?Chapter 634:
Silver Fox observed Emst, but his concentration was solely on attending to Sansa, rendering him oblivious to her presence. Instead of interrupting Emst, Silver Fox remained crouched on the ground, allowing her flowing hair to obscure her face.
She eagerly anticipated witnessing Emst, who once proimed pure love to her, abase himself before Sansa—a woman old enough to be his mother. Unacquainted with Silver Fox, Sansa failed to notice her.
After ridiculing Marissa, Sansa cast a contemptuous nce at Lawrence and Lindsay. Having just selected their trinkets, Lawrence and Lindsay were about to summon Marissa for payment when they overheard someone addressing her with disrespect.
They set aside their trinkets and positioned themselves beside Marissa, ring menacingly at Sansa. Despite their youth, they were always protective of Marissa.
“Are these the little brats you had with some man?” Sansa taunted.
Without uttering a word, Marissa delivered a powerful p to Sansa’s face. Even a casual p from ck Mallow of Doomsday Base was unbearable for an ordinary person. Sansa was caught off guard by the p, her face erupting in pain, her vision blurring as she copsed to the ground, crying out in pain.
“Oh my!” Emst eximed, rushing to her aid and frantically dusting off her clothes. Moments earlier, Sansa had exuded dignity, but now shey in a pitiful state. Her cheek was swollen with a visible handprint, her clothes torn, and her ne broken, stripping her of all elegance.

Even after Emst helped her to her feet, Sansa remained disoriented, unable to focus on Marissa. Emst, preupied with Sansa, did not address Marissa.
Just then, A and Emilee approached, both seething with anger. A demanded harshly, “Tiffany, how dare you strike my mother? Do you have any idea who we are now?”
Before Marissa could respond, Emilee added, “Tiffany, do you think you can act with impunity just because Remy supports you?
A is now favored by the president of the Peridot Consortium. Remy is merely a minor leader within the consortium and must show respect to A. I demand you kneel and apologize to A immediately, or face severe consequences.”
Marissa smirked in amusement. The Skytop Mansion was secluded, and the previous night’s events were deliberately concealed by Paul, leaving outsiders unaware of the Peridot Consortium’s change in leadership. It seemed A and her mother were oblivious as well.
They continued to rely on rissa’s status, unting their supposed superiority, and attempting to intimidate Marissa. How absurd and pitiable.
However, Marissa wasn’t eager to reveal the truth just yet. Watching their performance was quite entertaining. Silver Fox initially intended to observe how much farther Emst would grovel, but Emilee’s arrivalpelled her to act. Memories of childhood abuse surged, reigniting old hatred.
Silver Fox stood abruptly, revealing her face, and loudly chastised, “Emilee, why are you barking like a mangy dog?”
Emilee was stunned, instinctively scrutinizing Silver Fox, finding her familiar yet unrecognizable. Silver Fox had been taken from Blebert by her grandmother at eight years old and had not seen the Hinks family since then. Growing up and changing significantly, she was unrecognizable to Emilee.
Emst, who had been attending to Sansa, froze upon seeing Silver Fox’s face. His expression turned awkward, his heart raced, and he felt deeply ufortable. He hadn’t expected to encounter Silver Fox here; he believed she was still abroad.
However, Silver Fox ignored him. She faced Emilee directly and continued, “Emilee, do you think you can bark and act wildly just because Sansa and her daughter havetched onto the Peridot Consortium’s president and you’re theirpdog? Do you think no one dares to hit apdog?”
Emilee was deeply stung by Silver Fox’s words. She had consistently belittled Sansa and her daughter, even mocking them covertly during their time of homelessness.
However, upon learning that Sansa and her daughter had gained the favor of the Peridot Consortium’s president, Emilee made efforts to win their approval, going so far as to introduce Emst to Sansa as a potentialpanion.
Now, taunted by Silver Fox, she felt a wave of humiliation, herplexion paling in her fury. Clenching her teeth, she demanded, “Who are you?”
