Chapter 1591 - 1581: Wherever the Gaze Falls, There Lies Eternity: Reap What You Sow

"Axel, bring out the family law!"

With a sharp command, Axel the butler responded and brought two burly men in.

Glaring at the shrew who was tearing at his younger brother’s collar, Daxton Lancaster said sternly.

"Eva Hayes, wife of the Lancaster Family’s second branch, provokes trouble and disregards the family head and family rules. In accordance with the Lancaster Family’s third and fifth rules, you shall be flogged thirty strokes!"

"Daxton Lancaster, don’t go too far!" Atlas Lancaster and his three sons stood up almost simultaneously. Atlas Lancaster spoke harshly while Daemon Lancaster and his brothers glared angrily at Daxton Lancaster.

Joseph Lancaster had already been rescued from Eva Hayes’ grip by the butler—a young man of scholarly temperament now unable to describe his embarrassment.

His hair was disheveled, and there were visible scratches at the corners of his eyes and behind his ears.

Violet Zimmerman had her hands tightly twisted together under her abdomen, looking at her uncle’s anger and resentment in his eyes, and pursed her lips.

She knew he must have run a long distance again.

"Am I going too far?" Daxton Lancaster sneered and retorted, his eyes suddenly sharp, his tone fierce.

"As the family head, do I not have the right to enforce family law? As a man, should I not protect my relatives?

Previously, I turned a blind eye, only in the name of family affection. From today onward, anyone who dares to challenge Daxton Lancaster’s bottom line shall not escape my wrath!

Axel! Enforce the family law!"

"Yes, Family Head!" Axel bowed toward Daxton Lancaster and then gestured to the two subordinates behind him, "Take the second madam outside!"

"Daxton Lancaster, you can’t do this to me! I am your elder!"

Seeing two men holding her arms, Eva Hayes panicked, while Daxton Lancaster sat expressionlessly in the main seat with no intention of reconsidering.

Eva Hayes was already being dragged to the doorway by the two strong men, seeing Daxton Lancaster was serious, she started to curse vehemently.

"Daxton Lancaster, you wretched one, I curse your family to end, your children to be born without an anus..."

"Axel, add twenty more strokes!"

Eva Hayes’ foul curses touched his reverse scale, and the furious man ordered sternly once again.

"Yes, Family Head." Axel bowed again and then strode out.

"Dad, are you just going to sit back and let Daxton do as he pleases?" Atlas Lancaster approached the old lord to plead, his distressed demeanor seemingly showing great grievance suffered by their branch.

"Second brother, your wife brought this upon herself!" The old lord finally spoke, siding with the main branch.

"Grandfather, my mother is so old, how can she withstand so many strokes?" Daemon Lancaster also came over to plead for his mother.

"Yes, grandfather, please plead for my mother considering her age." Michael Lancaster spoke urgently.

Before the old lord could speak, Daxton Lancaster, sitting above, coldly smirked and said.

"Cousin, Michael, don’t worry, your mother will be fine. Wasn’t she quite lively when beating Joseph just now!"

Daemon Lancaster and his brothers glared at Daxton Lancaster discontentedly and continued pleading with the old lord.

"Grandfather, speak up, or my mother will be beaten to death!"

"Yes, grandfather, someone is exploiting power for personal gain, won’t you intervene?"

"Grandfather, say something!"

Eva Hayes’ cries came loudly from outside the door, shocking Violet Zimmerman, while Bodhi Lancaster and his wife remained expressionless in their chairs with no intention of interceding.
