Chapter 1199
After Kingsley''s parents and grandfather heard that something had happened to Sherman, they
came straight over from Lanechett.
Although they were told that Sherman was safe, they still felt worried about her. They insisted on
coming over to visit Sherman overnight. They didn’t feel reassured until they saw that Sherman was
fine.
Sherman told them the whole story. There was a long silence.
Kingsley''s mother said, "Since Luke has admitted he is wrong. Why not just give him one more
chance? I feel pitiful for Sherman. But we owe the Benningtons. From now on, we are no longer in
debt to the Bennington family. I will no longer be soft with Luke if he does something harmful to us
again. Sherman, I’m so sorry for having you suffer all this because of us."
Sherman shook her head and said, "No worries. I think the same as you, Mom."
Kingsley''s father then said, "I think the same as you too. We''d better persuade Kingsley to let Luke
off the hook. But Luke has crossed the line this time."
"If it hadn''t been for us, perhaps that tragic ident to Luke''s family could have been avoided.
Since the change in Luke is rted to Zora''s death and he has learned the lesson, let''s forgive him
this time." Kingsley''s grandfather said, "Sherman, could you go and tell Kingsley our final decision?"

Sherman raised her head, "Why me? You are beloved and well-respected in the family. It''s better for
you to tell Kingsley this decision! I am not in a position to do so.
"Who would refuse to do what he can do? D o you think that he loves me more than you? He only
listens to you, not me. He is deaf to my words. And he always makes decisions without talking to
me first!" Kingsley''s grandfather grunted. "Can someone''s grandpa be more important than his
wife?"
"..." Sherman didn''t know what to say.
"You’llplete this important task! Where is Cody? Where is my dear grandson? I haven''t seen
him for a long time. I wanna kiss him on the face!" Kingsley''s grandfather turned around and went
for Cody.
Before going to bed, Sherman talked with Kingsley about Luke''s matter again.
Kingsley asked Sherman why she so cared about this matter.
"It''s not that I care about it. I just feel burdened. The kindness Luke showed to m e at the end made
me feel that I shouldn''t b e cruel to him."
Kingsley didn''t say a word and went to the bathroom. Sherman stomped her foot in anger. He is
really good at evading the subject!
Two dayster, Luke returned to Santabaca from Lanechett. He was still wearing the same clothes
he wore when he ran away from the woods that day. The clothes were dirty and messy.
He hadn''t rested for a whole night. His eyes were bloodshot. When he came over, Sherman and
Kingsley were at home.
"It''s my fault, and now I''m here to fulfill my promise." Luke hadn’t slept for a few days, and he was
exhausted now.
Before Sherman could say anything, Kingsley had gotten up and punched Luke hard on the face.
Luke, however, was very weak. He fell to the ground immediately. Blood flowed down the corner of
his mouth. Luke struggled to stand up. He didn''t fight back.
Just as Luke stood on his feet, Kingsley then punched him again. More blood flowed from the
corner of his mouth. Luke was so weak and he could barely stand up.
Seeing this scene, Sherman was anxious and worried. She hurriedly reached out to stop Kingsley
but was pushed aside by Kingsley.
When Luke stood up, he said to Sherman," Would you please leave us alone for a moment? I need
to talk with him."
Sherman was still worried, and she worried that Luke would be beaten to death by Kingsley. She
feared more that Kingsley would lose control and go to extremes. However, Luke said again,
"Please."
