Following that turn of events, Mario hastily cried out, “Mrs. Berry! How could you do this to me? Have you forgotten how I served you in bed? At that time, you even called me your darling!”
Mary looked at Bianca in a panic. Her breathing grew laborious as though someone was crushing her throat.
The force was so great that she could not quite breathe.
Bianca pinned a sharp and chilly gaze on her. “Get on your knees!”
Mary knelt before her with a thud and reached out to clutch at the latter's hem. “Mom... Trust me! I really don't know that person! Mom... Trust me, Mom!”
“He came all the way here and pointed you out! Don't tell me even those pictures were fake?”
Frustration swamped Bianca at the fact that her mental fortitude was too strong that she did not pass out on the spot.
How I wish I had passed out! Then, I wouldn't have to deal with all this filth!
After lifting her hand, she slapped Mary across the face. “The Yates family's glory that had prevailed for a century is now destroyed at your hands! How I regret bringing you back to the Yates family!”
“Mom... I beg you. Please don't kick me out. I know I was wrong. I've really realized my mistake.” Mary could not help weeping aloud.
“What a shameless and brazen creature! I never expected you to have such loose morals that you even cheated on my son!” Susan was so livid that she charged at Mary and rained blows on her even as she tore into her.
She could finally vent her anger right then for all the times Mary had picked on her in the past. After learning that the woman cheated on Horace, in particular, she almost burst a blood vessel from rage.
Ugh! And I foolishly believed that she'd get my son out of prison! I was too much of a fool!
“Lock her and Penelope into the dark room!” Bianca ordered in a steely voice.
My birthday banquet is now ruined by them both, and the Yates family's reputation is all gone!
“No! Granny, I didn't do anything wrong. Please don't punish me, Granny. My mother was the one who did something wrong, so just punish her alone!”
Penelope swiftly gazed at her pleadingly.
