Chapter 157 

Serena was terrified by Aurora’s fierce gaze. She stumbled 

backward and fell onto the edge of the bed, tears streaming down her face. 

“Mom, she hit me!” she cried. 

Seeing her beloved daughter being struck, Rebecca could barely contain her anger. “Barrett, you need to keep your wife in check!” 

Barrett stood before Aurora, his face drawn with fatigue and inner turmoil. “How could you hit her? She spoke out of turn, but you could have reprimanded her instead.” 

Aurora’s expression was a mix of disappointment and bitterness. ” So what if I hit her? She’s been spreading lies about me! Why aren’t you criticizing her?” 

“I wasn’t the one who said those things! It’s what everyone else is saying! If you have the guts, go deal with them!” Serena sobbed, her eyes burning with resentment. “You’re too scared to confront 

outsiders, so you’re just taking your frustration out on me! Do you think you’re so great for doing that?” 

Aurora’s voice was sharp and unyielding. 

“What others say is their business, not mine. But what about you? I’m your sister–in–law! In this house, with your father remaining uninvolved, your eldest brother idle, and our sister–in–law weak, the entire household is in disarray! Your mother is constantly ill, and can’t even afford medicine! And here you are, shouting about 

wanting new jewelry and clothes and blaming me! With my military achievements and official position, do you think it’s your place to criticize me?” 

Aurora’s words offended everyone present.

Without hesitation, Barrett slapped Aurora across the face and roared, “Shut up! 

Aurora held her face in disbelief, staring at Batt. “You hit me!” 

Barrett looked at his own hand, then at the room full of his family members. The weight of the recent criticisms and insults fueled his fury Without hesitation, he struck Aurora again, this time on the other side of her face 

“Get out!” he snarled. 

Aurora was completely enraged. Grabbing a nearby four–legged stool, she hurled it at Barrett’s head. “I’ll fight you!” 

Seeing the stool coming, Barrett instinctively ducked aside. Unfortunately, the stool crashed right on Jonathan’s head instead. 

“Dad!”

Like a furious lion, Barrett glared at Aurora and roared, “Get out! Get out of here right now!” 

Aurora was stunned by her own actions, and she stood there 

helplessly. In her furious haste, she hadn’t meant to injure her father- in–law. Seeing Barrett’s murderous glare, she was both terrified and upset, and fled the scene in panic. 

Rebecca clutched her chest, her face pale. “Go, get your second aunt and tell her to find Carissa!” 

Previously, Rebecca had harbored some reservations about bringing Carissa back, mindful of her pride. But now, she was desperate for Carissa’s return and was willing to pay any price. 

Amidst the chaos, the physician arrived with his medical kit. While the bleeding had been controlled, the wound was significant and Jonathan had lost a lot of blood. Despite several attempts to treat him, he remained unconscious. 

The physician informed Barrett that the situation was severe, and that the blow had possibly affected Jonathan’s brain. The physician suggested that only Sebastian could ensure a complete recovery. The Warrens turned pale at the mention of Sebastian. 

How could they possibly summon Sebastian now? 

Previously, it had taken Amelia kneeling at the entrance of the physician’s office to soften his heart and persuade him to sell them the medicine for Rebecca’s condition. 

However, Sebastian had declared he would not make any more house calls!
