She immediately spun around, pointing at Ellinor and spat out, “It’s you! This must be your doing! That woman has to be a stand in you found!” Ellinor shrugged innocently. “Ms Veronica, are you determined to slap the bad woman label on me today? Is that what will make you happy?”
Veronica snorted. “What do you mean ‘slap a label? You are a bad woman!“ © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
SMACK!
Suddenly, a slap landed heavily on Veronica’s face
Marissa was fuming, the slap just now leaving her huffing and puffing
“Veronica‘ Had enough yet? Kicked up a fuss at home, and now you’re at it again in the police station? Ellinor is your sister–in–law. Why do you keep insulting her repeatedly?”
Veronica, her hand on her slapped face, was in disbelief and crying.
“Granny, you hit me? You’ve never hit me before, and now you’re hitting me for Ellinor, who came into our family not long ago?”
When Veronica started crying. Marissa’s heart softened, but what her granddaughter did today was way over the line!
Marissa gritted her teeth and scolded sternly, “1 should have hit you long ago! If I’d disciplined you earlier, I wouldn’t have spoiled you to this exten!! Now apologize to Ellinor and try to get her forgiveness!”
“Granny! I did nothing wrong! Why should I apologize?”
Veronica, in an emotional meltdown, screamed, “Ellinor is the bad woman! Everything I said is true! It’s her! The woman at the hotel is Ellinor!”
Veronica, cursing and rushing towards Ellinor, furiously grabbed her by the throat, “Ellinor, admit it! Admit that you were a hostess at the Blanchet Hotell You shameless
woman.”
Ellinor was shaken so much she couldn’t speak.
The police officers in the station gathered around, “What are you doing? This is a police station. Stop it now!”
Marissa was about to faint, “Veronica, stop it now”
Theo, having finished his cigarette outside the room, walked in just in time to support his grandmother, then coldly looked at Veronica and ordered, “Let her go!”
Veronica instinctively shrank back, “Bro, this woman is bad!”
Theo’s face darkened, “Don’t make me repeat it!”
Veronica immediately let go of Ellinor.
Theo asked Collin to support his grandmother, walked forward, gently lifted Ellinor’s face, checked the red marks on her neck, and frowned. “Are you dumb? Don’t you know how to dodge?”
Ellinor frowned and complained, “Dude, that’s classic victim–blaming! She attacked me. You don’t blame her for attacking me, but you blame me for not dodging? Does your Blanchet family have any sense of justice at all?”
Theo’s tense expression suddenly relaxed. Amused by her words. He lightly pinched her face, “You’re a tough cookie, aren’t you?”
Ellinor grimaced, ‘Humph! My neck just got squeezed by your sister, and now you’re pinching my face again! Your Blanchet family really is unreasonable!”
Theo chuckled, his rough hand gently ruffling her hair, then he turned to look at Veronica, his voice icy, “You, go home
Seeing that her brother was furious, Veronica called out anxiously, “Bro.”
But Theo didn’t look at her anymore. He lowered his head to check the red marks on Ellinor’s neck, feeling quite unhappy, “Does it hurt?”
Ellinor rolled her eyes, “Not as much as when you pinched my face!”
Theo smiled slightly. “Now you know it hurts. Next time, dodge earlier.”
Ellinor was speechless and decided to ignore him
Seeing how her brother treated Ellinor: the tolerance and patience he’d never shown to other women, Veronica was stunned and glared at Ellinor even harder!
Ellinor was lucky this time, but she wouldn’t let her off the hook next time!
Collin accompanied Marissa out, with Veronica unhappily trailing behind
And just then, a fat middle–aged man was brought in by two police officers!
The fat man saw Veronica and ran straight towards her, grabbing her clothes with handcuffed hands, ‘Mrs Blanchet! It’s so good you’re here! Please save me! Ms Veronica
It’s Morgan!
Seeing Morgan at this time, Veronica’s face turned pale, her eyes darting around, “What are you talking about? You’ve got the wrong person! I’m not Mrs Blanchet. I don’t know you at all!”
