Chapter 954 Eleanor’s Punishment

Clang!

The sound of porcelain broken jarred against the four walls of the hidden clan palace.

The fruit plate, which was thrown away by Tanya, flew by Eleanor's face at close proximity before it

shattered on the ground into pieces.

Eleanor flinched at the grating sound, but she remained in her kneeling posture without moving a

muscle. Her back was straight, and she held her head high. All of her features spoke of tenacity.

Exasperated, Tanya folded her hands behind her back and approached Eleanor. Rage surged through

her trembling finger as she pointed at her daughter. "Do you know how much we lose this time?"

"I know." Eleanor's eyelids flickered, reflecting the pang of guilt that hit her.

"You know?!" Tanya raised her voice and kicked Eleanor in the shoulder. "You know nothing!"

Her whole body shuddered in pure ire. "You begged me to treat Matthew, and I told you to never let the

bad guys off. They'll be a recipe for disaster! And look at what you've done. I laid out such a perfect

plan and all I have to do is to wait for them to fall into the trap. I thought everything was perfect, but I

didn't expect you to be the shortcoming!

"Forget about the heavy casualties, how dare you bring Matthew and his men out through the secret

passage in the research institute! Don't you know what that secret passage is for?" With one hand on

her waist and the other raised midair, she glared at Eleanor. The scorching gaze could literally burn a

hole through Eleanor.

Lying on the ground, Eleanor gritted her teeth as the pain twisted her stomach. Ever since Eleanor

could remember, Tanya rarely lost her cool.

The moment she decided to admit her fault, Eleanor knew what kind of consequence awaited her. She

covered her stomach and got on her knees before Tanya again. "It is my fault. Please punish me."

The zero intentions to explain her stance kept Eleanor's speech terse. Tanya had expected that kind of

response from her daughter, but it did not stop her blood from boiling.

Tanya interrogated, "Did Matthew cast a spell on you? Or did he threaten you in a way that you're left

with no choice but to let him go?"

Tanya was trying to make up an excuse for Eleanor, but the latter remained kneeling with a determined

gaze. "A man must take the consequence of his own deeds. It has nothing to do with Matthew. I made

the decision on my own."

"You! You!" Tanya's pointing finger trembled. "Why don't you say that again?!"

"A man must take the consequence of his own deeds. It has absolutely nothing to do with Matthew,"

repeated Eleanor loud and clear.

As soon as she finished her final words, Tanya landed a slap on her cheek. Considering how powerful

martial artists were compared to ordinary people, Eleanor flopped onto the ground because of that one

slap.

A streak of blood adorned the corner of her lips, and a red mark embellished her swollen cheek almost

instantly.

The fall stretched the wound on her belly, causing blood to ooze and paint her clothes red.

Nevertheless, Eleanor did not grunt a single word. She simply endured the pain and propped herself up

to get on her knees again.

Her stance displayed her innate egoism and tenacity in her. Tanya could see herself in Eleanor.

How could Tanya possibly not care about her daughter? No matter how cruel one was, they would

never hurt their child.

Anger was at its peak and had the best of Tanya. That was it.

"Eleanor, you should know that it isn't easy for the hidden clan to have today's success. You shouldn't

have brought Matthew to the secret passage."

"Yes, you're right." Eleanor slightly lifted her chin although her gaze remained cast to the ground. "It is a

sin I can never atone for. I know. Please punish me. I will accept it without a word."
