Fiona and Sheila glanced at the contents of the photocopy, and their faces went colorless. They dared not utter a word.
They failed to set her up but instead she had gotten the goods on them.
They were in the wrong this time!
Lyra saw them both deflated and shook her head sarcastically.
She thought they would have been tougher and resisted a little longer!
"Go, hurry up with the smashing so we can proceed to the next step." As she finished talking, a meaningful smile played over her lips.
It was almost seconds before the bodyguards quickly took action.
Four of the bodyguards gathered all the servants in the garden and contained them there, while the other six were responsible for carrying out the apocalyptic destruction on the manor.
Soon the whole manor was filled with sounds of cracking and smashing.
The contained servants listened to the noise and cowered together, not daring to look.
Fiona also listened with her heart beating crazily fast.
Sheila shrank into her arms in fear, then suddenly remembered something and she jumped, "Oh no! I just got the set of LC Limited-Edition Cosmetics from Matania last month! You can't destroy it! Stop!"
She panicked and broke away from Fiona's embrace and ran upstairs to stop them.
There were screams mixed with the sound of broken porcelain.
From a distance, it sounded like an eerie symphony.
Fiona's fingernails were cutting into her palm, and her sinister stare at Lyra looked like she wanted to chop her into pieces.
It was the money she had lost, which made her heart wrench severely.
But decades of wealthy life had become part of her blood. She would not bow down to this little bitch no matter what!
She forced down the pain of a probable heart attack and glowered at Lyra with indignation, "You're downright vicious! Bitch! You'll get your karma. I'll hunt you down!"
Lyra laughed, "If I'm considered vicious just by this, then what are the things you did to me in the previous three years? So vicious that it's outrageous, right?"
Fiona sneered, "You're just a bumpkin who came out of nowhere. You don't deserve my son. What I did was just to teach you rules of a prestigious family. It was you who couldn't stand the hardships and asked to divorce. What does it have to do with me? Is that my fault?"
Her sophistry made Lyra laugh.
Forget it. These people were so full of themselves, and would never think they have done anything wrong.
Lyra found it a waste of breath to argue with them.
Fiona wanted to continue when she saw two bodyguards dragging Sheila out of the manor, who kept cursing on the way.
The bodyguards' strength was so great while Sheila kept struggling, so her wrists and arms were bruised.
Fiona was distraught and tried to rescue her baby girl back from the bodyguard, but was held down by another guard and couldn't move, so she could only look at Lyra in horror.
"What do you want to do to Sheila! I was the one who sent the men. It had nothing to do with Sheila. Kill me if you have the guts!"
"I prefer torturing people than killing them."
Lyra curled her lips into a smile, "Last time, I said that if you messed with me again, I'll double my vengeance on you, but ..."
She paused while the bodyguard brought her a chair, and she sat down right in the middle of the gate without going inside.
Because she had said before, even if Fiona begged her on her knees, she would not step into the Freeman Manor again.
"Considering that you were once my mother-in-law, an elder to me, I won't touch you, so she'll pay your debt."
She said, her stern gaze darting on Sheila.
Sheila had experienced Lyra's punishment at the party before, and she immediately shivered. "Mom! Help me! She's gonna to kill me!"
Although Fiona was held by the bodyguards, she was able to speak, and she kept accusing Lyra of her "bad deeds", cursing and threatening her non-stop.
Mixed with Sheila's wailing, it was deafening as hell.
Lyra frowned unpleasantly, "So noisy. Gag her."
