Transmigrated as the Villain Boss's Precious Darling

"He’s killing someone... Call the police! Hurry and call the police!" Old Mrs. Chapman shrieked.

Brian’s second sister stumbled, trying to go out and call for help, but an elder from the Chapman family stopped her, roaring, "Isn’t this disgraceful enough already!"

This branch of the family had utterly disgraced the Chapmans. But the Thornes were not to be trifled with—they were both eloquent and formidable. The Chapmans couldn’t out-argue them, couldn’t win a fight against them, and, to top it all off, they were in the wrong. The sheer frustration was suffocating.

Shane Thorne yelled for Goldie to stop. Goldie spat in disgust and threw Brian Chapman to the ground. "Don’t think you can walk all over my sister. Piss me off, and I’ll break all three of your legs!"

Brian Chapman flinched, a cold sweat breaking out on his back. He was starting to feel a pang of regret. He knew he shouldn’t have listened to his second sister and his mother; he should have just sent Phoebe her living expenses.

In reality, his salary wasn’t just thirty-eight bucks; it had long since been raised to forty-two. If he sent her twenty, he would still have twenty-two left over. On top of that, he could usually pocket a little extra at the market, so twenty-two was more than enough to cover his family’s expenses.

With Phoebe gone these past few days, life had been blissfully comfortable. The little widow knew how to please him far better than Phoebe ever did. Her mouth was so sweet, her body so soft... He was secretly hoping Phoebe would never come back.

Now, his good life was coming to an end. Brian Chapman was filled with regret. His face throbbed, his mouth was full of the taste of blood, and one of his back molars felt loose.

Amanda Chapman’s eyes lit up. She muttered, "Serves him right. He should kick him a few more times. And Second Aunt, too. It’d be best if they beat her to death!"

’Of the whole family, Second Aunt is the worst,’ Amanda thought. ’She’s always stirring up trouble behind the scenes, and Grandma listens to everything she says. My other three aunts are bad, but none are as vile as Second Aunt. If she died, the family would be much more peaceful.’

Although Amanda Chapman was young, she had grown up enduring beatings, scoldings, and indifferent stares, making her more perceptive than many adults. She was clever and quick with her hands, and she was pretty, too. If properly nurtured, she could have achieved great things. But in the book, the girl’s life was ruined by the Chapman family.

With Shane and Preston Thorne playing good cop, bad cop, backed by Goldie’s intimidation, the Chapmans knew they were in the wrong, and their aggressive posture weakened. Still, they sided with their own. Several of Brian’s uncles put on a show of scolding him, making him promise to hand over his salary in the future and live a proper life.

"Phoebe just gave you a healthy baby boy, and Gentry is growing up. You should focus on your work and live a proper life with Phoebe. Stop getting any funny ideas!"

One of the Chapman elders spoke with deep meaning. The truth was, most of the Chapmans knew about Brian’s activities on the side. They assumed the Thornes were unaware, so they wouldn’t expose him directly, settling for a veiled warning instead.

But Brian’s heart was entirely with the little widow; he wasn’t taking any of it in. Outwardly, he agreed to everything meekly, but inwardly he was already planning to keep giving Phoebe just twenty bucks for living expenses. He had other plans for the rest of the money.

The negotiation went relatively smoothly. Though Old Mrs. Chapman was reluctant, the uncles kept her in line, and she didn’t dare cause any more trouble. In her heart, however, she seethed with hatred for Phoebe Thorne, already plotting to make trouble for her down the road. ’Once you’re back under my roof,’ she thought, ’don’t even dream of having a single good day.’

Shane Thorne made Brian Chapman write out a letter of guarantee and stamp it with his thumbprint. Everyone knew a man’s promise wasn’t worth a damn, and Shane was no exception. He just wanted a written document to use as evidence if they had to take this to court later.

Before leaving, Goldie Thorne left Phoebe some money. "Sis, don’t skimp on food for yourself. Allister and Amanda can’t go without proper nutrition."

He wasn’t worried about Gentry. That old hag still treated her eldest grandson well, always saving the best food for Gentry Chapman. Gentry hadn’t lost any weight over the last six months, which proved he was living well enough.

Shane Thorne also gave Phoebe some parting advice, which she took to heart. She felt conflicted. A part of her didn’t want Brian Chapman to change for the better. She almost wished he would be even more of a scumbag, so she could leave the son of a bitch without a shred of guilt.

Phoebe didn’t have to feel conflicted for long. Brian Chapman delivered, just as she’d wished. He only gave her twenty bucks for living expenses—an amount that was supposed to cover the entire family. The scumbag said with self-righteous indignation, "We managed on eighteen for over half a year, didn’t we? Twenty is more than enough! I’m giving the rest to my mom to save for me!"
