Chapter 1596

"Taking someone's cash by force is called 'robbery,' and 'compensating' means you've got to cough up

some dough because you messed something up." Arabella coolly explained, eyeing her with disdain,

"Aren't you old enough to know the difference, or are you just retarded?"

Katherine fumed, her cheeks flushing red, "I can't believe it, Carol, siding with others to gang up on me.

Just you wait."

"Think you can just leave without paying up? As if," Carol grabbed her arm to pull her back.

"What more do you want? You're gonna rob me in broad daylight? Help! Can't anyone see this? Help

me! Mom, Carol's bullying me, Mom!" Katherine's voice was piercing, drawing the immediate attention

of a couple of clerks who dashed over, with the fastest being a posh lady.

The lady stormed in, shoving Carol aside with furious strength, "You little brat, you dare to bring trouble

to us? Unbelievable!"

She whipped out her phone, trembling with rage, and made a phone call, "Your precious daughter is

causing a scene in front of Katherine's boutique, disrupting business! When she demanded cash and

Katherine refused, she grabbed Katherine by the collar, ready to throw punches! Her manners are

atrocious! What, you don't give her enough allowance? She's so desperate she's resorted to daylight

robbery?"

There was a request for Carol to take the call, but the lady barked, "Why should she? So she can spin

more lies? I welcomed her and her brother into our home with open arms, treated them like my own,

yet this is the thanks I get? She's crossed the line today, and if I don't teach her the lesson her late

mom obviously didn't, she'll never learn respect!"

Maureen angrily ended the call, raising her hand to slap Carol.

Carol caught her wrist, her voice ice cold, "You're not the one to discipline me in this house!"

"You insolent girl, you dare defy me? Remember, I am your dad’s wife! The moment you set foot here,

you should be calling me 'Mom' and obeying my rules!"

"I do have two moms, one who birthed me and one who raised me." Carol appraised callously, "And

what do you think you are?"

Maureen was shocked by Carol's audacity, "Listen to this! Everyone here, remember her words and tell

her dad exactly what she said! I refuse to believe I can't put her in her place today! Grab her!"

The clerks moved forward, encircling Carol.

"People from QY are already on their way. You want a fight? Let's clear up the matter of the knocking

off designs first."

Arabella's interjection left everyone momentarily stunned, and Katherine's eyes darted around a bit

guiltily, "And who might you be?"

"Your worst nightmare. All these designs could bankrupt you," Arabella stated coldly. QY wasn't known

for playing nice. She knew exactly how long the shop had been profiting from their boutique in the mall,

and the sum to settle might be more than they could afford, not to mention the impending

compensation.

"What's this QY? And what about 'knocking off' designs? These clothes are all my daughter's original

creations, so stop trying to confuse everyone!" Maureen was desperate to find an excuse to discipline

Carol. But then, the representatives from QY actually arrived!

They bowed respectfully to Arabella, whispering something to her, and then approached Maureen and

Katherine.

Upon Katherine realized these were indeed QY's people, her bravado evaporated, replaced by a

creeping fear.
