The loud sound echoed in the room.
Sheila was stunned, her face burning with pain.
Over the years in the entertainment industry, she had to control her diet and watch her weight. As a result, her body was frail. Moreover, she had no martial arts skills and could not resist Sheena’s strength.
Sheena gripped Sheila’s face tightly, staring coldly at her, her tone proud.
“Sheila Lawson, you still don’t understand me well enough. You thought by provoking me, I’d get emotional, my hands would shake, and my heart would rage, affecting my babies?
“Well, you're wrong. | might feel angry, but | never let it simmer overnight. If you annoy me, I'll deal with you first, no matter who you are!”
With those words, another two slaps landed harshly on Sheila’s delicate face.
Sheila winced in pain, tears welling up in her eyes.
Unable to break free, she could only cry out, “Howard! Howard, save me!”
Sheena yanked Sheila’s hair back, her sarcasm cutting deeper.
“Sheila, the person outside has doted on me for over twenty years. Let’s see who he'll be more concerned about when he comes in.”
Sheila froze, sensing trouble.
In a few minutes, Howard rushed in, alarmed by the commotion.
The moment Howard entered, Sheena pushed Sheila out and fell back herself. “Nana!” Howard rushed to Sheena, completely ignoring Sheila on the floor.
Just before Sheena hit the ground, Howard caught her in his arms, holding her tightly.
He overheard the slaps just now and quickly checked Sheena’s face for injuries, relieved to see her complexion still fair and unharmed.
Then, he discreetly held her right hand, soothing the redness caused by hitting someone.
Sheena felt something as Howard touched her hand, giving him a puzzled look.
He gently helped her stand straight before calmly turning to the distressed Sheila on the floor.
His voice returned to its usual calm tone as he asked, “What's going on? Everything was fine. Why did you suddenly fight?” Sheila immediately shrank into Howard’s embrace, covering her bleeding lip, tears streaming down
her face.

“Howard, Sheena said | stole everyone’s affection, and she’s mad that | told you all that she’s a secret love child between Auntie Sophia and a prisoner. She wanted to teach me a lesson.”
Howard frowned and turned to Sheena, his tone grave.
“Nana, you're in the wrong here. After all, she’s the youngest sister in the family now. You should go easier on her.”
Sheena smirked as she opened her purse, pulling out a thousand dollars in cash and casually throwing it at Sheila’s face. “I've already hit her, so I'll take responsibility.”
With a mocking toss of the money, she turned and walked away without looking back.
As Sheena left, Howard grabbed Sheila’s cheeks, his grip firm.
Even though he was speaking words of concern, his tone was indifferent.
“Let me see how bad it is.”
“Ow...” Sheila winced in pain, furrowing her brows. “Howard, be gentle, it hurts.”
Howard loosened his grip, his expression blank.
“It's not too bad. It’s just swollen. Apply an ice pack and use some anti-inflammatory cream when you go back. You'll be fine.” The content is on noveldrama.org! Read the latest chapter there!

Howard earnestly lectured her, “She's your elder sister. You should respect her, never complain, and don’t go tattling back. Understand?” The content is on noveldrama.org! Read the latest chapter there!
