The Cat Is Out of the  Bag i  "Do you think Grace had an easy time raising you?" I continued, “Your mother only gave birth to you and caused havoc to the Murphy family.


    But you''ve teamed up with your  mother to bully Grace? Do you think you would be here today if Grace weren’t so kind?"  “Chloe, spare us your nonsense! Our family matters are none of your business!”  I pressed on. “When you can’t sleep at night, reflect on your past. How many times have you been on the brink of life and death? Has Grace ever given up on you?  "She took you to the hospital tirelessly,


    though she couldn’t even buy clothes for herself. Even I have spent time and money caring for you countless times.


    And I was an outsider who only joined the Murphy familyter. Do you have an ounce of conscience regarding Grace?”  Others in the office joined in, criticizing her. After all, most of the people in this building were familiar with her. Mnie had lost all moral integrity.


    “Chloe, don’t pretend to be righteous.


    You''re no saint, either. You''re a vile person, and you''ll face retribution.


    Your daughter might have escaped this time, but be careful. There might be a next time!”  I was taken aback. While staring at her intensely, I inched closer. “Mnie,

    “How dare you touch Ava?”  I didn’t know where the strength came from, but I squeezed her neck harder, mming her against the door of my office.


    “Speak up! What have you done? Who gave you the right to touch my daughter?” I roared, “You bitch! I gave you what you wanted. Your man, your home, and you still dare to harm my daughter? Mnie, today I''ll show you what death is...” @


    Many people around us were aware of Ava’s kidnapping. Now, they were furious, as well. — “She’s evil. How dare she harm a child?"  “So, she’s the one who did it. Call the police!”  “This is beyond disgraceful —it’s downright inhuman!”  “She’s asking for a beating. She’s capable of anything...”  My hand acted on its own, exerting even more force. Mnie grabbed my hands, trying to pry them off, but my eyes were already zing with rage.


    “Mnie... I risked my life to save your son, and yet you dared to target my


    daughter. You''re an animal.”  Watching Mnie''s face turn purple, my fury continued to burn. I had no intention of letting go. I just wanted her gone.

    Carol rushed forward and grabbed me.


    She wrestled with my hands, “Chlo, let go... Chlo...”
