Chapter 120: Other plans
Avery screamed in pain, crying even more intensely. Mrs. Allen’s heart twisted with pain; despite everything, they were still her daughters, her own flesh and blood.
"How dare you be so wanton, so indulgent! How dare you be so ignorant! Tonight, I’ll beat some sense into you two fools!" Grandpa Allen shouted, striking Avery again with his cane.
Mrs. Allen could no longer stand by. She threw herself over her daughter to protect her. "Stop it! Hitting her won’t bring back our reputation! It won’t restore our image!"
Mr. Allen jumped up, pointing at Mrs. Allen and yelling, "This is all your fault for spoiling them! Do you realize the mess you’ve caused? I don’t want to see them anymore. Send them abroad immediately!"
Sending them abroad was the best solution.
It would give the daughters a chance to mature and allow the scandal to die down.
By the time they returned, most people would have forgotten the incident.
Mrs. Allen agreed, but Avery and Emma didn’t want to go. However, under the authority of the Allen family patriarch, they had no choice but to comply.

Thinking of this and combining it with Mr. Taylor’s fate, both sisters were terrified.
"Could it be... Mr. Nelson behind all this? William ended up that way, and while Eric didn’t do it himself, could he have orchestrated everything?" Emma was more sober, but Avery disagreed.
