“Vanessa, that’s enough! Suzy has already suffered enough because of you—what more do you want? Get out, now!” Nathan hadn’t expected Vanessa to be hurt and bleeding, but he still shouted at her harshly.

Vanessa slowly lifted her head, blood streaming down the side of her face, her eyes bloodshot, making her entire face look shockingly tragic.

“Ah, blood! Sister!” Susanna was terrified and screamed, clinging tightly to Nathan. “Nate, don’t me my sister anymore. It’s all my fault, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have taken your love away, otherwise my sister wouldn’t treat me like this. I really regret it.”

She began to sob uncontrobly.

At that moment, Nathan’s angry gaze also caught sight of the blood on Vanessa’s face, and he suddenly panicked.

In his rage, he had worried that Vanessa might hurt Susanna again, so he hadn’t thought much and had rushed over to drag her away, not realizing how much force he used, nor that he would injure Vanessa’s head.

“Nathan, one day, you will pay the price for what you have done today.” Vanessa’s bloodshot eyes were eerily calm, her pale face terrifyinglyposed as she spoke each word with chilling indifference.

Nathan tried to get up and reach for her, but Susanna clung tightly to his waist, crying, “Nate, don’t me my sister. Her family raised me, I owe them so much. Even if she takes my life, I have noints. This is my debt to her. In this world, I have no parents or family, only you…”

Although she kept saying she didn’t me Vanessa, herst sentence clearly implied, “I have no parents, only you, so you must stand up for me.”

Nathan looked at Vanessa, and the cold rejection on her face, along with the obvious hostility in her icy gaze, reignited his anger. His eyes grew cold once more.

“Suzy, don’t worry. This is a society governed byw, and I will make sure you get justice. Vanessa, you brought this on yourself. Over the years, haven’t you done enough cruel things to Suzy? Now you want to take revenge on her again. Just look at your vicious face-it’s truly disgusting.”

Vanessa felt as if her heart had been torn open, leaving a wound that could never heal.

A sorrowful smile appeared at the corner of her lips.

“Nathan, the thing I regret most in this life is marrying you. Yes, this is a society ruled byw, and there are ces to seek justice. So, I have already called the police about this matter. I believe the police will give me a fair and just oue.”

She struggled to her feet.

Although she didn’t want to cause trouble, she had her own principles and boundaries!

When trouble truly came to her, she would not shy away-she would fight with all her strength.

She staggered as she walked toward the door.

A fleeting trace of panic shed in Susanna’s eyes.

Vanessa actually dared to call the police! This was something Susanna

had never expected.

“Nate, please ask my sister not to call the police. I already said I won’t me her. If the police get involved, this will be a huge scandal. After all, she’s Mrs. Powell, and it would damage the reputation of the Powell Group.” She tugged at Nathan’s sleeve, speaking considerately and sensibly.

Nathan was currently trying his best to secure the Brentford Project, so of course he didn’t want any major trouble.

“Vanessa, do you think this is something to be proud of? You actually have the nerve to call the police! Your suicide attempt already caused a huge uproar before-how long are you going to keep this up?” He suddenly stood up, rushed over, and grabbed Vanessa, shouting angrily.

With a loud “smack,” before he could finish speaking, Vanessa turned around and, using all her strength, pped him hard across the face.

Nathan’s face was knocked to one side by the blow.

“Nathan, it’s over between us. Take care of yourself. I will never admit to things I haven’t done, and I will never let anyone bully or wrong me. I’m telling you, don’t ever provoke me again.” Vanessa’s face was half- covered in blood, looking terrifying, her voice sharp and resolute.

She turned and walked toward the door.

Perhaps she had just used up all her strength, because as she was about to step over the threshold, her body suddenly copsed toward the ground. But just as she was about to fall-

Suddenly, a pair ofrge, well-defined hands gripped her delicate shoulders firmly and pulled her into a broad, solid chest.

Nathan, still reeling from the p, never imagined Vanessa would dare
