Chapter 244
Chapter 24.4.
Christina's face tightened. "What nonsense are you spouting?"
"Alright, enough!" Diana frowned, feeling utterly exasperated. This gathering had been completely ruined by Christina and Brittany. "Since Paisley isn't going to deal with this, I won't either." "Yeah, same here," Lauren agreed with Diana for once,
With the two central figures of the gathering refusing to get involved, the other ladies naturally chose not to either.
The two officers present were also at their wit's end, and it became clear to them that Brittany wasn't as innocent as her mother claimed. Her personality itself seemed problematic.
"So, what's your decision?" one of the officers asked Donna and Daisy.
As the victims, their wishes took precedence. "Of course we're pressing charges. Officer, we're going all the way with this Donna said firmly.
Daisy nodded emphatically, despite her slurred speech. "And I want a medical examination!"
"Alright, in that case, both parties need to come to the station with us. The officers wasted no time and told both sides to head to the police station. Brittany
panicked completely. She grabbed Christina's hand. "Mom, I'm not going! I'm not going!" She knew that if the matter couldn't be resolved, the Levines would definitely ruin her. Christina panicked too, holding onto Brittany
and shaking her head at the officers. "We're not going. We didn't commit any crime! We're not going!"
"You beat someone up like that, and you think you can just
walk away?" One of the officers lost patience and grabbed Brittany's wrist. "Come with us quietly, or we'll have to use force."
Donna and Daisy apologized to Diana, Lauren, and the others, then nodded at Paisley before walking out first. With the victims gone, the officers each took one of Brittany's arms and started dragging her out as she struggled. "No! Let me go! Mom! Mom! Help me!"
Brittany's hysterical screams broke Christina's heart. "Brittany, don't be scared. I will save you! I'll save you!" Watching Brittany get taken away by the officers, Christina's eyes turned red with rage. She glared at Paisley. "You ingrate, just you wait!"
After leaving that threat, Christina hurriedly ran after them.
Finally, peace returned. In the grand hall, sighs filled the air from the ladies present. Some of the young women even forgot about the setting and hugged their mothers on the spot.
Compared to Paisley's mother, their own moms were amazing. With such good mothers, they couldn't help but feel guilty about how rebellious they'd been.
Lauren felt a pang of emotion
too. Looking at Paisley again, all she could see was a girl so pitiful it made her heart ache. Why hadn't she cherished this girl properly before?
"Paisy, Lauren softened her tone, putting on a pleasing smile.
But Paisley's gaze completely bypassed her and landed on Diana, who was holding her hand with a look full of affection.
"Ms. Sutton, you've had such a hard time," Diana said with motherly kindness. She thought to herself that if Nathaniel ever married this girl, she'd treat her like her own daughter. "Diana, just call me by my name," Paisley said politely with a smile. After all, she hadn't even agreed to take
Nathaniel as a student yet, so technically, there was still a generational gap between her and Diana.
"Alright, I'll call you Paisy," Diana said cheerfully, completely oblivious to her daughter-in-
law, Julia, whose expression shifted subtly.
Julia had just witnessed quite the drama. She hadn't expected Paisley's past and family background to be so dramatic. What shocked her even
more was that at just 17 or 18, Paisley had already managed to come up with tens of millions to help her family,noveldrama
That meant the success she had today wasn't built on Dominick's money-
it was her own ability. If a woman like this were to marry Nathaniel, with her capability, would there even be room left for her and Morris in the Beaumont family?
No way. This woman couldn't be allowed anywhere near the Beaumont family.
Paisley checked the time, guessing Serena should be awake by now. "Diana, my daughter is still in the hospital. I need to head back."
Given the reason, Diana couldn't keep her and personally escorted her to the door. "Alright, go now. We'll chat again next time. I really love your paintings, and your shows too- I'm a huge fan!"
Even at the last moment, Diana didn't miss the chance to score points with Paisley.
Lauren, feeling frustrated, wanted to approach Paisley for a chat, but Paisley didn't give her the chance. Without even looking at her, she got into her car and drove off.
"Paisley!" Lauren called out behind the car, looking flustered and regretful.
The ladies who followed out exchanged glances. They had never seen Lauren so awkward. In stark contrast to Lauren's embarrassment, Diana was overjoyed. "Oh, I just clicked so well with Paisy. She's such a perfect match for Nathaniel!" As Diana passed by Lauren, her expression was full of triumph. Lauren stood frozen, feeling anxious. She couldn't stay at this event a second longer.
She had to rush home and tell Dominick immediately. Someone was trying to steal his wife.
