Chapter 155: Chapter 156: It Seems Like She’s a Plague God

"Yeah, Dad, you really need to take good care of your body. Otherwise, Mom and I will worry about you."

Benjamin Lawrence looked at the mother and daughter with concern on their faces, then glanced at Joanna, who had a cold expression and no trace of concern in her eyes. He sneered, "Fortunately, I have you two by my side. Who else would care about me? It seems that I’ve raised a thankless wolf. If I had known she would never appreciate my efforts, I would have given her away earlier."

"Even a dog knows to repay its master’s kindness, but this daughter I’ve pampered since childhood is even less sensible than an animal!"

Annie tried to mediate, "Dad, don’t be angry. Joanna does care about you, she’s just not good at expressing her feelings. See, she’s come home to see you now."

Annie had deliberately provoked Joanna when she saw Benjamin just now.

All to make Joanna lose her temper.

The more aggressive and insensitive Joanna appeared, the more sensible and well-behaved Annie would seem in comparison.

Thus, Benjamin’s disappointment and disgust towards Joanna would only deepen.

Annie was well aware that the father-daughter bond between Benjamin and Joanna, nurtured over so many years, was not something that could be destroyed overnight.

But as long as Benjamin’s dislike for Joanna increased bit by bit, eventually, it would turn into complete disgust and disappointment.

By then, they wouldn’t be bothered about any father-daughter affection anymore.

After hearing Annie’s words, Benjamin’s anger only grew, and he couldn’t help but scoff, "She’s not here to see me. It seems that except for her mother, no one else matters to her."

"Exactly," Rose Liall sneered. "Sir Darren, you’ve wasted your love on this daughter. You’ve always treated her like a treasure, but has she ever treated you like a father?"

"When you were sick a while back, I called her to come home, but she didn’t. Annie was busy with work, but as soon as she heard you were sick, she flew back from abroad the next day to see you."

"Think about it, which of these two daughters really cares about you?"

Benjamin’s face was already not in good spirits.

Upon hearing Rose’s words, his expression darkened further, and his disappointment with Joanna grew deeper: "You haven’t been home for two whole months. Every time you come back, do you have to cause chaos in this family?"

Joanna had known for a long time that she had no place in this family.

She also knew very well that the current Benjamin was no longer the man he used to be.

Now, his heart only had room for Annie and her mother.

They were his wife and daughter, his true family.

And her...

She was just an ungrateful wolf in his eyes.

However, despite this, when she met Benjamin’s angry and disappointed gaze, her heart still ached a little.

She couldn’t help but feel a bit sad.

At this moment, she profoundly and genuinely realized that there was truly no place for her in this family anymore.

She bore the surname Lawrence, but no one in the Lawrence family regarded her as their own.

Even her once most beloved father, Benjamin.

Benjamin’s words were filled with blame and disgust, as if she were a plague, causing chaos in the family whenever she came home.

Joanna glanced at the satisfied faces of Annie and Rose Liall before turning back to Benjamin, a mocking smile on her lips: "I didn’t know I had such power, to cause turmoil in this family."
