Chapter 247 Attack from Anne
Lydia’s face was scratched, and as tears ran down her cheeks, the pain caused her brows to furrow deeply, creating a pitiful
appearance.

But she wasn’t pretending. It genuinely hurt. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have fainted immediately after falling due to the pain.
Dalton’s heart softened.
He didn’t know what had happened, and questioning Lydia so rashly felt unfair to her.
So, when he heard that Meryl had woken up, they immediately. came over from the next room.
On one hand, they wanted to clarify the details. On the other hand, Dalton was also very concerned about Meryl.
However, Chandler had been guarding Meryl’s room, preventing them from seeing her.
When Anne saw Dalton and Lydia, she immediately tried to drive them away.
“Can’t you understand? Get out of here right now.”
Lydia bit her lip. “Anne, you and Meryl are friends, but I am her sister. I’m worried about her, too. Why are you trying to kick me

out?”
Lydia’s feigned sympathy made Anne angrier.

She thought, “I’m a woman too, so how could I not know what kind of person Lydia is?”
Anne glared at her. “Meryl’s injuries are more severe than yours, and she woke up later than you. Do you still dare to say she pushed you down? Are you really worried about her? Lydia, don’t you feel ashamed for lying like this?”
Lydia bit her lip and began to cry pitifully.
At that moment, Malcolm spoke up. “What exactly happened last night? Meryl, did you push Lydia?”
Everyone already knew Lydia’s version of the story.
Lydia insisted that there was an argument between them in the stairwell, and in a fit of anger, Meryl pushed her down.
Lydia claimed the reason for the argument was about the property transfer.
Meryl had obtained the villa and had forced Lydia to return the stock dividends she had received over the years. Lydia refused, and thus, out of anger, Meryl pushed her down.
Anne didn’t believe a word of it.
Before Meryl could say anything, Anne interrupted Malcolm.

“Mr. Stone, Meryl has just woken up and is weak. As her father, shouldn’t you be concerned about her health first? But you
started by questioning her.
“And it seems you’ve already concluded that Meryl pushed. Lydia, haven’t you? But why should Meryl defend herself? Even in court, isn’t it all about who asserts and who provides evidence?”
Anne looked at Lydia. “She claims Meryl pushed her, but does she have any evidence to back that up?”
Malcolm was taken aback. Being lectured by a young person made him feel somewhat embarrassed.
However, Anne’s points were quite reasonable, so he had no
retort.
Bianca nudged Malcolm with her elbow, trying to diffuse the situation. “Meryl, how do you feel? Are you still feeling unwell?”
Anne added, “Mrs. Stone, Meryl is your biological child. She has been awake for a while, and you’re only asking her how she feels now? Where have you been?”
Bianca thought, “Anne is so fired up today, attacking everyone indiscriminately. She makes valid points, so I might as well keep quiet.”
Anne’s specialization was dance.

When she was a teenager preparing to apply to a dance academy, her family and friends all believed in her because of her solid foundation and talent.
During that time, everyone would say to her, “Anne, with your talent, you can easily get accepted. It’s a gift from heaven.”
“Exactly. You’re talented and hardworking. What are we losers supposed to do?”
But in reality, Anne knew better than anyone that she had no such talent. She simply put in more effort than others.
Among all these people, only Meryl treated her differently.
