Calvin suppressed his anger, "Tiana, are you also going to fuel Andrew's
arrogance? Look at how he's bullied the surrounding elite families and young people ever since coming to
Blumedale!"
Tiana's face turned red as she cursed, "Go to hell! Who are you to callby first name? This is a public setting,
so watch your damn mouth."
Calvin forced an awkward smile. He seemed particularly accommodating toward this middle-aged beauty, Tiana.
She said, "Let's not complicate things. This all started because your precious daughter kidnapped Lauren. And
she didn't act alone, bringing that wicked witch Caroline along and beating Lauren! So, how am | supposed to
pretend like that never happened?"
Tiana's fury was written all over her face. She was not asking for answers. She was demanding justice.
Calvin had no response.
Miles stepped forward, his voice heavy. "Liliana, did you really lay a hand on Ms. Rhodes?"
Liliana burst into loud sobs. "Miles, that bitch deserved to suffer! | wanted her to wish she were dead!"
Miles felt the world go dark for a moment. His dumbass sister had really stirred up a hornet's nest. He had
warned her before not to mess with Lauren.
Right now, everyone in Blumedale knew that Andrew was at the height of his power, the hottest rising star.
Now, she had thrown gasoline on a wildfire and dragged the entire Peck family into the blaze.
Miles said decisively, "Dad, we need to end this now. Liliana needs to apologize and beg Ms. Rhodes and Mr.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLloyd for forgiveness."
Calvin opened his mouth to object, but Miles cut in immediately. "Dad, we're in the wrong! If no one takes the
high road, this'll just get worse for everyone!"
Calvin glanced at the crumpled, blood-soaked mess that used to be Caroline. The sight stoked his fury all over
again.
"Fine. We'll admit we were wrong toward the Rhodes family. But Andrew still needs to be taught a lesson. He
needs to understand that the Peok family is not someone he can just mess with. Even if he's got skitts, even if
he's made a nfor himself... he's not our equal. Not by a long shot."
As the head of the Peck family, Calvin had always been prideful. In his eyes, Andrew was just slucky upstart
who had climbed too fast, too soon.
The idea that he could ever go toe-to-toe with one of the Five Apex Families was laughable.
Miles was stunned. "Dad, have you lost your mind? We just agreed to de-escalate this mess! Now you're back to
poking the fire?"
Calvin sneered and spoke with
certainty, "The only reason I'm giving
any ground to the Rhodes family
because of Mrs. Rhodes. But
is
Andrew is out of control. No one else in Blumedale has dared to rein him in, so we will."
He continued, "Anyway, there's already a grudge between us, so why not go all the way and teach him what real
power looks like?"
