"Don't come any closer..."
Amelia Baldwin took two steps back, her lips trembling uncontrollably. For a moment, she thought she was seeing a hallucination.
How could Thalia Summers possibly be okay?
"Dad... I'm back." Thalia Summers walked straight to Old Master Baldwin's side, embraced Monica, "In Switzerland, I was kidnapped, fortunately, I have a good son-in-law. He rescued me like a bolt from the blue, hence I am safe and sound now."
All present remained silent, watching this drama unfold.
After Thalia released Monica, she walked directly to Amelia and without warning, slapped her: "I've been kind to you all these years, but you are ungrateful and repay kindness with enmity. Amelia, if it weren't for the child in your womb, a slap would not be all I gave you."
Knocked off balance by the force, Amelia knelt on the ground, her eyes wide in shock, and unfocused.
