Yuliana’s terror and shock outweighed the pain in her cheek. Her eyes showed fear as she spoke. “No, I’m her sister! She misunderstood a lot of things. Some were done by my mother, not me. Lucian, please don’t misunderstand me!”

She was aware that Roxanne had the support of Lucian, so confronting Roxanne head-on would only lead to humiliation. Thus, she hoped that Lucian would spare her if she sounded aggrieved.

Lucian’s face darkened when he heard her pleas, for he found her remark grating to his ears. “Who are you to address me by my name? We’re not related in any way! My wife has never acknowledged you as her sister!” he declared.

Roxanne was similarly appalled by Yuliana’s shameless behavior, and anger boiled within her as she snarled, “Listen, Yuliana. Even if we share the same last name, I don’t have a sister like you. If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll tear your mouth apart!”

The ingratiating smile on Yuliana’s lips froze. Countless thoughts raced through her mind, but eventually, she clenched her jaw and caved in. “Fine. I won’t call you by your name, then. Mr. and Mrs. Farwell, are you planning on beating me to death in public?” Lucian was surprised to see how fast her attitude changed.

“Beat you to death? You don’t deserve my time. You’d better stop scheming against my wife, or I’ll make sure your life becomes a living hell!” Lucian warned, so annoyed that he almost felt like laughing. He then shot Roxanne a reassuring look.

After thinking it through, Roxanne knew that it was pointless to slap someone like Yuliana. It was not like a few slaps could knock any sense into her. Her fury slowly faded into thin air. A hint of arrogance flashed across her gaze as she gave a dismissive wave. “You may scram now, Yuliana!”

That was the most humiliating moment in Yuliana’s life, ever. She was consumed by such intense fury that her heart was wrenching with anger. Gritting her teeth, she wanted nothing more than to tear Roxanne into pieces.

However, her last bit of rationality urged her to leave. Staying meant enduring more of Roxanne’s slaps. In the end, she shot Roxanne a vicious glare and spun on her heels to hasten away.

D*mn it, d*mn it, d*mn it! Roxanne, I won’t forget this. I swear I’ll make you experience endless humiliation and anguish!

After regaining her composure, Roxanne realized her adrenaline level had returned to normal, causing her to feel drained all of a sudden. Seeing that, Lucian grabbed her arm so she could lean on him for support.

“Are you okay?” Roxanne nodded and flashed a satisfied grin. “I’m sorry for losing my temper. When I saw Yuliana, all I could think about was getting revenge.”

“I understand. You don’t have to explain anything,” said Lucian, silently making up his mind. The security guards of the hotel returned to their positions after Roxanne got into the car, and the guests who were hoping to witness the unfolding drama were disappointed.

When Lucian drove Roxanne home, the children were there, too. Leaving Roxanne to spend time with the kids, he entered his study to give Cayden a call. Lucian issued a cold command, “Listen carefully. Use whatever means necessary to ensure that Yuliana Jarvis never sets foot in Horington again.”

Cayden hadn’t heard his employer speak with such seriousness in a while, so he responded promptly, “Understood. I’ll take care of it immediately.” Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

After the call ended, Lucian emerged from his study composedly and joined Roxanne in playing with the children.
