The loud sound echoed in the room.
She was stunned, her face burning with pain.
Over the years in the entertainment industry, she had to control her diet and watch her weight. As a
result, her body was frail. Moreover, she had no martial arts skills and could not resist Sheena’s
strength.
Sheena gripped She’s face tightly, staring coldly at her, her tone proud.
“She Lawson, you still don’t understand me well enough. You thought by provoking me, I’d get
emotional, my hands would shake, and my heart would rage, affecting my babies?
“Well, you’re wrong. I might feel angry, but I never let it simmer overnight. If you annoy me, I’ll deal with
you first, no matter who you are!”
With those words, another two psnded harshly on She’s delicate face.
She winced in pain, tears welling up in her eyes.
Unable to break free, she could only cry out, “Howard! Howard, save me!”
Sheena yanked She’s hair back, her sarcasm cutting deeper.
“She, the person outside has doted on me for over twenty years. Let’s see who he’ll be more
concerned about when hees in.”
She froze, sensing trouble.
In a few minutes, Howard rushed in, rmed by themotion.
The moment Howard entered, Sheena pushed She out and fell back herself.
“Nana!” Howard rushed to Sheena,pletely ignoring She on the floor.
Just before Sheena hit the ground, Howard caught her in his arms, holding her tightly.
He overheard the ps just now and quickly checked Sheena’s face for injuries, relieved to see her
complexion still fair and unharmed.
Then, he discreetly held her right hand, soothing the redness caused by hitting someone.
Sheena felt something as Howard touched her hand, giving him a puzzled look.
He gently helped her stand straight before calmly turning to the distressed She on the floor.
His voice returned to its usual calm tone as he asked, “What’s going on? Everything was fine. Why did
you suddenly fight?”
She immediately shrank into Howard’s embrace, covering her bleeding lip, tears streaming down
her face.

“Howard, Sheena said I stole everyone’s affection, and she’s mad that I told you all that she’s a secret
love child between Auntie Sophia and a prisoner. She wanted to teach me a lesson.”
Howard frowned and turned to Sheena, his tone grave.
“Nana, you’re in the wrong here. After all, she’s the youngest sister in the family now. You should go
easier on her.”
Sheena smirked as she opened her purse, pulling out a thousand dors in cash and casually throwing
it at She’s face.
“I’ve already hit her, so I’ll take responsibility.”
With a mocking toss of the money, she turned and walked away without looking back.
As Sheena left, Howard grabbed She’s cheeks, his grip firm.
Even though he was speaking words of concern, his tone was indifferent.
“Let me see how bad it is.”
“Ow…” She winced in pain, furrowing her brows. “Howard, be gentle, it hurts.”
Howard loosened his grip, his expression nk.
“It’s not too bad. It’s just swollen. Apply an ice pack and use some anti–inmmatory cream when you
go back. You’ll be fine.”

She covered her face, tears starting to flow again as sheined, “Howard, does Sheena really
hate me that much? I just wanted her to apany me to pick out a dress. What did I do wrong?”
Howard earnestly lectured her, “She’s your elder sister. You should respect her, neverin, and
don’t go tattling back. Understand?”
