Every time she referred to herself as 'Mom', it only pushed Isabella further over the edge.
Suddenly, like a lunatic, she grabbed a fistful of Agnes's hair and slammed her head viciously against the floor.
"Shut up! You shut your mouth!"
"Why did you even give birth to me?! Why did you tell me?! If you already managed to sneak me into the Lancaster family, why didn't you take this secret to your grave?!"
"You did this on purpose! You ruined my life, you destroyed everything, and now you dump this on me..."
"Why am I not a Lancaster? Why do I have to be your daughter?!"
Agnes was battered and bleeding from the attack, but she still clung to Isabella desperately, refusing to let go.
This was her final chance to be close to her own flesh and blood.
"I'm sorry, Isabella, it's because Mom is useless..." She sobbed, shoving a small piece of paper into Isabella's hand. "Mom probably won't get to see you get married now. This is as far as I can help you."
Her fingers trembled. "This is the nest egg Mom saved up for you. Take this money, be careful with it. Once you graduate from a top university like Marington College, things will get better."
"You have to survive. Live a good life..."
Isabella didn't even glance at the paper.
Staring at the bruised and bloodied Agnes before her, she felt not a single ounce of gratitude—only profound disgust and towering hatred. "Get out! I don't need your help at all!"
She despised this woman for passing down such filthy, low-born blood!
She hated her for destroying her billionaire dreams.

On the second floor.
Julian looked down coldly at the circus unfolding below.
Although he couldn't hear exactly what they were saying, he could see Isabella acting like a total psycho, brutally beating the nanny who had raised her since infancy.
Meanwhile, Agnes's face was bloodied, yet she continued to hug Isabella tightly, sobbing and refusing to let go.
He could faintly hear Isabella screaming hysterically, spitting out words like "worthless maid" and "get out."
It was truly nauseating.
"Beyond saving."
Julian walked down the stairs and spoke coldly. "Pull them apart. Throw Isabella out."
The bodyguards moved in, forcefully ripping Isabella away from the Agnes she was pummeling.
