Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 511

Chapter 511 Serenas piercing scream echoed from behind , forcing Harvey to whip around in shock .

To his horror , he saw Ian and Ted , two of the most respected elders of the Weller family , dragging Serena across the ground by her hair , pulling her out from hiding .

4 You two old bastards ! Let go of me ! I command you , as the family matriarch , to release me immediately ! Are you really going to defy your master ? Serena shrieked .

Her disheveled hair and furious expression made her look like a vengeful ghost .

Half of her face was bruised and swollen , evidence of a slap .

Harvey rushed forward , alarmed .

Elders , what are you doing ? Let Serena go , now ! However , before he could say more , one of the elders kicked him square in the stomach , sending him flying backward .

Harvey tumbled to the ground , rolling over several times before coming to a stop , gasping for air , and almost spitting blood .

11 As he staggered to his feet , dazed and clutching his burning abdomen , he roared , You old fools ! What do you think youre doing ? How dare you attack me , your head of the family ? Do you have a death wish ? Never in his wildest dreams had Harvey thought he would be struck , and certainly not by members of his own family .

He was the leader of the Weller family , the one who held ultimate authority over them .

However , Ian and Ted were the familys most powerful elders , and they were far from intimidated .

Ian , who had kicked him , sneered .

You shameless fool , do you really not know why youre being punished ? Teds voice was icy .

Why waste words on him ? This kind of scum should be beaten to death .

Otherwise , how will the Weller family maintain its reputation among the elite of Jayrodale ? Harveys face turned ghostly pale as he stumbled backward .

A Are you two really going to rebel against me ? Ian shouted , his voice booming with anger .

You fool , are the rumors true ? Is it true that youve been having an affair with Serena ? 1/2 Chapter 511 +25 BONUS Harvey stammered instinctively , No , absolutely not ! Ted , who had not struck yet , moved like lightning , appearing in front of Harvey and landing a mighty slap across his face .

Harvey let out a sharp cry as blood gushed out of his mouth , staining his chin and clothes .

Francesca had endured Simons behavior to avoid damaging the Aickers reputation , but Harveys situation was infinitely worse .

His disgrace meant there was no question he would be stripped of his position as head of the family .

Panic gripped his heart as he dropped to his knees with a loud thud , tears streaming down his face .

Bowing repeatedly to the elders , he pleaded , Please , I was wrong .

Ill never do it again .
