After that day, Lily gradually recovered, and I took all those who had hurt her to court.
I told Lily: “Baby, Mommy will protect you and get justice for you.”
The little one seemed to understand vaguely. She burrowed into my arms, calling me “Mommy, Mommy, Mommy” in her sweet little voice.
Faced with huge compensation demands, those parents came to my door begging and pleading, wanting to settle with me.
Some even brought their children and beat them mercilessly in front of my house:
“I’ll teach you to bully others! I’ll teach you to bully others!”
The children were beaten until they were sobbing uncontrollably.
“Madam Chairman, we’ve already disciplined our children. Please be magnanimous and forgive us. Our whole family is on our knees begging you!”
But I still wouldn’t budge.
I will never forgive those who hurt my daughter.
As for the family of three – Samuel, Rachel, and Leo – they couldn’t even leave their house now.
The online buzz continued, with netizens calling Samuel an ungrateful dog and Leo a wolf cub.
Every day people would throw rotten eggs and splash red paint at their door.
But this wasn’t the end.
In just a few short days, I filed for divorce, sued to recover marital assets, and charged Samuel with embezzling company funds through his position.
Samuel tried to go to the company, but his access card had long been deactivated. He was left locked outside.
In the past, he had considered himself an executive, superior to others.
Now not only had Flying Group fired him, but other companies wouldn’t hire such a shameless person either.
He ended up privately contacting former business colleagues, planning to start his own venture. But they simply blocked him without even responding.

He rushed to confront me, demanding:
“Did you instruct them to interfere with my business associates‘ freedom?”
I just found it laughable:
“Samuel, you’re nothing but a piece of shit now. Who in their right mind would want to associate with shit?”
I ignored his barking and had security throw him out.
He shouted loudly:
“I’m the man of this house, the general manager of Flying! How dare you lay hands on me!”
No one paid him any attention. They tossed him out like a stray dog.
The divorce trial started soon after, reigniting online discussions.
-t
Because the nature of his infidelity was so egregious and caused major negative social impact, he was left with nothing in the divorce.
He wasn’t satisfied and made a scene in court. The judge simply had the bailiffs restrain him.
Online comments flooded in:
“This is so satisfying!”
“Karma for the scumbag!”
“Serves him right!”
The subsequent case of illegally embezzling company funds through his position had solid evidence, enough to put Samuel away for a few
years.
A few days later, he intercepted my car on my usual route to the office.
By now he looked utterly haggard, with a scraggly beard and hair that had gone half gray. He no longer had any of the vigorous confidence from when he stood in high positions being flattered by others.
He half–bowed, finally lowering his head.
“Quincy, I was wrong. I’ve already cleared things up with Rachel. I promise I won’t have any more contact with her.”
“I’m Lily’s father after all. Please forgive me for Lily’s sake.”
“Quincy, let’s remarry. Give Lily a complete family. Let me come back to Flying. I don’t need to be general manager, a director position is fine.”
At this moment, I sat in my luxury car, looking coldly at Samuel through the half–lowered window,
“Samuel, you think too highly of yourself. At the kindergarten, when Lily needed your protection, where were you?”
“How dare you mention Lily?!”
I had the driver drive away, leaving him far behind.
Just as Lily and I had left him far behind in our lives.
The next news I heard about Samuel was that he was already in prison.
As for recovering the assets Samuel had transferred to Rachel, that was child’s play for the legal team.
Legal told me that even the house Rachel was living in now had been secretly bought by Samuel,
Now Rachel could only rent a place in a urban village.
Like Samuel, her reputation was ruined and no company dared hire her.
She tried setting up a small stall, but netizens recognized her immediately and smashed her stall.
After that, she could only make a living by collecting garbage.
As for the children who had ganged up on Lily, they were forced to leave school at the request of other parents.
I heard they weren’t welcomed by teachers when they went to other kindergartens.
It’s understandable. After all, what parent would want their child playing with children who have violent tendencies?
As for Leo, when he went to a new kindergarten, he was taunted for being the child of a mistress.
He lost his temper and impulsively got into a fight with a group of 6–year–olds.
The result was predictable. He was no match for them and was beaten badly, bleeding on the spot.
At the hospital, he was diagnosed with a concussion and a broken leg.
No kindergarten would take him after that.
Rachel was both angry and heartbroken. She begged and pleaded but to no avail. She could only take him along to collect garbage.
The next time I saw this mother and son was on a street of food stalls.
They were both filthy, with messy hair, going through garbage cans one by one.
Meanwhile, I sat in my luxury car, about to order my daughter’s favorite princess cake.
(The End)
