Chapter 770:
Trinity and Dylan were both baffled by Wanda’s sudden agitation.
“Wanda, what’s wrong?” Trinity asked carefully.
Without warning, Wanda’s anger exploded. She stepped forward and hurled the documents in her hands straight at Trinity’s face. “Is the girl in this photo the Lilah you mentioned p>
Trinity was caught off guard but didn’t dare argue. She quickly picked up the documents, scanned through them, and nodded. “Yes, that’s her. Why?” Before she could say another word, Wanda slapped her hard across the face.
Wanda was so angry that she didn’t care that Trinity had once been covered in filth. Her slap landed with such force that Trinity’s cheek turned red and swollen in an instant.
“Ah!” Trinity cried out in pain.
Already weak, she remained dizzy and disoriented for several moments before pulling herself together. She looked at Wanda with teary eyes and asked, “Wanda, why did you hit me p>
Wanda’s fury hadn’t cooled. One slap wasn’t enough. She hit Trinity again. And again. Even after three slaps, she didn’t stop.
Wanda kept going, striking Trinity over a dozen times.
Trinity’s cheeks puffed up, blood trailing from the corner of her lips. Wanda’s hand showed no mercy, and Trinity couldn’t even get a word in between the blows.
Dylan stood frozen, stunned. Hadn’t Trinity always bragged that her sister adored her? She’d often boasted that Wanda was the Campbell family’s adopted daughter. Yet, here she was, being beaten.
Dylan had been Trinity’s loyal sidekick for a long time. He couldn’t just watch her get beaten to a pulp. “Miss Campbell, please calm down!” he said, rushing to pull Wanda back. “She’s too weak for this. Please show some mercy p>

“Don’t you dare touch me with those filthy hands!” Wanda snapped, shoving him off without hesitation. “Who do you think you are p>
To Wanda, Dylan was beneath her. Even the lightest touch from someone like him was an insult.
Dylan quickly backed off. “I’m sorry, Miss Campbell p>
Wanda gave him a cold glare and then turned back to the already battered Trinity.
“Wanda… Why are you doing this?” Trinity choked out, her voice cracking.
Wanda gritted her teeth. “Don’t think that just because you’re my sister, I’ll let everything slide. If you ever use my name to stir up trouble again, I’ll make you regret it p>
Though dazed and aching, Trinity slowly began to understand. Could it be that Lilah had some powerful backing—so powerful that even Wanda feared her? It had to be. Wanda wasn’t exactly the moral type. She bullied others without a second thought. There had to be something about Lilah.
“Wanda, who is Lilah really?” Trinity asked carefully.
“I don’t know. But she’s not ordinary. Don’t cross her again. Tiptoe around her,” Wanda snapped.
Dylan glanced at Wanda, a thoughtful look in his eyes. Lilah must hail from an influential family, explaining Wanda’s caution. Good thing that bucket of feces hadn’t landed on Lilah. If it had, getting expelled from Ublento Medical University would’ve been the least of his problems. He could’ve ended up six feet under.
Initially, Dylan had felt guilty towards Trinity because the waste was dumped on the wrong person. Now, he was immensely relieved—he’d dodged a bullet.
