Honey, You're a Billionaire by Chandler Solar

Chapter 542 Foricng Her To Submit

A thud echoed as Anastasia fell to her knees.

"Ha ha ha!" Harriette was utterly pleased. She couldn't believe Anastasia had actually knelt before her.

She hadn't forgotten the humiliation of that day when the video was released in Regalia when her shame was displayed for all to see-mocked, ridiculed, and scorned.

At the time, she thought Rose was behind it. But later, she discovered it wasn't Rose. It was Anastasia. As such, she thought that merely asking Anastasia to kneel was far from enough. Harriette's gaze darkened. "Go on."

Anastasia froze for a moment. "Go on? Is kneeling not enough? What more does she want?" she thought.

Realizing what Harriette was implying, she slowly lifted her head and met the woman's cold gaze. Then, realization struck her kneeling wasn't sufficient. She wanted Anatasia to bow down and grovel.

"Why? Are you unwilling? It seems like your plea isn't sincere enough then." Harriette scoffed, observing the anger and struggle on Anastasia's face. She knew that, in the end, Anastasia would do as she wished.

Sure enough, after a moment of bitter hesitation, Anastasia lowered her head further until her forehead struck the floor with a heavy thud.

Harriette watched, her satisfaction growing with each passing second.

"Ha ha ha!" Her raspy laughter echoed in the room eerily.

She stepped forward, her toes nearly touching Anastasia's bowed head. "Anastasia, oh Anastasia, I bet you never imagined I'd bring you to your knees, did you?"

At that moment, she was no longer Harriette, but rather Kelly. Even back in Regalia, when she had deceived Oliver to become a member of the Young family, she had never imagined crushing Anastasia beneath her feet. But now, she had succeeded. With her triumph reverberating through her every step, Harriette turned around and made her exit.

Left alone, Anastasia remained sprawled on the ground, Harriette's words echoing relentlessly in her mind.

"I bet you never imagined I'd bring you to your knees, did you?"

Harriette had always been the one to keep her downtrodden, even during their childhood. The Harriette she knew would never utter such words.
