Georgia was already boiling with rage, and the moment she heard Hertha's voice, she exploded. Whirling around, she screamed at Hertha, "You witch, what right do you have to speak to me!"
She had restrained herself with Alaric, not daring to be too brazen.
After all, Alaric had evidence of her deception. If Alaric really lost his temper, the deputy director of the hospital, a relative of hers, would be in trouble.
She didn't want to bring disgrace upon her family and that relative.
After all, it was to help her that they had falsified a report.
If because of this, the deputy director lost his job and was disciplined, her family would never be able to face him again.
So, she held back with Alaric but felt bold enough to lash out at Hertha.
After all, Hertha was powerless. What could she possibly do to Georgia?
Just after Georgia had finished her tirade, Alaric stepped forward, shielding Hertha from Georgia's view, as if afraid Hertha would suffer the slightest insult.
"Georgia, can't you speak nicely for once?" Alaric glared at Georgia.
Georgia felt even more wronged. She had only yelled at Hertha, and Alaric was already protecting her like a mother hen with her chick.
And his disgust for Georgia couldn't have been more evident.
The stark difference in Alaric's treatment of her and Hertha deepened the chasm in Georgia's heart.
The feelings of injustice and anger churned inside her like a rising tide and an erupting volcano!
"I just said one thing to her, and you're all heartbroken?" Georgia retorted, her voice heavy with emotion.
