Before Mr. Olson could even reach out to place a comforting hand on his daughter’s shoulder and ask what had happened, Veronica shot him a poisonous glare.
She took a step back, refusing to let him touch her. “Why… why did you adopt that bitch, Winnie?”
Mr. Olson froze, then let out a long sigh. “Veronica, so you’ve already heard about what happened?”
Veronica did not respond. She walked forward in silence instead. Her aura was entirely different from before, so cold and oppressive that even the servants did not dare approach her.
Finally, she stopped in front of the vase that Mr. Olson had just picked up and set down again.
“Veronica…”
Mrs. Olson’s expression changed.
In the next second, Veronica lifted the vase with both hands and slammed it violently to the ground.
People scattered in panic. Shards of porcelain exploded outward, sharp fragments flying-nearly striking
Mr. Olson.
The butler reacted quickly and pulled him aside just in time.
Still, a maid who failed to dodge in time had her arm slashed open.
A cry rang out. Bright red blood trickled down her arm and dripped onto the carpet.
Mrs. Olson immediately barked, “Are you all stupid? Clean it up! The carpet is ruined!”
The vase was an antique, worth a fortune-but it was already shattered, so be it. It had been broken by her precious daughter anyway; there was nothing to be done.
But the carpet was custom-made by hand, equally valuable. Seeing it stained by a servant’s blood made
her heart ache.
At her order, the bleeding maid quickly pressed her sleeve over the wound and retreated in haste.
Smashing one vase was not enough. Veronica turned and began grabbing other expensive ornaments, one after another, hurling them to the floor.
The butler hurriedly ordered the servants to stop her.
Mr. Olson finally realized something was wrong.
“Enough! What are you throwing a tantrum for? What kind of shock did you go through?”
“What shock…” Veronica sneered, her arm still restrained. She lifted her head and glared at him. ” Whatever I went through-it’s all thanks to you. Winnie deserves to die-but so do all of you! Because every last bit of this… it’s all your fault!”

Mrs. Olson’s heart ached seeing her daughter like this. She quickly waved for the servants to let her go and stepped forward to comfort her.
But Veronica suddenly screamed, “Don’t touch me! None of you… don’t touch me!”
Seeing her so resistant, Mrs. Olson froze and dared not approach further.
“Veronica, what’s wrong? Tell Mom…”
“What’s wrong?” Mr. Olson cut in angrily. “She’s been spoiled rotten by you!”
With a sharp wave of his hand, he ordered the butler to take her back to her room.
The butler obeyed immediately and, ignoring Mrs. Olson’s protests, forcibly escorted Veronica away.
“What are you doing? She just came back-she’s clearly been bullied by outsiders…”
Mrs. Olson complained at him, then tried to follow, only to be stopped again.
“I already told you-this daughter of yours has been spoiled rotten. What more do you want?”
“If you won’t comfort her, I will!” she shot back. “All you do is yell-you can’t see how wronged she is. But I’m her mother. I know she needs me right now.”
