East Coast Airport.

A private plane finally landed after a short while of hovering, escorted by dozens of fighter jets.

The airport was heavily guarded and full of armed soldiers!

Rumors spread all over the East Coast - a bigwig was coming.

This person was the one and only five-star general in Amerosia, the first Primus and, as more people

preferred to call him, Lord Death!

Even James Mester, the wealthiest man in East Coast, was shut out when he wanted to come to

receive him!

And the reason why Chris Shelby returned this time, was only to meet one person!

His wife!

The eldest daughter of the Jefferson family - Esther Jefferson!

...

Jefferson Manor.

Chris Shelby stood in front of the villa and seemed to have been lost in a flash of reminiscence.

Five years ago.

He fell victim in a family feud. He was kicked out of the wealthy Shelby family and ended up in the East

Coast, without any food or any financial support, like a stray dog!

Eventually, it was the Jeffersons who, as advised by a fortune teller, took him in and married their

eldest daughter Esther Jefferson to him.

On the next day of the wedding, Chris responded to the call of the country and resolutely joined the

army.

Now that five years had passed, he had been the Primus in Amerosia with an unparalleled status!

To make up for the guilt that year, Chris returned to the East Coast to find Esther Jefferson.

Chris stepped into the house.

However, he was almost instantly shocked by what he saw.

On the courtyard outside the villa.

There was a little girl about four or five years old. She looked so pale and thin, and obviously, she was

malnourished.

Most importantly.

A chain was placed around her neck.

She was like a dog lying on the ground.

Licking a broken bowl!

When he saw this, for some reason, Chris felt his heart tighten. His heart ached for the little girl.

“Sir, could you give me something to eat? I’m really hungry!”

The little girl raised her head and looked at Chris eagerly.

Chris hastily reached for a cookie from his pocket and handed it to her.

The little girl picked it up and devoured it.

“You unwanted bastard. How dare you beg in front of the Jefferson family! I am killing you today!”

At this time, a vicious middle-aged woman came out with a bamboo stick and started to beat the girl

continuously.

The little girl then was dodging and crying.

“Please... don’t hit me... I’m just really hungry... It hurts...”

When he saw this, a trace of anger appeared on Chris’s face.

For a moment, his heart seemed to be stung by something!

How could there be such a vicious person in this world?

“Stop!”

Chris walked over. He reached out to grab the bamboo stick of the middle-aged woman.

The woman looked at Chris with disdain, “Who the heck are you and how dare you meddle in my

business?”

“How could you bear to hurt such a little girl!”

When he looked at the bruised little girl, Chris’s heart was burning with anger.

“It’s none of your business! She’s just a sinful bastard of the Jefferson family. I can torture her however

I want. You are getting yourself in trouble if you dare to meddle!”

The middle-aged woman looked at Chris and said coldly.

Chris was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously, “A sinful bastard of the Jefferson family?

Whose daughter is she actually?”

The middle-aged woman sneered, “Whose daughter? Of course, her father is also a bastard! Everyone

in the East Coast knows! Everyone knows it!”

“Five years ago, Esther Jefferson, the eldest daughter of the Jefferson family, married a homeless man,

and the next day, the man ran away! Only this little bastard was left behind, and it had become a joke

of the whole East Coast ever since!”

When he heard it, Chris felt as if he was struck by lightning!

Five years ago!

A homeless man!

The eldest daughter of the Jefferson family!

So, this little girl was...

Chris looked at the little girl again, and a strong sense of familiarity came over him.

While he was the iron-boned Primus and the most important weapon of the country, his eyes were

moist...

When he thought of his daughter being beaten up so badly by these people, a burst of anger erupted

from the heart of Chris Shelby.

Snap!

After the crisp sound.

The chain around the little girl’s neck was instantly torn off by Chris.

He couldn’t imagine what life had been like for Esther and their daughter for the past five years.

Now even a servant of the Jefferson family dared to beat his daughter so badly. What a cruel life it was!

“How dare you treat my daughter like this - it is unforgivable!”

Snap!

Chris slapped the middle-aged woman on her cheek hard.

Ouch!

The woman let out a scream. Her cheek instantly turned red and swollen.

“Your daughter? You were that good-for-nothing son-in-law from five years ago?”

The middle-aged woman looked at Chris with disbelief!

Five years ago, the old Mr. Jefferson was terribly ill.

In order to bring the best luck to the old Mr. Jefferson, as advised by a fortune teller, the most neglected

eldest daughter in the family, Esther Jefferson, was forced to marry a homeless man. Everyone on East

Coast knew about this.

The most unbelievable thing was that this homeless man ran away the next day right after the wedding

night.

Now that five years had passed, that man had actually returned?

The little girl looked at Chris and said cautiously, “Sir, I want to find my mother...”

Chris was surprised for a moment, and then asked, “Where is your mother? Isn’t she at Jefferson

Manor?”

The woman covered her cheek and smiled sarcastically, “There’s nothing you can do even though you

are back now. Haha! You know what? Esther Jefferson is now probably busy pleasing the men at the

Fairies’ Secret, and how will she be able to take care of her daughter...”

“Shut your mouth!”

Chris couldn’t bear it anymore and he simply grabbed that woman and threw her out.

Bang!

With a loud bang, the woman fell heavily to the ground and fainted.

Chris looked terribly gloomy with obvious murderous intent written across his face.

The woman he had been thinking about for five years actually left their daughter behind and went to the

Fairies’ Secret to please other men. Was he really wrong about her?

Chris looked at his pale-faced and skinny daughter and asked distressedly, “What’s your name?”

The little girl looked at Chris and responded, “Sir, my name is Hope Jefferson.”

Hope Jefferson?

The name made Chris Shelby’s heart tingle even more.

Esther Jefferson, what were you hoping for actually?

Were you hoping to find a rich man as soon as possible and be well taken care of?

Chris fought back the pain in his heart and asked, “What about your mother? Why isn’t she with you?”

Hope opened her eyes wide and said, “Mom is busy making money. After Mom makes money, Hope

won’t go hungry. I can’t eat enough every day. Everyone bullies me, beats me every day, and doesn’t

give me food...”

When he heard what she said, Chris could not hold his tears back anymore.

This was his own daughter who had suffered so much.

As the father, Chris didn’t know about any of this. He thought he was a terrible person who didn’t

deserve to be a father at all!

Chris went through a lot of battles and wounds, but he never shed a tear.

But facing his daughter today, he burst into tears!

Men should barely shed tears unless they went through the worst sadness!

Chris continued, “What about your father?”

Hope lowered her head and said sadly, “I haven’t seen my dad since I was born. Everyone says I am

just a sinful bastard without a father. I have asked my mum where my dad is?”

“But she’s always crying, and she always refuses to give me an answer. I know my mum must feel so

sad, so I just stop asking then.”

Chris asked, “Can I take you to your mother? Let’s go.”

“I don’t think it’s a good idea,” Hope shook her head. “My mum says I shouldn’t go with strangers.”

”I’m not a stranger. I am your father... your father’s friend.”

The truth was on the tip of his tongue, but then he thought better of it.

Chris didn’t think he deserved to be called father!
