NovelXXXChapter 532 Monica deliberately stuck out her foot, and Kali, thrown off balance, stumbled and landed hard on her knees- right in front of Monica.
"Who do you think you are to slander her?" Before Kali could even lift her head, Monica pressed her foot down on Kali's thigh, pinning her in place, then slapped her across the face-hard.
"You're nothing but a stray mutt, kicked out by the Glenwood family. You really think you have the right to talk about her? How dare you bark in front of me." Monica kept slapping, one blow after another, until Kali's face was so swollen and bruised it was almost unrecognizable.
It had already been battered earlier by Citrine, but after Monica's assault, Kali's face was a grotesque mess. Monica glanced down, satisfied, a cruel smile tugging at her lips. "Now that's a better look for you." Wade, who'd been sitting off to the side watching the whole thing without a hint of sympathy, sneered, "Spreading rumors about Citrine? You should count yourself lucky I'm a guy. If I weren't, I'd beat you to a pulp myself." Kali clutched her face, both ears ringing, misery flooding her senses.

They were just as rotten as that bitch Citrine; it was obvious they were all in on it together. Terrified Monica might start hitting her again, Kali scrambled to her feet and tried to escape. "Hey. Cback here." Monica's voice rang out sharply behind her.
Kali froze mid-step.
"I'm warning you if you so much as breathe wrong in Citrine's direction, you'll regret it," Monica said, her tone ice-cold.
Kali shuddered, humiliation burning through her. She forced herself not to break down, then bolted from the room.
She didn't bother staying at the party-she went straight home.
The moment she shut the door behind her, she finally broke, collapsing onto her bed and sobbing into her pillow.
A few minutes later, Jeanette caught up. The front door was still ajar, so she walked right in.
Seeing Kali curled up and crying, Jeanette hesitated, then asked quietly, "So... are we still following through with the plan?" Kali's sobs cut off abruptly. She lifted her swollen, battered face-so bruised it was almost grotesque-and spat out, Of course.
After what she did to me, I have to make her pay." Jeanette looked uneasy. "But... what about Miss Saunders's warning?" Dick had already been cast out by the Glenwood family. Their family had lost all support.

Kali caught Jeanette's worried glance and said, "Don't worry, I'll handle it myself. You won't have to do anything." She paused, then added, "But... this could get your dad involved. Are you sure you won't regret it?"
Jeanette hesitated, then shook her head firmly. "No regrets. He's He's already got more than it on more scandal won't make a difference." Kali said nothing more. She opened her laptop and, using a burner account, uploaded the video to Twitter.
When that was done, she pulled up her phone, snapped a few carefully angled shots of her battered face with a beauty filter, and sent them to Quentin. Kali: "Quentin, look what they did to my face [crying emoji]." Across town, Quentin was out drinking with friends when her message flashed on his screen. His expression darkened instantly.
Quentin: "Kali, tellwho hurt you. I swear to God, I'll make them pay."
Kali: "Quentin, went to the Watkins family's charity gala tonight and accidentally offended Citrine Om Carmichael. You know she's the CEO of CICI Group now. She was furious, and I couldn't do anything to stop her." Kali: "I'm sorry, Quentin... I shouldn't have said so much. Just pretend you never heard any of this, okay? Please don't get on President michael's bad side because of me."
