Chaos Girl Rewrites the Script novel Chapter 470

Arlington Manor.

Slap.

Charles Arlington delivered a vicious slap across Lara's face. She let out a cry of pain as she collapsed to the floor.

"What did I do wrong?!" she screamed. "Why are you hitting me?! Just kill me, then!"

It was the very first time Charles had ever hit her. The physical sting was nothing compared to the pure hatred boiling in her chest.

Charles raised his hand to strike again, but Evelyn Ravenshire violently shoved him aside. She threw herself over Lara, clutching her protectively. "Charles! If you touch my daughter again, I'm divorcing you!"

"You!" Charles pointed a trembling finger at Lara, his face twisted in disgust. "Evelyn, how can you still defend her? She acts like this because you spoiled her rotten!"

Evelyn was furious. She stood up and forcefully shoved Charles back. "I spoiled her? You think you have absolutely no responsibility for how your own daughter turned out? The second something goes wrong, it's all my fault?"

"Enough!" Charles snapped impatiently. "What's the point of arguing about this now? Get this complete embarrassment out of my sight and send her away."

Lara clutched her stinging cheek. "I'm an embarrassment? If I'm such an embarrassment, then just leave me alone! Let me rot!"

Charles's rage exploded. "Leave you alone? Just let you run off with whatever random man you want? Did you sneak out again today? Tell me! Who did you go see?!"

Lara snapped. She blindly grabbed a heavy fruit bowl from the coffee table and hurled it at Charles. "I didn't! I never did any of those things! You have no right to question me! Go interrogate those liars!"

Charles couldn't believe she actually retaliated. Thoroughly disgusted, he spat, "Who am I supposed to interrogate? The line of men claiming to have slept with you could stretch all the way to Solenforth! I am not losing my dignity over this!"

"Charles!" Evelyn shrieked hysterically. "Shut your damn mouth!"

Lara, who had been fiercely fighting back, suddenly felt all the strength drain from her body. She looked down and let out a soft, broken laugh. "Fine. If none of you believe me, then just leave me out of this."

With that, she leaned against the coffee table and forced herself to stand.
