"Mr. Hawk, how could you do this to Jessica? You're helping Wendy bully her!" Lilian said, her voice trembling dith disbelief.
Stanley shot Lilian a cold glance, his eyes sharp and unwavering "And you? Isn't Wendy your own daughter? How do you explain what you did?" Lilian was caught off guard, unable to respond to the biting retort.

Halsey let out a laugh"If you don't grovel this time, next time, even if you want to, you'll have to wait in line to do so." Jessica, already pale, turned even more ashen.
Wendy didn't wait for her response. "It seems like you haven't made up your mind. Well, I'm leaving." "Yeah, let's go." Halsey looped her arm through Wendy's, and the two of them started to walk away.
But Jessica wasn't going to let them leave just like that. Her hands clenched into tight fists at her sides, and she shouted after them, "Fine, Wendy, I'll grovel!" Wendy stopped in her tracks and turned around, her gaze locking onto Jessica. And then, Jessica groveled.
In front of the entire elite of Hovendale, Jessica groveled before Wendy..
Her eyes filled with tears, burning with humiliation. This was the greatest disgrace she had ever experienced. 'Wendy, please, I beg you, save me.

Lilian's heart felt as if it were pierced by a thousand arrows. In that instant, the hate she had for Wendy reached its boiling point.
Edith stomped her feet, wailing in frustration, "What is happening? Our family is ruined! We're truly finished!"

"I'm not going to save you." Jessica froze. "You toldto grovel! How could you-" "Yes, I told you to grovel, but I never promised you that groveling would save you."

Wendy continued, "How did my father die? Who killed him I want you to givean answer. In three days, at my father's grave, I want all the people who killed him to prove before his grave, confess their sins, and turn themselves in."
Edith and Lilian stared at Wendy, their faces pale. In her eyes, there was a cold, lethal glint, like a sharpened blade ready to strike.
Wendy's voice was icy as she spoke again, "You think todays the end? No-I'm telling you, today is just the begim e' beginning! All these years, you've walked all over my father's grave, enjoying wealth and luxury. Now, it's tfor you to pay it all back!" With that, Wendy turned and walked away.
Her slender, graceful figure quickly disappeared into the night.
