Chapter 3

　　Incurring Mason's angry eyes, Winter couldn't help taking a step back. 　　But Hellen leaped into Mason's arms, crying pitifully in front of Winter. 　　The tears of a beauty can make a man feel distressed. Mason gently hugged Hellen's waist, with a loving and affectionate tone, "Hellen, don't get close to her. She is a shameless and cheap woman. What she said can't be taken seriously." 　　She knew that he had no place in Mason's heart, but it hurt Winter to say that she was shameless and cheap in front of someone. 　　She looked at Mason with a sorrowful smile "Mason, I am shamelessly lowly, but no matter how shamelessly lowly I am, I was only yours, unlike some people..." 　　Before she could finish her sentence, a heavy slap landed on her face, and Mason's eyes were full of frigid air, "Winter, you are not qualified to say her name. The reason she became like this, it’s all because of you and your father. From the very beginning. To be so vicious to her, you should know that this day would’ve come." 　　"What do you mean by vicious?" 　　"Don't pretend to not know, Hellen was sent to the nightclub to sit on the stage, isn't it all because of you and your father?" 　　"No, we didn't do it, Mason, her business has nothing to do with us." 　　"This is not something you can erase with a single denial. Winter has to bear the price for his wrongdoing, and the karma cycle is unhappy. Think about what you did in the past, and look at it now, do you think the retribution is coming?" 　　"You did this because of her? You unnecessarily reported my dad because of her? Mason, why are you so cruel?" 　　The man smiled faintly. "Cruel? This is just the beginning, the worst has yet to come. The end of Hellen's father will be the same with yours!" 　　These words made Winter shudder. Hellen's father committed suicide in prison due to a guilty conscience. Did Mason mean that his father will end up the same? 　　Fear made Winter's entire face pale. "What do you want to do? Mason, you can't do this to my dad! My dad has never done anything to be sorry for!" 　　"Really? Wait till he meets the judge in court!" Mason smirked, and the slammed the door shut. 　　Winter reached out to push the door but it wouldn’t budge, she went and rang the doorbell again and wasn’t given any attention. The mobile phone in her bag rang, Winter hurriedly connected, and her aunt's voice came in panic. "Miss, Madam fainted, come back quickly!" 　　Hearing that her mother fainted, Winter didn’t dare to stay, and hurried back home without stopping. 　　Winter’s mother was lying on the sofa, and the Nanny Aunt was okay. Seeing Winter coming in, her mothe, who was lying on the sofa, jumped up and slapped her face viciously. "You stubborn bitch!" 　　"Mom!" Winter covered her face. She had just been slapped by Mason, and now she was slapped by her mother again, making her dizzy. 　　"It's all your fault! You're so obsessed with marrying that Ye. And now that person is going to report your father! What did your dad do? If not for him you..." 　　Winter’s mother trembling as she pointed to her daughter. "You pest! You ruined your father for your so-called love, why don't you disappear?" 　　"I'm sorry! I'm sorry, mom!" 　　"Sorry? What good is that? All this is your fault. Go and ask that from Mason. Convince him let your dad go, hurry up!" 　　Snow fluttered in the sky and Winter was pushed out by her mother. Her mother's vicious words echoed in her ears, "If you can't convince Mason to change his mind, then you will die outside and never come back!" 　　Winter drove back to Walterghuanju again. She rang the doorbell frantically for a long time outside, and after she was completely pale, Mason finally opened the door. 　　"Please, spare my father! I will promise you whatever you want!" 　　Winter was afraid that he would close the door, and looked at Mason, pleading with her hand on the door. 　　"Promise me anything? Even divorce?" 　　"No! I don't want a divorce! I don't want a divorce!" 　　Seeing her resolute refusal, Mason frowned slightly, "If you think that way, Winter, there will be no deal." 　　"I can promise you anything except divorce, Mason, I beg you!" 　　"What did you say?" Mason sneered, "Since you’re so sincere, then I’ll help you." 　　"Mason, do you promise? Do you promise to let my dad go?" When he agreed, Winter had a look of joy on her face. 　　"It's not that simple, unless..." 　　"Unless what?" Winter looked at Mason eagerly. 　　"Remember when something happened to the Liang family? Hellen knelt at your house for six hours and begged your father for help, but he didn't. As the saying goes, the father owes the son, and your father has no son. How can you be called their kid? 　　Mason's beautiful eyes stayed on Winter, "I will give you a chance to atone. If you kneel for twelve hours like Hellen did before, I will forgive your father for hurting Hellen." 　　It is said that there is gold under a man's knee, but it is not the case for their daughters. As the mayor, Quinn Tang is also a man of backbone. Mason's request makes Winter hesitant for a moment 　　"Why not?" Seeing her hesitation, Mason was about to close the door. 　　Looking at Mason's ruthless face, Winter gritted her teeth inside, and she kneeled. She has experienced things that are far more humiliating than this. How low can this kneeling be, as long as she can make her father safe, she grabbed the door frame and watched Mason's indifferent face, "I’ll kneel!" 　　"Then come in and kneel in the living room. There is surveillance in the living room. Don't try to play any tricks. I’ve made it clear. If you give up my promise halfway, it won't count."
