage as he pointed a finger at her. “Do you have any idea that April comes from a family of police officers? Do you know how much she can do for me? Do you realize that if it wasn't for her sharp instincts, for her discovering that undercover cop, I would have been finished seven years ago! All you do is live a life of luxury. If you can’t help me, fine, but must you cause me more trouble?”
His tirade left Mrs. Walker speechless, able to do nothing but sob quietly.
“Dad, Mom, what are you arguing about?” Yolanda came down from upstairs, looking at them with concern.
“It’s nothing, just a small disagreement,” Mr. Walker said, his tone softening at the sight of his only daughter.
“Mom, Dad, please don’t fight. You’re scaring me,” Yolanda said timidly.
“Alright.” Mr. Walker patted Yolanda's head. “You should spend some time with your mother lately. Take her out, help her clear her mind, and stop her from overthinking…”
