“Didn’t you ask him what he did?”
Bonita Shen squinted at her stepmother and asked casually, without any expression on her face.
“What could he do? He is your brother. How could you embarrass him in public?” her tone increased. She was discontent.
“Where is Zack? I know he’s home. Let him come out.” Bonita Shen asked directly and thoughtfully. She ignored her stepmother’s nagging.
“What are you looking for him? Bonita, he lost his face because of you. Now, what else do you want to do?”
The stepmother was alert.
“He knows best what he did. Let him out. Since he dares to do it, better not let him act like a coward now.”
Bonita Shen sneered while looking at the railing on the second floor. She saw Zack Shen leaning against the railing, smiling like an idiot.
“Get your ass down here!” Bonita Shen yelled at him.
“Language, Bonita! Is that you talk to your brother? You don’t act like a sister at all.” Baron Shen snapped. He yelled back at Bonita Shen with a bad complexion.
“I don’t act like a sister? Well, let me ask. Does he act like a younger brother at all? He stole some samples of the WAA Mask from the factory and pitted Dekuan Chou against me!”
Bonita Shen sneered. She was so done being nice.
“Where are the samples now?”
“My dear sister, we are family. If the WAA Mask is yours, doesn’t that mean that it’s mine too? Also, I only took a few boxes of samples.”
Zack Shen didn’t care at all. He went downstairs and walked toward Mrs. Shen. He snuggled up like a big baby and sat down next to her, looking at Bonita Shen innocently.
Baron Shen frowned. He didn’t believe Zack Shen.
But he didn’t say anything either. Instead, he was impressed.
Bonita Shen was a woman. She would sometimes marry in the future.
Now, Zack Shen was the only one to inherit the family business.
In any case, Baron Shen would naturally favor Zack Shen.
“Bonita, I’ve already learned about the WAA Mask, but it’s just some cosmetics, no? Even if it’s a good product, can it compare with those big brands? Your brother took a few samples. What can your brother do with those few samples if he takes them?” Baron Shen looked at Bonita Shen with a dignified face. He was pretending to be serious and trying to make her retreat.
He and Bonita Shen were separated for a period of time, and now, he didn’t recognize her at all.
“Yes, the WAA Mask has just been produced. Since it is nothing in your eyes, please, ask my dear brother to return the sample to me immediately. You know, my company is tiny. We can’t afford such a loss.”
Bonita Shen looked at Zack Shen, calmly ignoring her father’s question. She noticed her stepmother’s eyes were burning with fire.
From their perspective, Bonita Shen disregarded them as elders by not listening to their words at all.
This was intolerable for the two people who had been hailing in a high position for a long time.
“Bonita, that’s enough. I’m still in charge of the family. If I say forget it, then you should forget it. Stop being unreasonable! If there is nothing more, get your ass out of here!” Baron Shen was furious. He slammed his hand on the coffee table.
He suddenly stood up and glared at Bonita Shen. He gave his order like he was urging a peasant to leave.
After the loud noise he made, the living room fell silent.
The nanny had long been hiding, and when she heard these words, she was secretly surprised.
Mrs. Shen and Zack Shen exchanged glances and smiled.
Bonita Shen was still standing in the same place.
She found that the man she called father for more than ten years very strange.
This was her first time to hear such words from Baron Shen.
He yelled and snapped at her in front of everyone?
This was also her home.
No matter how strong she was, she still felt sad.
After her mother died and her father remarried, the whole family kept their distance from her.
At that moment, Bonita Shen secretly vowed to make a name for herself and let Baron Shen knew that his daughter was not a dispensable person, let alone a burden.
Therefore, Bonita Shen devoted herself to work over the years and made Mingyang Corp what it was today.
“Baron, you’re so rude. Bonita is just a girl. If people hear what you said just now, they will think that my son and I cannot accept her.”
Mrs. Shen knew that the situation had come to a dead end. She smiled and walked approaching Baron Shen. She held her hand out and kept appeasing his chest.
But, Bonita Shen was not dumb. She knew immediately that this woman was up to no good.
“She doesn’t act like a lady at all! I don’t know if she can marry at all!”
It seemed that Mrs. Shen’s appeasement worked. Baron Shen had calmed down a lot, but he was still looking at Bonita Shen angrily.
“Oh, Dad, there is something you don’t know. I agree; my dear sister cannot marry at all. I heard that she had a gigolo in the company and made him the head of the WAA Mask project.”
“She’s in a hurry to get the samples back. I’m afraid she did all this for that man. What’s his name again? Abe Chou?”
Mr. and Mrs. Shen was shocked.
They didn’t know anything about this. No one had told them yet. Now, when they first heard it, they thought that Zack Shen was cracking a joke, “Zack, we’re not in the mood for jokes.”
Mrs. Shen walked over and tried to stop Zack Shen.
She knew very well that Baron Shen had a high tolerance for his children, but still, he had a limit.
He valued honesty. His family members shouldn’t do anything that went against morality and ethics.
Even though Bonita Shen didn’t win Baron Shen’s heart, they were still father and daughter. Baron Shen still had his limit.
If this were not true, Baron Shen would be very likely to get angry at Zack Shen. Mrs. Shen didn’t want this to happen.
Sure enough, after Zack Shen finished, Baron Shen’s face turned red, “Is this true?”
Baron Shen asked in a low and trembling voice.
“Of course, it’s true. The whole city knows it. I’m afraid you have no idea at all. Look.”
Zack Shen took a tabloid and showed his father.
Mr. and Mrs. Shen saw an intimate photo of Bonita Shen and a young man on the cover.
“You’re so shameless! You ruin my reputation!”
Suddenly, there was a loud and crisp sound.
Baron Shen slapped Bonita Shen on the face. He angrily denounced her.
The slap left red finger marks on her face.
