Chapter 35
Faye and Erin looked at the content of the copy and instantly turned pale, unable to utter a word. Their attempt to harm Sheena had backfired, leaving them in a guilty position as they realized they were in the wrong.
Sheena noticed their reaction and shook her head mockingly.
She thought they would resist a little longer and act tough.
“Start smashing the stuff so we can move on to the next step,” Sheena ordered, smiling mischievously.
In a matter of seconds, the bodyguards swiftly got into action. Four of them gathered all the servants in the garden and kept them under control while the remaining six started the wanton destruction of the mansion.
The sounds of destruction echoed throughout the mansion as the once–peaceful atmosphere turned into absolute chaos. The servants cowered together and looked away.
Faye’s heart raced. Meanwhile, Erin, in her panic, struggled out of Faye’s embrace and ran upstairs in distress. She remembered her precious LC limited edition cosmetics that had been air–shipped from Modaru just last month.
She could not bear to see them destroyed!
The sounds of screaming and breaking furniture filled the air like an eerie symphony.
Faye’s nails dug into her palms, her eyes burning with rage. The sound of each shattering item felt like a blow to her status. However, as an arrogant, wealthy lady, she refused to submit to Sheena’s threat.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Suppressing the pain in her heart, Faye glared at Sheena. “You’re utterly despicable! Bitch! Just wait for karma to catch up to you. I won’t let you get away with this!”
Sheena chuckled. “If you think I’m despicable for doing this, what about what you did to me during those three years? Your actions were beyond cruel, weren’t they?”
Faye retorted defensively, “You’re someone of uncertain background, and you’re never worthy of my son! Everything I did was just teaching you some manners befitting a wealthy family. You divorced him because you couldn’t handle the pressure. What does that have to do with me? I did nothing wrong!”
Sheena found Faye’s arguments laughable. There was no point in explaining anything to someone so self–centered. It would be a waste of her breath.
As Faye was about to continue her tirade, two bodyguards escorted Erin out of the mansion, who kept cursing and struggling.
Bruises formed on her wrists and arms from their firm grip.
Faye’s heart ached to see her daughter in such a state, and she tried to snatch Erin away from the bodyguards. However, another bodyguard held her back, leaving her helpless and frightened as she looked toward Sheena.
“Hey! What are you doing to Erin? I sent those people, and they have nothing to do with her. If you have the guts, kill me instead!”
Sheena said with a smirk, “Rather than killing, I prefer to torment you. As I’ve mentioned before, if you provoke me, I’ll make sure you pay for what you’ve done in the past, with Interest! However…”
She paused, and a chair was brought for her to sit right in the center of the entrance.
As she had said before, Sheena refused to step inside the old mansion.
“Since you were my mother–in–law, and also an elder, I won’t lay a hand on you. So, she’ll be paying for it in your stead.”
Sheena’s sharp gaze shifted to Erin.
Having experienced her vindictive ways at the party, Erin shivered in fear and was no longer as audacious. She cried out to Faye, “Mom, save me! She’ll torture me!”
Though restrained by the bodyguards, Faye could still speak and continued complaining about Sheena’s actions while simultaneously threatening her.
With Erin’s wailing and Faye’s yelling, the noise was getting louder and louder.
Irritated, Sheena frowned and ordered, “Shut their mouths.”
The bodyguards grabbed some cleaning cloth from the garden and firmly gagged the two
women.
