CHAPTER 56: CHAPTER 56: WASN’T THAT PAINFUL ENOUGH JUST NOW? (2)

Raina North fiddled with the needle, "Grandpa, I’ve long stopped caring."

"Then can you forgive them?"

"Grandpa, hurry and rest. Once your health is restored, you still have to help me take care of Bobby." Raina North pulled the quilt over Old Master North, "I’m going to check on Bobby, he’s shy around strangers."

Old Master North had countless things he wanted to say, but seeing the smile on Raina North’s face, he couldn’t utter a single word. In the end, there was only a long sigh.

...

"Raina North!"

After leaving the old man’s room, Raina North was about to find Bobby when she heard a voice from behind.

She had just turned around when a sound of a slapping hand swooshed towards her.

Raina North raised her arm, fiercely gripping Evelyn Xavier’s wrist, "What are you trying to do?"

"It hurts!" Evelyn Xavier cried out in pain, struggling desperately: "Let go! Let go of me!"

Raina North flicked her wrist, throwing Evelyn Xavier off, warning coldly: "Stay away from me!"

Evelyn Xavier rubbed her wrist, shouted loudly: "Raina North, do you really think fooling Grandpa will let you get Northwind’s shares? I’m telling you it’s impossible. If you know what’s good for you, hand over the shares willingly, or else, don’t blame me for being rude!"

"Rude? How can you be rude? With that mouth of yours?" Raina North sneered, pulling out a plain white handkerchief to carefully wipe her fingertips, as if she had touched something disgusting and dirty.

Evelyn Xavier was furious, "Raina North, you should die!" She raised her other hand without hesitation to slap Raina North.

"Wasn’t the pain enough just now?!"

Raina North’s voice wasn’t loud, but with her speaking, an imposing pressure erupted from her.

Evelyn Xavier’s movements suddenly froze, her mind went blank at that moment.

"Sister, don’t be angry, Evelyn is only worried about you. She’s just impulsive and doesn’t know how to talk."

Claire North came over, holding Beau Shelby’s arm.

Raina North glanced over coolly, the indifference in her eyes made Claire North’s heart tremble, a trace of fear unexpectedly surged within.

"Sister, don’t be like this, Evelyn truly means well. She thinks you’re young and should enjoy life more. Being the largest shareholder of Northwind is too much for you, and you’ve just gotten married. We all hope you can enjoy life well."

Raina North was genuinely curious, how Claire North could say something so ridiculous with such justified confidence!

Raina North coldly laughed: "Well, I really must thank you. But that’s my business, it has nothing to do with you!"

Claire North bit her lower lip: "Sister, can’t you stop being like this? I know you’re acting this way because of Beau, but Beau and I are genuinely in love, we very much hope for your blessing..."

Raina North’s eyes were full of impatience.

"Claire, why are you being so polite to her? Raina North is intentionally opposing you!" Evelyn Xavier was back to herself, angrily shouted: "Raina North, what are you thinking? Why do you always want to take Claire’s things? Everyone knows Claire is the only rightful daughter of the North Family’s young lady. You’ve already taken eighteen years of her life, and now you want to seize her shares. What a shameless person you are!"

Evelyn’s words, full of righteous indignation, successfully inflamed Raina North’s temper.

She laughed in anger: "Evelyn, are you brain dead? I’m taking her shares? Are you sure those shares are hers? Have you forgotten that Grandpa is still alive and well!"
