Fake Heiress? Watch Me Prove Them Wrong

"I have a question for you," Candace said, looking at Liam. "You're her boyfriend. What do you think I should do to her?"

Candace kept twisting the truth. Her story had holes, but Liam didn't even bother to stop and consider them. He just believed her without question.

Liam stepped on my fingers firmly and said fiercely, "I never thought you could be this evil! Apologize to Candy this instant!"

I struggled and tried to free myself, but he just pressed down even harder.

"Liam Hilton! Our engagement hasn't been called off yet! How could you treat me like this? Aren't you afraid that—ahh!"

Liam had just stomped even harder on my fingers.

"You're a liar and an impostor!" he spat. "You still think that you can marry into the Hilton family? Let me tell you the truth—Candy and I are about to get married. I know that you went through all this trouble so that you could marry me, but it's high time that you stopped being delusional!

"If you apologize to Candy now, I know that she will feel sorry and forgive you immediately. She might even spare your life."

The pain contorted my face. I was furious and full of hatred for him as I snarled, gritting my teeth, "You're the only one who'd think a lying impostor like her was telling the truth! Just you wait! I'll be looking forward to the day you're forced to eat your own words!"

Candace suddenly seemed to take great offence at me calling her a "lying impostor". She immediately flew into a rage and clawed her nails into me while hitting and punching me in the face. She even grabbed Wayne's baton.

"I'll kill you! I'm going to kill you, bitch!"

She didn't even think twice before swinging the baton at me.

I was trapped in place by Liam's foot and couldn't dodge. I just closed my eyes in despair.

However, the expected pain never came. Instead, I heard Liam gasping in shock.

"Uncle Jonah?"

I opened my eyes. I didn't know when, but Jonah had somehow run out from his hospital room and thrown himself in front of me, taking the blow on my behalf.

Jonah's face was deathly pale. However, he gritted his teeth and fought to stay upright as he said, "Don't fall for her words, Liam. She's not the heiress to the Ashford family. Denise also never hired anybody to hurt her.

"But she was the one who did it! She brought two thugs and abducted Denise out of the blue!"

Liam was thoroughly shocked when he saw how bad a state Jonah was in. Yet, before he could return to his senses, Candace suddenly covered her face and began wailing loudly.

"You mean this man is your uncle? Liam! I think we should just call off the wedding. Denise didn't just kidnap me. She even told this man to grope me! If it weren't for my bodyguard arriving in time… I refuse to accept the fact that you have a pervert as your uncle! Unless you cut off all ties with him…"

Liam looked at the tears on Candace's face. At once, all hesitance vanished from his eyes.

He glared angrily at Jonah and said, "Uncle Jonah, how dare you gang up with this bitch to harm Candy? I'm very disappointed in you!"

Liam then knocked Jonah to the ground, grabbed the baton, and marched toward me menacingly.

This was the VIP room on the fourth floor, and that meant that the doctors and nurses hardly ever passed through here.

Every hit Liam delivered to my legs was excruciating.

"I won't stop until I break your leg!" he shouted. "That'll show you all the pain Candy has had to go through!"

I was pinned to the floor and couldn't get up at all.

Just as I was about to give up in despair, I suddenly heard quick footsteps at the door, followed by Dexter's loud shout.

"Stop! What the hell are you doing?"
