The True Heiress's Return

Chapter 228

Fiona's face turned pale as she clenched her fists tightly and screamed, "Lonely Bird, don't falsely accuse me!" Before Shakira could speak, George suddenly slapped Fiona hard across the face

Holding the quickly reddening handprint, Fiona was stunned. "Daddy?" Her eyes were red as she said, "You believe her instead of me?!" She immediately turned to her mother, crying, "Mom, say something, how could Daddy believe the lies of an outsider..." "Fiona!" Sophie covered her mouth, tears sliding down her face, her eyes filled with sadness and pain. "My foolish daughter.

your

father and I love you so much and know you so well. We notice your little quirks better than anyone else when your lies get exposed."

Fiona froze. She looked down at her hand, which clenched instinctively-a habit she'd had since childhood. Whenever she was upset and feeling guilty, she'd unconsciously wrap her thumb inside her fist... She stared wide-eyed in realization.

"Why did you do that? It's your grandmother!" George shouted, his voice trembling with sorrow. "She loved you so much. she would have given her life to protect you, yet you've brought her such harm!"

Fiona lost control and screamed hysterically, "It wasn't me! I don't know, I didn't even know Grandma was coming for a check-up-

"You're used to living self-centered, and Mrs. Banks has always indulged you," Shakira said.

"Shut up! How can you blame me? If it weren't for you,

Grandma wouldn't be in trouble-ahr

"How could I have such a vicious daughter like you!" George slapped Fiona hard with all his might, knocking her to the ground, with blood trickling from her lips.

He pointed at Fiona, who was shivering on the ground, full of pain and fear, yet still unrepentant. He looked at her as if she was a cold-blooded stranger,

He said, "Just because you hate someone, you went so far as to harm innocent lives, stopping at nothing to achieve your goals, only to end up hurting your own family. Your grandmother spoiled you to this extent...." George laughed at himself, mocking his foolishness, "What a fool, digging my own grave! It's all karma!" Sophie covered her face and cried uncontrollably.
