Chapter 757
“Don’t use a father’s love as your pathetic excuse.” Silas stared down at her, a cold sneer on his face. “Did you really think I didn’t know? The vast majority of the money you embezzled went straight into your biological mother’s pockets p>
Anna’s hysterical screaming abruptly stopped.
She looked at Silas in pure disbelief.
“I made it very clear to you from the beginning. Your mother manipulated me into having you. If my parents hadn’t been soft-hearted and insisted on keeping you, do you really think you’d still be breathing p>
“And you—you’re a fool. Your mother only ever wanted to use you as a bargaining chip for my money. She never loved me, and she never cared about you beyond what you could extract from this family p>
“I gave you the best life possible, the absolute finest education. My parents gave you the affection you constantly demanded. And yet… your loyalty still belonged to that parasite of a mother p>
Silas’s voice was frigid. “You are exactly like her. Selfish, greedy, and rotten to the core. You’re an ungrateful parasite p>
The ugly truth had been violently laid bare.
Her final excuse had been reduced to a pathetic joke.
Faint sirens began to wail in the distance.
Hearing the sound, Anna began to tremble violently.
She couldn’t go to prison!
She was the heiress of the Vinton family! She had a brilliant future ahead of her! She couldn’t spend the rest of her life rotting in a cell!
It was all Serena’s fault!
It was all that bitch’s fault!
If it weren’t for Serena, she would still be sitting on her throne as the untouchable Vinton heiress.
Anna’s eyes locked onto a pair of surgical scissors resting on a nearby medical cart.
The last thread of her sanity snapped.
She lunged forward, snatching the scissors, and charged straight at Serena. “This is all your fault! If I’m going to prison, you’re coming with me p>
Her face twisted into a demonic mask as she viciously thrust the blades toward Serena.
It all happened in the blink of an eye.
No one could have predicted Anna would be unhinged enough to commit murder in front of a dozen witnesses.
“Serena, watch out p>
Silas and Douglas moved at the exact same time, both sprinting toward Serena.
The surrounding medical elites gasped in terror, crying out her name in a panic. However, Serena remained perfectly still. She didn’t even blink.
A faint, mocking smile curled her red lips.
The surgical scissors plunged toward her face, the sheer force of the thrust stirring the hair by her cheeks.
But in the next second.
A tall, elegant figure stepped gracefully in front of her. A long, powerful leg lashed out in a devastating kick.
*Crash p>
A heavy thud echoed through the hall, accompanied by Anna’s agonizing shriek.
Anna was sent flying backward. She slammed violently into the wall before crumpling to the floor.
She violently coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Lying paralyzed on the ground, it was obvious that several of her ribs had been shattered on impact.
The scissors clattered onto the tiles. Within seconds, security guards rushed in and pinned her down.
Nicholas Blackwood stood shielding Serena, his striking eyes swirling with a lethal, icy fury. “You have a death wish p>
The police arrived moments later. They swiftly cuffed Anna and dragged her away.
Silas watched as she was hauled
out. When
she shot him a desperate,
pleading look, bis face remained a mask of stony indifference

“Douglas, make the necessary arrangements. The evidence is solid. No bail, and absolutely no reduced sentences p>
“She will spend the rest of her natural life in a cell. She is never stepping foot outside again p>
Douglas raised an eyebrow, a
teasing smile playing on his lips. “Silas, she’s your flesh and blood Are you sure you can be that ruthless p>
“Only a worthy member of the Vinton family deserves to be my daughter,” Silas scoffed keeping a parasite like her around would only bring disgrace to our name p>
