Chapter 2628 Biting her lip, Yannie picked up her skiing poles and left. It was not the first time she saw how
degrading Denise could be. When Thomas was not at home that one time, Mrs. Howard had invited her to the
house and Denise went over.
During that time, no one dared to object or displease her. Even Mrs. Howard acted humbly in front of her. Yannie,
knowing nothing at the time, followed along and treated Denise with respect, seeing how everyone else did the
same. At the same time, she also remembered Denise was not a kind person nor someone she could cross. Now
that they finally met in the ski resort, she did not want to cause any trouble, especially when Gwen and Luna were
around.
“Leaving now?” Denise sneered as she saw Yannie turn. She crossed her arms at her chest while looking at Yannie
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwith contempt. “If you‘re so scared of me, then why did you have the nerve to seduce my man?”
Just as she finished talking, a woman beside her rushed forward and grabbed Yannie‘s collar.” Where do you think
you are going? Denise is still talking to you. How dare you leave?!”
Yannie struggled her way out when the plump woman grabbed her collar, albeit failing. In the end, she could only
keep on trying and say, “Ms. Hughes, I don‘t want to have any conflict with you!”
“But I want to.” Denise scoffed and walked toward Yannie. The smile on her face became colder. “I heard you came
from a poor family in your hometown. Your mom works as a nanny, right? If you didn‘t seduce Thomas, I bet you‘d
be the same as your mother–working as a maid for the rich.”
Yannie‘s heart throbbed painfully. She gritted her teeth and looked up at Denise. “Ms. Hughes, my mother has
nothing to do with us!”
“How is she not related?” Denise smiled creepily. “Didn‘t you bring your mother here, too? When one enters a
different lifestyle, the family enjoys the benefits, too. Aren‘t your mom here to enjoy her life with you? Why can‘t I
comment on her? Besides...”
Denise sneered and gradually walked toward Yannie. “If your mother could raise a daughter like you, I don‘t think
she‘s any better than you!”
Yannie‘s face turned pale as she bit her lip in sheer frustration. Her eyes were full of anger and dissatisfaction as
her voice turned hoarse. “I told you before! You can say anything you want about me, but not my mother!”
“Oh, so you‘re mad now?” Denise sneered and stood in front of Yannie. Her eyes looked sharp. “You skank!”
With that, she raised her hand and swung it toward Yannie‘s face.

“What do you think you are doing?”
Before her hand could reach Yannie, a hand intercepted her wrist. Denise furrowed her brow and looked up at the

It was a woman with fair skin, a thin body, and a small face. She had her hair down while wearing a fluffy hat with
rabbit ears.
Despite her frail–looking state, she looked endearing. Nonetheless, this sickly woman grabbed Denise‘s wrist so
tightly that Denise could not move at all. Denise furrowed her brow and glared at Gwen angrily. “Who are you?”
“I‘m Yannie‘s friend.” Gwen smirked and flung Denise‘s hand away. Denise failed to keep her balance and nearly fell
to the ground. Luckily, her myrmidon was there to hold her. “You!” She tried hard to keep herself balanced to avoid
falling. Then, she glared at Gwen and Yannie angrily. “How dare you? Do you know who I am? I‘m the eldest young
miss of the Hughes family! My brother is Steven Hughes, the medical miracle! The most promising and handsome
bachelor in Saigen City!”
