Half of Queena''s face was swollen, her expression contorted, making her look grotesque.
She shrieked at Teresa, "What right do you have to hit me? You''re the bitch who broke up my parents! Letting you raise me was a favor to you, Teresa! Don''t be so ungrateful!"
Teresa had never witnessed the true shamelessness of George and Queena. Trembling with rage, she lost all her high-societyposure and lunged at Queena.
Queena fought back, grabbing a fistful of Teresa''s hair and pulling hard, making Teresa scream in pain.
Seeing this, Jeffrey rushed forward to stop them, but as a man, he couldn''t easily get between them. He had to order the household staff to separate them.
But the staff answered to Teresa, so they naturally took her side.
In the scuffle, someone shoved too hard, and Queena was pushed down the stairs. Queena let out a piercing scream as she and her suitcase tumbled down the steps.
"Ah! Blood! I''m bleeding! An ambnce, call an ambnce!" After tumbling down, Queena''s head hit the wall, gashing her forehead. Blood streamed down her face.
Her face covered in blood, Queena turned deathly pale and screamed hysterically. This was far more real than her fake suicide attempts.
But there was only one mistress of the house. The staff all looked to Teresa for cues and dared not speak up for Queena.
In the end, it was Jeffrey who called for an ambnce, fearing she might bleed to death and they''d have a fatality on their hands.
Queena was taken to the hospital by ambnce, but Teresa forbade anyone in the family from having anything to do with her. Left with no choice, Jeffrey called Oscar and asked him to go to the hospital.
After all, Queena and Oscar were engaged. As her fiancé, he couldn''t just ignore her.
After the ambnce left with Queena, the staff began cleaning up the mess.
Queena''s suitcase had burst open when it felt, scattering clothes and jewelry all over the floor. Arge portion of it was from Teresa''s wedding gifts the rest had been bought for her by Teresa
All these years, Teresa had truly loved Queena like her own daughter, never imagining she was raising her husband''s bastard child with another woman.
For a romantic like Teresa, this was a devastating blow.
"Ma''am, everything''s packed. Should I put it back in Queena''s room?" a maid asked, bringing the repacked suitcase to Teresa.
"There is no Queena in this house anymore. Clear out everything from her room, including this. Take it all to a pawn shop Her room will be used

for storage from now on Tere
said coldly.
From that day on, all traces of Queena were erased from the house.
It was unclear whether the shock of Queena''s parentage was too much for Teresa or
if she suddenly developed a conscience and decided to be a mother.
Teresa seemed to have aplete personality change. She started hovering around Yvonne constantly, making her breakfast by hand in the morning, personally warming milk for her at night, and bankingal
seafood from the dining table, down
to thest shrimp.
Teresa bought Yvonne all sorts of dresses, bags, shoes, and so much jewelry that her room was overflowing. It was driving Yvonne crazy.
Bted affection is cheaper than dirt, and bted motherly love was no different.
To get away from Teresa, Yvonne went to stay with Sandra.
