The Clutches Of Hell Novel

Chapter 113

Victoria interrupted her directly; her eyes were tired and lifeless. “Enough.”

“Victoria.” Gabrielle was still trying to convince Victoria. “Think about it. Since you can’t leave Delta club anyway, these people are your colleagues. Your life would be more difficult if you offend them—”

Halfway speaking, Gabrielle suddenly covered her mouth and said apologetically, “I’m sorry.”

“You are right. There’s nothing to be sorry for.” Victoria raised her gaze to look at Gabrielle and whispered, “But what should I do? I just don’t feel like forgiving them.”

After tremendous hesitation, Gabriella finally answered, “Think about it first. If you don’t want to, I’ll refund them.”

Just as Victoria was about to agree, the dormitory door was kicked open with a bang. Glen and Denise, the two people who shouldn’t be here, stood at the door.

Both of their faces were red; Glen was flushed red with anger while Denise was sobbing till her eyes were red.

Seeing the two of them, Gabrielle felt her eyes light up as she quickly stood up and greeted the two cautiously, “Mr. Coleman, Mrs. Coleman. What are you—”

Before she could finish speaking, Glen walked past her and slapped Victoria right across the face.

Gabrielle’s red lips parted slightly, petrified by this scene.

However, the slap didn’t land on Victoria’s face. She stood barefoot on the ground and grabbed his hand that was in the air before saying faintly, “Mr. Coleman, is this how you greet people? Is the

elegance that you portray to the public just for show?”

It was hard to imagine that this exact man was the one who’d spoil her rotten. No matter how absurd the things she did to chase Christian were, Glen would laugh it off and never put the blame on her.

Now that she thought about it, it might not be an act of doting. Maybe he had long decided to groom her and marry her off into the Thatcher Family. Otherwise, if he really loved her as a daughter, how could he cut ties with her as soon as something happened?

“Let go!” Glen roared as he tried to shake her grip off to give her a proper slap.

However, Victoria was strong. Not only was he unable to continue his slap, but it was also even difficult for him to retract his hand. This made her sneer. “Let go and allow you to slap me? Sorry, but I’m no fool.”

“You—” Glen gasped in anger as he pointed at her with his free hand. “How did we raise such a shameless, unscrupulous daughter like you?!”

Although Victoria had convinced herself not to keep her hopes up for her father, hearing that straight from his mouth still brought pain to her heart.

Then, licking her dry lips, she said, “If I remember correctly, Mr. Coleman, you kicked me out of the Coleman Family two years ago. Strictly speaking, I’m no longer a part of the Coleman Family.”

Hearing this, he merely stared at the other party in fury because he was at a loss for words. On one side, Gabrielle was watching the scene with a blank mind. She chewed on her lip as her eyes darkened as if she was trying to hold herself back.

Usually, Victoria would be too scared of saying things that might anger Glen in fear that he might get a heart attack. However, this time, seeing how she managed to provoke him to the point that he was

speechless with anger, the subtle sense of revenge made her feel both pain and satisfaction.

Then, she looked directly at him and continued, “Also, since, Mr. Coleman, you don’t want a shameless, unscrupulous daughter like me, I, too, don’t want a two-faced, selfish, ruthless, and vain father that would only think for himself!”

She did not even stop to catch a breath as she rambled on a long list of Glen’s traits.

Slap!

Denise rushed over with reddened eyes and slapped Victoria on the face. “Let go of your dad and apologize right now. Is this what a daughter should say to her father?”

“I didn’t think that I’d be slapped today.” Victoria did not expect her gentle and timid mother to come up and slap her. This made her laugh. Then, she chucked Glen’s hand away. She started to tear up, but she quickly held them back as if they had never appeared.

She was so strong that Glen, unprepared for the sudden swing, staggered a few steps back and bumped into the table behind him.

The legs of the table rubbed against the ground, making a loud squeaking sound. The things on the table tinkled to the ground, and some even fell onto him.

This hurt his back, but his first reaction was to look at Gabrielle next to him, ashamed and angry.

“Glen!” Denise’s face changed as she hurried over to help her husband. “Are you okay? Did you get hurt? Do you want to go to the hospital?”

As she spoke, tears began to drip down her face. In the past, Victoria would have been distressed if she were to see this, but right now, all she felt in her heart was a wave of disappointment.

Glen held the edge of the table with one hand and the other on his chest as he gasped for breath. His heavy breathing sounded like bellows. “Y-You rebellious child! After staying in prison for two years, instead of repenting, you tried to seduce Christian and were thrown out naked! Our family name has been tainted by you, you disgrace! Cough! Cough, cough, cough! Cough, cough!”

He pounded on his chest and coughed as if he was about to cough his lungs out.

However, Victoria just smiled sarcastically. “The main point is that I was thrown out naked, isn’t it? If I succeed in seducing him, you’d be on your knees begging for me to go home, am I right?”novelxo.com fast update Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

So this is why they showed up here today! Ha!

Glen’s face turned purple from this sentence as he shook his finger at Victoria, his eyes bursting into flames. “You—cough, cough!”

“Glen, quickly! Take your pill!” Denise trembled and took out a vial, putting it to his lips. Then, she habitually ordered, “Tori, quickly pour a glass of warm water for your father.”

Victoria stood in place. She sat down and said, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Coleman, but there’s no water here for Mr. Coleman.”

“Tori, how can you still be petty at this point?” Denise turned her head to look at Victoria with tears streaming down her red, swollen eyes.

Before Victoria could even reply, Glen took the pill that was way too big from Denise and popped it into his mouth. “I don’t want to drink her water as well. It’s disgusting!”

“Mr. Coleman, Mrs. Coleman, you didn’t even bother to ask why Victoria did what she did. The first thing you do when you come here is to beat her, point fingers at her, and scold her. Don’t you think

you’ve gone too far?!” Gabrielle couldn’t bear to stand and watch anymore as she stood in front of the two with a darkened face.

Victoria tilted her head and glanced at Gabrielle with a hint of surprise in her eyes. Victoria did not expect Gabrielle would stand up for her like this.

“This is our family business; you wouldn’t understand.” Although Glen was red from anger and exasperated by Gabrielle’s words, he still had some self-control. He spoke gently without losing his temper.

However, Denise was dissatisfied with what Gabrielle said. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and suddenly retorted, “It’s no wonder that our Tori, who would never talk back to us, is now speaking so aggressively. Are you the one that encourages her to do this to us?”

Denise really couldn’t accept that her daughter, who used to want to be coddled, was now looking at her like an enemy.

Gabrielle’s face darkened even more. Although she wanted to swear at them, because they were a renowned family and were Victoria’s parents, she held herself back.

“What I do has nothing to do with her.” Victoria frowned. “Please, leave. I don’t welcome you two here.”
