The air in the room had become so tense you could almost taste it. When Hector caught Ginny's sharp, piercing gaze, he instinctively rubbed his arm, as if the phantom sting of a cane had already found its mark. His eyes darted around nervously, silently pleading that he wouldn't be the next one dragged into the line of fire.
Ginny, still steadying herself after her outburst, turned her eyes toward Irene and gave a command that sent a chill through the room.
"Irene, go hit this unfilial brat for me."
The words landed like a thunderclap. Hector's neck shrank back, his bravado crumbling. He quickly shot Irene a warning look — a look so full of fear and menace that it made her heart seize.
Irene shook her head frantically. "Madam, I don't dare!"
A cold snort escaped Ginny's lips. "Oh? So my word means nothing now? Is it because I'm old that you all think you can push me around like a rag doll?"
Silence. Not a single person dared speak.
Then Ginny delivered the blow that truly shook them all. "Fine then. I'll move out with Autumn and leave this entire house for the rest of you to manage. But let me make this clear — if I leave, every last asset and share under my name will go directly to Autumn. Think carefully about that."
You should have seen the faces around her. Eyes widened. Jaws tightened. Greed and panic wrestled in every expression. Looking at the family gathered before her, Ginny felt a throbbing headache build behind her temples. A pack of fools who couldn’t see straight — fools who would one day look back and regret every single careless word they had thrown at the one person who actually cared.
Susan's heart nearly leapt out of her chest. No — absolutely not. She could not let all those assets, all that power, slip through her fingers and into the hands of someone else.
Forcing a smile so brittle it could have shattered, Susan said quickly, "Mom, please don't act on impulse. Hector was just angry — he didn't mean any harm. If you move out, people will say we've neglected you. Please, don't be rash."
Ginny gave her a cold, cutting glance. "And hasn't it been neglect?"
Susan froze. Her mouth opened and closed, but no words came out. For once, the smooth-talking daughter-in-law had nothing to say.
Then Simon stepped forward, trying to play the role of the peacemaker. With strained patience, he spoke, "Grandma, please don't get so worked up. It's bad for your health. Hector just lost his temper — that's why he scolded Autumn. You know what he's like — short-tempered, never able to hold anything in. Don't lower yourself to his level, alright?"
But if Simon thought his words would calm the storm, he was dead wrong. He had just rushed back to Northhaven, exhausted from dealing with Luna's illness and endless company matters, only to walk into this chaos. It infuriated him. Autumn was far too disruptive — the moment she stepped into the house, she had turned everything upside down. It was unbearable.
But Ginny completely ignored Simon's careful, diplomatic words.
Instead, she reached for her cane and, with deliberate, ceremonial slowness, placed it into Autumn's hands.
"Autumn," Ginny said, her voice low and firm. "Today, I give you permission. Whoever you want to hit, you hit. If anyone dares to fight back, I'll move out this very day."
She paused, letting the words sink deep into every heart in the room.
"I know you've suffered plenty over the years. So today, you have my permission — do as you wish. I'll take the blame for you."
It was a declaration of war. Ginny had long wanted to teach this pack of fools a lesson. But with her body failing and her strength fading, she could still grab someone — but landing blows herself was no longer realistic. That didn't mean she was ready to let them off easy. So she handed the task to Autumn.
This granddaughter had swallowed far too many grievances over the years, lived far too stifled a life under these very people's sneers and accusations. Beating them was nothing more than what they deserved.
At Ginny's words, the first to tremble was Hector — the very man who had been the loudest in insulting Autumn, and now the most likely to suffer the most.
Trying to hide his fear behind a mask of defiance, he snorted. "Autumn, if you dare hit me, I'll never speak to you again. You'd better think this through. Don't think just because Grandma's backing you that you can do whatever you want. You'd better consider the consequences!"
Before he could finish, Autumn swung the cane hard against his shoulder.
*Thwack.*
The sound rang through the room like a crack of thunder. Hector barely had time to react before another heavy blow landed.
*Thwack.*
This time, he staggered, the sting biting deep into his flesh.
Ginny nodded in satisfaction, her eyes gleaming with approval. "Good. Keep going. Hit them until they finally learn respect."

What a cathartic chapter, my friends. Watching Autumn finally release years of bottled-up pain, with her grandmother's full blessing, was both breathtaking and deeply satisfying. Ginny wasn't just punishing them physically — she was tearing down the twisted hierarchy she had allowed to fester under her roof. The family dynamics are shifting, and Autumn is no longer the silent victim. The fear in Hector's eyes, the panic in Susan's heart, Simon's barely concealed frustration — every character reacted exactly as they should, blazing with raw emotion. This chapter gets a well-deserved ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 4.8 / 5 Stars.
Next Chapter Prediction: Autumn's bold act with the cane will undoubtedly ignite a firestorm. Now that she has publicly humiliated Hector and challenged the old power structure, the family will scramble to retaliate — but Isabella and her allies won't just sit quietly, especially when they realize Ginny is fully backing Autumn. Expect a fierce confrontation, dangerous scheming from Susan, and possibly a shocking revelation about Autumn's true position that will shake this family to its core. And if Simon thought the mess at home was distracting him from Luna — wait until he sees what's coming next.
