Chapter 355 Not Letting It Go
Cristina covered her face, staring at Isolde in shock and fury. “You dare?”

“Dare? Try me.” Isolde smirked coldly, revealing a set of gleaming white teeth that sent a chill down Cristina’s spine.
She had always looked down on Isolde. Even after she married into the family, her deference to elders and kindness toward servants made Cristina think she was weak–an easy target.

“If you dare hit me, just you wait!” Cristina turned and an off.
Watching her retreating figure, Hattie mused, “Who do you think she’s going to?”
“Allan.”
“Why?” Hattie asked curiously. “Would he even help her?”
“Allan despises household conflicts,” Isolde replied coolly. “Besides, he’s a scholar, and he has some old ties with her father.”

Isolde chuckled. “Troublesome? What’s he going to do? Scold me for disciplining a concubine? At most, he’ll ask a few questions for formality’s sake–I have my answers ready.”
Sure enough, before long, a servant arrived to summon her.

Isolde paid her respects as decorum dictated, then asked calmly, “Grandfather, what is it that you’ve called me for?”
Allan’s expression was stern. “Cristina claims you made unreasonable demands of her. When she refused, you struck her. Is this true?”
