Hailey had no idea who that was and neither did she take time to look at the person's face but one thing was certain, the fact that She wasn't going to let anyone stop her from disciplining Vanessa for all the hurt Vanessa had inflicted on her.

Today was one of the days Hailey had no idea where she got her strength from. With all of her might, She released herself from the masculine arm and smashed the glass cup against Vanessa's forehead. Vanessa cried out in pain as blood began to escape her forehead.

Hailey felt better seeing Vanessa that way and only then did she take a break.

"What the hell has come over you? What did my daughter do to you?" At this point, Connie was crying for her daughter. She sighted a handkerchief on the couch, reached for it, and ran towards Vanessa on the floor. The cut on her forehead wasn't so much so Connie placed the handkerchief on Vanessa's head, applying fire, to stop the bleeding.

Hailey finally looked back, at the face of the arm that held her earlier. It turned out to be her disowned father, Eric Summers, who looked very shocked where he stood.

Hailey glared at him.

"Why are you standing there, Eric? Do something! Call the Doctor. My daughter is dying. She's in so much pain."

"Oh, you call that dying? I might as well end her life myself?"

Hailey's eyes started scanning around for something to hit Vanessa with when Eric's voice stopped her. "What is it with you? What has come over you?!"

"Are you seriously asking me that question?" Hailey stared at her father in disgust.

"Vanessa is your sister. If she offended you, there are better ways to sort things out instead of being violent. Can't you see that she's pregnant?"

The situation was not funny but Hailey had no idea why she burst into a peak of satisfied laughter.

Hailey saw Eric stare in confusion at her outburst. She could also feel the glare that Connie was throwing at her.

"You are such a hypocrite father! Sometimes I wonder what my Mother saw in you that she abandoned her family just to come be with you. She must be so sad and full of regrets for you in her grave." "Hey, do not talk to my husband that way! We all know that your mother was a pretentious gold digger!"

Hailey folded her arms and turned around to face Connie who was still kneeling beside Vanessa, pressing down the little piece of clothing against her forehead.

"That statement was for you. You've just perfectly described yourself! Leave my Mother's name out of your filthy mouth and don't you dare interfere when I am talking to your husband."

"Wow, so because you've got all the money in the world which you get by sleeping around with men, you think you can control us all. You are nothing for a brat!!"

"You all are so jealous of my success that you cook up silly stories. You know what? I am everything you think of me and even more."

"And just in case you have forgotten, I would gladly remind you that I run Summer Incorporation. That means the company, including this house, belongs to me. One more word from your filthy mouth and I swear that you all would be thrown out into the streets!"

Connie's eyes went wide, her mouth wide open.

"You wouldn't do that to us!" Eric voiced out.

"And what makes you think I make empty threats?"

Eric moved his lips to say something but words failed him. It was almost as though he was seeing another version of Hailey.

The Hailey he knew was quiet, easygoing, kind, and respectful. She hardly made a move if people hurt her. It was then it dawned on him that he, Connie, and Vanessa had pushed her to her limit to bring out this dreadful side of her.

"How dare you call Vanessa my sister? Where the hell were you all when she kept humiliating me and telling lies about me? You disowned me because of her remember? And you dare call her my sister? You all are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites, especially you Eric Summers! You should be ashamed of your life and your entire existence."

"People like you all" she pointed at the three of them, "Don't deserve to spend an extra day on earth."

"This is not over!" Vanessa said in between sobs.

"Oh, what are you going to do?" Hailey turned away from Eric facing Vanessa. "Let me guess? You are going to lie against me to the police just like how you framed Cole?"

"I dare you to do that?"

"I'm not letting this go! You are going to pay for what you've done to me today!"

"No one is suing anyone. We are going to settle this." Eric's voice filled the room.

"Mind your business. This is between me and your gold digger daughter." Hailey said, before turning her attention to Vanessa who was on the floor.

"I wouldn't mess with me if I were you!"

"You carry yourself like some sort of saint. You are nothing but a whore!" Vanessa said to Hailey at the top of her voice, sniffling.

Hailey smiled beautifully. "I've always assumed silence to be the best answer for people like you. That is why I never confronted you even when you continued to do evil to me. But I admit, it feels so good seeing you this way. You made me realize that violence is actually important in dealing with people like you."

"Make sure you come with proof when you file a complaint against me because I would be suing you in return and trust me, the amount I would be claiming for damages will drain you. Your Mom and Dad wouldn't even be able to afford it."

"Shut your mouth! You are an evil child! You keep taking everything that belongs to me!!!!"

Connie kept fuming. She wished she could say something but she would rather stay quiet than end up homeless in the streets.

"You thought Cole was poor, you had no interest in him so you framed me to take your place. You made me look bad in front of everyone and I got disowned and thrown out of my home."

"I got married to Cole to save the family company. Then you came back three years later to ruin my home."

"Eric keeps defending you that I am hitting you, not caring that you are pregnant. Do you remember hitting me when I was pregnant? I was bleeding and you told the security guard not to take me to the hospita so that I could die there, helpless. You think I don't know you are the cause behind my accident? You paid someone to kill me just so you could have Cole to yourself!"

"Liar! I don't know what you are talking about!" Vanessa sobbed, not believing her life was crumbling before her eyes.

"Hailey chuckled. "You may deceive your father, your fans who have believed your cooked-up story, and the police officers but you and Connie know what I am talking about. And I've got proof." "Proof?" Connie voiced out, not being able to keep up with the silence anymore.

"You are shocked that I've got proof?" Hailey challenged. "You and your evil daughter don't know what you all have gotten yourselves into. You all have pushed me beyond my limit and I am ready to take you all down."

"Did you both tell Eric that you've been stealing from the company? That is why the company almost went bankrupt?"

"What????!" Eric voiced out in shock.

"She's lying Daddy. She is just here to make my mom and I look bad." Vanessa sobbed. She was feeling so much pain all over her body. She couldn't believe that she had to go through a painful confrontation at the same time.

Hailey faced her father. "Your wife and daughter whom you are well Pleased with are nothing but thieves. Connie has a secret account where so much money goes monthly. Do you think Connie loves you? You've been living in a delusional world."

"Your wife and daughter didn't think the company would survive bankruptcy. They were ready to leave you poverty-stricken while they relocated to Mexico. Yes, I've got proof of their booked tickets."

"I swear baby, I don't know what she is talking about," Connie said nervously to Eric.

"I am not here to make you believe me. I remember I hinted this to you the day I took over Summer Incorporation."

"I may hate you as a father, but the only reason why I never involved the police is because of the tiny respect I had left for you. We may not be on good terms but I cared a lot about your mental health, knowing that you could die of so much pain and embarrassment if the public knew about this."

"But Vanessa crossed the line today. For what she did to my husband, I am never going to forgive her."

Vanessa shrugged Connie's hand away from her forehead. The bleeding from the cut had stopped.

"Cole isn't your husband! Don't you dare call him that! Cole is mine! Yes, I drugged you to sleep with him but I want him back now. You are not going to take him away from me. Cole belongs to me. I am sick and tired of you acting like a saint. Go keep fucking all the people you sleep with for money and leave Cole for me."

Hailey smiled, taking closer steps barefoot to where Vanessa was on the floor.

Vanessa flinched where she was seated on the floor, making Hailey chuckle.

"Why? You think I am going to kick your belly just like how you kicked my belly years ago after I told you that I was pregnant?"

Vanessa looked away in embarrassment.
