Chapter 873 At about quarter past six, the man who heard about Eleanor getting hit by his grandfather came strutting in from outside the castle, long legs moving fast.
He had a whole squad of bodyguards trailing behind him, and they all lined up behind the folks from the Laurence family who were sitting on the couch.
The scene was like they were there to wipe them out. The distant relatives of the Laurence family got a bit antsy and shrunk back Arlene just scoffed and sneered, âWhatâre you up to?â
Bemard didnât even glance at her, walking straight to Eleanor and checking out her arm. The bright red mark of a cane on her exposed arm, was indented into her skin, it was clear that a lot of force had been used Bernard tenderly touched it, and Eleanor winced in pain. It wasnât an act â it really hurt likely a bone injury.
When she pulled back her arm, Bernardâs heart ached too. âAidyn, get a doctor, now!
T Aidyn agreed, whipping out his phone and calling Liana, asking her to bring an orthopedic doctor ASAP Bernard tenderly ran his hand through Eleanorâs hair, his voice filled with determination. I will seek justice on your behalf.â
Having finished speaking, he stood tall and fixed a piercing gaze upon the old man You were responsible for this, werenât you?â
Blake exhibited no shame as he unabashedly admitted, âSo what if I was? Are you going to retaliate?â
As the elder and Bernardâs grandfather, he saw no issue with disciplining his wife, especially considering her connection to the Pine family.
Bernard emitted a cold laugh, his icy gaze shifting towards Scott. âBring me the card Without hesitation, Scott handed over the fractured walking stick to Bernard.
Bernard took hold of it and tossed it before Blake. âWhichever hand you used, use that one to strike yourself. Do it on your own accord.â

Blake and the rest of the Laurence family were left in stunned silence. Arlene was the first to regain her composure, her words filled with indignation, âHe is your grandfather! Are you truly going to let him harm himself over an enemy? Do you not possess any respect for your elders?â
Eleanor attempted to pull Bernard back upon hearing these words, but he firmly held her hand and settled down beside her, crossing his long legs.
Tilting his sharply chiseled chin, he locked eyes with Blake and uttered with a piercing gaze, âShe is my wife, and he struck her. Does that demonstrate any respect for me?â
Arlene, unable to keep her cool, pointed at Eleanor and accused, âGrandpa knew sheâs from the Pine family and was worried she had ulterior motives for marrying you. He just scolded her a bit and she argued back, saying it had nothing to do with her. Clearly, she was the one being disrespectful, thatâs why grandpa hit her!â
The Laurence family chimed in, âYeah, you canât just ignore that. She was the one bang disrespectful to Blake first. Canât an elder discipline anymore?â
Eleanor, who was initially going to let it go, closed her mouth when she heard this. Her clear eyes stared straight at Blake.
In her view, even though the old man never accepted her, he was not a stubborn person who couldnât tell right from wrong. But to her surprise, he chose to remain silent.
Luckily, Scott, who witnessed the whole thing, stepped forward, âBullshit. The lady was always polite. It was Blake who couldnât handle his anger and didnât even let her finish talking before he hit her!â
Arlene wanted to argue back, but Scottâs next words shut her up, âEnough talking. There are security cameras all around the castle. We should check the footage before saying anything else!â
