The True Heiress: Legend Mode novel Chapter 224

When had Gemma ever been manhandled like this?!

She snapped instantly, her face darkening as a frigid hostility radiated from her.

She pushed with every ounce of her strength but couldn't even stand up. Looking up, she saw Juno's completely unbothered, effortless expression.

Her face twisted in pain. "Let me go!!"

Juno ignored the screeching, her fingers digging deeper into the girl's shoulder blade. "Is this how people from prominent families behave? Barging up the stairs without so much as a hello?"

"Are you actually retarded? Do you even know where you are? This is the Yates estate! Do you have any idea who I am?!"

Juno paid her no mind. The second her grip loosened, Gemma shot up, seizing the split-second opportunity to swing a vicious slap at her face.

She was fast, but Juno was faster.

Catching her wrist mid-air, Juno violently twisted it upward.

Gemma immediately let out a blood-curdling shriek.

Keeping a firm hold on her wrist, Juno ruthlessly dragged her toward the front door.

Her features distorted with agony as she was hauled unceremoniously to the entrance.

Miriam, her nanny, had just managed to catch up. Reaching the door, she witnessed the brutal scene and nearly fainted on the spot, staring at the two of them in utter shock.

While Miriam was paralyzed with disbelief, Juno casually delivered another kick to the girl on the floor.

Lorcan's precious little sister had never been subjected to anything like this in her entire life.

She started screaming threats. Her perfectly styled blonde hair was now a tangled mess, and her expensive clothes were rumpled and torn from the struggle. "Juno Mercer! Let me go right now! I swear, I'll make you pay for this!!"

She glared at her assailant with venomous hatred.

He's been dreaming of getting his hands on it, and you're here spouting nonsense about getting them dirty?!

Frog in a well! Do you honestly think a family like the Corringtons is the peak of high society?!

I'm warning you—if you know what's good for you, grab him and get the hell out of here! Otherwise, I'll destroy you!!"

Juno grabbed a handful of her blonde hair, forcing her head up.

Miriam watched in absolute panic, her trembling hands hovering helplessly as she desperately tried to think of a way to de-escalate the situation. "I sincerely apologize for the offense, Ms. Mercer! Ms. Gemma isn't normally like this. If you got to know her, you'd realize she's actually quite lovely!"

Hearing this, Juno simply tightened her grip and brutally wrenched the girl's wrist further backward.

Gemma let out another agonizing scream.

Juno ran her tongue along her teeth, a dark, vicious glint in her eyes. "I don't care what she's like in private. But if she comes into my space acting like a bitch, she's going to get treated like one."
