Betrayal At The Altar By Dolores Delia Chapter 17

Chapter 17

Jane watched on with excitement beside them, cheering in her mind. Her eyes widened in amazement.

After all, with that slap, Rachel’s face would definitely swell up like a balloon.

Mrs. Smith’s hand sliced through the air, creating a sharp wind around it. However, just when it was about to strike Rachel’s cheek, it was stopped.

It was because Rachel had taken hold of the attacking hand. Seeing this, Mrs. Smith could not help but stare at her in disbelief.

Mrs. Smith struggled instinctively but found that she could not break free from Rachel’s tight grasp. A hint of panic flashed across her eyes as she exclaimed, “Rachel, what are you trying to do?!”

Rachel gripped Mrs. Smith’s wrist more tightly, and a mocking smile broke across her face. She leaned toward Mrs. Smith and whispered in the latter’s ear, sarcasm and mockery lingering in her voice, “Since childhood, I have been taught to respect the elderly and love the young. But if Mrs. Smith insists on being stubborn, I don’t mind showing you the view from the 15th floor.”

“You!” Mrs. Smith glared at her with fury. Her face had turned red. With gritted teeth, she exclaimed, “Rachel, you will pay for your disrespect toward me! Louis will never forgive you!”

Hearing that, Rachel chuckled and shoved the woman’s hand away. “What does it matter to me if he forgives me or not?”

Mrs. Smith stumbled in her high heels and nearly fell to the ground, though Jane managed to catch her quick enough.

“Let’s go!” Mrs. Smith gritted her teeth. She then snorted coldly and left without looking back.

As they walked out of the hospital ward, Jane could not help but complain, “Mom, Rachel is getting more and more out of control. We have to give her a taste of her own medicine!”

“Shut up!” Mrs. Smith glared at her daughter, her wrist throbbing slightly from pain as she said, “Don’t provoke her unless you want trouble in the future!”

Jane grumbled unwillingly, “All right.”

She lowered her gaze, hiding the malicious intent in her eyes.

She would never forget today’s slap, and someday, she would make Rachel kneel and beg for mercy!
