Chapter 72

"No! Mom, Dad, help me. Harley... Winslet asked for help in a panie, thinking of escaping.

Yer, soon enough, two bodyguards seized her by the arms.

She was pressed in place as she looked around with an imploring visage.

The guests could not muster

muster the courage to linger their gazes on the scene anymore.

As their eyes met hers, they took a step back silently.

Some people even sneaked out of another emergency exit for fear of being implicated.

Everyone chose the prudent course.

Besides, they all hated the Larson family for their viciousness. None of them would ever step forward to speak up for Winslet.

"What happened at the enrollment celebration banquet was never our intention, so you can't do this!"

Winslet was put under control. She looked at Caleb in fear. "Let me go this time. I won't do it again... I'll forever be in your debt, and I'll turn over a new leaf.... Hanging her head low, she was in a flood of tears

On the sidelines, Winslet stared at the gift list with tears in her eyes.

Alina was standing right in front of her, looking all high and mighty, seemingly the center of everyone's attention and admiration. On the contrary, she herself was nothing more than a pitiful laughing stock. She thought the gift list was hers.

Nothing could describe the devastation within her.

Jealousy swelled in her chest on that note.

"Why's Alina blessed with such luck? Why am I not granted the same?" she mused.

Winslet said through gritted teeth, "I haven't done any substantial impact on you, and you guys have already taken it to this extent... Must you really drive me into a corner? Don't you know this is illegal?"

Madeline uttered placidly. "Once you touched something that shouldn't have been yours, you'll have to pay driving you into a corner..." It was as if she had just heard a joke, "You're weak, so
