Perhaps in her past life, Yolanda had sympathized with those less fortunate and would donate some money to charity. But her privileged environment had prevented her from really understanding their struggles.
Her experiences from the past month had taught her something valuable. True leaders would never step on others to feel better about themselves, nor did they prey on the weak.
If Skylar dared to abuse her power, she should have anticipated that someone with even greater influence might one day do the same to her. She had brought this upon herself.
"Skylar is my girlfriend, and I absolutely won't let you touch her!" Paul had completely forgotten his girlfriend's horrible behavior moments ago when she had struck someone. Now he was playing the hero by standing between Skylar and Yolanda.
"Yolanda, stop this nonsense." Right then, Joe said coldly, "Ms. Sheriden is the reason your mother made it back safely."
He was actually defending an outsider and scolding his own daughter without even knowing the full story. "Skylar is my future daughter-in-law, and I won't allow anyone to bully her!"
Alice, who had been trembling with fear just moments ago, suddenly found her courage and confronted Yolanda angrily. "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you know Mr. Seinfeld."
"Hehe..." Vic let out a cold laugh at this. "Ms. Henderson would have the right to do whatever she wants even if she didn't know me!"
Before this, Vic had only felt grateful toward Yolanda. But watching her stand up for a waitress had earned his admiration. He knew that narrow-minded people in power were destined to fall from grace, while those capable of great things possessed rare and valuable qualities others could not match.
