Chapter 1016: Chapter 1015

After ending the call, Rosemary knew Clark had been eavesdropping the whole time and she didn’t bother to hide it.

"So, Lucas and his wife might be the masterminds behind this?" Clark recalled the recent New Year, when his aunt and her new driver’s peculiar behavior raised eyebrows. "If it really is them, imagine how

heartbroken Grandma, Grandpa, and our parents would be."

"We don’t have solid evidence against them; it’s just a suspicion. Don’t take it to heart, Clark. Actually, I hope we’re wrong."

The following afternoon. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

When Diana went to visit her mother in the hospital, she noticed that Serena, from the adjacent room, was getting ready to be discharged.

June was packing Serena’s things while Dora and a nurse helped Serena into a wheelchair. Their light laughter and conversation stung Diana deeply.

She marched in and slapped Serena hard across the face.

"Miss Diana." Dora gasped in shock, "Serena is still very weak."

"And what about my mother?" Diana couldn’t believe her family’s employees were now taking Serena’s side!

She looked down at Serena in the wheelchair, remembering how her brother had knelt on the patio for two hours yesterday to save this wretch. She was furious and slapped Serena twice more.

Serena was both angry and humiliated. If it weren’t for the others present, she would have lunged at Diana.

"You stressed my mother into a heart attack, and I haven’t even begun to settle that score with you!"

Diana yanked Serena’s hair, saying in a rage, "Do you have no shame? I’ve made it clear our family doesn’t welcome you, yet you still worm your way around my brother. Where is your dignity?"

"Miss Diana." Dora tried to intervene.

But Diana warned furiously, "Anyone who dares interfere today won’t be able to set foot in Summerfield again!"

June, who was packing, tried to sneak a call to Martin but Diana caught her, "Go on, try it!"

The two employees and the nurses immediately bowed their heads and stood aside, too frightened to make a move.

Diana held Serena’s hair with one hand and smacked her face with the other. The slaps fell like a relentless downpour, showing no mercy.

"Diana, you’re insane." Serena, having just recovered from a serious illness, was no match for her.

Even flailing with her feeble arms, she couldn’t stop the onslaught.

"Miss Diana, please stop, you’ll kill her." Dora fell to her knees, begging.

"Serena’s just recovered; she’s as fragile as a paper doll." a nurse interjected, pleading.

From an initial attempt at resistance, Serena ended up clutching her head, trying to shield herself.

The pointed heels struck her, leaving her with unbearable pain, marking her arms, her legs - each blow a testament to Diana’s wrath.

"Martin, save me!" Despite shielding her head and face, Serena didn’t cease her cries for help within the hospital room, "Martin, come quick, your sister’s gone mad."

Diana’s rage intensified, her stiletto heel aimed menacingly at Serena’s unprotected head.

The next second, however, the heel didn’t make its intended contact; instead, it was caught firmly by Martin’s hand.

"Martin, where did you.go?" Serena immediately clung to Martin, her tears flowing freely, "I was so scared I’d never see you again."

Diana was sickened by the display.

"What the hell are you doing?" Martin glared at his sister, furious beyond reason. He had only stepped out to handle some paperwork, and in the blink of an eye, chaos had erupted. What infuriated him even more was the sight of the two maids and nurses standing by idly while his sister attempted to bludgeon his girlfriend with her shoes!

Wielding her stiletto like a dagger, Diana accused, "Mom’s life is hanging by a thread, and have you, her son, shown any concern? This tramp has caused all this suffering, and you think I’ll stand by? How

dare she shamelessly force her way into the Cooper family? Doesn’t she need to pay any price for her brazenness? The little discomfort she’s experiencing is nothing compared to what Mom’s going

through!"

"Martin, let’s call off the engagement. I can’t bear this burden any longer." Serena whimpered from her wheelchair, looking the picture of vulnerability, "I want nothing more than for your mom to live a long,

healthy life. Your sister has it all wrong. Your mother’s heart attack was something none of us wanted to see."

"Save your crocodile tears for someone who buys them." Diana looked as if she wanted to lunge forward and strike again.
