In an instant, both sides of Raegan’s face were red and swollen.
“How dare you ignore my grandma’s question! Sure enough, you are a humble country bumpkin. You have no manners at all.”
It was Tessa who spoke. She had a sinister smile on her face while blowing her hand complacently. She was the one who slapped Raegan.
Anger immediately filled Raegan’s eyes. She stood up, wanting to return the favor.
But before she could do anything, the maid behind her suddenly lifted one foot to trip her.
Raegan was unprepared, so she pounced forward. Fortunately, she didn’t fall to the floor.
Then something hit the floor with a clatter.
It turned out that an exquisite porcelain vase on the bench fell to the floor and shattered into pieces.
“Oh, my God!” Tessa screamed in shock. She pointed at Raegan and scolded, “You bitch! How dare you break my grandma’s favorite vase!”
Raegan frowned.

“Why are you blaming me? It’s not my fault. It was an accident.”
Tessa sneered, “Not your fault? We saw it, and we can attest to it.
Do you still deny it?”
Raegan straightened her back, pointed at the maid beside her, and said calmly, “If she didn’t trip me, I wouldn’t fall and knock off the vase. As I have said, it was an accident.”

She had a hunch that Tessa had come prepared. So she must stay calm now. She couldn’t get herself into trouble.
Of course, the maid would deny it. She pointed at Raegan and pretended to be surprised.
“Hey, Miss! Please don’t frame me! I don’t even know you. I saw it with my own eyes. You wanted to attack Miss Lloyd just now, and you tripped over yourself.”
“Yes, that’s right. I saw it, too,” echoed another maid.
Tessa sneered, “Raegan, you are really something. How dare you lie with so many people watching!” She then turned to the maids and ordered, “Restrain her and teach her a lesson until she admits it.”
As soon as she said this, the two maids stepped forward to hold Raegan.
Raegan didn’t know if she was only imagining things. But she always felt that Tessa had been staring at her belly while she spoke.
Did Tessa know she was pregnant? But how?
She was confused. But unfortunately, she didn’t have time to think about it now. Her current predicament was her utmost concern.
“Don’t touch me!” Raegan screamed when she felt the maid’s grip.
