The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 800
Ryan rested his chin on Carrie’s head, whispering each word slowly
into her ear.
“Don’t worry. Those bitter days will never come again. I will cherish you for the rest of my life, Mrs. Hoffman.”
As expected, Justin’s slap had ruptured Shannon’s eardrum. It had even dislodged one of her molars.
How much pent-up resentment and hatred did he have to strike her
with such force?
Bethany hurriedly escorted Shannon to the hospital for treatment. On the way, Shannon cursed loudly while covering her ears.
The more she cursed at Bella and Justin, the angrier she grew, causing her ears and face to throb with pain.
The driver stared in disbelief, stealing frequent glances at the
rearview mirror.
Who would believe that the usually dignified and elegant chairman’s wife would be so vulgar, cursing like a fisherman’s wife,
causing her
facade to crumble?
“What are you looking at?”

Bethany noticed the driver’s prying eyes and warned sternly. “I’m warning you! Keep your eyes on the road and drive the damn
car. You’d best keep your mouth shut! If a word of this leaks out, your
whole family won’t be able to survive in SW
“Yes, yes, Ms. Bethany!” The driver trembled and dared not look again.
“You useless girl! I regret raising you!” With nowhere else to vent her anger, Shannon could only unleash her fury at Bethany.
She jabbed forcefully at Bethany’s head with her finger, causing her body to tilt. How could you just stand there and watch your
own mother get beaten? You stood there and watched Bella, that bitch, bully your
mother! You didn’t do anything!”
Bethany clenched her fists tightly, filled with resentment. “I’ve never been able to compete with Bella. If rashly intervened, I was
afraid I’d make things worse! Why do you keep scolding me, and not Carrie? Look at how much you’ve suffered, and she hasn’t
even appeared once. She’s just been fooling around with Ryan! I really don’t know what he sees in her. He must be blind!”
Shannon didn’t hide her disdain for Bethany. “Shame on you! How do you still have the nerve to compare yourself to your sister?
So what if she doesn’t intervene? She still silently stole Ryan’s heart! Being able to become Ryan’s mother-in-law is great. It’s a
hundred times better than your useless flattery in front of me!”
Shannon used to be skeptical. But now she had to admit that Bethany’s inferior genes doomed her to mediocrity, no matter how
Bethany was raised. The innate lowliness couldn’t be eradicated. Bethany was even inferior to Carrie, the defective daughter she
shared with Gregory!
If Shannon had known this earlier, she would have focused on grooming Carrie instead. She felt that she had wasted her efforts.

At the hospital, Shannon received treatment and was admitted to a VIP ward. She lay on the bed, her cheeks swollen, unable to
sleep due to the pain in her ears. She tossed and turned, alternating between anger and fear.
Shannon was worried that Bella would discover her relationship with Harry and feared that Harry would betray her. But more
than anything, she feared that the truth about Bethany’s biological father being Harry would be exposed. That would spell the
end for them both!
She stayed in the hospital for three days, with Bethany mindlessly
keeping her company.
On the third day, the swelling on her cheeks finally subsided, but Gregory had yet to show up.
During this time, Bethany called him more than once, asking when he would come to visit her mother. However, he was always
indifferent and dismissive, hanging up after a few perfunctory words.
Initially, Bethany thought Shannon would be in tears upon hearing the news. After all, which woman wouldn’t want her husband’s
love and care? After all, being left alone in the hospital by her husband would
drive any woman crazy.
Unexpectedly, Shannon remained calm and composed, without a hint of crying or tantrums. She ate, nursed her injuries, and
appeared to be disturbingly normal.
This left Bethany utterly confused. To the best of her knowledge,
Shannon couldn’t survive without Gregory.
