Sweet Divorce novel Chapter 16

Outside of the Brown's house.

Rita got out of the taxi, hurried into the villa, and pulled the door open.

When she looked at the living room, she saw her father, Noah Brown, being held down by the servant, and Mason Brown, Noah’s brother, was beating her father's back hard with a stick.

Her father, such a strong man, could not help gasping due to the hard whack.

Rita could not help crying for her father and cried out subconsciously, "Dad!"

"Rita?" he turned his head when hearing her voice, shocked, and then stared at his wife Zoe Duncan. "I have told you several times that do not tell this to Rita and do not let her back. Why didn't you listen to me? " he said angrily.

"Dear, it's not me. I didn't tell her." Zoe shook her head in injured tones.

They loved their daughter so much that they were afraid of her being beaten by her grandma. If Rita were back home. That's why they chose to suffer this spite from the Nash family for Rita.

That's also the reason why Noah did not resist when Amelia was beating him. He thought that as long as she were venting her rage, she would not trouble his daughter anymore.

Rita was nothing in others' eyes, but in Noah's eyes, Rita was always his child, and he held the belief that she would become good.

At the same time, Mason lifted the stick again.

Rita's pupils suddenly dilated, and she quickly jumped up to take the whack for her father.

The pain in her back was so intense that she nearly fainted, and the palms of her hands, which had been dry, were now wet with cold sweat, and she fell limp beside her father.

"Rita, my sweetie!" He hugged her lean body with his heart bled.

He was looking at Rita, held back the tears in his eyes, and said to Rita gently, "Silly girl. Why you did such a silly thing? Your dad is a man. It's not a big deal for me to be whacked. Are you alright?"

"Everything is okay, dad. It doesn't hurt." Rita looked at her loving father and shook her head.

"My dear! My sweetie!" Zoe cried.

Zoe pushed away her sister-in-law, who had been pulling her, and then hugged her two loved people with tears in her eyes.

She shivered to touch the place where Rita was beaten, but in fear of hurting her daughter, she held her hand back and said to Rita, "My sweetie, you shouldn't have been back. You shouldn't do this."

"Dad, mom, don't cry. I'm fine. It doesn't hurt at all." Rita said.

Rita gently wiped away the tears in her mom's eyes, and smiled brightly to prove that she was okay and everything was fine.

Because they were hugging together, Mason could not find the opportunity to whack Noah. Rita took the opportunity to snatch the stick from his hand.
