Rocky was not a person who liked to lose his temper easily. Going through many years of silent suffering in his family, Rocky had trained himself to always maintain a good temper. However, when confronted with a woman like Sylvia, he could not help but feel a sense of fury, rising within him.
If she continues to insult me in such a manner, there is no need for me to stand on ceremony anymore!
Seeing as such, he lifted his leg and aimed a kick at Sylvia.
Caught off guard, Sylvia immediately collapsed onto the floor.
âOuch, that hurts! You b*stard! Just you wait!â
Sylphiette quickly rushed forward to help Sylvia up. âAre you alright, Mom? Nicole, if you continue with this, Iâll call the police!â
âCall the police? Do you think that Iâll allow you the chance to do so? Furthermore, do you think that the policemen in K Nation are so free that theyâll agree to intervene in petty family disputes?â
A worried look flashed across Sylphietteâs eyes.
She did not expect Nicole to have done something like this.
Now that she was in a foreign country, she had no means to protect herself!
Damn it!
âIâll kill you!â
Sylvia suddenly scrambled up from the ground, flailing her arms around as she dashed toward Rocky, looking like a madwoman.
He dares to cause trouble here? Iâll tear his skin apart!
Rocky appeared to have underestimated how persistent Sylvia was.
It looks like Iâll have to teach her a lesson!
Still wondering about where he should kick Sylvia, Rocky was surprised when she suddenly fell face-first onto the ground, howling miserably.
Whatâs happening?
I have yet to move! Why has she fallen down?
Then, he noticed a bloody dagger on Sylviaâs thigh.
Rockyâs heart skipped a beat as he glanced at Nicole. I didnât expect her to have used a knife at such a critical juncture.
She has reacted so quickly and ruthlessly.
This is beyond my imagination!
When Nicole saw Sylvia howling so pathetically, with blood flowing out of her thigh, she could not help but exclaim internally. I really shouldnât judge a book by its cover!
I was worried that Rocky would not have been able to intimidate them. Yet, at a critical juncture, he has even dared to stab her!
Indeed, Iâm surprised.
It looks like Iâll have to view him in a completely different light from now on.
âMom, Mom, are you okay? Does it hurt?â
Nicoleâs yells jolted both of them back to their senses. Rocky immediately put on a menacing look. Seeing that Nicole was already being harsh, he decided that he should have to keep up with the act.
âAnswer all of our questions! Otherwise, just wait and youâll get to see your bodies dismembered!â
Upon hearing his words, Nicole had to resist the urge to clap for him.
This is how you should treat a wicked woman like Sylvia.
âDid you hear me clearly?â
Sylviaâs face was deathly pale. If I donât speak tonight, Iâd probably be unable to survive.
Hence, she raised her head and relented to Nicole in a defeated tone, âAsk away.â
I will have to head to the hospital immediately after this. I might become a cripple otherwise!
âGood. Back at Rose Garden, Sylphiette had told me that my Momâs death had something to do with Dad. What happened?â
Hearing her question, Sylvia initially tried to defend Zane.
She had told Nicole that as Zane was in the same car as Nicoleâs mother, Rosalie, her death naturally was related to Zane.
Unfortunately, Nicole threw a sharp gaze at Sylvia, in response to her words. Looking at Sylviaâs darting eyes, Nicole could surmise that Sylvia was still being untruthful to her.
It looks like Sylvia still has feelings for Zane, huh?
Nicole snorted coldly. âIâd thought that my mother was the pitiful one. Nevertheless, I didnât expect you to be the same as her!â
âWhat do you mean?â asked Sylvia, puzzled.
âOn the day that youâd left to go overseas, I returned home to look for Dad. Do you know what I saw?â
âWhat?â
âDad brought a young and pretty lady home. Sheâs staying in your bedroom right now. Well, heâs probably making plans on abandoning you, as of current.â
Sylvia was stunned. âNonsense! Youâve wanted your Dad to divorce me, so youâve fabricated such a story, right? I wonât fall for your tricks.â
âYou wonât believe me? That woman is at most thirty years old. She has short hair with an extremely sweet voice. Sheâs almost as tall as Sylphiette. Call the maids at home and ask if theyâve seen someone like her there.â
Sylvia was stunned. She did not have the courage to make such a call to prove that it was merely a lie.
