Alpha Hardy's lips curved into a cold smile as he studied the disheveled man slouched across from him. "Tell me something, Mr. Ross. Ruby Ross is your daughter, correct? So why exactly are you referring to your own flesh and blood as a bitch?"
The man's chest heaved with labored breaths, his face flushed red with rage. "That ungrateful little whore stopped being my daughter the day she abandoned me! Do you understand? I sacrificed everything for that family. I put food on our table when nobody else would. I kept a roof over their heads." His voice cracked with bitter resentment. "And what does she do the moment she gets the chance? She runs off to the big city with her grandmother, living the high life while I rot here alone. Never once looked back at the man who gave her everything she had."
