    Chapter 970 Justice!


    But what kind of hatred could make Selena defy thews of nature and morality and want to see


    Daphne die without peace of mind?


    Selena had promised her before that she wouldn''ty a hand on Daphne.


    Unless...


    Leon''s sharp gaze fixed on the crying Daphne as he suddenly asked, "Grandma, how did Aunt Nevaeh


    die?"


    Daphne''s body suddenly stiffened, something shed through her eyes in an instant as she cried out,


    "Nevaeh died of illness, that''s what Selena told me..."


    Leon caught the strange moment in Daphne''s eyes and his heart suddenly chilled.


    He stared at the old woman before him as if meeting his grandmother for the first time.


    Under his gaze, Daphne moved her eyes away and inexplicably felt like trembling. "Why do you ask


    about these things from the past? What you should be thinking about now is how to save Penelope..."


    "The Riddle family won''t lift a finger to save Penelope!" Leon''s tone was icy. "She deserves to die!"


    Before Daphne could protest and cry, Leon waved his hand and the driver forcibly took Daphne onto


    the car, leaving the Turner family.


    Leon took a deep breath and looked up at the Turner family gate. He instructed his assistant, "Call


    Hattie''s therapist."


    Then, he too left in his car.


    Inside the Turner family gate, Patrick stood in the shadows, coldly watching the Riddle family leave. He


    said in a cold voice, "Contact Uncle Fu and the others... I want the Riddle family to hold Daphne down


    and personally apologize to Selena!"


    "Yes!"


    ...


    Daphne was forcibly taken back to the Riddle family by Leon. She had never been treated like this


    before, and she felt both wronged and resentful. As soon as she entered the door, she found her two


    sons and cried and scolded them frantically.


    Kaitlyn turned pale when she heard Daphne say that Selena wanted to have her killed.


    Hunter was furious and turned to angrily say, "Big brother, is this the son you raised? He''s helping


    those disobedient and unfilial children, treating his own grandmother like this?"


    Issac frowned and stared at Daphne. "So, mother, you went to the Turner family''s gate and insulted


    and beat up the Turner family''s daughter for the sake of Penelope?"


    Daphne was taken aback and seemed to have just remembered that Selena had such an identity. Her


    eyes went nk and she said angrily, "If she had not been disrespectful to me, how could I have been


    provoked to hit her? I just wanted her to let Penelope go... besides, I didn''t even hit her..."


    Issac''s face darkened as he stared at Daphne, feeling for the first time that his own mother was


    unreasonable. Hunter angrily said, "Issac, is what you''re saying even humannguage? Filial piety


    a big deal? You''re as ungrateful as your disobedient son. Both of you are like ungrateful wretches who


    can''t be raised properly!"


    Issac nced at Hunter and sneered, "Since my younger brother is so filial, he must be happy to help


    our mother and bear the retaliation from the Anderson family and the Turner family."


    Hunter''s expression changed, "Retaliation just because their grandmother scolded them? That''s unfilial


    and rebellious!"


    Issac chuckled mockingly and turned to leave, "It''s a pity that when facing that unfilial and rebellious


    wretch, the Riddle family can only rely on their blood ties to curse and swear at them..."


    Erica looked at her husband walking away and nced coldly at Manny, who stood behind Hunter with


    his head bowed, before following Issac out.


    Daphne watched her eldest son leave, filled with rage, "A bunch of ungrateful children!"


    Hunter hurriedlyforted his mother, "Mother, don''t worry. Your son will definitely teach those two


    disrespectful brats a lesson..."


    "Is that so?" Hunter''s words were cut off by a furiousughtering from outside the door. They all


    looked up and saw Lady Lauren rudely pushing aside a servant, leading a group of high societydies


    into the Riddle family estate.


    As Hunter''s gaze swept over the group of gloomy-faced socialites behind her, his expression changed


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    slightly. He greeted her politely, "Lady Lauren, Melissa, Savannah, what brings you here to visit the


    Riddle family today..."


    "I heard that Daphne used her seniority to openly enter the Turner family''s gate and humiliate and beat


    up my Anderson family daughter-inw," Lady Lauren interrupted with a smile, but there was no humor


    in her eyes. "Daphne is an elder after all, it wouldn''t look good for her to meet me face-to-face, so I


    came to the Riddle family personally to ask, Daphne, what right and ability do you have toy your


    hands on someone from my Anderson family?"


    Daphne''s face turned pale, and she opened her mouth to retort but couldn''t find the words.


    Although she didn''t actually hit Selena, the fact remains that sheid hands on her. As an elder, Lady


    Lauren''s public questioning left her with no way to save face, and she kept a calm expression without


    saying a word.


    Hunter angrily said, "Selena is my mother''s granddaughter. My mother just said a few words to her, but


    you all came over here making a big fuss. It''s really overreacting!"


    Lady Lauren''s smile grew wider on her face, "You don''t have to defend the Riddle family. Selena has


    never acknowledged having any rtives from your family."


    "She was neither raised nor nurtured by you, where does the Riddle family get the nerve to im they


    are Selena''s rtives?"


    Ignoring Daphne''s unpleasant expression, Lady Lauren continued, "Daphne, I already told youst time


    that the Riddle family doesn''t need Selena, the Anderson family and the Turner family do."


    "You treat Selena like grass, but we treasure her like a gem. You clearly know that Selena is a priceless


    treasure to the Turner family and the Anderson family, but you still dare to treat her like this. Are you


    representing the Riddle family by openly provoking the Turner family and the Anderson family?"


    Daphne''s face suddenly changed.


    Even Hunter''s face turned pale in an instant. The Riddle family couldn''t afford to confront both the


    Anderson family and the Turner family at the same time. While the Riddle family held wealth, the


    Anderson family and the Turner family held power. Once the Turner family and the Anderson family


    teamed up, they could easily be an obstacle for the Riddle family... The Riddle family''s losses


    would be incalcble.


    Melissa looked at Daphne with disgust, "How could a girl as kind and strong as Nevaeh have a mother


    like you?"


    Savannah sneered, "Haven''t Nevaeh''s affairs served as a warning to you? You can''t reason with


    Daphne, the best way is to make her suffer as well!"


    Daphne was so angry that a group of younger rtives were causing trouble on her own turf, and was


    about to m the table and throw a tantrum when a Riddle family servant rushed in hurriedly.


    "Madam, it''s not good! Miss Penelope has been beaten by a group of prisoners in the prison! It''s said


    that she is seriously injured and has fallen into aa..."


    Daphne felt nk in her mind.
