However, Janet had barely touched Luna when she started screaming in pain, "Argh!!! My arm!!! My arm!!!"
Hearing her daughter's cries, Jade promptly leapt toward Janet and pushed her down to the floor while asking Luna worriedly, "Are you alright, Luna?"
"It hurts so much, Mom!" Luna sobbed.
Her cries left Jade incensed, and she wheeled on Janet as she bellowed, "What do you think you're doing? Aren't you a healer?! How could you hurt my daughter?"
Janet made a face. "I'm setting her bone. It's normal if it hurts..."
"Mom, I don't want her help," Luna bawled right then. "It hurts so much."
Jade glared at Janet as she yelled, "Why are you just standing there?! Apologize to my daughter right now!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"A-Apologize...?" Janet was on the verge of tears.
Jade, however, kept snapping at her, "You bitch! Turns out you were just a quack daughter, and now
you're trying to play victim after hurting my daughter?
She started to reach for Janet, but Frank had suddenly leapt toward her and grabbed her by the wrist.
As he was still busy stopping Brenda's bleeding, he did not stop Janet when she offered to help Luna.
But to think that Jade and Luna were such bullies!
"Argh! What are you doing?! Let go!" Jade snapped at him.
"That's enough from you," Frank growled icily. "You're the one who drove sloppily and crashed into that
lady's motorbike—not only did you refuse to apologize, you're still throwing insults at everyone. And
when someone offers to help your daughter, you're going to assault her instead?!"
The onlookers were already sick of Jade and Luna as well, especially when they insulted Rivertonians
to no end.
Naturally, they did not come forward since Jade and Luna looked like important people, but they were
immediately venting their righteous indignation now that Frank stood up against them.
Moreover, most of them lived nearby and had visited Flora Hall themselves, and they therefore knew
Janet and her family's character well.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey would not just stand by and watch while Janet was bullied!
"That's right! Ms. Zimmer was helping, and you tried to attack her!"
"She is the granddaughter of Dan Zimmer, the head of Flora Hall! Her skill in medicine is above question—you should be the one apologizing!"
Jade was actually surprised that everyone was snapping at her, and her face contorted in rage. "You peasants have no right to tell me what's what! I'll do whatever I want!"
Then, wheeling on Frank, she snapped again, "Let go of me!"
Frank growled coolly, "You're nothing. Get out of Riverton if you hate this place so much—no one here owes you anything."
With that, he shoved her, sending her tumbling painfully against her car!
At the same time, the onlookers were all chanting, "Leave Riverton! Leave Riverton!"
Someone even threw a bad egg at Jade's face right then!
As the stench swirled around her instantly, Jade almost gagged. "You... You bastards..."
