Chapter 575

Just as a spectacle had ended, another was about to start. As Javier and Jasper weren’t

home, Betty was

emboldened to act out.

She was convinced that Lauren had leaked news of Jasper’s punishment to Newton. So,

she marched to Lauren’s room and dragged Lauren to the living room by her hair. She

seemed to have picked up a thing

or two from Javier and decided to reenact the punishment right away.

“B-Betty, let go of me! My scalp hurts!” Lauren pleaded, tears welling up as she felt the

pain in her hair.

“You little traitor! Bitch! Oh, it hurts? Great. I’ll teach you a lesson for selling out!” Betty

cursed vehemently

while delivering a stinging slap to Lauren’s face.

‘Ouch!”

The loud slap echoed through the hall, leaving the household staff shocked and concerned

for Lauren.

However, they remained powerless to intervene as mere employees.

Lauren covered her face and wept, “Betty, it’s all my fault! I will not repeat my

mistake!”

She knew that no one would come to her help. She had wanted to fight back, but her body

curled into a

ball in a cowardly manner.

Betty was not only Newton’s favorite granddaughter but also her parents’ beloved child.

How could

Lauren possibly stand up against her?

While Alyssa might have had the option to leave the family, Lauren saw no alternative but

to endure silently in the hopes of surviving within the household.

“Ms. Lauren!” Crying, Nina ran to Lauren and hugged the latter. She implored, “Ms. Betty,

she’s Mr. Javier’s daughter too. What right do you have to punish her?”

“Huh?” Betty chuckled at the absurdity of it all, placing her hand on her hip and glaring at

the two of them.”

You idiot, I didn’t know you had an ally in this house!”

“N-Nina, just leave me alone! Run!” Lauren hurriedly covered Nina’s mouth, knowing she

would be powerless to protect Nina if Betty flew into a rage. She knew what Betty was

capable of doing.

“I’m not leaving!” Nina clung to Lauren tightly and stared at Betty through her tears. “I

won’t abandon you, even if it means I’m blacklisted in Solana City! Ms. Betty, do you

realize you’ve broken the law? You

shouldn’t have hit your sister! That’s against the law.”

“Ahahaha! How hilarious! Who do you think you are, raising your voice at me?” Betty

cackled and

Incensed, and a few were even itching to retaliate, but others held them back.

Each was well aware of the Becketts’ influence in Solana City. Acting on impulse might

cost them their livelihoods in the city permanently.

Despite their anger at Betty, they were just servants who had to think twice for the sake of

their jobs and

their families.

“Betty Beckett!” Lauren growled. She could tolerate Betty hitting her, but she was

enraged when Nina got hurt as well. Anger blazed like wildfire in her eyes.

Betty was stunned by Lauren’s rare temper and screamed back, “What? Did you just call

me by my full

name?”

She thought Lauren must have lost her mind to defend a mere servant..
