Christina's appearance was something no one had expected.

She stormed towards Melody, eyes sharp and filled with fury, not at all like a mother looking at her daughter-but more like a sworn enemy.

Her purse sliced through the air, aimed directly at Melody's head, as though it had a life of its own.

In the next instant. Melody, still calm but sensing the aggression, yanked Derrick, who had been standing. near her with questions and uncertainty still in his eyes, right into the path of the incoming attack.

The hard leather purse, with its sharp edges, struck the back of Derrick's head with a resounding thud.

Bang!

It all happened too fast.

Before anyone could react, Derrick was already clutching the back of his head. He was bending over in pain, his face pale.

The pain surged.

He could feel a warm, sticky sensation-he was bleeding.

The purse fell to the floor, its sharp edges now smeared with blood.

The courtroom fell into an eerie silence, all eyes now on the uninvited intruder.

Derrick's brows furrowed in pain. Despite this, he couldn't help but glance up at the person who had caused this-Melody, whose calm face still held a faint look of indifference.

Melody's lips curved slightly as she feigned surprise, her voice dripping with mockery. "Oh dear! Mrs. Shield, why get so worked up? You even ended up hitting your own son. Such behavior is truly frightening to an outsider like me."

The young woman raised an eyebrow with deliberate sarcasm.

Her clear eyes met Christina's enraged gaze, filled with defiance and scorn.

Melody's eyes briefly swept over Derrick, who was gripping the plaintiff's table for support with his body. still struggling to stay upright.

There was no emotion in her gaze.

Her voice turned cold and stated, "And Mrs. Shield, you might be used to being overbearing and doing whatever comes to your mind, but let me remind you this is a courtroom. If you dare hit me, I will charge you with intentional injury and send your children to jail. How about that? Fancy joining your children in prison?"

The cold, unflinching young woman diffused the situation effortlessly. She also made it clear for all to hear, that she was no longer part of the Shields.

Christina had no right to lecture her.

If Christina wanted to lash out and acted like a madwoman, the only one who would suffer would be her

own son.

Christina realized that her purse had actually struck Derrick on the head; she immediately felt sorry for him.

"A-Are you alright, Derrick? I didn't mean fo-my target was Melody! It's the fault of that ingrate! If she hadn't pulled you in the way, you wouldn't have been hurt!"

Christina trembled as she rushed over and helped Derrick to his feet. Her eyes were brimming with worry.

She quickly called for Derrick's assistant to help him get to where Carson was sitting.

Meanwhile, Melody casually twirled a small recording device between her fingers and pressed play.

Christina's angry words echoed clearly-every word is now recorded.

Melody's cold eyes swept across the room as she quietly stowed the device away.

Well, Christina had just admitted her intent to harm, and now she had the evidence.

Oblivious, Christina glared at Melody with frustration. Her voice filled with disdain. "Melody, why are you bullying Suzie again?"

Christina frowned, trying to return to her usual regal, aristocratic demeanor as she resumed her usual habit of questioning.

Back when Melody lived with the Shields, she frequently clashed with Suzzana.

Suzzana always defended Melody.

"Mom, I fell on my own; it had nothing to do with Mel. Mom, it wasn't Mel's fault I had an allergic reaction; I just couldn't resist the food. Mom, I'll make sure Mel grows to like me and our family. I won't let you worry. Oh, and Mom, she really does love those limited-edition gowns you bought for us."
