Chapter 1029
Sierra had secretly hired a man in his fifties to play her abusive, gambling dad.
Her hair was a mess, her clothes tugged and wrinkled in his grip. She put on her best desperate voice.” Let go of
me! | just want to stay here and study! | don’t wanna ruin my whole life!”
The man growled, “What's the point of a girl getting so much education? A woman's real value is getting
married and having kids!”
Sierra widened her eyes in fear. “What are you trying to do? Are you trying to pushtoward those
shady guys again? They're all just like you-drunks, gamblers, and abusers! | don’t want to meet them!”
The man sneered, “Listen, sweetheart, someone's already offeredsix grand to marry you! Six
thousand bucks! Marry this guy, be a good wife, pop out sboys, and he'll keep the cash rolling in.
Then I'll finally live the good life, thanks to you.”
Tears slid down Sierra’s cheeks. “No! | don’t want that. I'm your daughter, not smoney machine!”
“Shut it!” he barked. “Cwithright now, or I'll beat you till you can’t stand!”
Around them, classmates gasped in outrage.
“You can’t do that!” someone shouted. “Even if you're her dad, you don’t get to hit her! Leave, or we'll call the
cops!”
The man just smirked, all cocky. “Go ahead, call them. I'm her father. This is a family business. Police
can’t touch me.”
Zada's face burned red with anger. “You're disgusting! You're nothing but a lowlife thug!”

The man didn’t even flinch. “I gave her life! She owes me!”
On the outside, Sierra looked like the perfect tragic victim. But inside, she was thrilled. The guy’s acting was on
point-Oscar-worthy.
She darted a glance at Halsey, who stood next to Zada, quiet and watchful.
Sierra pinched her arm hard to squeeze out more tears. “Dad, stop! Letgo!”
Smack!
The man slapped her across the face, loud and sharp. Gasps rippled through the classroom.
Halsey’s brows furrowed. She stepped forward, voice steady and strong. “That's enough! This is a school, not a
place where you can do whatever you want. Leave. Now.”
Sierra bolted to her side, clutching her arm like a scared child. “Halsey, I'm so scared! Please don’t let him

She tried to cling to Halsey.
But Halsey pulled out her phone. “I'm calling the police right now.”
Sierra froze. “What?”

firmly. “This man barged onto mn

The man started to panic, too. “No! Don’t call the cops!”
