Half a moment.
Edbert Walker saw that Cherline Lindsey ignored him and was getting along well with Obby Stuart; in a low voice, he pleaded, "As long as Sister Lindsey plays with me and treats me well from now on, I will call Dilbert Walker 'Dad' again, okay?"
Indeed, he was the one speaking submissively, but he somehow felt a sense of superiority.
Ella Lacey couldn't help but feel her heart race.
Edbert Walker was threatening his own daughter!
Threatening to make Lindsey treat him well...
That was just too shameless.
Tercy Mason also felt a tightness in her chest. Cherline Lindsey, young as she was, already knew how to distinguish right from wrong and clearly preferred her own family member, Xavier Gale, over Edbert Walker.
If Edbert Walker's threat was successful, then Xavier Gale might not have an easy time in the future.
Who knows what other troubles Edbert Walker might cause...
Just when everyone held their breaths awaiting Cherline Lindsey's response.
