A Rose 407
Upon hearing Alice’s shameless words, Yvette’s gaze grew even colder. “You deserve far worse than what you did to Madison.”
Yvette was fiercely protective of those close to her. If Alice had the nerve to harm someone she cared about, she had to be ready to face the brutal consequences.
Alice’s eyes widened in disbelief as the truth dawned on her. “So, you are why the Murray family pulled out their investment. You did it to get back at me?”
Yvette nodded, her tone nonchalant. “Yes. And this is just the beginning.”
Whatever Alice did to Madison, Yvette would ensure Alice paid for it a hundredfold.
“You… You wretched bitch! You’ve ruined my family!” Alice lost control and suddenly lunged at Yvette. Her
hands stretched to claw at the latter’s face.
“You worthless-”
Just then, Yara appeared, her expression darkening as she took in the scene. She rushed forward, instinctively pulling Yvette behind her.
“Yvette, don’t be afraid. I’m here to protect you!”
Alice hadn’t expected Yara’s sudden appearance, and the shock of it snapped her back to reality. She froze, no longer daring to move forward.
Molly, who had followed closely behind, saw what was happening, and her face paled. She shot her daughter a furious glare before quickly stepping forward, trying to smooth things over.
“Mrs. Murray, there must’ve been a misunderstanding.”
Unlike the gentle tone she had with Yvette, Yara turned to both Molly and Alice with a fierce glare, exuding the authority of a true matriarch.
“Get out of my house! Let me make one thing clear–the Murray family will not only pull our investment in the Robertson family, we’re blacklisting you completely. Your family shall head for bankruptcy! How dare you lay a hand on my precious daughter? I’ll make sure you pay for this.”
“Mrs. Murray…” Molly tried to plead, but before she could finish, Yara had already called for security.
The guards quickly arrived and forcefully escorted Molly and Alice out of Murray Manor. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
Molly had never been so humiliated in her life. Seething with rage, she turned to Alice and slapped her hard across the face.
“I told you to get close to Ms. Murray. You fool! Not only did you mess it up, but you’ve also made the Murray family hate us to the core!”
“Mom, it’s all that wretched Yvette’s fault.” Alice whimpered, clutching her face as she started to cry. She’s the one who ruined our family…”
“Shut up!” Molly snapped, her eyes filled with fury. “The Murray family dotes on Yvette, and you still dare insult her? Do you want to make things even worse for us?
“The Murray family alone can push us to the brink of bankruptcy. Don’t forget they are engaged to the Quinn family. If the Murrays have the Quinns take action, we’ll be destroyed.”
Molly continued in frustration, “You’ve ruined any chance we had with the Murray family. Now, with the investment gone, you shall be married off to Mr. Luiz.”
“No! Mom, please…” Alice’s body trembled with fear, and she sobbed even harder. “Please, don’t make me marry Mr. Luiz.”
Benedict Luiz was in his 40s–old, ugly, and known for his violent tendencies. He’d already been through three wives, all dead. If she were to marry him, her life would be over.
“You don’t have a choice!”
