“Mom! You…” Ava panicked.
She held her throbbing cheek. Panic, resentment, rage, guilt, and all sorts of complicated emotions rushed up to
her.
“Don’t call me mom!” Hannah panted harshly. “Do you still see me as your mother? I… How did I raise a shameless
thing like you!?”
“Mom, don’t listen to their nonsense. Uncle Chuck and I are just—”
“Don’t the photos say enough!?” Hannah was hysterical. “That man groped your waist! And y-you let him? Are you
trying to make me mad!?”
Ava froze, unable to say anything.
Actually, Hannah had long noticed the scandal between her daughter and lover.
She rarely took Ava to meet Chuck, but Chuck’s lecherous eyes would stay on Ava each time they met. She was

She was jealous of her own daughter, jealous that she had the youth which she had lost, jealous of her face that
could enchant men.
She was old now and could no longer win over Chuck’s heart, no matter how hard she tried. Other than bringing
him more benefits, she had no other ways.
Hannah had hinted to Ava plenty of times for her to stay away from Chuck, but she did not expect the two of them
to do this behind her and for Cordelia and Zephyr to catch them red-handed!
Hannah suddenly understood it. Zephyr had not exposed Chuck’s identity in front of Franklin just now because he
already had everything within his control.
Other than being intimidating, Janine and Zephyr were best at manipulating others’ weaknesses and then playing
with them like cat and mouse—until the mouse died!
Hannah’s legs felt limp, and she nearly fell to the floor.
Ava merely looked at her coldly and did not help her.
Hannah looked up as if seeing her end from her daughter’s eyes that were gleaming viciously.
“Y-You wh*re! Did I give birth to you for you to go against me? I-I’ve done everything for you, and you went behind
my back and did something so shameless!”

A moment of silence later, Ava scoffed.
“Mom, don’t make it sound so awful. What I do is shameless, and you have the moral high ground?”
“You…”
“The production can’t be stopped halfway! The funds can’t be pulled out!” Ava cried, “Since you can’t decide on
this, I naturally went to Uncle Chuck for help! What else should I do? How else am I becoming a star and an award-
winning actress!?”

“Mom, be the bigger person!” Ava looked at her impatiently. “You’re old now, so Uncle Chuck doesn’t like you! If it
weren’t for me, would he even look at you?
“It’s not like my flesh is being cut off when I let him grope me. I can make him help us and—”
“Shut up!”
Hannah was hysterical and grabbed Ava’s hair to slap her a few more times.
Ava cried and yowled so much that her voice cracked. Hannah’s long fingernails went for her face too and
scratched lines of blood.
Ava fought back. With eyes reddened in a fury, she punched Hannah’s stomach.
“Ah!”
Hannah could barely find her balance from the pain and fell into the pool.
Ava was stunned. She watched Hannah struggle in the water before she sank. She panicked, and an idea popped up
in her blank mind—run!
“Mom, d-don’t blame me for this!” Ava broke out in a cold sweat and ran off limping in her high heels.
Hannah slowly lost motion, and there was only a ripple of bubbles left on the water’s surface.
