Laura looked at the comments online and read a few of them to understand what was really going on. Her face
also looked gloomy, but she was still able to paste a smile on her face to comfort Marina.
“Don’t be scared. What do these netizens know? They are just a group of filthy flies. After a few days, they'll get
bored and move on to something else,” she assured her.
Marina nodded in understanding. She could remember very well that they had been attacked by netizens before,
but nothing really happened at the end of the day.
With this in mind, Marina could now breathe a sigh of relief, and she said to Laura, “These people can scold us as
much as they want. At the end of the day, there's really nothing they can do to us. Besides, my brother has
already found out about the issue and his anger towards us has expired. So, he won't pursue it any further.”

Laura nodded in concurrence, and followed it with a grumble, “Don’t call that bastard your brother in private. He
doesn’t deserve it at all.”
But Marina simply laughed it off. Then she grabbed Laura’s arm and began to act like a spoiled child.
“Mom, givesmoney. | haven't bought clothes or bags in a long time. I've been grounded for so Long. I'm
very bored. | really want to go out and have fun.”
But she’d hardly finished the statement when she was hit by a crutch and she cried out in pain.
She wanted to scream profanities at whoever hit her, but when she looked behind her, she saw that it was Liza.
The old woman was standing behind them, sporting a long face.
Marina screamed, as if she had just seen a ghost, and threw herself into Laura’s arms, sobbing uncontrollably
Feeling sorry for Marina, Laura raised her head and questioned angrily,
“Mom, why would you hit her like that? What if she gets injured?”
The wrinkled corners of Liza's mouth twitched when she heard this. With hands trembling in fury, she pointed her
crutch at them and shouted,
“Injured? Frankly, I think I hit her too lightly! Look at you pair of losers. You've caused so much trouble. How dare
you seek to go out and have fun?”
They couldn’t help but shrink back and lower their heads in guilt and shas she railed at them.
Liza was so furious that her chest was heaving rapidly.
“The rumor about Loraine’s plagiarism has just been dispelled,” she went on.

“Professor Zizka has publicly apologized to Loraine and even appointed her as a guest designer with a high
salary. The White Cloud
Airport project has also been settled. She is now swimming in fand glory. Now that it’s all over the place
that Bryant family was done her dirty, how do you think we will be allowed to be partners in the project?”
Though Marina had committed such grievous acts, Liza's scolding still made her very angry and she couldn't
help retorting, “Grandma, though we hired those paid accounts, it was just like adding fuel to an already existing
fire. The real culprit is Keely. So, why should we suffer as a result of it?”
Laura nodded in agreement and quickly added her voice, “Marina is right. Even if someone should be blamed, it
should be Keely. By the way, mom, why do you always attack members of your own family?”
Seeing them refuse to take responsibility, Liza beceven angrier and smashed her crutch on the floor.
“How dare you say that?! If you hadn’t been so senseless enough to conspire with Keely to attack Loraine, would
we have ended up in this situation? Can’t you see what's currently going on?”
