Sharon turned her head and saw the man with a cold expression and a tall, handsome appearance.
“Edwin, you must help me!” Tina clung to Edwin, her eyes brimming with tears.
When Tina turned to look at Sharon, her eyes were filled with a clear challenge and self–satisfaction.
She had been ready to have a fight with Sharon, but with Edwin’s arrival, there was no need for that.
“So arrogant of Sharon, I’m your sister, and she actually dared to lay a hand on me! She’s trying to get the upper hand over us!” she cried.
Edwin turned his head to look at Sharon.
Sharon’s face was inscrutable as if veiled by a light mist.
“Are you sure you want to take Tina’s side?” she asked.
“Edwin will of course only help me. Would he side with you, an outsider? Tina, worried that Sharon might reveal the reason for her slap, hastily interjected.
Sharon glanced at her with a cold laugh and walked up to Edwin. Then let’s fight.
She stood expressionless in front of him and closed her eyes.
Sharon was actually allowing Edwin to hit her.
Tina’s mind was a whirlwind of accusations and slanders against Sharon, and she hadn’t anticipated this move at all, leaving her momentarily stunned and speechless
Edwin gently pushed Tina aside,
his gaze still fixed on Sharon “I don’t hit women. However, what exactly happened?
“Who knows what happened? Sharon just came out of nowhere and hit mel Tina was eager to avoid explaining, quickly responding. “Edwin, even if you don’t hit women, you can’t just let her go. If you do, there’s no telling what she might do in the future.”
“Let’s check the surveillance. Edwin suggested.
Tina was taken aback.
Sharon wasn’t saying anything, and Edwin was still insisting on checking the surveillance?
Tina was frightened and stunned into silence. “Edwin, what do you meant Don’t you believe me? I’m your own sister.”
Ignoring Tina’s plea, Edwin found the staff.
Soon enough, the staff had the surveillance footage displayed before them.
The footage showed that it was indeed Sharon who approached Tina.
Without much exchange of words, Sharon struck Tina.
“Edwin, you see. It was Sharon who bullied met Tina, who had been terrified, was relieved to find that the surveillance didn’t have sound.
The situation immediately turned in her favor.
Tiru was overjoyed.
“Are you talking about Irene?” Edwin suddenly asked.
Thu, caught up in her glee, was taken aback by the question, her mind going blank.
She looked at Edwin with trepidation as his eyes were used on the surveillance footage of the two, reading their lips.
Their faces were clearly captured, and with Tina’s expression being particularly rude and overbearing. Edwin had already guessed quite a bit from their lip movements. Tina, did you cause trouble for Irene?
Well…. L… Tina dared not respond
Edwin turned to face her, his expression quickly becoming dent

Tina feared Edwin the most, and seeing his current demeanor, she was so frightened that she could only stammer in defense. “It’s all because Sharon made me uncomfortable. She bullied me, and I just
Edwin had only been speculating, but Tina’s words were an admission of guilt.
“If she bullied you, you could have dealt with her directly. But why did you have to harm a child? Especially when you are Irene’s own aunt!” he asked.
Tina didn’t dare to utter a single word, so embarrassed that she couldn’t even raise her head.
“Is that all clear now? Can I leave?” Sharon, ignoring the attitudes of the two, spoke indifferently, turned, and walked away.
Just as she opened the car door, Edwin caught up to her.
“Why didn’t you say anything just now!” he asked.
Sharon looked at him with an untroubled gaze. Have you ever believed what I said?”
Edwin was embarrassed and taken aback, unable to respond for a moment
“Since
you don’t believe me, why should I bother to say anything more!” Sharon continued, her tone calm.
Having said that, Sharon lowered her head and moved towards the car.
Edwin urgently grabbed her arm. “What exactly happened to Irene? How is she now?”
Sharon saw Edwin’s concerned expression for Irene and frowned, finding it both puzzling and amusing.
Why was Edwin putting on an act when Tilda wasn’t here?
“Mr. Stanley, she’s doing well, no need for your concern, Sharon said, pulling her hand away. She got into the car, closed the door in Edwin’s face with a snap, and drove off
Edwin almost got run over by the wheels and had to step back.
He watched the departing vehicle, his brows furrowed in thought.
The harmonious scenes he had shared with her and Irene kept coming to mind, and he couldn’t figure out what had caused her to become so cold
Tina had been severely reprimanded by Edwin and felt utterly humiliated,
She walked home listlessly, her mind filled with thoughts of how Sharon dared to hit her and use Edwin to get back at her. She vowed that she wouldn’t let that woman have an easy time.
Even if Edwin would help Sharon, Jasmine definitely would not.
Thinking of this, Tina quickened her pace.
Inside the house, Jasmine was sitting in
the living room, sipping coffee, dressed in elegant and high–end attire, exuding an air of nobility.
Upon seeing her, Tina immediately ran over, crying, and presented her swollen face to Jasmine: “Mom, look. That bitch hit mel She’s still got her eyes on Edwin. I only criticized her a bit, and she did this to me! You must stand up for me.
“Today, Edwin even scolded me because of her. If this continues, she might just snatch Edwin away from us again!”
Tina was well aware that Jasmine could never accept the idea of Sharon still having feelings for Edwin.
Tina deliberately concealed the truth about why Sharon had hit her, directing the issue toward Edwin instead. She was certain that Jasmine would become angry and take her side
As expected, Jasmine’s face slowed anger, and she slammed her cup down on the table with a bang. “Absurd!”
Tina, secretly delighted, was about to add more fuel to the fire when jasmine suddenly raised her hand and slapped Tina’s face.
Cracki
The slap was crisp and loud, causing Tina to see stars.
She looked at her mother in disbelief. “Mom, have you lost your mind in anger! Why would you hit me!*

Tim out past confused by anger. You’ve nearly driven me toodeath?” jasmine stood up, her expression stern as she looked at her daughter.
She then took out her phone and quickly tapped on it a few times.
Immediately, a voice came out from the phone.
Tina’s face was filled with disbelief as she heard the voice “Well
Jasmine continued, “This is a recording Sharon sent me! She made it clear that if I don’t control my own daughter, this recording will appear in all the major media outlets! An aunt instigating harm against her own niece. If such a scandal gets out, the Stanley family’s reputation will be ruined!
you trying to kill me?”
Jasmine had always doted on her daughter and had never been this fierce with her before.
Tina, holding her face, was filled with grievance and embarrassment, crying uncontrollably.
Jaunine, looking at her, fel a mix of anger and disappointment. “You know that wornan Sharon is shrewd, but why provoke her? You’ve brought such trouble upon yoursell. How do you plan to resolve this?
“It’s my own fault for indulging you too much, leading you to make such a mistake! From now on, you’re to stay at home and not go anywhere!” Tina ran back to her room in tears, thinking about the grievances she had suffered that day, and in her anger, swept a table full of
f cosmetics onto
Damn you, Sharon! I merely retaliated for what Sharon did wrong, yet not only did Sharon slap me, but she also got Edwin and my mother to scold me. It’s just too hateful! Thus thought to hersell.
The more Ima thought about it, the more upset and unwilling she became
As a daughter of the prestigious Stanley family, how could she be bullied by a powerless, insignificant woman?
“Sharon, you just wait!” After cry
