Hans was so angry that he wanted to beat someone up when he saw that Calista had run out, but his wife- quickly stopped him.
“What are you afraid of? Once Benedict agrees to leave Calista here, we’ll have plenty of time to torture her. Besides, since Calista has made a run for it, it shows that that she’s still afraid of us, so she’s not a threat to us at all. Your third brother’s full month celebration party is more important now, let’s go get changed first!”
Hans snorted and decided to let Calista off for now. She was so full of herself earlier, but still ran away in fear anyway. How different was she from before?
How different was she from before?
After Calista left the back hall, she immediately went to the main hall where most of the guests had already arrived. It was a buffet style party, so everyone was just milling around, waiting for the host to start the party officially,
Benedict hesitated when he heard what Yelena told him. Leave Calista here for a month? He wasn’t willing to, but he couldn’t think of a good reason to refuse her.
Suddenly the main door of the hall was kicked open with a loud bang!
Everyone was startled – the Langleys were an important family in Horington. Who had the guts to o something like that?
do
Calista walked in with large strides and a cold expression on her face. Very few people present recognized her because she rarely came out of the house.
Calista had a murderous look in her eyes, making the guests feel uncomfortable, but luckily she was headed in Yelena’s direction.
Yelena knew that Calista must have taken a terrible scolding from her family earlier, so she had a bright smile on her face. Whenever she saw Calista suffering, the feeling she had was even better than that after she had eaten delicious delicacies.
“Callic, you’ve come at the right time. Your father has agreed to let you stay here and play for an entire month.”
Benedict’s eyes widened. When had he agreed to that?
But he couldn’t say ything since everyone was watching, and could only tug Yelena’s sleeve with a frown.
Yelena pretended she didn’t feel him tugging at her and stepped forward to take Calista’s hand while saying in a friendly tone, “Callie, aren’t you happy…”
PAK! Calista slapped her and cut off any boastful words she meant to say,
There was an uproar in the hall! Someone had the gall to hit a Langley in their own house?!
Yelena felt all the blood rush to her face, and she glared at Calista in disbelief as she held her sore check. Calista dared to hit her? And slapped her in the face?

who Yelena was. Who was this person? Why was she attacking a Langley?
“Callie..” Benedict wanted to pull her back, but Yelena pushed him aside. Her eyes were burning with anger now, and she spat out each word in a low voice, “You little slut, how dare you hit me?!”
Calista smiled serenely, then raised her hand and gave another slap. This slap was so hard, Yelena fell onto the floor. Everyone quickly moved aside and stared in horror at Calista. Was this girl mad? Couldn’t they have a good chat first? Did she have to come out and hit another person?
“I’m slapping you, my lovely stepmother. Is it fun to accuse me? Was it delightful to hear how we were humiliated earlier in the other room?”
Calista was gleefully asking these questions as she massaged her wrist.
“Enough. Callic, can’t you see where we are?” Benedict could see that Calista was speaking up for him, but he had to stop her because this was not the right place to do so. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Yelena saw that Benedict had gone to block Calista but didn’t help her up, and she was furious.
But after she had heard all the gasps from the guests, she quickly stopped being angry with Benedict. Calista had dared to touch her in front of so many people, so she was going to bring Calista down today!
So even though the hate was practically bursting out from her eyes, she immediately bent her head down and started crying pitifully on the floor.
“Callie, why must you treat me like this? I’m your mother! I’m just concerned about you and would like to take you in hand. You’ve made a mess at home already, can’t you think about the Staffords‘ image outside?”
She sounded so pitiful and long suffering when she said this, and many people who didn’t know anything started looking at Calista as if she was an evil person
So this was Yelena’s stepdaughter? Even though she was very pretty, her character was terrible! She was indeed like how Yelena described her no manners, unteachable and disobedient! Poor Yelena!
–
Someone rushed over to help Yelena up. She was a friend of Yelena, and seeing how pitiful Yelena was, she became angry and started scolding Calista.
“So this is your stepdaughter? Such poor character and poor upbringing! She even dares to hit you in front of so many people! Yelena, don’t try to shield her. Send her to the police for a few days first!”
“I’ve never seen anyone dare to hit an elder before! Yelena took care of you all these years and you treat her like this? If you’re so bold outside, Yelena must be suffering at home! You unfilial child! With violent tendencies! Even a pet knows how to be grateful, but you’re even worse than an animal!” Another woman also came out to scold Calista, pointing a finger straight at her.
Yelena pretended to look very afraid of Calista, as if she had really been bullied badly at home, so that everyone watching would look poorly on Calista.
Previously there were some who didn’t quite believe Yelena when she spoke badly about Calista, but now everybody was on Yelena’s side after Calista had slapped her twice.
“Hurhurhur haha, HAHAHA!” Calista laughed coldly at first, then she burst out laughing loudly, and a fierce look flashed in her eyes. She looked at Yelena as if she was looking at garbage.

She pushed Benedict’s hand aside and asked slowly. “Unfilial? Worse than an animal? I would like to ask all of you watching! She specially arranged for her family to use their influence to humiliate her husband, and then watched gleefully as her husband got torn to shreds. Is she still worthy of being called a wife?”
Everyone was taken aback.
Calista laughed again. “She goes around badmouthing her husband’s daughter with his late wife. On the surface it sounds like she’s airing her grievances, but she’s been secretly oppressing her stepdaughter, and she’s worthy of being called a mother?”
What do you think my father and I were doing in the back hall? Yelena disgraced herself and my father wanted to divorce her, so she got her entire family to humiliate my father! To use their power to oppress him! There are many men here – let me ask you, what would you do if your wives got their family to point fingers at you and humiliate you?”
All the men present were just watching a good show, but when they considered the scenario Calista had painted, they felt that Benedict must be really pitiful. There was a good reason why men always married women with lower social standing than themselves.
Yelena began to panic with every word that Calista said. She didn’t expect Calista to just blurt everything out without considering her reputation.
When Benedict saw that Calista was deliberately speaking up for him, even though it was embarrassing considering the number of people watching, he felt warmth in his heart. Earlier in the back hall, Yelena hadn’t spoken up for him at all No, in fact, the Langleys had done this on her orders, and he would be lying if he said he wasn’t angered by how they had humiliated him like this.
“Ok, ok Callie, don’t say anymore,” Benedict was grateful that his daughter spoke up for him, but he still felt indebted to the Langleys in his heart, that he had brought Yelena down with his one drunken mistake. so he didn’t want to go too far either.
“No, I’m going to continue.” Calista disregarded Benedict’s words and walked over to Yelena. There was an intensely cold air around her, and Yelena’s anger dissipated and turned into fear.
