Chapter 52: Everyone Kneels

At this moment, all the members of the Lucy family were slapping themselves hard in the face in front of Lucy. Lucy was dumbfounded. What was going on? "Uncle is sorry to you, Lucy..." "Slap!" "Second uncle has been so inhumane to you and your father!" "Slap!" "Your little uncle has been blind all these years, it's my fault!" Lucy was in a state of shock. She had seen people rushing to bully others, but she had never seen people rushing to slap themselves in front of her! "We're sorry, Lucy!" "Lucy, you can hit us too! We won't fight back!" Why were these people, who had previously bullied her, now coming one after another to beg for her forgiveness? Joseph had somehow appeared by Lucy's side. "Go back with these people and take a look at your home." "You can see they seem quite sincere." Seeing Joseph, these people immediately bowed deeply! It was a sign of respect! To the Lucy family, Joseph was like a god who could control their fate with a single gesture! Joseph's presence was utterly shocking to them! They exchanged glances, each with the same thought. 'So these two really live together!' 'From now on, we must flatter Lucy well!' Lucy looked at the scene before her, growing more puzzled. Her father's three brothers were acting so submissive. They had been so cruel to her before; why had they changed so quickly? Moreover, how had her father become the head of the family? It all seemed like a trap! However, since Joseph had spoken, even if these people were lying, it might be okay. At least Joseph was helping. Therefore, Lucy decided to take a look. But before that, Lucy felt something was wrong. "I feel there's a problem." She whispered to Joseph. "You know what my life has been like at home all these years. Now that my family is making a big fuss about taking me back, it's definitely not a good thing!" "Even something I can figure out with my toes, you don't get it? Joseph, you're no good either." To her surprise, Joseph wasn't worried at all. "I think you're overthinking." "After all, my future father-in-law is now your family head." "Even if your uncles are bold, would they dare to act against the family head?" That was true. It was not an ordinary position. Now that her father had become the head of the family, although he was not impressive, he was still a man. So even if they wanted revenge, they shouldn't target her. With this thought, Lucy finally nodded. Seeing this, all the Lucy family members knelt down to her! "Thank you for trusting us, Lucy!" "Yes, Sister Lucy! We'll protect you from now on!" "We were wrong before! From now on, Sister Lucy, we'll help you through everything!" "Sister Lucy!" "Oh, I can't believe I have such an honor, it makes me want to cry!" "Alright, don't cry. I don't like seeing girls cry." "Right, I'm going to see what's going on, what about you?" "We'll go with you, in case there's any trouble, we can help!" "Trust me, there's no problem. Your father is strong and deserves this family." After Joseph comforted them and Lucy, Lucy finally agreed. Hearing Lucy and Joseph's conversation, All the Lucy family members were stunned. Wow! Did Lucy really believe it? Oh my god! Did she really think her father could take over the entire family? They exchanged glances. Although they believed Lucy's father was unworthy of the family, Who could deny that he had Joseph as his son-in-law! With such a good son-in-law! It would be hard for him not to have a happy life! However, for everyone, Joseph as a son-in-law was a significant presence. It was a great opportunity! Living close to Joseph, who knew what exciting things might happen in the future! If they could gain any ability or position through Joseph... Thinking of this, everyone's expressions turned excited and thrilled! Thus, Joseph walked ahead, followed by a large group, heading toward Lucy's home. This time, Lucy was filled with hope! In her mind, she even imagined entering her home and everyone being respectful! After all, she had been bullied for so long, it wasn't something that could be forgotten in a day. She wasn't the type to necessarily fight others. But making these people pay was deserved! Not just those in the Lucy family who had bullied her, Lucy kept a mental list. Besides those in her family who looked down on her... Everyone who had disrespected her would kneel and beg for her forgiveness! After all, Joseph said her father was now the family head, so these guys wouldn't dare touch her! After walking them a bit of the way, Joseph prepared to leave. Tangna turned to Joseph with a pitiful look when she saw him leaving. "Daddy, where are you going? Aren't you coming with us?" "Daddy, don't go..." "My daddy..." The little girl was reminded of the past. "Mom always said daddy would come back soon, but since I was born, I haven't seen you once, daddy, I want to see you..." Tangna was about to cry! Joseph looked at his daughter. Then he sighed. "Sorry, Tangna, I can't stay with you all the time, though I really want to..." "But I have many things to do, and I can't always be with you." "But Tangna, I promise, if you ever need anything, I'll be there for you right away, okay?" Tangna was very upset. But she nodded obediently. "Okay, okay, I know, but I just want daddy with me..."
