The man glared at Donald angrily, exuding an assertive aura.
His skin was tan, and his handsome and rugged features exuded a righteous demeanor that indicated he was not someone to be trifled with.
Donald winced in pain, gritting his teeth as he stared at the man.
"Who are you? I'm disciplining my own daughter, so don't meddle in our family's affairs!"
Seeing Donald at a disadvantage, Lacie rushed to his aid.
"Let go of him! This is our home. I'll call the police and have you arrested for beating someone up!"
Lionel sneered disdainfully and replied, "I am the police. You don't even need to make a call."
Lacie and Donald exchanged startled glances, their eyes filled with alarm.
Jacintha had brought a police officer home.
What was she up to?
Faced with Donald and Lacie's questioning gazes, Jacintha took Lionel's arm and smiled sweetly.
"Lionel, let go. His hands are always in gambling dens. Don't dirty your hands."
Lionel's eyes narrowed, casting a stern warning as he released Donald's wrist.
Donald stumbled backward, nearly hitting the door, before Lacie caught him.
Jacintha took out a wet wipe from her designer handbag and tenderly wiped Lionel's hands as if Donald were the most disgusting filth.
Lionel's expression softened as he gently rubbed her cheek with his rough fingertips.
"Did they hurt you just now?"
Jacintha shook her head and replied, "With you here, they couldn't lay a finger on me."

The readers' comments on the novel: Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson)
The novel is too abusive it spoils the joy of reading it. I hate the punishment part between sheena and Eliot....
