Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“You won’t even get a chance with the man I reject!”

Harmony heard every word clearly and her emotions had practically crumbled as she let out a scream, “AHHHH—”

Her future was supposed to be a bright one. She wanted to wear a wedding dress and walk down the aisle with Timothy! That dream had completely shattered before her eyes.

“Samantha, you b*tch!” Harmony roared. She reached out and wanted to choke Samantha.

Since Samantha had ruined her life, she would make sure that Samantha would not have a good life either!

However, before her hands could reach Samantha, Rochelle had gotten up from beside her and gave her a resounding punch.

For a woman, Rochelle’s punch was strong and forceful, rather than weak.

Harmony could not block it at all. The punch sent her staggering back and she fell miserably to the ground because she could not stabilize herself.

Her entire face winced in pain. A sharp pain could be felt in her teeth and she subconsciously touched the corner of her lips. She could feel her blood dripping out and she spat out a bloody tooth.

.

Rochelle’s lips twitched in disdain.

Jonathan had provided her with daily training material. If she could give Jonathan a bruise, then it was almost certain that she could deal a big blow to Harmony.

She had wanted to punch Harmony for a long time already, and it was the perfect occasion to fulfill that urge since Harmony had given her a chance to do so!

Harmony was stunned for a moment but the pain and anger brought her back to her senses. “You... you hit me! I’m going to sue you! I’m going to sue the both of you!”

Blood continued to leak out of her mouth.

At that point, two police officers walked up to Harmony and she looked at them as if she had seen her savior. Since she could not get up, she merely sat on the ground while grabbing a policeman’s leg and crying in pain. “Officer! I’d like to make a police report! These two women, Samantha Larsson and Rochelle Tyrell, beat me to a pulp! Arrest them! The other customers can bear witness to their acts!”

The policeman gazed down at her and said, “May I ask if you’re Ms. Johnson?”

Harmony nodded repeatedly. “Yes! That’s me! I’m Ms. Johnson!”

“In that case, you were the one who drove over the speed limit, ran the red light, made illegal U-turns, merged recklessly, and caused a couple of traffic accidents. These occurred at the Pinger highway intersection, Bigelow Road, and Wattling Street’s red light.”

“What?” Harmony’s mind turned blank.

The policeman took out his badge and showed it to her. “I’m part of the traffic police. You’re involved in multiple traffic violations and you need to come with us!”

“...But I’m the victim! I’ve been assaulted by them! Don’t you care about that?” Harmony began to make an unreasonable scene.

“You can make a police report, but for now, you have to come with us!”

The traffic police pulled Harmony up forcefully and held her on either side as they dragged her out.

Rochelle looked at the scene and immediately covered her hands over her stomach as she burst into laughter.

Samantha smirked too. That was her trump card, which she had planned perfectly.

She deserved to get justice for herself before she left, and she was going to make sure she got justice for every single thing!

That way, she could let go of everything there and leave without worrying.

Harmony could not break free so she could only scream and curse, “I’ll make you suffer, Samantha! Mark my words!”

It was only after she was dragged far away that her voice was no longer heard.

Rochelle laughed until her tears came out and it took her a lot of effort to stop laughing. She wiped the corner of her eyes and said to Samantha, “I’m gonna have to bow down in awe of you, Sammy.”

Facing the sadness that stemmed from Timothy’s betrayal, it truly was an uphill task to not only remain strong but to even plan everything to seek justice for herself.

Her courage and charisma had convinced Rochelle that Samantha would live a better life in the future.

Samantha did not say anything and only smiled in return.

The weak could be bullied, and those who did not fight back would only be beaten.

She would not take the initiative to cause trouble, but if trouble came to her, she would not back down in fear.

Samantha looked at the time and said, “It’s almost time for me to board the plane.”

There was reluctance in their expression and Rochelle immediately opened her arms to give Samantha a tight hug. “Babe, you and your baby must have a safe journey. Take care over there, and wait for me to come and find you, and...”

She droned on and on like a mother.

Samantha did not interrupt her and listened quietly before answering, “I’ll be fine. I promise you!”

She checked in, boarded the plane, and took to the skies.

Samantha looked at the clouds outside the window and suddenly remembered when she was forced to leave two years ago.

She left in despair back then, crying all the time, feeling helpless, and believing herself to be an unworthy coward. All she could think of was why Timothy did not like her.

She left two years ago, but still did not find her place when she returned two years later.

Her mood, however, was completely different then than it was now.

Although she was a little sad, she was not leaving the country alone because a baby was keeping her company.

Samantha unconsciously touched her lower abdomen.

Feelings were a very strange thing. Although the only thing that changed was the addition of the little life that she was carrying, she was not sad at all and actually felt as though she had an endless fighting spirit.

She could not guarantee whether she would be able to overcome her difficulty without the child.

Even if she could, things would still be as good...

Rochelle congratulated her the other day for being reborn.

She felt that Rochelle was right.

She had truly been reborn.

The time had come for her to bid goodbye to everything that had happened there.

…

Harmony was lectured severely for an entire afternoon and locked up for one whole night. She was released the next day, but by then she looked extremely miserable and frail.

Instead of going back to her apartment to clean herself up, she got into the car and went directly to the Barker Group.

When Ronald saw Harmony, she was not even half the shadow of her former self and looked more like a homeless beggar.

He almost did not recognize her.

However, as the stellar assistant that he was, he dutifully said, “Ms. Johnson, Mr. Barker is in a meeting now. Would you like to wash your face and clean up your wounds?”

“No! I want to see him now!” Harmony interrupted him impatiently. “I want to go in right now!”

As she said that, she took advantage of Ronald’s inattention and rushed over to push open the office door. She shouted tearfully, “Tim...”

Timothy was sitting behind a large desk and was in the midst of a video conference. He caught a glimpse of Harmony and his eyes were as sullen as ever.

He said to the person in the video. “Pause the meeting.”

Timothy then looked up at her and asked, “What’s the matter?”

She knew that Tim would put her first regardless of everything else.

Harmony walked up to the desk and said aggrievedly, “Samantha beat me up like this, Tim. I can’t stand it anymore.”

“Remember what you promised me last time? I want you to fulfill it right this instant!”
