The Woman From Hell
Chapter 588

Chapter 588

"What are you doing in my house on New Year's Eve, Cindy?" I asked expressionlessly.

As though afraid that Cindy might hurt me, the servants held tightly onto her. Cindy could not shakethem off no matter what and simply gave up. "Wanda Lane, why are you blaming me for whathappened to you? It's obvious that you're asking for it because of your hateful personality. Why areyou making me a scapegoat?"

She struggled, and had it not been for the servants, she would have probably rushed forward andripped m e to shreds.

I pursed my lips. "When did I ever make you a scapegoat?"

She sneered. "Who else would it be if not you? Theo said he wants to send me abroad, and evenmy parents don't want me anymore. Everyone’s blaming m e, thinking that I was the one who setyou up."

After taking a deep breath, she continued, "I didn't even do anything! You vile woman. You set meup. I can't wait to kill you right now so you may never rest i n peace."

As she said that, she struggled to hit me but the servants pulled her back, hence she could onlylunge forward a few times.

At this moment, a group of people came in from outside the villa. Petra and Grayson were in thelead, and a group of bodyguards followed behind them.

When Petra saw Cindy making a scene, she quickly went up to Cindy and slapped her across theface.

She did not go easy on her slap. The female servants had let go of her when she was slapped. Shewas hit s o hard that she fell straight to the floor.

I could see a smear of blood at the corner of her mouth. Petra sure was ruthless.

Cindy was struck dumb by the slap. She covered her face and sat on the floor, unable to come backto her senses for a very long time. When she finally recovered, her eyes immediately turnedcrimson when she realized that her mother was the one who slapped her. She looked incredulouslyat her and asked, "Why are you doing this to me, Mom? You weren’t like this before."

After sobbing, she continued, "You slapped me so hard because of this woman? Why? Who is yourreal daughter here?"

Petra looked indifferently at her. "So you do realize that I was kind to you before, huh? You weresuch an obedient child back then, and although you were a little capricious and arrogant, you nevergave your dad and me any huge problems. You also behaved quite decently out there. But look atyou now. Look at what you've done lately! If I continue to let your bad behavior go unchecked, I'mafraid you'll end up killing all of us one day!"

After hearing what she said, Cindy wailed and said," Why are you putting all the blame on me? Youguys were clearly the ones who did those things!"

Petra was so angry that she wanted to hit her again but Grayson stopped her. "That's enough."

He looked at the bodyguards behind him and said," Help Cindy up and send her back."

The bodyguards went to help Cindy but were pushed away. She roared furiously, "Get lost and don'ttouch m e. I didn't hurt her. Why are you accusing me? I have t o get justice for myself today.”

She pointed at me as she spoke, an aggrieved look written all over her face.

Petra looked at her, her eyes filled with resentment and hatred. "Who else could it be if not you?You privately met Quinn so many times. Do you think I don't know the things both of youdiscussed?"

"Mom!" Cindy cried even harder. "Why don't you believe me? I met up with Quinn not to discussways t o hurt Wanda. If I wanted to hurt her, I would've just hired an assassin to kill her. Wouldn'tthat have been more of a direct solution to get my revenge?"

Smack!
