Framed

In Mr Cypher's Study, an old man in his late 70s could be seen sitting on a couch in the room with a complex look on his face. Golden lights emitting from the expensive ceiling light cast a glow on his handsome old face. It could be seen that the old man was quite a catch in his early days. He looked tough and gave off a strict aura. "What did you say? Kahlan did what now?" Mr Cypher couldn't help but shiver, he still feared this horrible old man till today 'why won't he just die off' "dad she beat Phony up in front of the guests" Mr Cypher said with a serious tone looking into his father's cold eyes. "So what if she beat up that little monkey, that's always jumping around me? I have always thought of cutting off that big mouth of hers" The old man spat without being a little bit courteous with his word. "Dad she's your granddaughter!" Mr Cypher angrily said. "What granddaughter?! Who's my granddaughter?! I told you I will never accept any child borne from that evil womb". The old man exclaimed with a face that looked like he just ate something bitter and gross. "Even talking about her irritates me". "Dad how can you say such a thing, Mima has always been there for this family, even when I let her down by involving myself with that woman years ago, she never left." Mr Cypher fumed. "Hah! My chest I'm about to have a heart attack! I can't believe I gave birth to a stupid son like you, when you needed her the most, where was she? When you got sick and had to be transferred to a village...she brought up the stupid excuse of going abroad to study with her children" The old man looked like he had just swallowed a fly. " You...you are so useless" he said pointing a finger at his son. "By the way, knowing Kahlan's personality she would not hit your daughter without a reason, you fool." "Yes dad... hahaha yes! You are right, there's a reason. I will tell you, this disgraceful child is planning to elope with a man. Phony found out, so the little devil beat her up to silence her. She even threatened her! Father, I know you are protective of her but she's my daughter and I must discipline her". "Father...sob* sob* I don't know what Phony is talking about there's really no man, grandpa it's not true *sniff*" Kahlan was helpless, 'what did I do wrong, I wanted to avenge mother.'
