Reborn From Ashes novel Chapter 206

"You're here to cause trouble?" Hayden asked.

"Shouldn't we? How dare you bully Anna, making her cry like that! Who could watch and not feel heartbroken? If you don't apologize, I'll make you pay for it!"

Lily's face darkened, her anger barely contained as she glared at him. The cruelty in her eyes grew more intense.

"We're from the same family. Why must you act so mercilessly? Hayden, why treat Anna like this? She's a young lady! When you hit her, didn't you think that the blood running in her veins was the same as yours?"

Charlotte's face was filled with disappointment as she looked at him, shaking her head repeatedly, showing her helplessness and sadness.

Even Julia frowned, staring at Hayden coldly.

Everyone had already decided that his actions were inexcusable and infuriating.

"I never expected you Sterlings are all like this. Your method of distorting the truth and framing others is almost as good as Morgan's!" Hayden sneered coldly.

The worst thing he had done to Anna was push her, but it had become an unforgivable crime in their eyes.

This could only mean one thing—Anna had lied to her family.

"How ridiculous! Do you even consider yourself a man? Do you think you can forget what you did and drag Morgan into this? You hit her, so admit it. Don't act like you're innocent!" Lily shouted angrily, pointing at him, her arrogance unbearable.

She had cried earlier because of her bad mood, but now, seeing Lily's temper, she had calmed down.

She realized that her actions weren't right and that things would only worsen if they kept going down this path. Her relationship with Hayden would only become more strained.

"What do you know? Do you think you look fine? I'm telling you, the tears of a Sterling woman aren't cheap! If Hayden made you cry, he'll have to pay for it!" Lily said seriously.

"Hayden, just apologize, and I'll convince her to leave." Julia sighed and stepped in to try and mediate. She, too, didn't want this to get any worse.

"Apologize? Why should I apologize? Just because she came to trouble me and cried when I rejected her?"
