Ch. 231..240
Chapter 231 Chapter 231 A girl having a good relationship with her couldn’t help but laugh. “Melody, don’t you like this page?” She was just joking casually.
But Melody suddenly stopped and looked up at her. At this moment, there was actually a trace of viciousness in her originally clean and beautiful eyes.
That girl was shocked. But in the next second, she saw that Melody’s smile become gentle as usual again. The ferocity just now seemed to be just her hallucination.
Melody smiled and said, “No, this page can’t get along with me.” With that, she tore it apart. That fine page was torn to pieces in just a few rounds.
Stunned, that girl tactfully shrank.
At this moment, in the Booth family, Sandra had just come downstairs when Jordan returned home, reeking of alcohol, He had stayed outside the entire night. There was a strong perfume smell on his clothes. Even the collar had obvious red lip marks.
Sandra’s eyes gradually turned cold, but she smiled generously. “You’re back.” After saying that, she instructed the servants, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up.” She handled this matter more and more skillfully. This was because it would happen every few days.
Even though the wedding date was approaching and she was already pregnant with his child, Jordan had never behaved himself. Upon hearing this, he laughed heartily. “Honey, you’re so good.” Sandra felt goosebumps all over her body.
After supporting Jordan upstairs to rest, she sat down on the sofa. There was a mirror that reflected her face.
Due to her pregnancy, she had become more voluptuous than before. Now she had the charm of a mature woman. Dressed in a custom–made long dress, she exuded an aura of nobility.
After marrying the Booth family, she led a luxurious life. Inside her stomach was the Booth family’s only child in Jordan’s generation, so even his parents, who used to be harsh on her, treated her quite nicely these days.
But even so, she was still insignificant in the Booth family. Even for this wedding, she had used all her efforts to coax Jordan. Finally, he decided to spend money like water to give her a grand and extravagant occasion before the guests.
On the surface, she did look like the young lady of a wealthy family.
However, in reality, Jordan had repeatedly crossed the line as her husband. His parent’s perfunctory and negligent attitude made her remember at all times that she was just living under someone else’s roof. She was nothing but an item the Booth family bought for fun.
Sandra gritted her teeth. Day and night, that indelible hatred swept over her.
She did not forget for a moment who had pushed her here today and made her completely lose the right to stand beside Kenneth.
‘Why I’m so miserable? That bitch Tiffany must be laughing at me!‘ Sandra was trembling with hatred.
After a long while, she gradually calmed down and reached out to touch her stomach.
Her pregnancy was hidden from the public. After all, no one cared about it. However, she still carefully hid this news.
This was still the early stage, so for security issues, the Booth family also decided to hide it to protect her and the child.
Therefore, the Kelley family didn’t know, let alone Tiffany.
Sandra let out a breath of turbid air and touched her stomach with a gentle expression. ‘Baby, your existence is a mistake. So this time, Mommy needs you to do me a favor. I’ll use you to fulfill my wish.
Tiffany’s eyelids twitched a few times that afternoon, but she couldn’t put a finger on it.
In the afternoon, she taught Zoe to play basketball. As time passed by, a group of people came around.
Alexia stood in the middle of the bodyguards like a noble princess from the royal family. She was high and mighty with a provocative expression.
Tiffany smiled and asked casually, “Tell me, how do you want to be beaten this time?” Alexia sneered. “You still think that my uncle will help you this time? Didn’t you see his attitude last time in my family?” The last time Tiffany was forced by Romeo to talk about her marriage with Kenneth.
At that time, Richard was also present, but he kept an attitude of staying out of it and even claimed that it had nothing to do with him before swaggering away.
It was precisely because Alexia remembered this that she was so bold to Tiffany a lesson here.
She enunciated each word, so flamboyant and smug. “Are you still not giving up? My uncle has already gotten tired of you!” Tiffany chuckled. Now that man owed her again.
Seriously, if Alexia hadn’t mentioned this, she would have forgotten.
Seeing Tiffany laugh, Alexia became even angrier. Under Tiffany’s nonchalant attitude, all her provocations were like flies flaunting their might in front of an elephant, so weak and stupid. The two were not on the same level at all.
Alexia waved her hand, giving her bodyguards a sign.
Zoe interrupted, “Hey, where does this peacock come from?” Alexia narrowed her eyes. ‘Peacock?‘ Tiffany took a look and chuckled.
Needless to say, Alexia, who was wearing a bright and colorful dress, looked quite like a peacock.
“Ah!” Alexia couldn’t bear such a blatant humiliation and mockery and her head was about to explode. At first, she just wanted to teach them a lesson, but now she blurted out, “Go, kill them! Kill them!” As she roared, she stomped her feet on the verge of madness.
They were just a few bodyguards. Tiffany did not panic at all and even threw a three–pointer neatly. Seeing the basketball steadily enter the basket, she pulled her sleeves and walked to them. Once Tiffany was serious, no one would end up standing.
At this moment, a cold voice came from behind. “Stop!” The bodyguards turned around and immediately retracted their hands. They nodded and respectfully bowed. “Mr. Harper.” It was Kenneth.
When Alexia saw him, she immediately jumped up excitedly. “Kenneth, you came at the right time! This bitch scolded me! She even…” With a loud thud, a heavy slap landed on Alexia’s face before she could finish her words.
Everyone was stunned.
Because the one who did it was no one but Kenneth.
“Is this how we teach you? You throw o
Chapter 232 Chapter 232 Not to mention Zoe, even Tiffany found it unbelievable.
The Harper family had a name for pampering Alexia. That was why she had grown so arrogant, domineering, and unreasonable at such a young age.
In her eyes, the entire world had to make concessions for her. Once the princess’s mood got ruined, the entire family would be a mess.
Kenneth usually gave in to his sister. But this time, he actually hit her in public. And it had to be admitted that his scolding was so satisfying.
Tiffany could not help but glance sideways at Kenneth.
Unexpectedly, he happened to look at her. “My sister is naughty. I apologize for her causing trouble for you time and time again. I’m sorry. I’ll discipline her well in the future.” With that, he nodded like a gentleman to express his apology before turning to leave.
Zoe could not come back to her senses even after he had walked far away. She exclaimed, “Is he possessed? Why is he so abnormal today?” Tiffany shrugged. After a moment of surprise, she felt relieved.
If Kenneth had not appeared to stop this farce today, Alexia might not be able to survive. So he jumped out perhaps just to protect his sister.
Tiffany went to pick up the ball. From a distance, she leaped up and threw it. The basketball drew a perfect arc and landed steadily in the basket again.
Under the sunlight, she was in an exquisite and beautiful sports uniform. Her long hair was neat and elegant in the air.
Her perfect and stunning face was captivating and shockingly beautiful. Beads of sweat trickled down her slender and fair neck, exuding an alluring fragrance.
She looked slender and weak, but in fact, the power contained in her body was astonishing. Every line on her body carried a wild beauty. She was completely different from those delicate eye candy who always cried and threw a tantrum.
Many boys gradually fathered around here. They were wearing different styles of jerseys and were obviously here to play basketball.
Seeing that her movements were handsome and professional, they could not help but whistle. Their eyes were filled with amazement. “Cool!” Amidst the crowd’s admiration, Tiffany hooked her finger and said arrogantly, “Let’s have a match?” Her lazy smile dazzled everyone’s eyes.
They were all energetic youths. How could they sit still when they heard this?
The energetic boys ran into the field. One of them said with a playful smile, “Let me put this first. If you lose, don’t say that we’re bullying you.” “Of course not.” Tiffany blinked and said confidently, “You might be the ones who lose.” “Ha, interesting!” The basketball boy was overjoyed.
Next, it was time to form a team. Other than the vigorous young boy who had just spoken, everyone else was fighting to be on Tiffany’s side.
After all, it was impolite to bully a girl, not to mention such a cool one.
These seniors even argued for minutes. In the end, they decided on their teams by flipping their hands.
Then, the battle officially began.
Zoe was not familiar with this game yet, so she was a cheerleader at the side, cheering excitedly.
Tiffany did indeed have the right to be ostentatious. She was fast and agile throughout the entire match. No matter from which angle and no matter in which posture, she could always make a perfect shoot.
After all, it was an entertainment match. Winning was not important.
Laughter came from time to time from the court.
However, a gaze followed Tiffany closely.
Kenneth did not go far. He just didn’t dare to appear in front of her.
Looking at this agile and jumping figure, and her exquisite and vivid eyebrows, Kenneth seemed to see Tiffany running behind him a few years ago. It would be a lie that he was not touched, also a lie that he did not regret it. He looked down, hiding the loneliness in his eyes that he did not want others to catch.
On the rooftop not far away, Melody sat by the guardrail with her legs swaying in the air. From time to time, there would be wind blowing, as if she would fall from the rooftop in the next second.
She had been watching Tiffany play basketball with her own eyes. She was so beautiful and valiant. She also saw Kenneth hiding somewhere and watching it from afar.
Melody tilted her head and smiled. Then she called Kenneth.
It rang for nearly ten seconds until the phone was about to hang up automatically before he picked it up. “Hey, what’s wrong?” “Kenneth, where are you?” Her voice was cold.
“I’m on the sports field. What’s wrong?” Kenneth replied casually. Suddenly, he frowned and asked, “Why is the wind so loud on your side?” “Oh.” Melody laughed naively. “Because I’m on the rooftop.” Kenneth subconsciously looked up and saw a lonely figure sitting at the edge of the rooftop of a building not far away. His scalp went numb, and he was so frightened that his voice changed. “Come down quickly! Melody, it’s dangerous!” “Really? But I think it’s nice here. It’s quiet.” Her tone was cold and nonchalant. As she spoke, she smiled again and asked playfully, “Kenneth, do you think I can fly if I jump?” Kenneth was almost scared to death. “Be good and come down, or stay put. I’m coming to you, okay?” He said as he ran with all his might as if he was a second late, she would really fall down.
“Alright, I’ll wait for you.” Melody smiled and hung up.
With a breeze brushing past her face, she clearly saw Kenneth running towards her with all his might.
She couldn’t help but smile in satisfaction. ‘Now, are you still in the mood to think about her?‘ Chapter 232 +5 Kenneth ran up to the rooftop exhaustedly. He was sweating profusely and panting, when approaching Melody step by step.
He stopped and reached out his hand to her. “Come, let me bring you down, okay?” “Alright.” Melody obediently extended her hand.
Seeing this, Kenneth grabbed her back and hugged her,.
afraid that she would really jump. “Thank God!‘ Melody blinked. “Why are you so nervous? Do you think I’ll jump here? No, I’m not that stupid.” “Then why are you sitting here? It’s so high. Don’t you know how dangerous it is?” Kenneth wanted to say more, but Melody lowered her head, her face full of loneliness. “I just want to see you. You haven’t been paying much attention to me lately. I want to see you, but I don’t dare to disturb you, so… I can only stand higher so that I can find you.” Her voice became softer, carrying a hint of caution.
Kenneth was stunned when he heard that. During this period of time, he had indeed neglected Melody.
In the first few days, he even brought her to familiariz herself with the school and took good care of her.
He was the only one she could trust and be close to. But now, he had changed. He was always conflicted and indecisive. Kenneth smiled bitterly. Tiffany was right. He was indeed an asshole. In fact, he was even worse than that.
Chapter 233 Chapter 233 Seeing Kenneth’s dark expression, Melody asked tentatively, “Kenneth, did I say something wrong?” “No.” He sighed. When he looked at Melody again, his eyes were much more determined. “You didn’t do anything wrong. I was wrong. From now on, I’ll force myself to make a choice. I won’t ignore you anymore, okay?” Melody was a little puzzled. She did not seem to understand, but she still nodded obediently. “Whatever you say.” Kenneth rubbed Melody’s head, his eyes gentle.
Since he had promised that he would take good care of her and that he would really pursue her after his family agreed to cancel the marriage, he had to fulfill his words.
“Let’s go.” Kenneth stood up. This time, he held Melody’s hand and did not let go for a moment.
The girl walked side by side with him, smiling innocently. However, no one caught the flash of success and contempt in her eyes that disappeared in the blink of an eye. It was too easy to deal with this man.
For the next few days, Kenneth never denied their relationship again. Even when people asked, he introduced Melody, “This is my girlfriend.” He and Tiffany had reached a tacit understanding that neither of them would acknowledge this marriage even if Romeo did not agree.
Tiffany was quite satisfied with this.
Zoe winked and asked jokingly, “Tiffany, do you have a crush? I think the man who saved you last time is quite good. He’s so handsome! Why don’t you think of a way to kidnap him home?” She was referring to Richard.
When she first met Tiffany, they were kidnapped in an abandoned factory.
At that time, Richard’s kick really left a deep impression. It was such a thick and heavy metal door, but he left a deep pit with a single kick. In the darkness of the night, the man stepped in against the moonlight. His tall figure carried with him nobility and coldness, arousing people’s instinctive fear and awe.
After finding out Richard’s identity, Zoe felt only such a stunning figure standing at the peak deserved to be standing beside Tiffany. Or rather, only these two people emitting dazzling brilliance were qualified to stand side by side.
Most importantly, if Tiffany was really with Mr. Hampton, she would become Kenneth’s aunt. It was hilarious just thinking about it.
the Tiffany rubbed her nose and felt a little uncomfortable. Actually, she wanted to correct that she might not need to kidnap him home, because every night, that scheming man would come knocking on her door on time, precisely, climbing up window on time.
As she thought about it, the corners of her mouth curled up into an extremely dazzling smile.
Zoe was a little curious. She could not help but ask, “Tiffany, what, are you smiling?” Tiffany blushed and replied, “Nothing. Let’s go and eat.” At night, Tiffany had just come out of the shower when she saw the handsome man lying on her bed in a cozy posture.
When he saw her come out, his dark and deep eyes swept over with a faint and mischievous smile.
Tiffany calmly wiped her hair.
Richard asked, “Where’s my love letter?” Tiffany was stunned. Then, she quietly took steps back and pretended not to hear it. She couldn’t really write one for him. Even though she had been receiving a lot of love letters every day, it would be too difficult and embarrassing for her to write one herself. After all, she was already past that age.
A light flashing in her mind, Tiffany casually pulled out a piece of paper and wrote two big words, Love Letter.
Then, she handed it to Richard and asked slyly, “Is this okay?” Richard gave a half–smile. “What do you think?” Tiffany knew at a glance that she could not get it muddled this time and muttered, “Then just wait. We’ll talk about it when I have an idea one day…” It would be a question that how long to wait. Perhaps she would be able to escape successfully when he forgot about it. Tiffany started drying her hair while Richard just lazily lay there and looked at her with his head propped up.
Her pretty face was not covered in makeup. Every frown and smile was flirtatious and clean.
He was in a daze. The sharpness on his cold and handsome face faded, and only his thin lips curled into a smile, like the ice melting into water.
Nobody was able to withstand such an eye attack. Tiffany blushed and turned around. “You…” As soon as she opened her mouth, she paused. She saw his eyes closed and his breathing even.
He fell asleep.
Tiffany quietly walked forward and saw the obvious fatigue between the man’s brows. Then she pulled a blanket over him.
Just as he was quietly retreating, Richard grabbed her hand and pulled her into his embrace.
“Hey…” Tiffany tried to push him away.
However, she heard the man’s hoarse voice, “Be good. Let me lean on you for a while.” Seeing the faint shadows under his eyes, her heart softened.
‘Now that you have been so busy every day, why bother to come to my place? Don’t you feel tired?‘ She complained in her heart, but she still served as his pillow for a while.
Seeing that he was better, she asked, “Are you very busy these few days?” “Yeah,” Richard spoke bluntly without hesitation. “There was a problem with the recent project. A large amount of money was invested and all the arrangements were drawn up. But there was a mistake in the operation process and the entire project was crippled.” It sounded like small talk, but it was obviously not as simple as he described.
Tiffany said, “Then have a good rest. Don’t come looking for me every day.” “That won’t do.” Richard looked at her with a deep smile. “I’m happy to see you every day, even if it’s just for a second.”
Chapter 234 Chapter 234 No matte what, Sandra was still Charlie’s niece in the name. So he did his best to be generous and prepared a dowry for her, 150 thousand dollars in cash, and a few pieces of expensive jewelry.
However, when Tiffany came downstairs and saw the dowry, she intercepted it. Not to mention 150 thousand dollars, even if it was just dozens of dollars yuan, she didn’t want to waste it on Sandra.
When she was almost tortured to death in prison, it was Sandra who got dressed glamorously and came to tell her that the Kelley family’s villa was on fire and Thalia was dead. She even added that this fire was her gift.
When Tiffany finally came out of prison, all she saw were the ruins and the tombstone of Thalia. Even his younger brother, Eric, a smart little boy, was drugged by Sandra and became a fool, lost outside for the rest of his life.
Before Tiffany could even find her brother, she was kidnapped to the suburbs by Sandra’s men. The pain of her bones being shattered was still vivid in her mind. She could still remember that suffocating feeling of the sludge rushing into her mouth and nose so well.
So how could she even prepare a dowry for Sandra?
Tiffany said casually, “Put it back. Don’t give her anything.” The Kelley family owed Sandra nothing and had even sacrificed a lot. But in the end, how did she repay them? Such an ingrate didn’t deserve a single cent!
Seeing this, Charlie thought that she was angry about what happened before, so he tried to make peace. “Tiffany, we’re relatives after all. Forgive what your uncle and aunt have done. We’ll let bygones be bygones. When we give this dowry to Sandra, we will really have nothing to do with her anymore.” Charlie tried his best to persuade her without making her unsatisfied. “Of course, the dowry for my precious daughter will be much better!” “Dad, it’s not about money.” Tiffany felt rather helpless.
In her previous life, she had been indeed stupid and stubborn, but her father was also quite troublesome sometimes.
His greatest strength was his loyalty and righteousness, which also represented his biggest flaw. He had trusted Stan’s family time and time again. No matter how many mistakes they had made, once they said a few words of kindness to apologize, he would let it go.
Wasn’t this ridiculous? The favor owed would be requited one day. However, the Kelley family seemed to never be able to repay this bit of kindness. Step by step, the entire family was destroyed at last.
Tiffany smiled coldly. She had been stupid enough before. In this life, she would not repeat the same mistake again!
“Dad, it’s too early for you to send the dowry now. And we don’t know if there will be any trouble at this wedding.” Tiffany smiled meaningfully. “How about this? If nothing happens tonight, I’ll agree to you sending it to her. What do you think?” If it were anyone else, they might be scolded for being a jinx. Sandra was getting married, but Tiffany kept spouting unlucky words.
But Charlie was different. He was a typical protective father.
Sandra was also different. This mad and scruplesless woman might really ruin her own wedding.
Sensing the implied meaning in her words, Charlie asked, “What will she do? Something against you?” “I don’t know.” Tiffany spread her hands.
09:51 Sun, Oct 20 Chapter 234 No matter what, Sandra was still Charlie’s niece in the name. So he did his best to be generous and prepared a dowry for her, 150 thousand dollars in cash, and a few pieces of expensive jewelry.

If nothing happens tonight, I’ll agree to you sending it to her. What do you think?” If it were anyone else, they might be scolded for being a jinx. Sandra was getting married, but Tiffany kept spouting Ficky words.
But Charlie was different. He was a typical protective father.
Sandra was also different. This mad and scruplesless woman might really ruin her own wedding.
Sensing the implied meaning in her words, Charlie asked, “What will she do? Something against you?” “I don’t know.” Tiffany spread her hands.
In short, don’t expect a dog not to bark. She knew Sandra too well.
She had a strong sense of revenge and jealousy. Even though she had married the Booth family, which guaranteed the rest of her life, she would still bring up troubles driven by her greed and schemes.
So Tiffany believed that they had to be on guard.
After hesitating for a moment, Charlie nodded. “Alright, I’ll listen to you this time. But don’t run around at the wedding tonight. Just stay with us.” After saying that, his eyes turned sharp. “Let’s see who dares to approach my daughter!” “Okay.” Tiffany smiled faintly with warmth flowing in her mind.
The wedding banquet was at night. Considering the Booth family’s insignificant status in Lovell City, invitations had been sent to all the wealthy families, but only a few of them attended it.
Previously, at Romeo’s birthday banquet, there were almost no cars below a million dollars at the entrance of the hall. The luxurious cars were densely packed in rows, all of which were worth tens of millions. After all, no one dared to isnub the Harper family’s status and prestige.
In comparison, although the Booth family’s wedding venue was chosen to be the best hotel, there were only a few famous guests who could be considered important.
At 7 at night, the only luxury car came around and stopped at the entrance. The driver opened the door respectfully and Kenneth got off.
Seeing that he had actually come to attend such a lousy wedding banquet, the driver could not help but say, “Mr. Harper, why did you condescend yourself to come here in person?” The Booth family had sent out so many invitations. Why didn’t the other famous families come?
Because they had looked down on the Booth family from the bottom of their hearts. So it would only embarrass their images if they were present at such an ignoble wedding.
Anyway, people like the Booth family who thought they were rich indeed had an insurmountable gap between the real upper class.
Kenneth glanced at the driver and said calmly, “Go to take a guest.” The driver asked, “Who?” “Melody.” As he spoke, Kenneth gave Melody’s address and turned around to enter the hotel.
At this moment, a silver Rolls–Royce came around.
The door opened and Mr. and Mrs. Kelley got out of the car.
Kenneth’s eyes flashed. He nodded and greeted Charlie far away. “Mr. Kelly, Mrs. Kelly, good evening.” “Good evening, Mr. Harper.” Charlie chuckled. However, the way Kenneth greeted them was enough to expose their familiarity.
Even though Kenneth had saved his life last time, these were two separate matters. In order not to cause any misunderstanding, the two families had to keep a distance.
Kenneth knew it very well, so he smiled politely and didn’t talk more.
The previous engagement between the two families had ceased to exist a few months ago when the Kelley family came to break it off. The condition of the one–year promise they had agreed on was that if he and Tiffany still had no feelings for each other, the marriage would end there.
After all, love was not something that could be achieved by force The only troublesome thing was that Romeo went back on his word. Nobody couldn’t figure out why he appreciated Tiffany so much that he accepted no one else but her.
Kenneth had a headache because of this. Since he chose to be with Melody, he naturally wanted his family to accept her.
So during this period of time, he had been trying to convince his grandfather. From the looks of it, although Romeo was furious and unsatisfied, his attitude softened a little.
Kenneth was about to go when Tiffany slowly got out of the car.
Her pretty face was exquisite and flawless, like an angel from heaven. It was hard to find someone more stunning than her in the world.
Kenneth was slightly dazed. Then he quickly turned his head away and did not dare to look a
Chapter 235 Chapter 235 He nodded at the Kelley couple and entered the hotel. He looked calm, but the panic in his heart made him a deserter.
“Let’s go in too.” Tiffany turned around and held her brother’s hand and slowly stepped onto the stairs.
The Kelley couple followed him in.
At this moment, in the dressing room, Sandra was sitting in front of the mirror in her wedding dress. Even though the makeup on her face was exquisite, it was still difficult to hide the scar on the outside of her cheek.
No matter how many maintenance products were applied and how many surgeries were performed, there was still a mark left behind that could not be removed at all. The shadow left behind by the fire was engraved on her face forever.
As long as she saw this scar, it would remind her of her mother, who was killed by her.
‘No, it’s not me! It’sTiffany. That bitch was a sweet talker. She fooled mom around and made her indecisive. Or I wouldn’t have done it.’ Sandra took a deep breath and asked a woman standing beside her, “Miss Hart, are they all here?” “Of course.” The woman called Miss Hart smiled and went forward to help Sandra adjust her veil. She said softly to her in the mirror, “Don’t worry, Mrs. Booth. Everything will be as you wish.” This Miss Hart was not an ordinary maid. There were even legends about her in the entire Lovell City. She was indeed a terrifying woman with sinister, cunning, and despicable methods.
She did things that couldn’t be exposed. As long as she was paid enough, she would be a good helper. Every time she achieved her mission, she would change her appearance and use a new identity to accept new orders.
Sandra smiled in satisfaction. “That’s good.” Not long after, a servant came in from outside and said, “Mrs. Booth, Mr. Harper is here.” ‘Kenneth?‘ Hearing this name that she had missed for a long time, Sandra’s heart skipped a beat.
However, when she saw that bride in the mirror, her heart ached uncontrollably.
She had once dreamed of marrying Kenneth so much. But now, this dream had been completely shattered.
Seeing that she was in low spirits, Miss Hart reminded her, “Think about the right thing to do now.” Only then did Sandra come back to her senses. She slowly raised her head and said to the servant, “Call him in.” A few minutes later, Kenneth walked into the dressing room calmly.
Looking around, other than Sandra, there was no one else inside Kenneth frowned as his footsteps also stopped. It was inappropriate for the guest and the bride to meet alone right now. They should avoid arousing suspicion.
Seeing that he was standing at the door motionlessly, Sandra smiled. “What are you afraid of? Come in. We haven’t seen each other for a long time, Anyway… “Didn’t you say that you treat me as your sister? So what’s the problem of seeing your sister?” Kenneth signed and walked in. Fortunately, in this magnificent five–star hotel, there was also a resting place in a dressing room. He sat on the sofa, quite far away from Sandra. Kenneth had always been a gentleman. After sitting down, he complimented, “You’re beautiful today.” “Thank you.” Sandra lowered her head shyly.
Kenneth immediately went straight to the point, “Why are you looking for me?” The reason why he came to the bride’s dressing room was because Sandra called him and said that she had something important to tell him.
Seeing that he did not want to stay any longer, Sandra felt kind of hurt, but she still forced a smile and walked up to him. “Kenneth, you should know that I once dreamed of marrying you. But that’s impossible now, so can I hug you one last time?” She raised her hand graciously. “Consider it a farewell between us.” “That’s not good.” Kenneth refused without thinking.
However, Sandra pounced on him and hugged him tightly.
In just two seconds, she let go and took steps back, smiling like a blooming flower. “Thank you, Kenneth.” “No need.” Kenneth left the dressing room. For some reason, he felt that Sandra had changed a lot.
She had restrained herself and looked much more mature than that old naughty and ill–tempered girl. Marriage seemed to have taught her how to grow up.
Kenneth shook his head and stopped thinking about her..
Just after he left, Miss Hart walked out from behind the screen.
A photo appeared on her phone, which was taken the moment Sandra hugged him.
It was a little blurry, but it was enough to see their faces.
“Not bad.” Sandra returned the phone to Miss Hart in satisfaction.
At this moment, Jordan walked in happily and called out from afar, “Honey!” Miss Hart put away her phone quietly and took steps back.
Chapter 236 Chapter 236 Miss Hart smiled faintly. “It’s not late now.” “Yeah, there’s always a chance.” Sandra was in a good mood.
Previously, when she dealt with Tiffany, she did not have any helpers and her useless parents would only mess things up repeatedly. But things were different now.
The two women looked at each other and smiled tacitly.
After resting for a while, Sandra returned to the banquet.
The hall was filled with flowers. The venue was filled with colorful balloons. A large cake of more than ten layers was slowly spinning. Even the air smelled extravagant and luxurious.
It could not be compared to the real luxurious wedding of a prestigious family, but this was already the best outcome she had fought for.
Sandra held Jordan’s hand and walked forward step by step on the long red carpet with romantic music beside her ears.
When they passed by one of the large round tables, Sandra turned around. Her gaze passed through the people and quietly landed on Tiffany.
As if sensing something, Tiffany looked up and their eyes met.
To Tiffany’s surprise, Sandra’s gaze didn’t carry any hatred as before. Instead, she was very calm and even had a faint smile on her face. It seemed like she was really quite satisfied with this wedding.
‘Then congratulations.’ Tiffany smiled. Then she turned away to tidy his brother’s hair.
She had personally cut his hair the day before yesterday. It was hard to call it a good haircut, but different from those naughty boys who would throw a tantrum, Eric was quite happy about it and even hugged her neck for a long time.
The wedding was completed very quickly. Halfway through, Tiffany went to the washroom and came across Melody.
She was surprised that Kenneth even brought her along on such an occasion.
Tiffany raised her eyebrows and was a little disappointed because this was completely different from before. She was originally waiting to see Sandra and Melody fight against each other.
But she was still the one who attracted the most hostility. Helplessly, she couldn’t decide not to be born with an enviable pretty face.
Melody was the first to greet her. “Tiffany, you’re here too? Oh right, I heard from Kenneth that you’re the bride’s cousin.” Ever since Kenneth announced their relationship, Melody no longer called him Mr. Harper.
Tiffany smiled and imitated her tone. “Then did your Kenneth tell you that the bride is the girl he has been protecting for almost two years?” Upon hearing this, Melody’s expression changed dramatically. It was impossible for her not to understand the implicit mockery. She wanted to say something, but Tiffany had already walked past her elegantly.
The wedding went quite smoothly When Tiffany returned to her seat, the bride and groom were toasting the guests with a smile.
When it came to the Kelley family’s table, Sandra abruptly knelt down.
“Well…” Charlie and Thalia were shocked. “Get up. Why are you kneeling?” Sandra choked up and said emotionally with tears, “In my heart, Uncle Charlie is just like my father. Today is my wedding. Uncle Charlie, and Aunt Thalia, please treat me as your daughter. I want to express my gratitude to you for taking care of me and showing me kindness in the past years.” These words sounded reasonable and she looked even more sincere.
But someone sneered. “You treat them as your parents, but is there a father who doesn’t prepare a dowry for his daughter? They didn’t prepare anything for you.” Some people echoed. They were the Booth family’s relatives, all from poor families, brainless and mean.
“Even not treating him as a father, I have never seen such a stingy uncle.” Other guests heard it and found that the Kelley family indeed did not bring the dowry.
Charlie and Thalia looked at each other awkwardly. The gifts that he had prepared were still at home, but he had listened to Tiffany and did not send them over.
However, Sandra still knelt on the ground and said sincerely, “I owe Uncle Charlie and Aunt Thalia so a lot. How could I ask for dowry? I don’t want anything. I just want my family’s best wishes. I want to walk to my husband when holding their hands. Uncle Charlie, Aunt Thalia, okay?” Tears rolled down her face as Sandra pleaded.
To be honest, Charlie and Thalia were a little surprised. Pressed by the gazes of the other guests, they had no choice but to nod. “Then get up.” When Tiffany returned, she happened to see this scene. ‘Sandra, you have changed. Her cousin had become more patient and scheming, who seemed to have received guidance from someone.
Tiffany adjusted the shiny pin on her chest and slowly walked forward. She raised his voice and laughed. “It’s such a good day. But it’s a pity that Uncle Stan is still on the run. Unfortunately, Aunt Selena has passed away. Or she would definitely be happy to see you getting married.” Her voice was loud enough for everyone around her to hear.
Jordan’s parents‘ expressions immediately turned dark.
All the guests suddenly got enlightened. They had almost forgotten that Sandra’s parents were actually heartless. They accepted the care and benefits of the Kelley family while planning to kill them for their assets. This was why Stan and Selena were wanted.
So Charlie had already been generous enough to bring his family to this wedding.
For a moment, the guests looked at Charlie with admiration. They could not help but praise, “I’ve long heard of Mr. Kelley’s integrity. You really deserved the name.” “Not at all.” Charlie had always been humble.
Sandra was still kneeling on the ground. When she saw this, she felt her face burning with humiliation. Now, she was stuck a dilemma about whether to continue her show or not.
Her fists clenched tightly in fury and her nails were about to cut her flesh to bleed.
Just now, she could have used these words to mislead the Booth family that she had Charlie’s back.
Seeing her sincere tears, the usually soft–hearted Charlie would definitely let down his guard against her and might even forgive her.
This way, her tears wouldn’t have been in vain.
In fact, the effect was quite good. At least Charlie was indeed touched.
But Tiffany’s words had shattered her plan into dust.
Chapter 237 Chapter 237 The tables were turned now. Now people started to point at Sandra’s family.
“Don’t you remember what her parents have done? Don’t expect too much for their daughter.” “Mr. Kelley is quite magnificent. He even brought his wife and daughter to her wedding despite their unfair suffering. And dowry? Does she deserve it?” “Isn’t that so? If it were me, I wouldn’t even be here!” Under all sorts of unfavorable comments, none of the stirrers of the Booth family dared to say anything shameless.
However, Jordan’s mother, Lauren Botth, stood up for her daughter–in–law. “But that’s the last generation’s matter after all. It has nothing to do with the younger generation. Should the innocent daughter get implicated by their parents?” Tiffany looked up and saw a plump woman dressed in jewelry, which was all gold, plus a few pieces of jade. She just added all kinds of expensive jewelry on herself, extremely worried that people would look down upon the Booth family. However, the more ostentatious she was, the more abject she looked, like a vulgar and petty woman.
Now people fell silent. After all, Sandra performed quite well today. If they had to be fastidious, it would make them seem aggressive.
Tiffany was different. She tilted her head, full of the innocence of a young girl. “Ah? You’re right. Sandra is just too kind.” Hearing her hypocritical compliment, Sandra was suspicious. ‘Bitch, what are you doing this time?‘ Tiffany continued, “She just cares so much about her mother. She even thought of ways to give her wanted mother a lot of money. Later on, she really couldn’t raise any money again, so she thought of kidnapping my brother to extort a sum from my family. Mrs. Booth, such a kind girl is rare to see nowadays, right?” Tiffany asked with a smile and her tone was sincere. She seemed to genuinely think so. However, her words unknowingly exposed a lot of secrets.
Everyone was shocked that there was such an inside story.
Sandra’s mother was a criminal, but as her daughter, she even resorted to kidnapping to extort money. Then who would accept such a woman after hearing such a horrible story?
The other guests even took steps back in disdain.
Lauren’s expression also changed drastically. She had never liked this daughter–in–law, who coaxed her son into indulging her every whim, including this extravagant wedding. Even if they had been the richest family in the world, they would still go bankrupt when having such a wasteful woman squandering wantonly.
At first, the Booth family planned to rely on this grand event to make more connections, so they braced themselves and spent gold on one straw for this wedding. But now, Sandra’s scandal was exposed and humiliated them all.
What would people think of the Booth family in the future?
Lauren’s face was enveloped in the shadow of embarrassment and she simply turned back silently.
At this time, Jordan got drunk and belatedly jumped out to defend his wife. He said arrogantly, “So what? I gave her the money!” As he spoke, he patted his chest, boasting like he was the richest person in the world.
It was too late for Sandra to stop him.” Tiffany suddenly understood. “Oh, so it was you who provided the money. I got it.” After saying that, she changed the topic and asked the people around, “By the way, what is the punishment for sheltering a criminal?” Only Eric could keep up with his sister’s pace. He immediately said, “Just sentenced to three to ten years!” Jordan immediately sobered up and was frightened. “I didn’t! I’ve never done such a thing… You can’t blame me. I just gave money to my wife.” Actually, even if he did not explain, no one would take these words seriously. However, his anxious look still made Sandra’s heart turn cold. The decision to empty the Booth family was indeed the right one. She wasn’t supposed to be with such a gross man.
The guests looked at this ridiculous newlywed couple and shook their heads.
The Booth family completely fell silent.
During the three rounds, Tiffany was just like a Whac–A–Mole player, punching whoever stuck their head out.
The Booth family’s people were retreating in defeat, and she was the winner.
Seeing Sandra having been kneeling for a long time, Tiffany said leisurely, “Alright, you can get up.” Her tone was like a high and mighty queen giving alms to insignificant servents.
Sandra was about to go mad from anger. She endured the flames in her heart and played sadfishing. “Tiffany, my legs are numb. Can you help me?” Her eyes flashed slightly, and her schemes were imperceptible.
Tiffany raised her eyebrows and immediately reached out her hand. “Sure.” Her hands were as fair as silk, and her fingers were clean. It was obvious that she was a real pampered young lady. Sandra was extremely jealous. ‘Why are you born so lucky? Why are you so pretty from head to toe? It’s not fair. People like you should not exist!‘ But a smile appeared on her face as Sandra extended her hand and slowly stood up.
“Do you know how much I hate you?” When the two of them were extremely close, Sandra suddenly said, “I hate you for always being so high and mighty. I hate you for always outshining me. I wish you’d disappear forever!” She was still smiling. From an outsider’s point of view, they looked like sisters chatting in a low voice.
However, in reality, as Sandra’s red lips moved, every word and sentence was filled with resentment that she had suppressed to the extreme!
Tiffany was not surprised at all. She was just curious. “If you hate me because of Kenneth, shouldn’t you change your target now?” She was referring to Melody.
Now, Melody was the woman beside Kenneth and she was publicly acknowledged.
It didn’t make sense that Sandra still targeting Tiffany.
“But the only person I hate the most is you!” Sandra smiled slyly “Tiffany, go to hell!” As soon as she finished speaking, Tiffany felt something bite her palm.
She looked down and saw a white worm quickly crawling onto her wrist, about to burrow into her skin.
It was called bloodbite, a type of toxic worm that only existed in the most secretive tribe in the world. Once it burrowed into human flesh, it would be almost impossible to extract it.
In a flash, Tiffany worm was flung ould only push Sandra away. Then, she swung her hand violently. Fortunately, she was fast enough. The worm was flung out before it was about to probe into her skin.
Tiffany heaved a sigh of relief.
Sandra, who was pushed by her, fell down and rolled to the ground with a few thuds.
Everyone was shocked that things had changed so suddenly.
At this moment, Sandra screamed, “My child, my child…” Below her, the white wedding dress was covered in scarlet.
Chapter 238 Chapter 238 The scene was chaotic.
Judging from the glaring red blood on the ground, this child could not be saved.
Jordan was stunned. He was still at a loss as to what was going on On the other hand, Lauren immediately jumped up and shouted in horror, “Oh my god, the child is gone!” She slapped her thigh and cried miserably. Sandra was pregnant with the Booth family’s only child so she agreed to her every ridiculous request, even if she had already secretly decided that when this child was born, she would kick Sandra out of their family. But now, her wish had failed.
“It’s you! You’re committing murder! I’m going to sue you!” Lauren pointed at Tiffany and widened her eyes in anger. “Everyone saw it. You’re the murderer, you’re the murderer! Call the police. Arrest her!” The wedding turned into a murder farce.
However, Lauren was right about one thing. The reason why Sandra fell was indeed because she was pushed by Tiffany. That was why she fell backward and off the stage, lying on the ground on her last breath.
Charlie pushed the crowd away and stood in front of Tiffany, looking at the people around him coldly. “My daughter wouldn’t do such a thing. There must be some misunderstanding. Before the police come, let me give you a piece of advice, don’t accuse my daughter!” Charlie had always been refined and humble. Now he suddenly changed and got fierce, the people all got scared and held their breaths.
His back was straight and upright, like a tower that stood tall. No matter what people said, he stood in front of his daughter like a mountain.
Lauren was shocked by his aura and immediately roared, “This is a fact. We all see it. You’re lying through your teeth. Are you trying to distort the truth?” Charlie ignored her and only instructed the person beside him, “Hurry up and send her to the hospital!” If Sandra really died here together with her child, then Tiffany would never be able to get rid of the crime.
Soon, the ambulance arrived.
When Sandra was carried onto the stretcher, she looked like on the verge of death, but she still propped herself up and asked Tiffany with tears streaming down her face, “Why did you push me?” The guests all felt sympathy for her, a pathetic woman who was pushed down and lost her child at her wedding. No matter what Sandra’s parents had done to the Kelley family, the child was innocent.
Someone clicked his tongue and shook his head. “So they’re not here to attend the wedding, but to deliberately harm people.” “Yeah, look at the blood on the ground. It is so scary.” “I just didn’t expect Miss Kelley to be so vicious under that naive face. How could she be so cruel to a pregnant People always subconsciously sympathized with the weak. woman?” When Thalia heard these words, her headache came up again. She could not help but take a step back, tripping over the chair and almost falling.
Fortunately, someone helped her up.
“Mrs. Kelley, are you alright?” Melody asked worriedly.
The moment she turned around, Thalia’s entire body trembled. Her eyes were filled with surprise, doubt, and even indescribable trembling and sadness.
“Are you feeling unwell?” Melody asked sweetly.
At this moment, Eric also squeezed over and asked anxiously, “Mom, what’s wrong?” “No, I’m fine.” Thalia came back to her Sonses.
Then Melody let go politely and returned to Kenneth’s side.
This strange feeling was probably just her imagination. Thalia did not dare to think about it anymore. She held her son’s hand and squeezed through the crowd to her husband.
Charlie was still protecting Tiffany. “I know my own daughter the best. Don’t slander her.” Right in public with so many people around, who would be stupid enough to push Sandra in public? So they believed this must be a deliberate setup.
But Charlie would rather believe that this was Sandra’s ruse than that her daughter had pushed her.
Eric nodded as well. His little face was flushed with anger. “My sister is not that kind of person. You’re not allowed to bully her!” However, no matter how much they argued, their efforts were so weak in front of the truth.
Because at this moment, the police arrived. “Who is Tiffany Kelley? Come with us.” She was charged with intentional assault and murder.
Charlie almost fainted. “Officer, you have to investigate this thing clearly. My daughter didn’t do this. Why take her away? No way!” He looked furious, his whole body shaking with rage. He couldn’t see his daughter get convicted.
Tiffany patted his back. “Dad, I’ll be fine. Can you bring Mom and Eric back home?” “No!” Charlie tried to explain but got interrupted by Tiffany. “Dad, calm down. Don’t worry about me, and don’t stop the police.” Regardless of whether he was willing or not, she would still be taken away.
There was no point in disturbing the policemen’s work.
Charlie naturally understood this, but he was really worried. Helplessly, he could only grit his teeth and let her hand, “Okay.” He was going to find the best lawyer!
Tiffany heaved a sigh of relief. She patted her little brother’s head and wiped the tears on Thalia’s face. “Don’t worry.” A cold touch came from her wrist. Tiffany lowered her eyes and the smile on her face was a little ambiguous. Under people’s she was handcuffed and taken away. gaze, Everyone looked up and saw that the girl with exquisite eyebrows was still standing with her back straight, so calm and elegant. Her posture was still breathtaking.
Kenneth was standing quite a distance away. Although he had never been interested in being a bystander since he was young, he still could not help but come forward when Tiffany was accused of murder.
“That’s impossible. Perhaps Kenneth did not realize his changes. At some point in time, he no longer had a prejudice against Tiffany or indiscriminately identified her as a sinner. On the contrary, he was actually finding excuses for what she had done.
Even though everyone had seen it with their own eyes and believed that she had deliberately hurt Sandra, he still believed that she was not that kind of person.
Melody knew very well what Kenneth was thinking. She shook his arm and asked worriedly, “What should we do, Kenneth? Should we help Tiffany?”
Chapter 239 Chapter 239 ‘Help? How can I help?‘ Kenneth was stunned. The first thought in his mind was to use his family’s connections to bail Tiffany out.
However, when he looked down and saw the pair of eyes, this thought was immediately discarded.
He had promised that he had nothing to do with Tiffany anymore. Even though he had had feelings for her for some time, he already had Melody by his side, so he had to be loyal.
Moreover, the Kelley family wouldn’t just stay idle.
Hence, Kenneth shook his head and said in a nonchalant tone, “There’s no need. If she really hasn’t done it, she will be released eventually.” After saying that, he tapped his nose and said helplessly, “You’re just too kind.” “Do you like me like this, then?” Melody blinked playfully.
Kenneth was slightly absent–minded as he looked into her eyes, exactly the same feeling he had as he was on the verge of death when he was chased. He couldn’t help but blurt out, “I do.” Melody was slightly surprised. She did not seem to expect him to really answer it. She immediately blushed, then stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the side of his face, smiling shyly.
Kenneth gently held her hand and interlocked their fingers. This was the girl he had fallen in love with at first sight. In the future, he had to take on the responsibility of a man. If he wanted to give her a sense of security, he had to draw a line between himself and all the other women.
The wedding banquet ended just like that.
Lauren watched as Tiffany was taken away and clapped happily. Serves her right! She should spend the rest of her life in prison.” Thalia was so angry that she was about to fight with her. But her vision turned black and she fainted.
“Mom, Mom!” Eric was scared.
Charlie picked up his wife and said to his son, “Let’s go home.” When they returned, the private doctor came over to take a look. He said that Thalia had no serious problems and left.
ར Charlie was relieved and instructed the servant at home, “Take good care of them. If anyone else comes to visit, don’t let them in.” “Yes!” The servant nodded in agreement.
Charlie left in a car and it was late at night.
Eric watched his father leave for Lovell City’s famous lawyer. He stayed at home obediently.
After the initial panic, he calmed down. Then, he took out his phone and scrolled through his contact list. He found a name, which was his future brother–in–law.
He immediately called, but unfortunately, no one picked up.
Eric suddenly stood up and walked out.
The servants stopped him.“Mr. Kelley has instructed you to stay at home and not go out.” Eric said, “Where’s the driver? Take me to a place.” When Eric arrived at Royal Bay, he was blocked outside the gate as soon as he got out of the car.
Under the shadow of a large tree, Lucifer was napping in boredom when it suddenly sensed a scent similar to its owner’s. Then it jumped up and unlocked the gate.
Eric was still thinking of ways how to enter when he saw the exquisite gate open automatically. Beside him, a big tiger wagged its tail at him. Under its fierce appearance, it seemed to be acting cute.
Eric was so scared that his face turned pale.
Lucifer obediently retreated, indicating that there was no danger and wouldn’t hurt him.
Eric gritted his teeth and mustered his courage to walk in. To save his sister, he had to undergo the most severe trials. The driver was scared out of his wits. It was too late to carry him back because Eric had stepped into.
The driver’s legs trembled as he struggled between sacrificing himself and escaping.
In the end, the big tiger was still wagging ground motionlessly.
tail. Not to scare anyone, it did not dare to go forward, so it just lay on the ‘Well… The driver’s face was filled with shock.
Eric was also stunned. He sensibly and politely bowed and said, “Thank you!” Then, he quickly ran away.
He passed through the courtyard and ran all the way to the entrance of the villa, but he could not open this impregnable door.
He was so anxious that he shouted as he patted the door.
When the door was opened, it was a completely unfamiliar man, who had a head of silver hair and looked seductive and arrogant.
Garry looked down at the little guy in front of him and asked, “Boy, who are you looking for?” Eric raised his head and said, “I’m looking for my brother–in–law!” “Oh.” Carry asked casually, “Who’s your brother–in–law?” Eric answered, “The owner of this place.” “Then who is your sister?” Garry asked nonchalantly, thinking that it was another woman’s trick Last time, he chased Milly away. This time, it seemed to be a smarter woman who sent a little boy to let his guard down. This brand–new method was quite interesting.
But then Garry heard the little boy say a very important name.
“Tiffany.” Eric’s eyes widened. “Can I get in now? Forget it, I’m leaving.” His brother–in–law didn’t pick up the call and was still hiding at home, which was obviously a rejection. Eric’s eyes were red as he turned around and left.
When Garry heard that, his heart almost skipped a beat. ‘What? So he is Tiffany’s brother. Little boy, I can’t afford to offend you.‘ Then he immediately ran over and squatted in front of Eric. He was no longer as cold as before and acted as if he was familiar with him. “Your sister is Tiffany? So you’re also my brother. You should have said so earlier.” As he spoke, he put his arm around Eric’s shoulder and led him inside. “You’re looking for Richard, right? Come, I’ll bring you in first. But he is a little busy now. Just wait for him to come out of the laboratory.” “I can’t wait any longer.” Eric raised his head and almost cried. “My sister has been arrested!” At this moment, in the interrogation room, The lights were bright, illuminating the cold room with a bleak pale.
Tiffany’s hands were cuffed to the table and she maintained her back straight.
From the moment she was arrested, they skipped all the procedures and directly charged her with intentional assault and murder.
Tiffany narrowed her eyes. She had to admit that Sandra had made a perfect plan. This scheming woman would even sacrifice herself to achieve her goal. Even the child in her stomach could be her tool. No wonder she did not know that Sandra was pregnant before this.
Tiffany sneered. At that moment, regardless of whether she knew Sandra’s pregnancy in advance or not, she could not let that fatal worm crawl into her skin.
So pushing her away was inevitable. Coincidentally, there were so many witnesses.
All the evidence was against her now. It was indeed a challenge to clarify her name.
Just as she was thinking, there was a commotion outside the interrogation room. Then, the door was opened.
Chapter 240 Chapter 240 Tiffany looked up and saw a tightly wrapped woman come in, who was actually wearing a coat and hat in the middle of summer. Her head was lowered the entire time, covering her entire face.
After the woman walked in, the door of the interrogation room was shut.
Tiffany understood and sneered calmly. “You recovered quite quickly. Did you use some magic? Looks like you’re a witch.” Other than Sandra, Tiffany really could not think of anyone else who would be so impatient as to come looking for her at this late hour.
The woman looked up and removed her hat.
It was indeed Sandra. “Since you know that I would come, why don’t you guess why I’m here?” Tiffany was calm and composed. “Just step on the defeated.” “You really know me well.” Sandra giggled. After a while, her face suddenly darkened.
was pale. Under the illumination of the white light, her ferocious Her face, which had yet to recover from the miscarriage, expression was like that of a ghost. “But you still underestimate me. I didn’t come here to show off to you.
“I want to… kill you!” Sandra walked closer to Tiffany.
In the empty interrogation room, her footsteps were cold in a ghastly rhythm, with it a murderous aura. Every step sounded like a stab in the heart.
Tiffany’s hands were cuffed and she could not resist at all. However, she was still smiling. Even under the threat of Sandra, her eyes were filled with disdain. “I’m sitting right here. Do you dare to kill me?” This sentence hit the walls and echoed in the empty spacious room time and time again. Sandra’s expression changed.
She didn’t dare.
It had already taken a lot of effort to come here in the middle of the night. She did not bring any weapons with her. Under such circumstances, how could she really kill her?
She just wanted to see Tiffany begging for mercy in a panic.
However, Tiffany always looked so calm and composed.
Sandra was infuriated and gave a loud slap.
Tiffany’s head was turned away, and a red mark instantly appeared on her fair skin.
Sandra was extremely happy. “I’ll return this to you.” After saying that, she slapped her hard again. She had suffered because of Tiffany countless times. This was the only time she could take revenge.
Not long after, a trace of blood seeped out from the corner of Tiffany’s mouth. Her hair was in a mess, and even her stunning face was now red and swollen.
Seeing her cousin’s disheveled face, Sandra giggled. She had never felt so good before.
Tiffany shook her head. Even though her ears were buzzing and her head was starting to feel dizzy, she still smiled the moment she raised her head. In the empty room, she was confined to a chair. Her hair was messy and her shirt was bloodstained. Only hereyes were shockingly bright. She was still stunningly beautiful like a mysterious and noble angel.
Sandra’s heart was instantly filled with flames of jealousy.
In the past, when there was no scar on her face, she had been still outshone by Tiffany everywhere.
No matter what kind of tricks Sandra used, with her beautiful face, Tiffany would still be the center of attention and steal the limelight so easily.
Just like now, Sandra was clearly the victor, but Tiffany’s arrogant and condescending attitude made her look as lowly as dust instead.
“Why! It’s not fair!‘ Sandra almost lost her mind. She immediately rushed forward and grabbed Tiffany’s neck violently as she roared. “Are you laughing at me? Bitch, I’m going to kill you, I’m going to kill you!” Her eyes also turned red with hatred as she exerted her greatest strength.
The blood flowed around the corner of Tiffany’s mouth, but her red lips curled up as she spat out the coldest words with difficulty. “Idiot, just you?” With that, Tiffany kicked Sandra’s stomach hard.
“Ah!” Screams rang out.
Sandra had expected that Tiffany’s hands would be cuffed so she would not be able to resist. However, she had neglected the fact that under the table was empty.
Tiffany’s kick instantly threw her away in the air.
Sandra’s body, which had not fully recovered from the miscarriage, was hit hard and fell down. Sticky blood flowed all over the ground again. The harm of miscarriage a few hours ago might just be temporary, but this time, it might leave an irreversible effect on her body.
Hearing the commotion inside, Miss Hart rushed in. When she saw this scary scene, she was shocked. “What’s going on?” At first, she thought that Tiffany had broken free from the handcuffs, but she didn’t.
Tiffany was still sitting there with her hands untied. Her hair was messy and her face was red and swollen. She was a little disheveled, but her eyes were shockingly cold.
For a moment, Miss Hart felt quite disappointed with Sandra, who was so useless and couldn’t even beat a handcuffed woman.
Seeing Miss Hart enter, Sandra, who was curled up on the ground, reached out with difficulty and said weakly, “Save me, help… She could clearly feel the fear of losing her life. If she delayed any longer, she would really die here today.
Miss Hart waved her hand outside. Immediately, two men walked in and carefully carried Sandra.
Tiffany narrowed her eyes. ‘I see.
She knew that Sandra seemed to have grown up a lot during this period. It turned out that there was a woman guiding her secretly.
The moment she was about to be carried out, Sandra grabbed Miss Hart’s arm. “Kill her! Now, immediately!” No matter what the consequences would be, she would go all out. This bitch had repeatedly harmed her so badly. Now Sandra’s best wish was to end Tiffany’s life.
Miss Hart frowned. “No, we can’t risk it.” “I don’t care. I let you do it, do you hear me?” Sandra changed her usual careful fawning attitude and used a commanding tone.
Miss Hart frowned and looked displeased.
At this moment, a man with an oily face ran in panic. “Hurry up and leave through the back door. Right now, go!!” “What happened?” Miss Hart asked.
“The higher–ups are here. If you don’t want to die, just leave here quickly!” Upon hearing this, Miss Hart immediately left through the back door with her men.
Just as they slipped away, a few luxury cars stopped before the police station.
The middle–aged man with an oily face and his subordinates stood at the entrance to greet them.
The luxury car stopped.
John quickly opened the car door. Then a graceful man stepped out of the car.
An overwhelming aura that belonged to a supreme king filled the air. That terrifying pressure and suffocating viciousness made everyone shudder and sweat profusely.
The middle–aged man’s legs were trembling, but he braced himself and smiled fawningly. “Mr. Hampton, what can I do for you?”
