Rita's slap knocked Alice back, her feet stumbling as she barely kept her balance. The crowd fell into an uneasy silence, unsure of what had just happened.

The cameras were quick to catch the moment, zooming in on the scene-Rita and Alice, locked in a fierce confrontation.

The Millers, standing there, were completely lost.

What was this? Why would she slap Alice, the main woman, right when she walked in?

Julie snapped out of her shock.

She marched toward Rita, eyes blazing with anger. "What do you think you're doing? Why are you hitting my daughter?"

Rita's sneer was sharp. "Does it need a reason? She insulted Mr. Ramsey. I'll slap her every time I see her."

Julie's face turned red. "You ... You're just a poor woman who's friends with Robin, aren't you?" She spat the words through gritted teeth.

Rita didn't hesitate. Her hand collided with Julie's face with a force that echoed through the courtyard. "Say that again, and I'll cut your throat."

Julie froze, her body stiff with fear. The cold rage in Rita's eyes was enough to make her quiet.

That look could have stopped anyone in their tracks.

Hannah, furious, stepped in. "What kind of woman are you? Didn't your mother tell you that you don't just hit people without warning? Where did you come from?" Rita's slap was so sudden and violent that Hannah crashed to the ground.

Rita towered over her. "I came from the depths of Hell, that's where."

She didn't stop. One slap after another, she struck, leaving the Millers and the reporters stunned, their eyes wide in disbelief.

Who was this woman?

So ruthless, so fast to act without care.

Is she with Robin? They're a couple?
