River nodded. “Yes, I had some things to take care of. Did you have breakfast?”
“Yes, we did!” Liora hugged River’s neck tightly. “Axel had someone deliver it to us. Mommy, promise never to leave without telling us, okay?”
River felt a pang of guilt seeing Liora pout. “Okay, I promise.”
Tyler held Liora’s hand. “Lia, let Mommy rest. We can go back to our room and play with Legos.”
Liora pecked River on the cheek before going upstairs with Tyler.
River returned to her room to shower and rest. She suddenly heard a loud shout from downstairs as she lay in bed.
“Fuck!” Brandon screamed. “Why the hell is my account blocked?”
River sneered, realizing that some internet users might have found their antics annoying. They exaggeratedly promoted an ordinary sweet potato, selling it for 2 dollars each without even weighing it. Naturally, no one wanted to buy it due to their vulgar eating habits.
River covered her ears with the blanket and tried to continue sleeping.
When Jade heard Brandon’s outburst downstairs, she rushed out of the bathroom. “What’s going on? Why are you yelling?”
Brandon angrily poked at his phone and replied, “My account is blocked, damnit!“
Jade asked, “Did someone report you? Can we still have a live stream today?”
“No, we can’t do it anymore!” Brandon threw his phone onto the coffee table. “My account is blocked permanently! No more live streams.”
Jade’s eyes widened in shock. They had just started earning money, so why was his account.
blocked?
Jade suggested, “Can’t you create another account?”
“Do you think it’s that simple?” Brandon barked. “I told you not to stand behind me during the live stream!
“Did you see what you did? My account got blocked because of your interference! Now we can’t make any money!”
“Did I say something wrong?” Jade was equally enraged. “I stood behind you and handed you things. How is it my fault?”
Brandon retorted, “If you guys didn’t say anything inappropriate, why would my account be blocked for no reason?”
Jade questioned, “Could it be River’s doing?”
Brandon fell silent for a moment before suddenly standing up. That’s very likely. Maybe she can’t stand us having our live streams here, so she had someone block my account!”
Jade added fuel to the fire. “Is she that jealous? Jealous of us having so many fans? We should make her compensate for this. These things cost a lot!”
Brandon nodded and stormed upstairs with clenched fists. He kicked open River’s bedroom. door, his fury intensifying as he saw her lying in bed.
“Motherfucker! How can you still sleep?” Brandon roared.
River opened her eyes in exhaustion and slowly supported her body to look at Brandon coldly.”
Don’t you have any manners?”
“Motherfucking manners!” Brandon cursed. “How could you block my account? Are you upset with me having live streams at your home?”
River was about to speak when Tyler and Liora rushed out of their room. They saw Brandon standing there as if he wanted to harm their mother.
Liora quickly pushed him and shouted, “Why are you hurting my mommy?”
Brandon was already angry, and Liora’s push only worsened things. He turned and grabbed Liora’s hair, grinding his teeth. “You jerk! It’s none of your business. Get out of here!”
After that, he pushed Liora to the floor.
“Lia!” River and Tyler shouted in unison.
Tyler quickly pulled Liora up while the latter was in a trance. He stood before her and leered at
Brandon. “Scumbag!”
River was terrified. She quickly pushed the blanket aside and ran to Liora to check on her condition.
Liora snapped back to reality and burst into tears.
“Mommy… It hurts… Liora held her head and cried uncontrollably.
River felt deeply sorry for Liora, her eyes welling up with tears. She managed to suppress her sister.” pain and said, “Tyler, please take her upstairs to Freya. Ask her to check on your
“Okay.” Tyler nodded, sadly held Liora’s hand, and took her to the third floor.
River abruptly stood up, her eyes still red. She swiftly walked over to Brandon and slapped him.
hard
Still consumed by anger, she gave him two more slaps.
“Motherfucker!” Brandon raised his fists to punch her face.
But River took a step forward and glared at Brandon with her chin lifted, taunting, “Go ahead if you dare!”
Brandon glared back with a menacing expression and shouted, “You think I don’t have the guts?”
“Go ahead then!”
Brandon hesitated. He knew that resorting to violence would only make things worse for him.
He still sought compensation, so he swallowed his anger and unclenched his fists. “Enough of this! Just give me 140,000 dollars, and we can end this.”
“End it?” River sneered. “You even ask me to give you 140,000 dollars? I haven’t punished your for hitting my daughter yet!”
“You want to punish me?” Brandon roared. “I fucking have more than 10,000 fans, but you ruined it. Do you even want to punish me? Did I kill your kid? She can still fucking cry and walk!”
River scoffed. “Fine! Listen. I haven’t transferred the neighboring house to you yet. If you don’t apologize to my daughter, I’ll get a lawyer and take back the house.”
“Go ahead if you dare!” Brandon pointed at River. “Don’t force me to get the reporters.
“Go on! Get them now! I want to see who will pay the price here,” she retorted
Brandon felt fear grip him. He hesitated momentarily, unable to counter her words.
He wouldn’t gain any money if he exposed her to the reporters. Meanwhile, he and his family. would return to their village empty–handed.
He didn’t want his fellow villagers to mock his family.
Swallowing his anger, he reluctantly conceded, “Alright! You win! I’ll apologize to your daughter right now.”
He turned and headed upstairs, with River trailing behind.
Unexpectedly, Jamie suddenly dashed out and kicked him as he opened the door, landing a painful blow in a particularly sensitive area.
Intense pain coursed through Brandon as he bent forward, whimpering and moaning in agony.
River stared at him coldly and urged, “Apologize!”
Despite the excruciating pain, Brandon couldn’t bring himself to curse in front of the unpredictable Jamie. He could only endure the suffering and utter, “I’m sorry.”
Brandon then turned and ran back to his room with his tail between his legs.
River looked at Jamie and thanked her.
Jamie raised her fists. “River, don’t worry. I’ll keep an eye on them when you go to work tomorrow.”
River didn’t feel like talking much. She just nodded and walked over to Liora. When she noticed
Liora’s puffy, red eyes, she embraced her with a heavy heart.
Freya reassured them, saying, “She’s okay. Just some of her hair got pulled out.”
River was overcome by heart–wrenching pain, struggling to catch her breath. She stroked. Liora’s head tenderly and admitted, “Sweetheart, I couldn’t protect you.”
Liora buried her tearful face in River’s arms, clutching her clothes tightly. “Mommy… I don’t want to see that mean man anymore. I want him to go away. I hate him.”
Liora’s sobs wracked her body.
River held back her anger and consoled her, “Hmm, I promise. I’ll make them leave in the next couple of days, okay?”
Liora sobbed and nodded silently, pondering, ‘If my daddy weren’t so awful, would he protect me and fight that bad man?”
These thoughts deepened her sorrow. She yearned for a father like her classmates had–one who could shield them.
The Healys rushed to the third floor upon hearing that Brandon had been bullied. Jade seethed.
with anger when she spotted the red mark on his face.
“Did that nasty River do this?‘ she exclaimed. “Unbelievable! Does she think we’re weak? Let’s see how I’ll deal with her!“.
Without waiting for Brandon to respond, Jade flung open the door and stormed out, leaving him.

“Wait!” Gregory sighed before rushing after her. “Jade, please, calm down!”
Brandon gaped but did not manage to stop them.
In less than three minutes, he heard rapid footsteps from the stairs.
