Jasmine had always been arrogant, thinking that with the Lewis family backing her, she could look down on
everyone.
Before, Autumn had been too young to know how to handle things, but now it was different.
Seeing Jasmine still acting so brazen just because she had support, it was time to teach her a lesson.
Luna froze for a moment at Autumn’s words but quickly regained her composure.
Jasmine, on the other hand, couldn’t sit still.
She jabbed a finger at Autumn, her chest heaving with anger. “Autumn! You’re actually calling the police over something this small? Do you have no common sense at all?
“Reporting such a trivial matter-this is wasting public resources. False reporting can get you detained, don’t you know that p>
Autumn slowly took a bite of the fruit Keith handed her, then said evenly, “So Miss Far does know the law. But tell me, ten years ago, which one of the things you did wasn’t punishable by law?
“Yet here you are, sitting comfortably at the table. I’m simply protecting my own rights-how is that against the law p>
Jasmine choked on her words.
Her anger flared, but all she could do was glare. Autumn was insane, always dragging up what happened ten
years ago.
What a shameless, petty woman.
Hearing Autumn’s words, Ryan was once again stunned.
She had so calmly exposed such a buried secret, and in front of the Lewis family, no less p>
Was she crazy? Wasn’t she afraid Julian would turn his back on her after this?
But when he glanced at Julian, the man only lifted his gaze, cast Autumn a fleeting look, and then expressionlessly continued what he was doing.
Luna, too, remained composed and unruffled. Truly a pair-neither of them was easily shaken.
And then there was Autumn, relentless and pressing forward.
Tsk, tsk. That was the difference-what Luna possessed, Autumn could never learn in her lifetime. 1
The first to break was Hector.
With a cold snort, he said, “You really love meddling in things that aren’t your business. Luna’s a top student focused on her career-how could she possibly settle down so soon?
“But you? You’re a year older than her, nearly three years out of college, and still haven’t accomplished a thing.

“Instead of focusing on work, you spend all your energy chasing after men. Do you really think depending on a man will keep you worry-free p>
Sometimes, Hector truly couldn’t understand Autumn. She lacked ability, yet her temper was enormous.
Where did her arrogance come from? Was it all borrowed from the men around her?
But men were fickle. Once they lost interest, wouldn’t she be left in ruins?
The more he thought about it, the clearer it seemed-Autumn was foolish.
Headstrong, unwilling to listen, constantly making enemies.
One day, she would meet a miserable end.
The Lewis family, as always, clung to Luna. No matter what she did, they found endless excuses for her.
They even liked to belittle Autumn as a way of elevating Luna’s worth, as though Autumn had been born only to serve as Luna’s contrast.
Autumn finally snapped.
She grabbed the glass on the table and hurled it at Hector. “And who exactly are you to me? If you haven’t lived through someone’s pain, don’t preach to them about virtue-understand?
“So what right do you have to judge how I live my life? Just because you’ve got thick enough skin p>
The glass struck Hector squarely, making him grimace in pain. The juice still inside splashed all over him, soaking his clothes.
