Chapter 2014 What Gives You The Right
Norton tried threatening and tempting her, but Lorraine remained unmoved.
Finally, she said placidly, “Norton, stop wasting your energy. Get out now. I really don't wish to see you!”
Suddenly, the veins on Norton's forehead popped as he said with a chilling gaze in his eyes, “Lorraine, if you refuse
to agree, you can look forward to spending the rest of your life here.”
Upon hearing that, Lorraine let out an unfathomable laugh.
“Don't worry. That is not going to happen. My daughter will be here to save me very soon.”
“Ha! Do you really think your daughter is capable enough to take you away under my nose?” Suddenly, Mildred
pushed the door open and strode into the room furiously.
As she was worried that her husband would catch feelings for his former lover again, she had been eavesdropping
outside all this time.
“Mildred, I know it's hard for you to believe it, but try to have a little patience. You will receive your karma for
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇteverything you have done to harm my daughter and me!” Lorraine glared at Mildred fearlessly, her eyes filled with
resentment.
Enraged, Mildred dashed past Norton and stopped in front of Lorraine before raising her hand and slapping the
woman across her face.
A loud slap rang out and reverberated in the air.
“Who do you think you are? Who gave you the right to curse me?” Mildred bellowed through gritted teeth, almost
choking on her rage.
The next moment, Norton pulled her back and said, "Mildred, what are you doing? Why bother arguing with
someone like her!”
Almost instantly, a red palm print surfaced on Lorraine's left cheek.
Lorraine had already lost count of the number of times she had been slapped by Mildred.
As she used to be weak and cowardly, she had never dared to defend herself or retaliate. Every time it happened,
all she did was cower in fear.
However, things were no longer the same. After returning from the brink of death, and in addition to her daughter's
constant encouragement and support, Lorraine was no longer willing to be someone else's punching bag. She
leaped to her feet at once and returned a forceful slap to Mildred.
Smack!
Mildred froze and widened her eyes in disbelief.
Norton was stunned as well and looked at Lorraine with a shocked expression.
He was under the impression that Lorraine was a soft and weak woman who would never be able to stand up for
herself.
“Mildred, do you think being the daughter of a prominent family gives you the right to treat others inhumanely?
What makes you think you can scold or hit others whenever you like?” Lorraine was not intending to stop at just one
slap.
As she raised her hand, preparing to give Mildred a second slap, Norton reached out and grabbed her hand.
“Lorraine, that's enough!" Norton chided coldly before pushing her away.

After returning to her senses, fury surged through Mildred. From the distorted expression on her face, it was
obvious that she was dying to strangle Lorraine there and then.
Cursing loudly, Mildred was just about to attack Lorraine when Norton stopped her.
“Stop it! Why are the two of you fighting? We are supposed to be having a discussion. Mildred, calm down!”
In the end, Norton had to drag his wife out of the guest room.
After the two of them left, a satisfied smile appeared on Lorraine's face. She was not feeling the least bit aggrieved.
To her, Norton was no different from a stranger. She would no longer do foolish things because of him.
Naturally, nothing he did would affect her.
Currently, Lorraine's priority was to find a way to contact her daughter. She was concerned that Madilyn would be
worried if she did not see her when she returned home. Lorraine could only hope that, with Jonathan around, the
girl would be less anxious.
Lorraine was certain that Norton would threaten Madilyn to return to Xandenia.
Jonathan would be accompanying her, right?He's definitely the best match for her.
