More snickering erupted from the journalists. Their cruel, merciless teasing and mockery consumed


    L


    like a pitch ck wave of pain.


    “Don’t worry, Mom. I’ll protect you!” Tatiana kept her mother away from the sly gazes of the reporters,


    ring at every one of them.


    Who would ever guess such a shy and demure girl would be so fearless and strong right now?


    “No one will hurt you… no one!”


    “I’m… I’m okay, Taty … I’m…” L murmured weakly, her gaze distant and lost.


    Seeing this, tears fell down Tatiana’s eyes and onto her mother’s hair.


    “What did you just say?” Colene fumed angrily, pointing a finger at the reporter who hadjust spoken.


    She


    was this close to hitting him!


    “Why so angry, Madam Colene? It’s not like this has anything to do with you,” another reporter said


    sarcastically.


    Mandy’s gaze darkened. Her guess was right. These reporters had clearly been sent here to aggravate


    them.


    “Why can’t I be angry? L is my family, so when you insult her, you’re insulting me!” Colene


    eximed.


    How she wished she could snap this man’s ribs one by one while he howled in pain!


    “Family? In front of the cameras, sure. But who knows what actually goes on behind the scenes?” The


    reporter said gleefully.


    “We’ve seen a lot of women like you, madam. Who would ever want to be married to a man with more


    than one wife if they could help it? Women get jealous, after all.”


    “F—” Colene was about to roar out ‘fuck you!’ when Mandy pped a hand over her mouth.


    They were in powerful yet delicate positions, representing the Taylor family whenever they were public.


    That’s why they couldn’t simply do whatever they pleased without considering the impact it would have


    on Winston and their children!


    “They’re not worth it, Colene. Let’s go.” Mandy turned away, dragging Colene along with her into the


    car.


    The first reporter who had taken a jab at them sneered, “I’m sure L, who was once the face of TS


    been brought to light once again, right?”


    All of a sudden, something shed before the reporter’s eyes.


    A wave of gasps spread throughout the crowd.


    No one had seen when she had appeared, but Alyssa was now standing in front of her family,


    protecting


    them.


    The reporter was stunned. How could there be someone with such a beautiful visage in this world?


    In all his years of being a news reporter in the entertainment industry, he had seen countless actresses

    and influencers. But none of them couldpare to Alyssa Taylor.


    Hers was an unrivaled beauty that captured people’s souls.


    He could die happy now that he had gotten to see such a beautiful woman.


    “So you’re the one who’s been insulting L, you bitching, skunk-mouthed asshole?” Alyssa sneered.


    Before the reporter could react, she grabbed him by the cor and pped him harshly across the face.


    Everyone else, including Tatiana, Mandy, and Colene, were stunned.


    “L-Lyse…” Tatiana froze where she was, her admiration for her sister reaching an unbelievable peak.


    “Go get ’em, Lyse!” Colene cried excitedly, pping for Alyssa.


    She was about to follow up with a smack of her own when Mandy pulled her by the back of her dress


    with


    all her might, stopping her.


    “D-did you just … did you just hit me? In public?” The reporter gaped in shock, clutching his stinging


    cheek.
