Chapter 621
Charlie suddenly slammed his fork on the table. "You think I'm giving you face by letting you talk this much trash
about me? | don't believe this! Every month I give you my salary, and somehow there's not a penny left? Get out
all the money you've been hiding right now!"
Mrs. Wesler hadn't expected such a violent reaction. She froze, looking to her in- laws for help, but they
continued eating without changing expression, as if they were used to such scenes.
Sarah took another bite of vegetables, avoiding Zachary's eyes and staring at his hand instead. Those long, well-
defined fingers holding the fork hadn't paused despite the argument.
Then Charlie slapped his wife hard across the face, knocking her to the floor.
Only then did Zachary move to stop Charlie, while Sarah helped Mrs. Wesler up. Mrs. Wesler looked at him in
disbelief. "Charlie! You gamble away all our money and then blme! You hit me! Heaven will punish you for
this cruelty!"

repeatedly.
Mrs. Wesler finally stopped arguing and began pleading, "Charlie, | won't dare again, please stop hitting me!"
By now, Charlie was beyond reason. He kept slapping her, shouting, "Bitch! Always forgetting your place. Don't
you know your only job is to take care of me? How dare you try to control what | do!"
Zachary stopped Sarah from intervening and grabbed Charlie's raised hand himself. "Charlie, enough!"
Charlie was about to snap back until he realized it was Zachary holding his wrist. His frenzied mind regained a
sliver of rationality. "Bro, sorry you had to see this embarrassing scene."
His right hand was still trembling, revealing the force he'd used.
