Chapter 247 "Shut your mouth, you old hag" Anthea cursed For years, Gemma had been the one dishing out insults, targeting whoever she fancied without a hint of pushback. But today the tables had turned With a fire in her belly, Gemma leaped up. "You little tramp! Bastard child! Why don't you just drop dead..." In her fury, she shoved Anthea hard.

Anthea, however, didn't dodge. She didn't retaliate. She simply let Gemma's push alam her against the wall, careful to control the impact.

was neither too soft nor too hard, just enough to draw blood from her forehead.

Anthea's skin was pale, so any injury stood out starkly. Now she looked positively ghastly "Anniel" Carole rushed over and enveloped Anthea in her arms "Mom! It hurts so much!" Anthea clung to Carole, unleashing her inner queen, as she started to whimper Nobody had anticipated this chaotic tum of events.

“It's just a small cut! It's not like she's gonna diel" Gemma glared at Anthea with contempt. "You little bastard! I bet you did this on purpose!" Just a moment ago, Anthea was swinging those feather dusters with such force, how was it that she had suddenly becso frail? "My daughter is not a bastard! She is not!" Carole couldn't hold back any longer, and she roared, "Get out! All of you, get out of here X now "Not without a hundred million bucks! We won't leave Gemma rolled her eyes at Carole.

Carole's daughter was too soft, always caving in. For all her rage, Carole was probably already figuring out how to transfer them the money.

Carole helped Anthea to the sola and made a beeline for the kitchen.

When she returned, a butcher knife was gripped firmly in her hand Gemma, Felton, and Saul and Vanessa were taken aback in shock "Carole! Stop this madness! Murder is a crime! I'm your brother, she's your sister-in-law, and they are your parents!" Saul tried to with her.

o reason Carole just stared at these four so-called family members, "You're not my brother! I have no brother! And as for them, they don't desenj to be my parents! They say that if you raise a child without care, you owe them nothing. Today, I'm cutting off all ties!" With that Carole raised the knife and brought it down with a swift motion.

A segment of her finger dropped to the floor The room fell into a haunting silence.

Even Anthea was taken aback by her mother's action She never thought Carole would harm herself, "Mom!" Anthea rushed to her side.

Tm okay, honey!" Carole, her face ashen, locked eyes with Gemma, Felton, Saul, and Vanessa, "From this day forward, I am Carole and nothing more to you people! If you dare disturband my daughter again, for every one of you that comes, one will fall at my handi Bring two, and I'll take down a pair! Until there's none of you left! If it comes to it, we'll all die together! I'm tired of living anyway!" With that, Carole slammed the knife into the wooden dining table, where the bloody finger lay beside it, a chilling testament to her resolve.

Gemma, Felton, and the others trembled with fear.

They had only cfor smoney. They never expected things to escalate like this.

And they certainly didn't expect Carole to be so ruthless, even to the point of hurting herself. If she could do that to herself, what wouldn't she do to them? Nobody doubted her words.

What was money compared to life? The intruders exchanged fearful glances before fleeing, scared that Carole might chase them down with the knife.

Once they were gone. Carole exhaled in relief.

After calling emergency services, Anthea grabbed a first aid kit anch began tending to her mother's wound, her vision blurred by tears. "Mom, are you okay? Does it hurt?" For the first tin her life, Anthea fell the full force of maternal love and understood the saying. "Though women are gentle, a mother is fierce."

This was the first tCarole had seen Anthea cry, and she comforted her with a smile, "I'm fine, sweetheart, it doesn't hurt at all! Stop crying, Annie. And how's your head? Does it still hurt?"

Tm not in pain, not at alll I'm so sorry, Mom I could have moved away, th shouldn't have let it happen!" Anthea was filled with regret for not avoiding the confrontation.
