After the Secret Wedding Rise of My Queen

Chapter 160 Anyone Who Mistreats Isabel Never Meets a Good End (Part Two)

The so-called "decisive measures" involved forcibly restraining Lillian and pressing her into the police car.

The area where Isabel was struck had swelled up to the size of a small egg, bruised in shades of blue and purple. Claiming it did not hurt would be unrealistic-unless the pain had already left her completely numb. Isabel, however, was more focused on Kiara, who was standing nearby with tears in her eyes.
