Chapter 4 Settling the Score

Elizabeth scowled at the gross hand on her arm. "Let go."

Lily Martin just laughed, her eyes full of contempt. "Stop acting! I always knew you were a snake. You show up just in time for my brother and Emily's engagement, huh? Even before you were grown, you shamelessly tried to seduce my brother, pulling every trick in the book, but he never even looked your way. Don't you get it? Are you back to embarrass yourself again?"

Lily kept going, "Don't worry. My brother and sister-in-law are very much in love. A person with a bad reputation like you has no chance anymore."

Her voice was loud, drawing the attention of everyone around, some even pulling out their phones to record.

Lily didn't stop, looking Elizabeth up and down with a sneer.

"I heard you and Nola hooked up with an old man together. Was it fun?"

Hearing this, the crowd turned their eyes towards them.

Elizabeth smirked and let out a cold laugh. "Lily, I haven't even started with you, and you dare provoke me?"

Elizabeth was a grudge-holder and hadn't forgotten how, three years ago in Skyhaven City, Lily had spread countless rumors about her and Nola.

Those rumors had left them with nowhere to go!

Now, she was no longer the little girl who was once bullied by others.

Before Lily could react, Elizabeth suddenly stood up, grabbed her arm, twisted it hard, and kicked her away.

The restaurant was instantly filled with Lily's screams.

Lily clutched her arm, crying in pain, and fell to the ground in a heap. "My arm! Is it broken? Elizabeth, you bitch, have you forgotten who my brother is? How dare you treat me like this?"

Elizabeth walked up to her, stepping on her injured arm, grinding it down mercilessly. "I haven't forgotten. I did it on purpose. Can't you tell?"

She leaned in close, laughing softly in Lily's ear. "Stop talking about my business. Let's talk about you hooking up with the housekeeper's son. I heard you're obsessed with the size of his dick?"

Elizabeth continued, "I have quite a few videos and photos of you two. Do you think the reporters at today's engagement party would like the story of a rich girl and the housekeeper's son?"

Lily's face went pale and she forgot the pain in her arm, instinctively grabbing Elizabeth's sleeve, her face showing a pale, helpless plea. "No, you can't."

How did Elizabeth know about this secret?

But Lily had no time to think.

Today was her brother Jeremy Martin's engagement party. Nothing could go wrong. She was also about to get engaged to someone from the Moore family in Silvermist City.

If this got out, not only would the marriage be off, but the Moore family might also destroy the entire Martin family!

Seeing her expression, Elizabeth raised an eyebrow and smiled. "You know how to apologize, right?"

Lily's body instantly tensed, trembling under the watchful eyes of the crowd.

How humiliating it was for her to bow and apologize to the bitch Elizabeth in front of everyone! But Elizabeth had the goods on her.

To protect the Martin Family and the marriage, Lily stiffened for a few seconds and bowed down, lowering her head.

She gritted her teeth, squeezing out a few words. "I'm sorry!"

Elizabeth stood up straight, crossing her arms. "Your voice is too low. I can't hear you."

Lily's eyes were red as she looked up. She was the daughter of the Martin family, always the one receiving apologies.

But seeing Elizabeth's smug gaze, she reluctantly said loudly, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have spread rumors and bullied you today! I apologize to you. Please let me off!"

Elizabeth was in a great mood, just loving to watch her look, reluctant yet having to bow her head. She said, "That's better. Be more polite when you see me in the future. I won't be as lenient as I am today."

Elizabeth dared to threaten her?

Lily felt utterly humiliated, her hands shaking with anger.

Watching Elizabeth leave, Lily's eyes filled with malice.

In Skyhaven City, who would bully whom was still uncertain!

After Elizabeth left, her good friend who came to pick her up had already arrived. Alice Rivera saw her and ran over, throwing herself into her arms.

Elizabeth rubbed her head, seeing Alice's pout in grievance.

"You asked me to prepare a dress and bring it. Are you still thinking about that jerk Jeremy? He's getting engaged here today. Why did you have to come?"

Elizabeth laughed, "Of course not. I'm just here to settle scores."

Alice sighed in relief, pulling her forward, and said, "The engagement party is about to start. Let's go change!"

Three years ago, Elizabeth had fled from Skyhaven City in a hurry. This time, she returned in a dark red, body-hugging dress designed by Alice herself!

Alice personally did her makeup, taking almost an hour to finish. After Elizabeth stood up, Alice looked at her with eyes brimming with tears. "Elizabeth, is Nola okay? Seeing you reminds me of her."

Elizabeth pressed her lips together, falling silent.

Nola was not okay and even worse.

Before coming back, she had visited Nola in the hospital.

As soon as Elizabeth opened the door, Nola started screaming.

She silently closed the door, and Nola suddenly rolled off the bed in fear, hiding under it, muttering, "I didn't cheat, and I didn't kill anyone! Don't hit me, I'm not crazy."

She started hitting herself, and Elizabeth, heartbroken, had reddened eyes as she walked forward and held her tightly.

The once elegant daughter of the Skye family, Nola, who had countless men chasing after her, was now emaciated, with mostly white hair, looking like a skeleton.

Nola finally calmed down, clutching her hand and falling asleep.

Elizabeth lay on the bed, holding her frail body, staying for a long time before leaving.

She would always remember the complicated feelings at that time.

At this very moment, she looked at the warmth and held her hand tightly.

This time when I come back, I would make this mother and daughter, the mistress who harmed their mother, pay a heavy price!

Didn't Emily like to take everything away from me? I just won't let her have her wish. They won't be able to hold this wedding banquet smoothly!

She held the warmth and walked straight towards the red carpet at the wedding banquet entrance, intending to enter directly through the main gate!
