Chapter 888 A Father’s Revenge
Wynter was merciless. Some people would never think that they were wrong and would only admit their mistakes because they were afraid. They were afraid that their reputation would be ruined.
Ethel’s son was the culprit. Yet, she made the victim take the brunt of gossip. All for his image and his job? Wynter was going to let everyone around them know what their family was like.
The police came to the neighborhood to arrest Mary and Ethel. At the same time, they tracked down her son, Gareth Kierson. Since Gareth worked in education, this matter blew up.
Gareth was talking about how people nowadays did not like to work hard and how the young people no longer liked to take part in any activities when the police barged him and pinned him to his desk.
He was arrested under the charge of indecent sexual assault on women. Initially, the people around him could not believe their eyes.
Gareth was such a gentle, scholarly–looking man. How could he sexually assault women?
His colleagues went up to talk to the police. “Sir, have you gotten the wrong man? Gareth has never received any complaints from the student’s parents.”
The crimes there were usually about bribery, but ever since the crackdown came from on top, their
bosses had told them to be more careful about it.
No one would be silly enough to receive bribes at such a time since there was still an ongoing suicide case involving a teenage girl. Everyone had their eyes on them.
They would not mess around. Gareth surely knew that too. When the police found photos that Gareth had taken of other women from an embarrassing angle, the entire office was in an uproar!
Since he was in education, this matter was even worse when the news got out. Many media outlets swarmed the place, all wanting to know what had happened.
His bosses had to hold an emergency meeting as well. The people in his neighborhood were talking among themselves.
“I heard Mary was taken away.
“What? Who did they offend?”
“Mary was only spreading gossip. Did they also take the child away?”
she gossiping about the Wilson family? I was thinking about his daughter’s incident…”

Budd’s colleagues had just arrived with a fruit basket, wanting to apologize to him, when they heard other people talking about him. They knew that he had started his revenge.
They looked at each other and quickly headed upstairs.

Ethel was tugging at the sleeves of a police officer, begging him, “Sir, please have mercy on my family! We still have a young child!”
Chapter 888 A Fathers Revenge
“Ma’am, we only work with the evidence that we have. Your daughter–in–law has said too many things that she shouldn’t have. She has badly affected the victim’s family,” the police officer patiently explained.
Ethel still had her grandchild in her arms. “Sir, their family’s daughter killed herself. It has nothing to do
with us.
“My daughter–in–law just doesn’t know how to filter her words. Who would have expected that their daughter would be so weak as to kill herself just because of a few words? If I knew better, my daughter–in- law would never have said it!”
It was truly hard to pity a person like Ethel. The police did not want to continue talking to her either.
Seeing the family next door being taken away, Budd realized that not only did he not protect his daughter, but he also did not protect his wife.
All these people who gossiped would never admit that they were wrong. How dare they call her daughter
weak?
Budd’s resentment returned. He looked at Wynter. “Ms. Quinnell, I’m sure you heard what they said.”
