Second Chance: Marrying into Wealth Chapter 52

"Slap! You have the nerve to seduce Lawrence and still think you're right? All your arguments are nonsense. I don't even know how someone with a brain like yours got into college. I suspect you cheated!"

Paula couldn't stand it anymore and slapped Clara.

Brianna, watching, wanted to step forward, "Stop it! If you keep hitting, something bad will happen. Calm down!"

Paula immediately glared at her warningly, "You're not the mistress here. If you don't want to get involved in this war and be seen as an accomplice, stay away. Otherwise, we won't be polite."

Brianna's face changed, hesitating and not daring to step forward.

This angered Clara, "You useless thing! Can't you see I'm being hit? Get lost, useless person."

Clara probably realized Brianna was unreliable and ignored her embarrassed expression. She glared viciously at me and Paula, "The one not loved is the mistress. Can someone who can be stolen really be called stolen? Try hitting me again, I won't let you off."

At this moment, her hair was a mess, her face bruised and swollen.

Seeing her dare to threaten Paula, I hit her hard on the buttocks, making a loud noise, "I hit you, so what? Bitch, you're a mistress and still so arrogant. Today I hit you, and even if everyone sees it, no one will dare help you."

Paula took the opportunity to take out her phone and continued filming Clara's face, attracting more onlookers, "Everyone, come and see! This is truly immoral. Nowadays, mistresses have become so rampant.

A seductive vixen, seducing someone else's husband without remorse, posting all kinds of sex videos, all of her with my friend's husband in bed, provoking my friend and feeling proud. Everyone should remember her face, so she doesn't seduce anyone else."

This mall was in the busiest area, with a variety of goods. Downstairs was for shopping, and upstairs for dining, so even on weekdays, there were many people.

Hearing Paula's words, many people gathered around, pointing at Clara.

"She dresses well, but she's a mistress. If I were her parents, I'd be ashamed to death and kick her out of the house."

"Don't you know there's a type of woman now? They train to disguise as rich, beautiful women just to seduce men."

"How could she do such a bad thing? So young, she could do anything, but she chose to be a mistress. She deserves to be beaten."

"If my husband dared to have a mistress, I'd make sure both the mistress and the bad man were scorned by everyone!"

People were saying all sorts of things, but all were scolding Clara.

After all, mainstream social values do not tolerate mistresses. Everyone gets married aiming to be a wife, so they all hate mistresses who seduce husbands, making almost everyone despise such immoral people.

Some young people couldn't help but say, "Quick, this wife beating the mistress should be recorded and posted on social media, so everyone can see. It will also warn people to be careful of this woman."

"Right, women like this usually don't end well. They'll likely be dumped by the cheating man and then marry an honest man. We should warn honest men about her."

Many people also raised their phones to record Clara's face.

"Bitch, don't record!"

Clara was shocked and grabbed me harder.

Seeing enough videos were taken and others joining in, Paula put away her phone and helped.

With her phone away, Paula seemed to unleash herself, pinning Clara down and hitting her left and right, giving Clara no chance to fight back.

You should know, Paula had gone through some unpleasant experiences before. To protect herself, she learned martial arts specifically for fighting. Clara was no match for her.

Brianna, seeing Clara beaten black and blue, feared something bad would happen and secretly called the police.

As for me, I couldn't control myself, thinking of my child, Lawrence's betrayal, and their secret affair. I wanted to beat her until her mother wouldn't recognize her.

If not for my last bit of sanity, Clara might not be able to breathe by now.

"Bitch, this is just a simple lesson. In the future, avoid me. If I see you again, I'll beat you again." I raised my fist, feeling a bit tired from the beating.

Then I pulled Paula to stop her.

Beating Clara felt satisfying, but we were just venting, not intending to seriously injure her and take responsibility.

Seeing us step back, Brianna quickly went to help Clara, probably fearing we'd attack again, and warned, "You, what you're doing is illegal."

Paula sneered at Brianna, "You're so scared you can't even speak clearly, yet you dare to challenge me. With your courage, didn't you already call the police? What are you afraid of? Melinda and I are right here waiting for the police. We're not afraid. After all, dealing with a mistress, even the police will understand. At most, we'll pay some medical expenses.

If not for the law, honestly, Melinda and I would want to beat Clara to death. But we have to take some interest, since she seduced Lawrence!"

I didn't plan to leave with Paula.

Paula knew the law, and I learned some from her, knowing that staying would at most result in some compensation. After all, I was also slightly injured.

I touched my face, it still hurt a bit.

I was somewhat deliberate, knowing that with mutual injuries, the police would likely see it as a mutual fight.

Clara's injuries were painful but not serious and hard to talk about.

Paula provocatively glanced at the two opposite, then took out her phone, showing me the videos she recorded, "Melinda, I'll send them to you. Later, I'll have them posted on social media, so everyone can see what a mistress looks like."

"Good!"

I raised my eyebrows, feeling relieved after venting my long-held anger.

Besides her law firm, Paula also had a PR company, best at handling public opinion, so I wasn't afraid of losing out.

At this moment, Clara, still not subdued, mocked us, "Melinda, is that all? I really overestimated you."

I frowned, not yet responding.

Clara provocatively said, "See, I'm a mistress, and you can't do anything about it. Also, let me tell you clearly, I don't care to be someone else's mistress, but I enjoy seducing Lawrence and being his mistress!"

My face darkened.

Sure enough, Vance's guess was right. Clara's target was me, as if she had a special hatred for me.

For no reason.

But I knew she was doing it on purpose, to make me angry.

This time, I wouldn't let her control me.
