When Diana saw the look on Yvonne's face, she panicked.
Then, she hurriedly yelled at Yolanda, "Yolanda, you're just a young girl. How can you be so evil? Both of you are my daughters, so why wouldn't I love the both of you?
"I scolded you because you aren't hardworking, and you failed to meet my expectations!
"The reason why I'm so strict with you is because I want you to turn over a new leaf! Look at how you're behaving now. With a previous criminal record, do you think there'd be any school that would accept you?"
…
Yolanda ignored Diana's nagging and returned to her bedroom. Then, she locked the door and took out the antidote from the hospital.
Soon after, a sharp pain could be felt in her stomach. She gritted her teeth and endured half an hour of immense pain.
A few hours later, a black and sticky liquid covered Yolanda's body.
She opened her eyes and exhaled deeply before she went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Since there were too many toxins inside her body, the antidote couldn't force it all out. She would need half a year to purge all the toxins out of her body.
As it was gradually removed from her body, Yolanda's condition improved.
It was morning by the time she had finished showering, and she approached her closet to change before taking a walk outside.
Yet, when she opened her closet, there were only a few clothes inside that were from three years ago.
The only outfit that Yolanda could fit into was her junior high school uniform.
After putting it on, she headed outside and jogged around the neighborhood. Then, she ate some churros from a roadside stall.
As expected, when she returned to the Henderson residence, Diana and Yvonne had already finished their breakfast. They didn't leave any food for Yolanda.
Diana was already dressed immaculately, and she looked at Yolanda in disgust. However, since she was worried that their conversation the previous night would affect the way Yvonne viewed her, Diana still spoke up.
"You came back in time. Since you don't have any accessories to wear for the art exhibit, why don't you buy a few pieces with me?" Diana walked away in her heels before Yolanda could reply.
The latter kept quiet and followed Diana outside. When they boarded the car, Yolanda sat in the passenger's seat. This made Diana pretty satisfied with her behavior.
Unexpectedly, she didn't scold Yolanda for embarrassing her. Instead, she just sat in the driver's seat coldly.
Soon, the car stopped at the most luxurious commercial street in Dowonair. Many renowned stores in Riverdale City were in the district.
Diana and Yolanda entered a jewelry shop that was made up of five floors. Once they entered the shop, they headed to the necklace section on the second floor.
"Pick one for yourself," Diana said.
Then, she scrutinized Yolanda and added, "We'll head upstairs to buy an appropriate dress for you later on."
Yolanda wasn't interested in jewelry, so she randomly picked a diamond necklace from the counter.
When the shop assistant saw her old uniform and fat figure, she looked disgusted. But she realized that Diana, who stood beside Yolanda, was donned in branded clothes and seemed to be wealthy.
As such, she carefully brought out the necklace and said, "This necklace is the latest item in our shop. This suits you like…"
The shop assistant stared at Yolanda's chubby face and tried to think of an appropriate way to describe her.
But before she could finish talking, Diana shrieked, "20 thousand dollars?"
When the shop assistant heard that, her smile froze.
