Matthew roared, "Stop!"

I looked at his handsome face, now twisted with anger and a hint of helplessness.

"Shut up, all of you!"

I cursed silently, wondering why he had not acted sooner.

"Matthew, are you blind? Can't you see she hit me? She's been tormenting me to no end,

right under your nose.Are you just

going to stand there?"

Melanie took cover behind Johnson, angrily shouting, "Johnson, grow a pair!"

I pulled Johnson aside, glaring at Melanie without backing down.

"I was the one who hit you, and if you dare to cross me again, I'll do it again!"

"I dare you to!"

Melanie yelled at me, her neck straining.

"Try me!"

I stepped forward.

I didn't dare touch her back when she was pregnant.

Now, I couldn't care less.

If I could slap her again, I wouldn't hold back.

The people Matthew intended to dismiss had not left.

They were all watching the scene unfold with amusement and shock.

Perhaps no one expected me to slap Melanie in front of everyone.

I noticed some satisfied expressions among the crowd.

Given the circumstances, I knew I could not let this opportunity pass me by. I continued to

chastise Melanie.

"If you dare talk that way again, I'll rip your tongue out.How could you treat the woman

who raised you and changed your diapers

so poorly? Don't you have a conscience?"

Melanie knew she was wrong.

She wiped her mouth, which was now a bright shade of red.

I pressed on now that I had realized the truth.

When pushed to the edge, people could be brave.

"You shouldn't treat Grace so poorly, even if she’s not your birth mother.You gave her

house to your so-called birth mother, who

never even looked after you.Then you both physically abused her."

My words were aimed at stirring up trouble among the spectators.

I wanted to rouse Matthew.

After all, his biological mother was the one who was being abused.

"You didn’t even spare her clothes.Aren't you ashamed? Melanie, what happened to

Grace’s old clothes? Don't tell me you don't

know.You were wearing a dress I bought for Grace when you and your mother went to the

hospital.Do you deny it?"

I saw Melanie glance at Matthew.

The others present were also visibly shocked.

This was precisely the outcome I wanted.

I wanted everyone to know just how vile Melanie was.

Turning to Matthew, I said, "You abandoned her in that small house.It was I, your so-called

"ex-wife," who drove her to the

hospital. Isn't Grace your real mother?"

He looked at me, his face growing paler.

His voice was weak as he asked, "How'd you find out she was sick?"

"If she hadn't wanted to see Ava today, I wouldn't have found out.She's in the late stages

of liver cancer, on borrowed time.You

had no idea."

"Chloe, stop trying to drive a wedge between us!"

Melanie shouted, covering her cheek.

"Drive a wedge? You're not even worth it! Only an idiot like Matthew would be attracted to

you.You overestimate yourself"
