Viola and Serena returned to Valor Estate in complete despair.

As soon as they entered the door, Viola raised her hand. She used every ounce of strength she had and slapped Serena hard across the face.

Ignoring any sense of decorum, Viola shouted angrily, "How could the Warren family produce such a disgraceful woman like you? You completely ruined the family's reputation tonight! Come, let's go see Mother. She'll deal with you!"

Serena had already been humiliated at Hell Monarch Estate. She hadn't gotten what she wanted, and even had her body touched by the Marquis of Ironridge. Now, she had become the laughingstock of the town. Panic and fear were already gnawing at her.

Now, as soon as she stepped through the door, Viola had slapped her.

For a moment, Serena was stunned, but then she completely snapped.

Was everyone just here to bully her now?

In a fit of rage, Serena slapped Viola right back and snarled, "Who are you calling disgraceful? You think you're any better? Weren't you disgraceful when you married my brother? Weren't you disgraceful when you went to Lady Helen's birthday banquet tonight? You went to laugh at others, but in the end, they laughed at you!"

Viola never expected that after everything Serena had done, the girl would have the audacity to strike back.
