Sarah sneered at Regina''s panicked expression. "So even the great Ms. Arnold knows fear, huh?
"Even for you, a million-dorpensation isn''t something you can just brush off! Once your parents check the surveince footage, they''ll see you acting like a street thug, cursing and swinging your fists.
"A dignified youngdy of the Arnold family? More like amon hoodlum! What a joke!"
She didn''t forget to clutch her swollen, red face, her voice shrill as she mocked Regina.
Regina''s head throbbed, her fists clenching tightly. This was her fiancé she was protecting!
Normally, she wouldn''t have bothered to personally take action like this. It was all because of Sarah.
Regina wanted to lunge at her again, but Rachel, who was still on the floor, suddenly wrapped herself around Regina''s legs, wailing shamelessly.
"Aren''t you the eldest daughter of the Arnold family? Why are you chasing after my daughter to beat her? I''ll kneel before you if that''s what you want, okay?"
As she spoke, she actually started to rise to her knees.
The crowd, many of whom had no idea what had happened, saw a middle-aged woman kneeling before a young woman and immediately began whispering and pointing fingers at Regina.
"What on earth happened that an elder has to kneel to her?"
"Is there no justice left in this world? The victim is kneeling to the attacker? The Arnold family must be so powerful that they can do whatever they want in Javerton City!"
Hearing the murmurs around her, Regina froze in ce.
She couldn''t tear these two women apart in public. But she had to pay for all those shattered porcin.
If her parents found out she got into a public brawl, if the Larson family found out she caused a scandal at the porcin exhibition...
Her heart pounded as she instinctively turned to Cole. What would he think?
But Cole stood there motionless,pletely indifferent, as if neither Regina nor Sarah had anything to do with him.
The standoff continued.
Then, Serena stepped out from the crowd. "Ms, Arnold, don''t worry. The porcin on the floor isn''t authentic. They''re replicas prepared by Samuel, so thepensation won''t reach millions. However, causing trouble at a porcin exhibition is still a vition of the event''s régtions."
She had walked away from Hugh''s side to handle the situation herself. After all, her mother''s porcin pieces were disyed right beside them-if the chaos escted, they could be coteral damage.
Regina''s expression darkened. She thought Serena was taking Sarah''s side. "What? You and your sister are suddenly working together now?"
Rachel, hearing this, misunderstood immediately. She thought that since she had repaid the 60 million dors, Serena must have softened toward them and was now helping them get rid of Regina.
She quickly chimed in, "Of course Serena would help us! She''s Sarah''s elder sister! Who else would she side with? Serena, just look at your poor sister. She''s been beaten so badly-"
But before she could finish, Serena raised a hand, signaling her to shut up.
Her gaze swept over them, cold and sharp. "I''m not siding with anyone. I just reviewed the surveince footage. It clearly shows that before Ms. Arnold even touched Ms. Lloyd, she deliberately threw herself into the disy case."
"So, a liar is ying the victim. How long do you n on keeping up this act?" Before anyone could react, Serena yed the surveince footage on therge screen nearby. The entire incident yed out in clear detail for everyone.
Regina, seeing the truth exposed, let out a sigh of relief. But then, her eyes turned murderous as she red at Rachel.
"You mother and daughter pair are both rotten to the core. I swear, I''m going to—" She raised her hand, about to tear into them again.
