"Felix, Dante shouldn't have hit you. However, a man's dignity is priceless. He can't bow down to you," Brayden said.

Yulissa looked at Miranda and pleaded, "Ms. Miranda, this is just a minor misunderstanding. There's no need to bow down and apologize, right?"

Even if Miranda couldn't handle the likes of Cecilia and her group, she sure could deal with the Kennedys.

The thought of the two being relatives of Cecilia's friend, Vivian, only made her more adamant. "I'm sorry, but if you don't bow down and apologize, prepare for a lawsuit."

Even though she made that statement, everyone was sure that other methods would be employed to pressure the Kennedy family.

Yulissa was unwilling to let her son endure such humiliation, so she immediately embraced Dante, who was also startled by everything that was happening before his eyes. Felix was in the wrong, yet he had been told to bow down.

He was too young to understand the intricacies and complexities of adult interactions.

"Mommy, I did nothing wrong," he asserted, his voice growing hoarse.

Yulissa, unsure of what to do, cast a pleading glance toward the child's father.

Brayden understood that, with his own abilities, he was no match for the Leighton and Rainsworth families.

"Dante, apologize!"

He couldn't risk the important for the trivial. In his view, it wasn't a big deal for a child to bow down.

Yulissa felt her heart sink considerably. She had always known that her husband wasn't someone she could rely on, but she hadn't expected him to be this weak. Even when others were blatantly disrespecting them, he still chose to back down. Her gaze shifted, inadvertently landing on Cecilia's face.

"Ceci, could you please put in a good word for us? Aren't you a good friend of Vivian? Vivian is

Dante's aunt."

Cecilia had completely forgotten that Vivian was the aunt of the child standing before her.

Dante also looked at Cecilia with a face full of anticipation.

Miranda was displeased. "Ceci, Felix is your nephew, as well as Nathaniel's. You both better not turn your backs on him."

Yulissa felt somewhat deflated, but she was still not ready to give up.

"Miranda, you've gone too far! It's clearly your son's fault!"

No sooner had she finished speaking than Brayden harshly slapped her across the face.

This slap left everyone present utterly astounded.

Miranda, however, was merely enjoying the spectacle, not caring in the slightest.

"Stop putting on a show in front of me. My son was just attacked, and I'm not buying into this," she said coldly.

Yulissa fought hard to keep her tears from falling. Her eyes were red-rimmed as she

questioned Brayden, "Your sister is married into the Sinclair family after all. How could you be so spineless?"

Brayden's hand trembled slightly. He didn't respond; instead, he lowered his gaze to his son, Dante, who appeared to be frightened out of his wits. "Dante, bow down and apologize!"

He still had a collaborative project with Adrian's father, Robert, someone he couldn't afford to offend.

Tears began to fill Dante's eyes uncontrollably as Brayden abruptly pushed him forward, nearly causing him to fall.

Unable to hold back any longer, Cecilia reached out, catching the child just in time to prevent a fall.

"I want to find Aunt Vivian..." Dante immediately burst into tears.

Cecilia looked at the child, who was about the same age as her own son, and her heart ached with sympathy.

Her disdain for Brayden's actions grew stronger. As a father, he should have been protecting his own child.

"It's all right, it's all right," Cecilia gently reassured him before looking up at Miranda. "Miranda, Dante didn't even touch Felix, and we all witnessed that. Expecting such a big kid to bow down and apologize seems excessive, don't you think?"
