Chapter 97 - Death Was Upon Her!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At that moment, all Penelope wanted to do was to charge in and relieve her hatred by slashing Samantha a thousand times.
Barely one step later, her gaze landed on Timothy’s figure and she forced herself to control her restlessness.
She would have barged right in without a second thought if she was still that naive little rich daughter, but the cruel reality had taught her in just a few months that being impulsive solved no problems. In fact, she would be the one who ended up on the losing end.
Although she was unafraid of Samantha, she was in no position to be provoking Timothy!
Penelope gritted her teeth until they nearly broke before forcing herself to turn around and leave.
As soon as she returned home and stepped inside the house, she could not avoid hearing her parents quarreling. Her mother’s voice was sharp and terrifying while her father’s was extremely cold.
When she walked to the living room, she happened to see her father slapping her mother right in the face. The force was so great that her mother fell over, hit the coffee table, and cried out in cold sweat from the immense pain.
Penelope rushed up, pushed Justin away, and glared angrily at him. “How can you beat Mom like that, Dad? You’re obviously the one who cheated on her first and got that b*tch Sheena pregnant. What right do you have to lose your temper?!”
Justin was already incensed when he heard that, and rather than showing an ounce of shame, he became even angrier instead. “Your mother is the one who’s causing trouble every day like a madwoman when she failed to see the bigger picture here. She’s lucky that all I did was slap her face. Sheena’s currently pregnant, so her body is weak and she can’t be overstimulated. If I ever find out that you’re giving her a hard time, I’ll hold you accountable for anything that happens to her and her child!”
Penelope’s eyes turned red. She never would have imagined that her father, who had raised her ever since she was young, would say such words to him.
“Are you even human, Justin? If the child in that b*tch’s stomach is yours, then what about Penny? Did you actually threaten Penny just because of that b*tch!”
In her anger, Violet tried once again to attack. She struggled and charged toward Justin again, wanting to fight him to the death!
However, she had not even laid hands on Justin when he mercilessly kicked her. Violet collapsed to the ground again and was unable to get up at that moment.
“Mommy!” Penelope squatted down hurriedly to help her.
Justin looked down condescendingly at the mother-daughter duo. His words became even more ruthless as he said, “It’s only because of both your stupidity that Timothy is pissed off. Even our company’s business partners are terminating their contract with us and want to completely disassociate themselves from us. The company’s now in such a big crisis, yet the both of you are still causing trouble every day without fail!
“I’m warning you two. If you want to continue staying in this home, you’d best know your place. Otherwise, I’ll get a divorce and the two of you can get the hell out of here!”
After saying those cruel words, Justin strode away without giving them a second look!

Penelope helped Violet up, sat her on the sofa, and told the servant to bring them an ice pack. She wiped Violet’s tears, but they continued streaming down so profusely that there was no way to wipe them all up.
“Mommy, don’t cry!” Penelope gritted her teeth and said bitterly, “Weren’t you the one who told me that there’s no use crying!”
Crying was never going to change the heart of a man whose heart had already changed. It would only annoy him even more!
Violet was well aware of that truth, but she still could not accept that her husband, who had been obedient to her for so many years, would dare to treat her like that!
It was a known fact that when she got married to him, her family background was higher than that of the Schmidts, and Justin was only able to be where he was by relying on the help of her family!
Seeing that Violet was still trapped in her thoughts, Penelope grasped her shoulder and forced the woman to look at her. She spoke very clearly, “Mommy, do you know who it was that caused this to happen to our family?”
“Who else could it be? Isn’t it that b*tch Sheena!”
The mere mention of Sheena made Violet eager to skin that woman alive and drain her blood!
“No. Samantha’s the culprit!” Penelope told Violet exactly what she had heard and seen in the hospital.
Violet was truly shocked. “Are you.. Is what you said true?”
Would a disgraced girl like Samantha really be able to do all that?
“It’s true!” Penelope gritted her teeth and said, “We’ve been underestimating her. That’s why she could take advantage of us. If that wasn’t the case, our plan during the silver wedding anniversary wouldn’t have failed. Dad won’t be seduced by that b*tch Sheena and I’ll be Timmy’s wife now too!”
“You’re right..”
Violet recalled what happened that day, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she became. “That little b*tch, Samantha, has a really vicious heart. She not only separated you and Timothy, but even broke our family into pieces!”
“Yes, you’re finally aware Mommy!” Penelope was very pleased. “What should we do now? We can’t let Samantha continue living happily!”
Violet stopped crying and took a few deep breaths. “I’m not going to let her off the hook!”
She took the ice pack handed over by the servant and put it directly on her eyelids. The coldness restored her sanity instantly and her expression became icily grim.
“Samantha is already married, but there she is hooking up with Timothy again. What do you think will happen if both her husband and Timothy knew that she’s having an affair?”
Penelope listened to Violet’s words with a smile on her face. “You’re right, Mommy. When that happens, both her husband and Timmy will rip her to shreds!”
Violet sneered. “I’ll send someone to find out who Samantha’s husband is! Samantha’s death will be upon her soon!”
She picked up the phone and made a call.

Early the next morning, Samantha had no dreams throughout the entire night and woke up naturally. She stretched her waist unconsciously without opening her eyes.
After stretching her body for some time, she realized that something was not quite right and opened her eyes to look beside her.
No one was there and she was the only person on that small bed.
She blinked in confusion and wondered for a moment if Timothy’s appearance last night was just her imagination.
Did Timothy leave?
Before Samantha had time to rejoice, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open and in came Timothy dressed in casual sportswear.
She had forgotten that Timothy used to have the habit of working out after getting up in the morning. He probably went out to exercise earlier, and her happiness had been in vain.
There was nothing for her to say to him, so she looked away, got out of bed, and went to the bathroom to freshen up.
Even though Samantha’s expression did not reveal much, Timothy could still see the slight change in her expression and his thin lips pursed slightly as a result.
Even though he was forcibly making her stay by his side, her heart was still miles apart from his and there was no way for them to come into contact at all.
Timothy stared fixedly at Samantha’s rear figure for a moment, then picked up the phone and made a call.
