But what kind of hatred could make Selena defy the laws of nature and morality and want to see Daphne die without peace of mind?
Selena had promised her before that she wouldn't lay a hand on Daphne.
Unless...
Leon's sharp gaze fixed on the crying Daphne as he suddenly asked, "Grandma, how did Aunt Nevaeh die?"
Daphne's body suddenly stiffened, something flashed through her eyes in an instant as she cried out, "Nevaeh died of illness, that's what Selena told me..."
Leon caught the strange moment in Daphne's eyes and his heart suddenly chilled.
He stared at the old woman before him as if meeting his grandmother for the first time.
Under his gaze, Daphne moved her eyes away and inexplicably felt like trembling. "Why do you ask about these things from the past? What you should be thinking about now is how to save Penelope..."
"The Riddle family won't lift a finger to save Penelope!" Leon's tone was icy. "She deserves to die!"
Before Daphne could protest and cry, Leon waved his hand and the driver forcibly took Daphne onto the car, leaving the Turner family.
Leon took a deep breath and looked up at the Turner family gate. He instructed his assistant, "Call Hattie's therapist."
Then, he too left in his car.
Inside the Turner family gate, Patrick stood in the shadows, coldly watching the Riddle family leave. He said in a cold voice, "Contact Uncle Fu and the others... I want the Riddle family to hold Daphne down and personally apologize to Selena!"
"Yes!"
...
Daphne was forcibly taken back to the Riddle family by Leon. She had never been treated like this before, and she felt both wronged and resentful. As soon as she entered the door, she found her two sons and cried and scolded them frantically.
Kaitlyn turned pale when she heard Daphne say that Selena wanted to have her killed.
Hunter was furious and turned to angrily say, "Big brother, is this the son you raised? He's helping those disobedient and unfilial children, treating his own grandmother like this?"
Issac frowned and stared at Daphne. "So, mother, you went to the Turner family's gate and insulted and beat up the Turner family's daughter for the sake of Penelope?"
Daphne was taken aback and seemed to have just remembered that Selena had such an identity. Her eyes went blank and she said angrily, "If she had not been disrespectful to me, how could I have been provoked to hit her? I just wanted her to let Penelope go... besides, I didn't even hit her..."
Issac's face darkened as he stared at Daphne, feeling for the first time that his own mother was unreasonable. Hunter angrily said, "Issac, is what you're saying even human language? Filial piety comes first, and Selena is a younger generation who was just scolded by her grandmother. How is that a big deal? You're as ungrateful as your disobedient son. Both of you are like ungrateful wretches who can't be raised properly!"
Issac glanced at Hunter and sneered, "Since my younger brother is so filial, he must be happy to help our mother and bear the retaliation from the Anderson family and the Turner family."
"She was neither raised nor nurtured by you, where does the Riddle family get the nerve to claim they are Selena's relatives?"
Ignoring Daphne's unpleasant expression, Lady Lauren continued, "Daphne, I already told you last time that the Riddle family doesn't need Selena, the Anderson family and the Turner family do."
"You treat Selena like grass, but we treasure her like a gem. You clearly know that Selena is a priceless treasure to the Turner family and the Anderson family, but you still dare to treat her like this. Are you representing the Riddle family by openly provoking the Turner family and the Anderson family?"
Daphne's face suddenly changed.
Even Hunter's face turned pale in an instant. The Riddle family couldn't afford to confront both the Anderson family and the Turner family at the same time. While the Riddle family held wealth, the Anderson family and the Turner family held power. Once the Turner family and the Anderson family teamed up, they could easily become an obstacle for the Riddle family... The Riddle family's losses would be incalculable.
Melissa looked at Daphne with disgust, "How could a girl as kind and strong as Nevaeh have a mother like you?"
Savannah sneered, "Haven't Nevaeh's affairs served as a warning to you? You can't reason with Daphne, the best way is to make her suffer as well!"
Daphne was so angry that a group of younger relatives were causing trouble on her own turf, and was about to slam the table and throw a tantrum when a Riddle family servant rushed in hurriedly.
"Madam, it's not good! Miss Penelope has been beaten by a group of prisoners in the prison! It's said that she is seriously injured and has fallen into a coma..."
Daphne felt blank in her mind.

The readers' comments on the novel: Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh
From the beginning of the story to page 148, the plot is just going in circles about fighting. So ridiculous and waste of time to read! I have no patience for these kind stories. Be more creative if you’re planning to write a book/story!!!...
Beautiful story...
