Chapter 2052 A Hundred Ways

Alook of shock crossed Winnie's face when she rushed downstairs and saw the large crowd. She demanded loudly, “What doyou think you're doing? I've called the cops, so you'd better hurry up and leave!”

“Winnie, do you think you have the right to call the cops?" The bodyguards moved aside, making way for Roxanne to walkforward.

Winnie's expression fell instantly, and her eyes widened in panic when she spotted Roxanne and Lucian.“What are you trying to do, Roxanne?” she asked guiltily, lowering her head to check her son's condition.Although she did not see any blood, Yosef was grimacing in pain and drenched in a cold sweat.

Winnie dared not move closer to him, nor did she dare to meet Roxanne’s gaze.

“Winnie Chardon, you're truly shameless and ruthless! You tore apart my family. Even after becoming a disgusting homewrecker,you dared to drive my mother out! Then, you brought your children and ganged up with them to mistreat me. However, all that ismerely the tip of the iceberg. | can't believe you went as far as to plot my mother's death! How did you get to be so black-hearted?”

As Roxanne slowly walked up to Winnie, she could no longer suppress her desire for revenge. For someone like her, slappingher a few times would be going too easy on her.

That thought made her abandon that plan. Then, moving so deftly that nobody noticed anything, a silver needle suddenlyappeared in her hand.

Roxanne struck quickly, aiming the needle directly at a nerve in Winnie's arm and causing immense pain. As she pushed it indeep, the latter cried out in agony. “Ahhh!”

It hurt so badly that Winnie immediately dropped her arm to her side. Her right hand felt as though it was broken. No matter howhard she tried, she could not exert any strength. The piercing pain also started making her head throb.

Another silver needle appeared in Roxanne's hand right after she inserted the first. This time, she targeted Winnie's left hand.

In a matter of seconds, Winnie let out another ear-piercing scream, unable to speak. Her arms hung straight down awkwardly,and she looked terrified.

To Roxanne, however, the horror in Winnie's eyes was nothing compared to what she had felt previously. Back then, she hadlived in fear every day, afraid that Winnie would drag her off somewhere with Yosef and Yuliana, then beat her to death in anapparent accident.

Meanwhile, Lucian and the bodyguards were stunned by the pain she had inflicted with just two needles.

It had crossed Lucian's mind that while his wife's medical skills could treat illnesses, they could also harm others. However, hehad not expected such shocking effects.

Winnie was in so much pain that her body shook like a leaf. She kept retreating, but Roxanne stabbed a third needle into herright knee before she could dodge.

That made Winnie fell forward onto her knees with a thud. Since she could not use her arms to brace herself, her whole bodyslammed straight onto the courtyard's stone floor. If not for the layer of snow covering the ground, she would have smashed herhead and created a bloody mess.

“Would you like me to continue, Winnie? | have more than a hundred ways, at the very least, to seek revenge on you and makeyour life a living hell,” Roxanne uttered, her voice cold and hard.

In the past, she had perhaps thought that everything that had happened to her family was, to some extent, due to the emotionalconflicts between her parents and Winnie. She had blamed Grant for his despicable behavior and loathed Winnie for beingdevoid of moral conscience. But now, this is revenge for killing my mother! At this moment, how am | supposed to maintain thesense of compassion a doctor should have and remain calm?

Fortunately, Lucian sensed something amiss with her emotional state and rushed to her side. He placed both hands on hershoulders and drew her gently into his arms.

“Calm down, Darling. Let's stick to our plan.” His voice soothed her agitation. Then, he gently rested her right hand on her belly.

That seemed to jolt her to her senses, and she ran her hand lightly over her belly. Thinking about how she was carrying twoprecious lives inside her made her feel slightly calmer. Nonetheless, her gaze was still frosty as she stared at Winnie lyingmotionless on the ground.

“Roxanne... | never did anything... Don't talk nonsense, | - It was Grant... He slandered me,” Winnie eked out haltingly.

Neither Roxanne nor Lucian was surprised to hearthat. After all, murder was a serious crime, and no one would admit to itreadily.
