Chapter 177
The butler’s slap was about to land when Benedict stopped him. The latter was furious, saying, “Even if they’ve disowned Bonnie, you don’t have the right to slap her. Besides, we’re still here. You can’t treat us like we’re dead.”
After witnessing the butler’s arrogant behavior, Benedict could not help but wonder how his sister had endured the past few years living with the Shepards.
“I can discipline anyone I want! If you dare to lay a hand on me, I’ll have the bodyguards throw all of you out. I’ll even call the cops to arrest you,” The butler threatened.
Although Benedict was not afraid of what might happen to him, he did not want the butler to call for the bodyguards. After all, his parents were older and might not be able to handle such a tense
situation.
Meanwhile, Bonnie said, “We don’t need to waste our breaths on this idiot.”
She then kicked the butler, sending him flying.
“Gah!” The butler screamed as he landed on the ground with a thud. He clutched his stomach as sweat dripped from his forehead.
Benedict exclaimed in surprise, “Bonnie, that was amazing!”
At that moment, the commotion attracted Trina’s attention. After asking the housekeepers about it, she learned that her biological parents had visited from the countryside. Although she disliked it, she could not avoid them because they were her birth parents.
When Trina appeared at the front gate, the butler wailed, “Ms. Trina, help! Bonnie slapped me and then kicked me! I think she might’ve broken my ribs.”
Welma anxiously explained, “Trina, it wasn’t like that. He insulted Bonnie and threatened your brother. He even said he’d tell the bodyguards to throw us out.‘
Trina felt annoyed but remained composed with much effort, saying, “Is that true, Benny?”
Benedict merely nodded. He did not have much of an impression of Trina. After all, she had gotten switched at birth and grew up with the wealthy Shepard family. Afterward, Trina and Benedict only
met and interacted a handful of times.
“The butler insulted Bonnie and called her a homewrecker. Bonnie only acted in self–defense. Still, your butler didn’t back down and even threatened to call the bodyguards to deal with us.”
Trina sighed. “Benny, it wasn’t the butler’s fault. Bonnie’s not my sister anymore because she got
involved with a sugar daddy. It’s a fact that so many people know about.‘
“That’s impossible! My sister’s no homewrecker or sugar baby!” Benedict protested.
Trina’s temper flared. “Are you saying I’m not your sister? I’m your biological sister, Benny! Don’t

you believe what I’m saying?”
Welma and Gerald exchanged glances before looking at Trina. One of them said, “There must be a misunderstanding, Trina. We watched Bonnie grow. We know what kind of person she is. She would never do such horrible things.”
Trina forced a bitter smile, saying, “Yeah, she’s the daughter you watched grow. As for me, I’ll never be as important to you as Bonnie is. So, you won’t believe me, no matter what I say. If that’s the case, why waste your breath questioning me?”
“Don’t misunderstand, Trina. We didn’t mean it that way. We just-”
