" Those things were supposed to be mine . You , the mistress's daughter , have no right to enjoy the Reynolds family's wealth ! " Josephine could endure anything except her mother being insulted . She rushed at Dorothy and squeezed the words out between her teeth . " My mother wasn't a mistress . When she married Daâ , she didn't even know you or your mother existed . " You and your family pushed her to death ! " Dorothy hadn't expected Josephine to snap back and raised her hand to slap her . At that moment , the lounge door suddenly swung open .

" Nathaniel looked down and saw red rashes spreading across Dorothy's skin quickly . " What do we do ? The party isn't over . I can't embarrass you . Makeup ... .. right , use makeup to cover it ! " Nathaniel gripped Dorothy's wrist . " This is not the time to think about makeup . Come on , I'll take you to the hospital .

But she felt no pain , as if she had fallen into an abyss and all her senses were gone . She asked a waiter for a first - aid kit and , trembling , wrapped her wounds .

" " I heard you got bullied at school and have probably been used by so many men . Nathaniel would never want a filthy woman like you . " " Drink all this chili water . Consider it your apology to Dorothy . Or else we'll make you pay ! " Josephine's vision blurred , and her mind began to drift .
