NOVPUBChapter 1193: 538 Apology (First Update)_4 Chapter 1193: 538 Apology (First Update)_4 Vanessa Aria’s right arm was broken, causing a pain so severe, it felt as if it burrowed into her heart and lungs with every movement.
Now, she couldn’t even run away, she underwent the humiliation of public ridicule from an old woman, it was an absolute disgrace.
Madam Dankworth didn’t spare her any dignity.
She had seized a handle on Vanessa Aria, using it as a means of blackmail, effectively forcing the Aria family into concession.
No matter what changes occurred in the scenario, Vanessa Aria had wronged the Dankworth family, and that was enough.
Catherine Liam’s mind was in turmoil as she watched Madam Dankworth force clothes on Vanessa Aria.
Suddenly, she said, “Madam, you are misunderstanding.
...
What Virginia does in her room with her fiancé is not our business.
Their intimate relations are just the usual romance and normal human behaviour.”
Madam Dankworth curled her lips corner and turned to look at Larisa Dankworth, “Was it Violetta Gartia?”
Larisa’s dull gaze flickered, and she vigorously shook her head.
The smile on Madam Dankworth’s face turned more sarcastic, “No wonder she needed to cover it up.
If this gets out, your esteemed Aria family’s reputation will be poked full of holes.
So much for a model lady, she’s but a whore.”
Catherine’s face went pale.
What wasn’t it Violetta Gartia?
She had clearly seen her entering the room herself.
Did that woman deceive her?
Having hastily thrown a piece of clothing around Vanessa Arai, Madam Dankworth dragged her out.
Vanessa, fuming, snapped, “Let go of me, you pious old hag, I am the mistress of the Aria family.
Dare to humiliate me like this and you’re finished.”
“Ms.
Aria, save your breath.
You will have ample time to defend yourself when we get to Madam Aria.” Madam Dankworth’s grip was strong and without allowing any objections, she pulled Vanessa Aria off.
“Hold on.” Catherine rushed over, “Madam Dankworth, we can talk things through, don’t be so impulsive.”
Madam Dankworth scoffed, “Madam Aria, so this is the kind of upbringing your Aria family provides.
I’ve truly seen it all today.
This girl is the jewel of our family, it is not your place to humiliate her.
I demand an explanation for today’s events.”
Madam Dankworth had been seething, this reckless girl was a disgrace.
Having finally found something to pin her down, she had to make good use of it.
Catherine snapped her thighs, “It’s over, all is lost.”
At this point, the main hall was already in complete chaos.
Not long ago, Isaac White had rushed in, exclaiming that Sheila Cook and Edric Lewis were kidnapped.
After the shock had passed the crowd, the old Madam decisively called the police and mobilised everyone from the Aria family to look for her whereabouts.
Madam Lewis: promptly on her feet, said, “Madam, if something happens to my Edric in your Aria family, can your family bear the responsibility?”
“Madam, please calm down, young Edric is bound for good fortune, nothing will happen to him.”
Cello Cook, however, was calm as if Sheila Cook wasn’t his daughter.
Madam Lewis narrowed her eyes and swept her gaze around the room before grimly demanding, “Where is Ms.
Aria?”
Matthew Aria approached, wiping the sweat off his forehead, “Madam, my sister!.”
“What happened?” Peter Aria and Violetta Gartia entered, one after the other.
Matthew Aria, looking at them like a lifesaver, rushed over, “Where have you been?
Something big happened, Ms.
Cook and Mr.
Edric have been kidnapped at May Forest.”
“Kidnapped?” Peter frowned.
Madam Lewis swept a tea cup off the table, furiously demanding, “I’ll ask you again, where is Vanessa Aria?”
Matthew Aria was stunned, “What…
what does this have to do with Vanessa?”
“Of course, it does, a few days ago, my Edric was almost hit by a car at the intersection of Branch Paul Mountain.
If it hadn’t been for someone who appeared in time to save Edric, he’d already been on the brink of life and death.
The person who caused the accident is none other than the good daughter you Aria family raised.
What, you want to repeat your old tricks again?
I’m telling you, if anything happens to my Edric, I’ll have your entire Aria family pay with their lives.”
Madam Lewis’s imposing manner made everyone tremble with each word.
This was the oppressive force exerted by those in power.
Virginia Fang scanned the corner of her mouth, sipped her tea leisurely.
The tea wasn’t bad.
Cello Cook said calmly, “If something were to happen to my daughter, I’m sorry Mr Aria and Madam Aria, but your entire Aria family added together wouldn’t be worth a single hair from my daughter’s head.”
The quieter he was, the more chilling.
This man was ruthless.
“Madam Lewis, how can you be certain that Ms.
Aria is the one responsible?
She’s just an innocent, frail woman.
Moreover, she has no conflicts or grudges with the Lewis family.
Why would she harm young Lewis?
She and the Cook family are even less likely to hold a grudge.
Are you sure this isn’t a misunderstanding?”
Caleb White frowned at the woman by his side and lowered his voice, “Why are you getting involved?”
Brenda Lopez ignored him and stood up, “Is that so, Madam Lewis?”
Madam Lewis scoffed coldly, “Misunderstanding?
It’s easy for Madam White to say this because she doesn’t have to suffer. 𝓃𝓸𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
If it were your son in trouble, would you speak like this?
Oh, I forgot.
You don’t have a son.”
Brenda’s face paled as Madam Lewis laid bare her shortcoming publicly.
It was difficult to swallow this insult, but it didn’t matter.
Waiting for her would be endless pain.
So what if she had a son?
The greatest pain of life is gaining and then losing.
Virginia Frost curled her lips, lowered her eyes, her fingers stroking the embroidered phoenix on the hem of her dress.
The phoenix’s eye was set with a green tourmaline, exquisite and magnificent, ready to soar into the sky.
“Madam Aria, you must explain to me today.
This is the good daughter you raised.” Madam Dankworth’s questioning voice drifted in from outside the door, clearly reaching the ears of everyone present.
Virginia Frost narrowed her eyes and looked over.
