Loraine, a woman from humble origins, has ascended to the upper class, a fitting match for Marco, the
illegitimate child. They are destined for failure!”
She created a ruckus, shouting, “Can you hear me? Release me!”
The security guards, wearing poker faces, obediently let her go, dropping her onto the floor of the Bryant
family’s residence hall.
Marina’s outcry of pain echoed through the house, drawing the attention of Liza who was upstairs.
Liza descended, leaning on her cane, recognized Marco’s men, and was taken aback. Inquisitively, she asked,
“What's happened here?”
The security guards relayed the incident of Marina's outburst at the shareholders’ meeting and her consequent
expulsion by Marco. With every revelation, Liza's shock grew, turning into a profound rage. She raised her cane,

It was clear her intention was to cause serious injury.
Marina’s face blanched with terror and, casting aside her dignity, she scrambled away, wailing, “Mother, save
me! Grandma is out to kill me!”
Hearing Marina's pleas, Laura swiftly cdownstairs, throwing herself protectively in front of Marina and fixing
a fierce glare at Liza.
“Mom, Marina is your endearing granddaughter! What has she done to deserve this? Why would you want to
beat her so brutally? She’s not your child, you may not care, but | do! If you want to hit someone, hit me!”
Regaining her composure, Liza didn’t hesitate to strike Laura's back with her cane, then coldly scoffed, “Do you
believe | wouldn't dare harm you? The two of you, mother and daughter, plotted together to deceive me! Marina
dared to cause a stir at the shareholders’ meeting.

It's evident tothat you and your daughter orchestrated the rumors about the illegitimate child!”
The cane’s strike missed its target partially, half its force hitting
Laura’s back, and the other half crashing into the coffee table, leaving a dreadful crack.
Laura felt a sharp pain in her back, close to blacking out. She had never expected Liza to actually try to hurt her
lethally. Shaking, she turned back and cried out through tears, “Mom, why don’t you just finish us off!”
Marina was petrified and dared not move, clinging to Laura in silence.
Laura brushed away her tears and continued to scream, “After all, life under Marco's scrutiny is unbearable. It
seems we are doomed. Perhaps it would be better if you simply beat us to death!”

Although Liza was remarkably strong for her age, she was still aging, and her hand trembled after the assault.
Hearing Laura's words, she clutched her chest and shook even more. With the aid of a housemaid, she managed
not to fall.
It took a moment for Liza to regain her breath. Pointing at the two of them, she scolded, “You ungrateful
wretches! I'm utterly disheartened by you both. Alright then. If you can’t live within the Bryant family, why don’t
you go out and beg on the streets!”
Seeing that Liza seemed to mean her words this time, both of them blanched with fear. Marina cried out,
“Grandma, | am your granddaughter. You can’t be so harsh on me!”
Laura, ignoring her own pain, crawled to Liza's feet and pleaded,
“Mother, what | said earlier was out of rage. You can’t abandonand
Marina. We are part of the Bryant family, after all!”
