Melanie had a congenital heart condition and psychological issues; she couldn't be under any stress. Moreover, if this really ended up on record, Laura would probably...
His face hardened as he kicked the shards in front of her aside and commanded, "Laura, apologize to Melanie!"
Laura's heart ached beyond words.
She lifted her head, her face drenched in tears, screaming in agony.
"Apologize? Why should I apologize? She is the one who is wrong! Yes, I am going to kill you, Melanie! Why don't you just die!"
"Laura, enough! Apologize to her, or get out of the Bill Family!"
Darren's expression darkened as he stood before her, towering over her with an overwhelming sense of authority.
But Laura was not afraid. She lifted her head and stared directly at him, speaking each word slowly.
"I won't apologize... I did nothing wrong!" Laura's eyes were bloodshot, filled with seething hatred.
The rain outside grew heavier, accompanied by flashes of lightning and thunder. It illuminated the deep coldness in her gaze.
Her heart was filled with hatred for Melanie and for Darren.
Meanwhile, Darren was pierced by the intensity of her gaze.
