Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 19

“Dad,” Thea said. “I’m fine.”

“Who’s there, Benjamin?” A voice rang out, and Gladys appeared. When she saw Thea, her face darkened. Coldly, she said, “You cursed girl. Why are you here?”

“Mom.”

“Don’t call me mom. I have no such daughter.” She looked disdainfully at Thea, whose face was heavily bandaged.

Gladys was kidnapped and treated horribly because of Thea.

Luckily, Trent was dead. Otherwise, the Callahans were goners.

After Lex returned, he flew into a rage. He issued an order, stripping Thea of her position and casting her out of the family. He even made a public announcement that Thea was no longer a Callahan.

“Gladys, what are you doing?” Benjamin frowned. “Dad may have cast her out of the family, but she’s still our daughter!”

Gladys planted her hands on her hips. Coldly, she said, “Who’d dare go against the old man’s orders? Don’t forget that you’re living off Eternality’s salary. If we make the old man angry again, you might lose your job. Without a job, how are you going to pay the mortgage?”

After that, she pointed at Thea. “Go! Leave! I have no such daughter. You’re a curse, a jinx! Your dad is looked down upon in the family because of you! Look at Howard and John! Even their children possess some of Eternality’s shares. They enjoy a good life just living off the dividends each month!”

Gladys got more and more agitated, finally slamming the door in Thea’s face.

Thea’s eyes misted over and tears started rolling down her cheeks.

She knew she was a disgrace to her family, especially her parents.

However, she did not expect that her parents would bar her from their home.

She knelt at the door, begging, “Dad, Mom, I’m sorry. Please open the door…”

James was heartbroken. He tried to pick her up and comfort her. “Thea, why don’t you get up? It’s their loss, not yours.”

Thea remained kneeling on the ground, refusing to get up. She kept crying and knocking on the door.

The door opened again. Gladys tossed some suitcases out unceremoniously. “Get lost! Leave!”
