Chapter 339 The Most Pitiful Regina
Regina burst into tears. “Are you even a man? You’re still defending her, even after she stormed into our house like a madwoman!”
Eric felt a headache coming on. He raised a hand to rub his brow, trying to calm Kelly down “Kelly, let go first. Let’s talk this through properly, okay?”
“Talk properly? Can a person have a reasonable conversation with a rabid dog?” Kelly lifted her hand and slapped him.
“Kelly!” Seeing Regina crying so hard her voice was hoarse, Eric could only step forward to
intervene.
“Kelly, let’s talk this out. I’ll make her apologize to you!” Eric anxiously called out to Regina. “Hurry up and apologize to her!”
Regina clutched her head. Her eyes were red from crying, but she still refused to back down. “Why should I apologize? I’m just stating the facts! Shane was born to Clarissa. How could she possibly treat him like her son? In the end, won’t she just leave everything to her biological child?”
Seeing that Regina was still being stubborn, Kelly slapped her again. “Do you think everyone is as cold–hearted as the Lynches, weighing even their own flesh and blood based on gender and closeness?”
Kelly pointed to Faye, who was hiding at the doorway of the maid’s room. “Faye is your biological daughter, isn’t she? Ever since you had a son, have you ever truly cared about her? Someone like you dares to call yourself a mother? Dares to judge others?
“You studied medicine too. Even if you only got through because of family connections, you should still know why Faye’s ear was permanently damaged!” Kelly grabbed Regina’s hair, forcing her to look at Faye.
“Did Faye ever tell you? It was Clarissa who left her outside in the rain with a high fever, making her condition worse!”
Faye’s eyes reddened, and she lowered her head in fear.
She had told her parents about this, but they didn’t believe her.
“A child making up nonsense. Clarissa… how could she possibly-” Regina refused to believe it. She hadn’t taken Faye’s words seriously before.
“She’s just young, not stupid!” Kelly turned to Eric. “You don’t believe your daughter either?”
Eric furrowed his brows. He believed it–but he was powerless.

Chapter 339 The Most Pitiful Regina
He was a coward.
In the Lynches, he had no say.
Eric clenched his fists tightly. His eyes filled with unwillingness and suppressed frustration.
For years, he had endured.
His guiding principle in life was that without a powerful family background, he had to endure, to wait for the right moment–the moment when he could strike with absolute certainty.
One must endure small grievances to achieve great plans. But Kelly couldn’t understand him. No one truly could.
Seeing Eric’s silence as acquiescence, Regina froze. She stared at him. “What do you mean … You believe what she said?”
Eric said nothing.
“This lunatic is just here to sow discord!” Regina shouted angrily.
“Clarissa could even lay hands on her son. To make Wade pity Shane, she drenched the child in cold water and left him out on the balcony in the freezing wind.” Kelly had no interest in meddling with the bond between the Lynch sisters, but since she was here today, she had to make everything clear.
“Faye is a good girl. If you can’t teach her well, then at least don’t lead her astray!” Kelly shoved Regina aside but didn’t do anything too extreme to her–after all, Faye was her daughter.
“Regina, think carefully about what you’ve done. And don’t ever let me hear you say those kinds of things to my son again. If I hear it again, I’ll confront you. Next time, I’ll tear your mouth apart.” Kelly turned to look at Casey, who was still crying on the side. “And you–watch your mouth.”
Casey shot Kelly a hateful glare but didn’t dare say anything more. After all, Kelly was a lunatic–provoking her might just bring disaster upon herself.
At the restroom entrance, the chubby boy sobbed, hiccupping and cowering in fear.
Kelly glanced at him and said threateningly, “Give the room back to Faye. As a guest, you should know your place. This is someone else’s home! Eat less and exercise more, or you’ll just get fatter. As a brother, it’s your responsibility to protect your sister. If you bully her again, be careful–you’ll end up looking like a pig.”
Frightened by Kelly, the chubby boy wailed even louder. “But she made Connor hit me…

Faye stuck her tongue out at the chubby boy. It felt so good to have someone backing her up.
Kelly cast a quick glance at Faye, realizing that this chubby boy had likely endured numerous harsh lessons in the past.
She cleared her throat and decided not to scare him any further. Let the kids handle their own problems.
“Kelly, what right do you have to make my son move out? Who do you think you are?” Casey snapped, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
“What right?” Kelly chuckled. “Not only do I have the right to make your son move out of that room, but I also have the right to kick your entire family out.”
Casey’s face flushed with anger, her neck stiff as if she wanted to argue back.
“Enough!” Eric raised a hand, rubbing his temples..
This house was his and Kelly’s marital home–each of them owned 50%. But when it came to the tangled finances between him and Kelly, things were too complicated. His mother had already taken Kelly’s parents‘ inheritance, all the family jewelry, his father–in–law’s collection of antiques, paintings, and fine liquor…
If Kelly really decided to settle accounts with him one by one, it would be a nightmare.
“You’re usually so sharp–tongued. But now that Casey is walking all over you and your kids, where’s all that attitude gone?” Kelly scoffed at Regina.
Regina fell silent. She didn’t know how to handle Casey. She looked down on Casey, but this house belonged to Eric. And Eric was far too biased toward his mother and sister.
If she wanted to remarry Eric, she had to accept Casey and his mother …
