Karen sneered. “So what if she’s my biological daughter? I treated her with all my heart and soul, but what about her? How did she treat me?

“She turned her back on me and colluded with you people to throw me behind bars for the sake of a sister who’s not related to her and a bastard like you!

“Since she’s heartless to me, why should I care about her? Charlotte... Hah, she’s just a shameless bitch in my eyes!” Karen yelled furiously.

It seemed that she had been holding a grudge against Charlotte for not pleading for her. She was now full of resentment for her daughter.

Lucas frowned and was just about to say something, but Karen suddenly whipped out a 20-centimeter-long fruit knife from the side. Charlotte could soon be seen on the phone screen.

!!

Charlotte was tied firmly to a chair in an ordinary room with white walls. There was a piece of gray fabric stuffed in her mouth.

At this moment, her face was red from extreme anger, and there was immense disbelief and horror in her eyes.

Charlotte never imagined that her mother would collude with someone to kidnap her and even call her a shameless bitch.

Charlotte looked at the woman in front of her, whose face should be familiar but was now terrifyingly distorted beyond recognition.

Is this woman in front of me really my biological mother? Is she the person I called Mom for more than two decades? Charlotte was full of despair.

Seeing Karen take out the fruit knife and walk toward Charlotte, Lucas immediately called out anxiously, “Karen, even a beast won’t eat its own child. What are you doing?”

“Hah, what am I doing? Of course I’m going to take revenge on you guys!” Karen smiled sinisterly as she placed the fruit knife in her hand against Charlotte’s fair and tender skin and ordered Lucas, “Lucas Gray, I want you to get on your knees right now! Otherwise, I’ll slash this bitch’s face!”

Hearing this, both Lucas and Charlotte were stunned!

Neither of them expected that Karen would slash her daughter’s face with a knife in order to take revenge!

A hysterical murderous intent surged in Lucas’s heart.

Seeing that Lucas didn’t move, Karen bellowed hysterically, “Why are you still standing there? I told you to get down on your knees. Didn’t you hear me? Hurry up and kneel!”

Her hand was trembling incessantly. The sharp blade of the knife immediately cut a thin slit on Charlotte’s face, and blood trickled down.

Karen had actually wounded Charlotte!

Lucas’s heart tensed up, and he dropped to his knees without hesitation.

Bang!

The sound of his knees knocking against the concrete floor was extremely clear.

Seeing Lucas really kneeling, Karen immediately laughed with pleasure and said smugly, “Hahahaha! Lucas Gray, I bet you never thought you’d end up in such a situation today! Haha!

“Weren’t you very arrogant toward me in the past? You ignored everything I said and even made my daughters stand on your side. They don’t even care about me anymore!

“I begged you not to send me to jail and did everything I could to convince you, but how did you treat me?

“You threw me into prison without mercy and caused me to suffer for an entire month in that hellhole! I will definitely make you pay for it!

“Hahaha, look at you now. You’re just like a dog kneeling on the floor and obeying my orders. You have to do whatever I tell you to do! Are you angry now? Do you want to kill me? But you have no choice but to watch me torture her and obey my orders!

“Because as long as you still care about this little bitch’s life, you have to obey me! Hahaha, this feels wonderful!”

Karen laughed hysterically with a proud look.

Karen was full of indescribable pleasure after being able to make Lucas kneel in front of her.

During the days she was in prison, Karen felt like she was in a living hell. Not only were the food and living conditions extremely shabby, but she even had to slog her guts out doing hard labor for ten hours every day before she could return to her tiny cell.

For Karen, who had never worked or done any hard labor in her life, it was a complete nightmare. The most laborious work she has ever done was household chores.

Furthermore, the people in the women’s prison were real prisoners, and some had even been convicted of murder. They were all extremely disgusted with the pampered housewife Karen and would often order her around. Being in prison had put Karen on the verge of going crazy.

But she had never reflected on her actions and mistakes, nor had she ever thought about why she had been sent to prison. Instead, she felt that it was Lucas’s, William’s, Cheyenne’s, and Charlotte’s fault.

So during her days in prison, her mind became increasingly twisted, and she was full of hatred for everyone, including her biological daughter, Charlotte!

If not for Lucas’s ruthlessness and insistence on sending her to prison and her two daughters and William’s failure to save her, she wouldn’t have ended up in this state today.

But without a doubt, Lucas was the person she hated the most!

She dreamed of the day she could trample Lucas under her feet and destroy him as she pleased.

And now, Karen, whom Jace had saved, finally had the opportunity!

Seeing the scene of Lucas kneeling without hesitation and hearing what Karen, Charlotte immediately burst into tears.

Although she still didn’t know Lucas’s true identity or how terrifying his power was, she knew that he was definitely not an ordinary person and that his strength was beyond her imagination.

Lucas had always been an extremely proud person, and Charlotte had never seen him bowing down to anyone.

But Lucas actually kneeled in such a humiliating manner in order to prevent Karen from hurting her. Charlotte was touched beyond words.

Her biological mother had cut her face with a fruit knife and almost ruined her appearance, which most girls cared about the most.

But she wasn’t biologically related to Lucas at all and was just his sister-in-law, yet he was willing to swallow his pride and kneel on the floor!

At this moment, Charlotte had too many things to say to Lucas. She wanted to tell him to stop kneeling, but because of the cloth in her mouth, she couldn’t say a word. All she could do was whimper helplessly with tears all over her face.

Kneeling on the floor, Lucas clenched his fists and said with a straight face, “Karen, I know you hate me. Just come at me and kill me. You should know very well that I’m with Jace now, so you can come over whenever you want.

“Don’t you think you’re being ridiculous by threatening me with your biological daughter’s life? Or...

“Don’t you even have the guts to face me?” Lucas said scornfully, deliberately provoking her.
