Evening at the Ferguson Mansion.
Old Mr. Ferguson sat in the head seat in the living room, with Sewell Ferguson and Wendy standing by his side.
Claudia and her parents stood in the middle of the living room.
The Ferguson Mansion's butler, along with several bodyguards, waited respectfully at the entrance to the living room.
The opposing sides were clearly drawn, and the atmosphere was tense and oppressive.
Sewell pointed an angry finger at Claudia's father. "Felix Watkins, the Watkins family owes us an explanation today!"
Claudia's parents were already heartbroken after learning about their daughter's miscarriage.
Felix trembled with rage, his voice sharp. "We entrusted our perfectly healthy daughter to your Ferguson family, and you drove her to have a miscarriage! How dare you demand an explanation from us?"
Old Mr. Ferguson's face was grim as he thumped his cane on the floor, the sound echoing dully.
The old man spoke. "Since your daughter married into the Ferguson family, she is a Ferguson. She aborted our family's grandchild behind everyone's back. Is this the kind of well-bred daughter the Watkins family raised?"
Jessica Stone held Claudia's hand, her eyes red with distress.
"No matter how ill-bred our daughter is, she never begged your family to marry her!" Jessica said angrily. "If you despise her so much, we'll take her back today!"
With that, Jessica tried to pull Claudia away.
The butler and bodyguards blocked the doorway, stopping the Watkins family.
Seeing this, Claudia pulled her hands free from her parents'.
She walked back into the living room and faced Old Mr. Ferguson. "Sir, President Ferguson, with a father and grandfather like you, York deserves nothing more than to raise another man's son. You don't deserve to have a biological grandson, or a great-grandson!"
Old Mr. Ferguson's eyes rolled back in his head, and he nearly passed out from fury.
He collapsed onto the sofa, pointing at Claudia and roaring, "Guards! Lock this wretched girl up and make her reflect on what she's done!"
