After throwing those four punches, Lizzie was completely exhausted, the pain became unbearable, her legs went weak, her body swayed, and she was about to collapse.
Lizzie didn’t let go, still holding onto Vanessa’s shirt tightly, raising her hand, wanting to hit, but her body was off balance, so the slap didn’t immediately land.
At that moment, Theron was closest to her, and he instinctively wanted At that moment, Theron was c to help.
But this time, Oswaldo didn’t hesitate, he immediately rushed over and caught Lizzie.
At this point, everyone finally realized.
The male guests present, including Zaire and Theron’s subordinates, wanted to break up the fight, but it was two women who were fighting. It was awkward for the men to intervene.
Theron wanted to stop them from fighting, but he couldn’t touch Lizzie right now, so he had to forcefully pull the still dazed Vanessa away and protect her behind him.
“Lizzie!” Theron looked at Lizzie with his crimson eyes.
Oswaldo immediately stood behind Lizzie and supported her.
Lizzie also reached out and grabbed Oswaldo’s clothes because she didn’t have her crutch.
Her petite body was completely blocked by Oswaldo, only revealing a

Theron watched as the girl he once wanted to protect was being protected by someone else, standing on the opposite side of himself. It felt like his heart was being squeezed and hollowed out, making it almost impossible to breathe!
Vanessa was pulled away and hid behind Theron’s tall figure before she fully came to her senses.
She covered her swollen face from being beaten, looking at Lizzie with a gaze full of resentment and madness.
“Oh my god! You jerk! How dare you hit me!”
Vanessa screamed and grabbed Theron’s clothes, shaking and hitting him hard.
“Theron! Did you see that? She hit me! Quickly grab her! Take her to the police station! Let her go to jail!”
Vanessa cried out, looking crazy, “Just a few words to that girl, and she freaked out like this. There must be something fishy going on between her and that guy! Go catch them! They must be fooling around!”
As everyone listened to her scolding, they couldn’t help but say, “Old lady, have some manners. Even if Lizzie knows that girl, we can’t stand it!”
“Yeah! How could you bear to hurt such a lovely child like that!”
They stood outside, still able to hear Vivian’s intermittent crying in the distance.
Ah, poor kid.

“Ugh! If Lizzie marries over, she’ll be a wicked stepmother too! I was just trying to warn that little girl to watch out for Lizzie, the wicked stepmother! How can that little girl’s mom be a short–lived ghost, died early, giving Lizzie a chance!”
Oswaldo and his wife had a great relationship. After his wife passed away, he preferred to live alone with Vivian and never thought about finding someone else.
Now seeing his wife being repeatedly called a “short–lived ghost” by Vanessa, he, no matter how good–tempered he is, also frowned at this
moment.
He’s just a big man, he can’t just go and hit an old lady.
Lizzie, on the other hand, didn’t care. Even though Vivian couldn’t hear, Vivian’s birth mother wouldn’t let Vanessa talk like that!
She pushed Oswaldo and was about to go fight Vanessa.
Oswaldo was afraid she hurt her leg, so he quickly went to help her.
Vanessa shrank back in fear at Lizzie’s lion–like fierce gaze, quickly hiding behind Theron.
Theron quickly stepped in front of Lizzie, blocking her way.
One pulling, one blocking.
Lizzie didn’t manage to get close enough to beat up Vanessa this time, but her gaze went past Theron and landed on Vanessa’s old face.
She pointed her finger directly at Vanessa.
“Do you know who you just cursed at! Vivian’s mother, in order to protect advanced technology and drawings from abroad, forcibly broke through to return to the country while pregnant, resulting in serious

injuries and premature birth of Vivian, and finally died!”
Lizzie lunged forward with all her strength, so strong that Oswaldo could barely control her.
“Such martyrs, you cursed them to die carly! Are those martyrs who died for the country all ghosts who died early? Without their
premature deaths, how could we have the peaceful world today! You cursed them to die early!”
Others couldn’t help but be moved when they heard this, right? They were able to avoid the war because someone was carrying the burden for them in the distance!
Lizzie, with red eyes, loudly questioned, “You have a son who is a professor, so you think you can do whatever you want! Who gave you the right to curse those martyrs who died for the country and the people!”
Vanessa was caught off guard by her question, covering her face and avoiding eye contact.
