Chapter 281: 0281 Shirk Responsibility_1

What right does the Wood Family have?

This question was not only posed by Felicia Frost but also loomed in the hearts of the Wood Family members themselves.

Ever since the incident during the day, turmoil had swept through the whole Wood Family, including their enterprise.

Countless people called David Wood, inquired Daniel Wood, even Carol Sean at home received a barrage of calls from old acquaintances.

Some congratulated without knowing the full story, others took pleasure in their misfortune.

How could the Wood Family have lost someone?

And to make things worse, it was Ellen Young, the most important of all!

Who would have thought, who could have known, that a girl once considered inconsequential, thought incapable of stirring trouble, merely someone who would be recognized years later, would amount to much?

Who would have guessed she’d grow up to be a national academician, a world-class scientist revered and worshipped by countless people?

When David Wood returned to the Wood Family’s home, his face was covered with a layer of deathly pallor.

His complexion was visibly terrible.

Normally domineering and overbearing, Carol Sean also knew the gravity of this issue when she saw David Wood’s complexion and dared not utter a word.

Olivia Johnson was also silent, she had called Felicia Frost in the afternoon but prevented Lucy Wood from answering, and even got a scolding from Felicia Frost, after which Olivia Johnson found herself blocked, she was furious internally but helpless.

She wanted to go find Lucy Wood.

But even if she found Lucy Wood, then what?

Just as Felicia Frost had said, if Ellen Young didn’t come back, what could they do?

At the Wood Family’s dining table, there was a deathly silence.

No one dared to speak carelessly.

Daisy Wood was also shocked today, she had just returned home and unexpectedly saw such a startling news piece online.

Her sister, her second sister, was actually a world-class scientist!

At just twenty-four years old, she had reached a peak many people couldn’t dream of, so outstanding that it was unimaginable, standing where countless looked up to her.

That was her second sister.

In that moment, the last dependency in her heart completely collapsed, she finally understood what the Wood Family had lost, and realized how insignificant she must be in front of the other party, perhaps not even worth a speck of dust.

In the oppressive silence over the dining table, Daniel Wood still tremulously spoke up, "Dad, is it really impossible to have her come back to the Wood Family?"

Had he not opened his mouth, it would have been better; David Wood had been holding his bowl and eating properly until he could no longer restrain his furious temper, he hurled the bowl at Daniel Wood, his eyes ablaze with rage, "Tell me, how could she come back? Are you threatening her yourself? You wouldn’t even get close before you’d be crushed by the people around her!"

The bowl hit Daniel Wood squarely on the chest, causing him some pain. Daniel Wood dodged slightly and clenched his teeth from the discomfort.

Olivia Johnson was startled by the commotion and everyone was somewhat afraid in the face of David Wood’s rage.

Seeing her son hit, Carol Sean immediately felt a surge of pain and couldn’t help but say, "This has nothing to do with Daniel, who knew that girl would..."

"You’re still talking!"

David Wood turned his furious outburst towards her, "It’s all because of you, you wretched old hag, and you still dare to talk, ’that girl’, who are you calling ’that girl’? Do you know who she is? Do you realize what she represents? With just one word, she could make our Wood Family disappear from Water City, the ’good deeds’ you all have done, if it weren’t for the casual way you dealt with things back then, it never would have come to this! And you still have the face to speak!"

Carol Sean, scolded by him, stammered, "Who could have known this would happen? It was still her mother who insisted on sending Ellen Young away back then, saying she couldn’t bear to see her depressive state."

She hurried to shift the blame.
