Chapter 791 Rocky Was Back

Soon afterwards, Juey entered the hall and curiously looked around at the gathered people. Barely any respect could be found when she spoke with a cold voice to Raef, "Father, what's the matter?"

"Juey, do you know where the servant called Rookie is right now?" Raef went straight to the point.

"Rookie? How would I know? Wasn't father who drove him away?" Juey sneered down at him.

"What? What are you talking about? I'm your father..." Raef's expression darkened even more as his irritation rose.

"Did you ever take me as your daughter?" Bitter resentment colored her voice.

Those words quickly rendered Raef speechless. He knew that he went too far that day, everyone of the Xiao Clan was all still secretly talking about his reaction on that day. Some even thought that Juey wasn't his biological daughter. When Queenie wanted to disfigure Juey to humiliate her, a true biological father would have interceded on behalf of his daughter. However, Raef did nothing to save her and if it wasn't for Rookie stepping forward, Juey would have already been disfigured.

All the Xiao Clan members could only look on in surprise. None of them expected that Juey would question Raef so openly. This was nothing like the Miss Juey they knew.

"Juey, how can you talk to father like that?" A flash of annoyance passed through Mary's face.

"How do you think I should talk to a father who watched his daughter being disfigured without saying a single word?" Juey spoke coolly and her sharp eyes drilled holes into Mary beneath her long lashes.

When she met her younger sister's eyes, Mary was frozen in her seat. It was the first time that she saw such a cold and lifeless expression on Juey's face, as if this girl before her wasn't her familiar younger sister.

Anyone who experienced what Juey had to go through would also feel depressed and extremely disappointed.

"Juey, in that situation, father had no choice for the sake of our Xiao Clan. You don't think your face is mo

. They stopped in their tracks and didn't dare to get any closer to him anymore. The crowd parted like the sea before him.

Once he got through the crowd, Rocky headed straight for the Xiao mansion but the Barren City citizens didn't give up and trailed after him the entire way.

Even the other Barren City citizens elsewhere flooded the streets to the Xiao mansion and caused a massive traffic jam. People from outside the Barren City would think that an important person arrived.

Each one of them was eager to find out what kind of a person the Xiao Clan wanted so much that they posted a handsome amount of gold as a reward.

Most citizens looked on in disappointment when they saw Rocky as he looked extremely average. Nothing about him looked like a peerless master at all. Even so, they still didn't approach him in fear of the invisible force he was radiating.

When Rocky walked leisurely in front of the Xiao mansion, even the Xiao Clan disciples were stunned for a moment before they scrambled to quickly inform Raef.

Soon, Raef himself arrived at the entrance, followed by Travis, Mary, and other Xiao Clan members.

"Well, Mister... Mr. Rookie... You finally... finally came back." For a moment, Raef fumbled on what to call him. His hands folded before him and a fawning smile appeared on his face.
