Deacon turned to the secretary and instantly put on a pleasing face. “Please report to Mr. Alston that I have already punished her severely.”
“I will find a time later to cut ties with her, and from now on Talia’s actions are not related to me or the Renner family.”
The secretary looked at Deacon, who was anxiously trying to distance himself, with a blank expression.
Sure enough, the kind of child you have is reflected in the kind of father you had in the previous generation.
For several days in a row, Deacon beat Talia at home.
Talia visibly looked much haggard, with her arms and legs covered in countless wounds.
Every time she saw Deacon, her face was filled with fear and regret, far from the arrogance she had shown before.
In order to seek Greg’s forgiveness, Deacon sent him videos of him. whipping Talia every day, begging Greg to give the Renner family a way
out.
Greg always clicked to open and read, but he never replied.
A month later, he called Deacon and said, “Since you think Talia is of bad character and not worthy of being your daughter, I have found a foster daughter for you.”
Deacon, although somewhat unsure of what Greg was up to, could only

go along with his words: “Who does Mr. Alston think is suitable to be my daughter? I will definitely nurture her well.”
In the office, Greg looked at the documents in his hand and smirked, “In two days, I will deliver her to the Renner family.”
The secretary watched as Greg hung up the phone, puzzled as she approached. “Mr. Alston, someone as ruthless as Deacon is not fit to be a father. Why would you send a girl into such a dangerous situation?”
Greg pursed his thin lips slightly and handed her the documents in his hand.
The secretary took it and glanced through it, and she instantly realized.
Originally, Talia bullied not only Liora during middle school, but also another girl.
However, that girl was luckier than Liora. She went to college in Chicago after finishing high school, and after graduating, she opened several bars in Chicago.
After watching a live broadcast of the wedding scene online, the girl finally contacted Greg through various channels and asked him to help retaliate against Talia.
So, it was only then that Greg thought of this trick.
He arranged for the girl to become Deacon’s foster daughter, with her backing him up, Deacon dared not treat the girl badly.
As for Talia, she was determined to earn Deacon’s approval and affection. If she had found out that Deacon had adopted the female classmate who had bullied her in the past, and had given her the affection she had always longed for.

Given Talia’s jealous nature, she probably went crazy with anger.
When the girl entered the Renner family, she wanted to retaliate against Talia, and it was only a matter of time.
The secretary understood immediately and was just about to leave the office.
Greg stopped her, his voice low: “Did you find out where Liora is?”
The secretary pondered for a moment and reported in detail, “Our people only know that Ms. Calden went to New York, but they are not sure where exactly she went.‘
“There was something quite strange, several times when we were close to
finding out Ms. Calden’s whereabouts, the clues would inexplicably. disappear.”
Greg lowered his head, his dark eyes dimmed
Liora was determined not to see him again.
That evening, the Alston Group made an announcement to the public.
Early tomorrow morning, two high–end necklaces will be released in advance, named “Regret” and “Nostalgia“, and it will be announced that all proceeds will be used for the cause of ‘anti–campus bullying‘.
This move instantly reminded netizens of the previous wedding live
stream.
At that time, Greg’s regretful expression was clearly seen by the netizens.
So, netizens began to mock and ridicule: “Belated affection is cheaper than grass!”

“What about the wounds Liora suffered over the years? A girl who
sincerely gave her heart to you ended up being betrayed. Do you regret it now that you know?”
“From Liora’s perspective, I felt suffocated!”
I thought the Alston Group would delete the comments, but I didn’t expect Greg to reply to the netizens one by one with his own big account.
“I really didn’t know Talia could be so malicious, I am also a victim.”
After Liora came back, she could hit me and scold me, I would do whatever she wanted.”
“I sincerely begged her for forgiveness.”
No matter how prepared Greg was to apologize and seek forgiveness, he still couldn’t find out where Liora had
gone.
Soon, Greg gradually became decadent.
He didn’t eat or drink, and stayed in the hospital for nearly half a month.
Greg’s grandfather, Samuel Alston, learned the news and rushed back from overseas by plane that very night.
He looked at the thin Greg on the sickbed and asked the doctor with a serious face when he could be discharged.
The attending physician handed the examination results to Samuel and said tactfully, “I can’t cure Mr. Alston. His condition is a matter of the heart, perhaps even he himself is not aware of it. He fell in love with Ms. Çalden a long time ago.”
“In order to help Mr. Alston recover, he had to see a heart specialist.
Samuel frowned, he did try to contact Liora after returning to his country.
Just like Greg, his people always faced resistance just as they were about to find out Liora’s whereabouts.
Obviously, there was a large family in New York who did not want the Alston family to find Liora.
