The moment Ken Davis announced he would enforce family law right there in the banquet hall, a wave of shock rippled through the crowd. No one expected the head of the Davis family to humiliate his own niece in public. Even Christina and Victoria exchanged confused glances, whispering behind their hands. In modern times, such archaic punishments were unheard of in public — but the old families had their own hidden codes. Ken's move was clearly meant to pressure Mary into revealing her child's father, but the deeper game was far more sinister.
Chad, Mary's bewildered father, tried to intervene. "Dad, maybe we should handle this at home..." He knew that once they were behind closed doors, the punishment would be lighter, perhaps even avoided altogether. But Ken was adamant: "Since we've already made a spectacle, we should do it here and show everyone how strict the Davis family is!"
Mary herself was confused. She had mentioned family law to protect the family's honor, but she never imagined her uncle would actually go through with it in front of strangers. Her hand instinctively moved to her abdomen, a silent prayer that the child would survive the lashes.
Keira, unable to stand by, stepped forward. "Mr. Davis, are you really going to use capital punishment in public? That's illegal!" But Ken dismissed her with a cold stare. "I'm disciplining a junior member of my own family. Will someone call the police?"
Chad had no choice but to fetch the whip — a cruel instrument that could peel the leather off a couch. When he returned, the crowd gasped. Ken swung the whip against the leather sofa, tearing away a layer and sending stuffing flying. Everyone knew Mary could not endure such a blow.
Mary knelt, her eyes pleading. "Uncle Ken, can we wait until after I give birth? I'm worried about the baby..." But Ken roared at her, "The rules of the Davis family don't give you the right to bargain!" He raised the whip, ready to strike.
Keira's heart pounded. She wanted to rush forward, but Lewis held her back. She turned to him, frustrated, but he whispered, "Think again. Ken wouldn't have reached his position if he were foolish." Suddenly, the pieces clicked. Keira's eyes widened. "He knows the child's father is Ellis, doesn't he?"
Lewis nodded. "If Shirley knows, how could Ken be unaware?" The truth was bitter: Mary's parents had told Ken about Ellis, hoping to gain favor. This whole farce was a trap to force Ellis to claim the child — and the responsibility that came with it.
Just as Ken's whip was about to fall, a voice cut through the tension: "Stop!" It was Ellis.
Ken's hand trembled with relief — he had been waiting for this moment. "Ellis, what are you doing? The Davis family is executing family law. Surely you're not going to stop us?"
Ellis cleared his throat and made the devastating declaration: "The child is mine."
Gasps erupted from everyone. Christina and Victoria stared in disbelief. Ken pretended to be shocked, then quickly dropped the whip and helped Mary to her feet. "You two are really something! When do you plan to get engaged?"
Ellis's voice was flat. "As soon as possible. I'll discuss it with my parents."
With that, Ken left, satisfied. The crowd swarmed around the couple, congratulating them. Mary's heart soared — until she saw the coldness in Ellis's eyes.

Later, as the banquet ended, Mary sat in Ellis's car, still trembling with joy. But her happiness was short-lived. Ellis's voice was icy: "Find a time to get rid of the child."
Mary froze. "What... did you just say?"
Ellis yanked at his tie, irritation written all over his face. "Mary, what are you still pretending for? This act you and your uncle put on — it's just to force me, isn't it? Fine, I'll accept you as a person, but that doesn't mean I'm ready to be a father!" He revealed his deep-seated doubt: "I told you I have a low sperm count. The doctors said I should prepare to be childless for life. So how could this child be mine?"
Mary stared at him in shock. "If you don't trust me, why did you stand up for me?"
Ellis hesitated. He didn't know why. The only thought in his mind was that he couldn't bear to see her hurt. But doubt festered within him, poisoning any possibility of trust.
Meanwhile, Lewis drove Keira home. He was silent, his brow furrowed. Keira knew he was thinking about his biological mother, about how his own uncle Ken didn't even recognize him. She reached out and clasped his hand. "It's okay. I'm still by your side."
Lewis sighed quietly, tightening his grip. "Keira, don't ever leave me."
"I won't."
Then, Keira's phone rang. The caller ID showed no number. She answered, and an electronic voice spoke: "Keera, Mary and Ellis are about to be engaged. You've finally completed the first task."
Keira's heart skipped. She forced herself to stay calm. "I want to go back. Can I?"
The voice chuckled. "You want to come home now? Is it because your biological mother, Jodie South, has been caught and brought back?"
"How is she? I want to see her."
"It's not impossible. I can show you the way home."
The line went dead, leaving Keira with a cold knot in her stomach. The mystery caller knew everything — and now they were dangling her mother as bait.

**Reader's Impressions & Star Rating** This chapter was a rollercoaster of emotion — from the cruel public spectacle to the bittersweet relief of Ellis's confession, only to be crushed again by his cruel ultimatum. The parallel between Mary's forced marriage and Keira's mysterious mission was brilliantly woven. Lewis's vulnerable moment was heartbreaking, and the eerie phone call at the end added a layer of intrigue. However, I wish Ellis had shown even a glimmer of warmth before turning cold. Still, the plot thickens beautifully.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rating: 4.6 / 5 Stars
**Next Chapter Prediction** I predict that Keira will try to negotiate with the mysterious caller, possibly using her medical skills or knowledge of their plans. Meanwhile, Mary will be torn between keeping the child she loves and bowing to Ellis's demand. Lewis will likely investigate the caller's identity, and a confrontation between Ellis and Mary may escalate — perhaps leading to a shocking revelation about the child's paternity. Also, watch out for the South family's return!
