I shook my head and said, “Liora, this is a society ruled by law now. Your actions have already seriously violated the law. I advise you to turn back while you still can.”
“Go to hell!”
Liora slapped me in the face.
As long as she made the first move, I could act in self–defense.
I quickly took out the scissors from my pocket and stabbed fiercely into Liora’s arm.
She let out a pig–like scream.
We fought together, and at that moment, it was about who could be more daring.
I exploded with hatred towards Liora, unleashing a brute force continuing to stab her fiercely.
She cursed in pain, “Bastard! Go die! Just die for me!”
I retorted, “Damn you!”
The other people on the car hurriedly pulled us apart, while the men grabbed my hand and took away the scissors.
Liora was covered in blood, she screamed madly, “Kill her for me! Give her to the beggars to gang rape!”
Struggling, my phone fell out.

Jayden picked it up and was shocked: “Damn! She called the police!”
Chapter 12
Liora was speechless, as if she had been hit by a petrifying spell.
I gave a cold smile.
“The police will soon locate us based on the positioning. How many years do you think we will be sentenced to?”
Jayden was so scared that he threw his phone out of the window, and the criminals were also at a loss.
Liora stubbornly said, “What am I afraid of her for! Kill her and then we’ll talk!”
I could see that her followers were a motley crew, only interested in money, not loyal at all.
I quickly came up with a plan and provoked Jayden, saying, “The police heard all of my conversation with Liora just now. She is the mastermind and will get the heaviest sentence! If you release me now, I will plead for leniency on your behalf. At most, it will be a light sentence. If you really harm me, it will be a minimum of ten years. You won’t have a chance to spend the money you earned!”
After I finished my persuasive speech, Jayden and the others clearly showed a look of hesitation.
Liora roared angrily, “Shut up! You despicable person! You don’t know anything!”

I shouted back at her louder, “You illiterate in law! Are you trying to drag everyone down with you? If you do this, the Merrick family will not let you off the hook!”
Jayden interrupted, “What about the Merrick family?”

I had to use Raymond’s name to intimidate him.
“It’s the Merrick Group! This woman deceived the CEO of the Merrick family, Raymond. Raymond was so angry that he kicked her out, and she deliberately sought revenge on me! I gave birth to two children for Raymond. If you dare to harm me, be prepared to spend the rest of your life in prison!”
Jayden asked Liora, “Is what she said true?”
Liora stammered nervously, “You, you all, don’t, don’t listen to her nonsense!”
The driver who was driving interrupted, “Boss! Let this woman go! We can’t afford to offend the Merrick family!”
The rest of the gangsters also chimed in with their own opinions.
“This person was acting like a madman.”
“She might have a mental illness and not be afraid of going to jail.
”
“I thought she was just trying to scare me, but she really wanted to kill
me…”
Liora exclaimed hysterically, “You took my money! How dare you betray
me?”
イ
I pursued aggressively, saying, “How much did she give you? I’ll offer double! Just let me go!”
Jayden was annoyed and decisively said, “Get rid of both of them! Let them kill each other!”
The driver pulled the car over, the thugs opened the door and kicked Liora and me out of the car.

As soon as I got off the car, I headed straight for the crowded area, with Liora frantically chasing after me from behind.
In the end, she collapsed and could not get up due to excessive bleeding and physical exhaustion.
Passersby helped make an emergency call.
One hour later –
Raymond and the police both arrived at the hospital.
Raymond nervously held onto my shoulder.
“How were you injured?”
There were bruises of all sizes on my body, but compared to Liora, they were nothing.
I shook my head and said, “I have nothing to do…”
The police came over to take a statement, and I recounted the whole incident in detail.
Raymond said grimly, “I want Liora to spend the rest of her life in prison.”
I asked anxiously, “Aren’t you afraid of being pursued by the Corbin family?”
Raymond held my hand.
“The Corbin family had a bunch of bad debts, previously I smoothed things over for them because of Liora’s face, now I have to settle accounts with them all at once!”
I remembered Sophia saying that Raymond always had a filter on Liora,

so I couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Why do you always defend Liora? Do you actually have feelings for her?”
I couldn’t help feeling a little sour in the end.
Raymond was stunned for a moment, then immediately protested.
“I have never liked her! I have always liked you!”
I looked at him suspiciously.
“How is that possible? You didn’t even know who I was before.”
Raymond told me the story in a slow and detailed manner.
Originally, when I first met him over a decade ago, he fell in love with me at first sight.
According to him, he felt like I had the appearance of a rabbit, but inside lived a wolf.
The contrast was too strong, making it unforgettable for him.
But as time passed, my image in his memory also gradually became blurred.
It wasn’t until the Corbin family was about to marry the Merrick family that Raymond saw Liora, who bore a resemblance to me, and immediately agreed to the marriage.
When the two of them were getting married, I quietly hid among the bridesmaids, and he didn’t notice me either.
He regretted, “On the night of our wedding, I always felt something was off, but Liora drugged me and I couldn’t figure it out. When I came back from my business trip and asked her about the bracelet I gave her, she was evasive… It wasn’t until I saw you that I suddenly realized! I had been

mistaking her for you all along! I had the butler check the surveillance footage, but it was difficult to recover the footage from five years ago. After a lot of effort, it was finally confirmed that it was you who was with me that night…”
I was filled with mixed emotions. Is this the belated justice?
Raymond looked at me sincerely and said, “I have always hoped that you could be honest with me, but you have too many concerns and never trust me. Now that the truth is out, can you live a good life with me?”
This sounds like a proposal.
I muttered, “Forget it… Mrs. Merrick is not easy to deal with. It’s fine for the child to have my last name now.”
“Heartless guy, don’t you understand my feelings for you at all?”
After Raymond finished complaining, he angrily kissed me on the lips.
Side Story
In order to give the children a complete family, I eventually married Raymond.
After the child went to school, I was bored. He funded me to start a food brand, which allowed me to show my skills.
Over at the Corbin family, under Raymond’s leadership, my father was kicked out of the board for making a mistake, and ever since Liora was sent to prison, my father has completely fallen out with Zoey.
After the divorce, Zoey was left with nothing and died in a car accident.
Later, my father wanted to reconcile with my mother, but he was rejected. Shortly after, he suffered a stroke and became paralyzed, losing control of his bladder and bowels. He spent his final days lonely and isolated in a
