Chapter 61.
“Why were you so mean-
Pop!
A loud slap cut her off, and it almost knocked Erin’s nose out of place.
“You!” Erin covered the side of her face, staring at the person in front of her in disbelief.
Pop!
Another slap.
Jovana slapped her hard in the face, “Who do you think you are? Who do you think your daughter is? Why are you barking like a dog in front of me? I schemed against you? You think you’re even worth it for me to stoop so low?”
Jovana’s cold eyes were sharp as a blade.
Stuff?
Lost face?
She had lived for forty or fifty years. Where had she ever heard this kind of sarcastic talk?
Erin’s face turned red and blue, her white teeth almost grinding to pieces, and she went crazy and rushed up to grab Jovana.
“What are you doing? Stop!”
The door of the ward was slammed open.
Armando walked over with a dark face, yanked Erin away, and put Jovana behind him.
Saw the slap mark on her face, looked especially harsh and obvious on her fair skin.
His face got even darker. First, he held her face and asked her worriedly.
“She hit you?”
Jovana pressed her lips together, her eyes a bit red, and nodded…
Armando squinted his eyes gloomily.
Erin saw Armando, and there was a sly glint in her eyes.
She remembered Juliette had told her, Armando really spoiled her, always trying to make her happy, and he didn’t care about his wife at all.
And it wouldn’t be long before she took Jovana’s place.
I heard that this time, just to make her happy, they even gave the Marketing Department Manager position to her younger brother!
Erin wiped her tears,”Mr. Dunbar, Jovana bullied my daughter, she got people to beat up my girl. My poor daughter is still lying in the hospital getting treatment! How could she be so cruel? My daughter was only twenty-two this year, and she still did it! She’s not even human!”

Jovana listened and frowned.
“Mr. Dunbar, you were an honest man, you had to stand up for us!”
Erin talked to herself and didn’t notice the cold look on the man’s face.
“Shut up!” Armando looked up, his eyes sharp.
Erin went quiet in an instant, but she still couldn’t help mumbling, “I didn’t lie to you, I was telling the
truth!”
Pop!
Armando didn’t bother to say a word and just slapped her hard. Erin was totally stunned.

“I never hit women, you’re the first! If you dare talk nonsense and slander my wife again, I won’t let you off!”
Armando snapped, with a sharp, hostile vibe all over him.
Jovana couldn’t help but look at him in shock, not believing he actually went after Juliette’s family. That was really something.
Erin’s right cheek was swollen from being hit, she looked like a mess, just standing there totally stunned…
“Mom!”
A soft, gentle voice slowly came over.
Juliette walked in, pale-faced, wearing a hospital gown.
“Juliette…”
Erin saw her daughter, like she had grabbed onto a lifeline.
She complained with grievance, “This is so unfair. Jovana bullied you, and now she’s bullying me… You must have suffered a lot following her, right?”
“My poor daughter…”
Armando frowned, his deep eyes dark and hard to read.
Jovana’s face suddenly turned cold, and she couldn’t help glancing at Armando… Sure enough, when he heard that Juliette was upset, his expression changed too.
At that moment, it felt like her heart got stabbed with an awl.
It hurt.
“Mom!”
Juliette suddenly spoke up to stop Erin.
She held her arm, looking all delicate and weak, “This has nothing to do with Jovana, don’t talk
nonsense…”
Erin’s eyes widened, and she felt really wronged.
Juliette lowered her eyes, touched her swollen face where she’d been hit, and said quietly, “The two guys

who bullied me, their accents didn’t sound like they’re from Los Angeles, more like they’re from our hometown San Diego. Ms. Atherton is a native Los Angeles person, how would she know anyone from San Diego? It couldn’t have been her…”
Hearing that, Jovana suddenly frowned and clenched her fists tightly.
This Juliette almost said that it was Harland who stood up for her!
Jovana instinctively looked at Armando.
She could clearly feel the man next to her getting a bit more intense…
Erin hugged her daughter with a heavy heart, “You’re just too kind, and it’s my fault too. I didn’t have the power to protect you, so you got hurt…”
