Rita was sprawled on the ground in an awkward split–legged position, clutching her swollen face, her eyes glaring at Kaia in utter disbelief.
She snapped, “You… you hit me? You actually dared to hit me? Since I was a child, even my parents never hit me, and you actually dared to hit me?”
Kaia let out a cold scoff. “That’s exactly why you turned out so damn arrogant and spoiled. You really think being some rich heiress means you can just stomp all over everyone else?”
“You even dare to talk down about my parents! Who the hell do you think you are? You trash- talking bitch!” Rita was about to lose it. She shot up from the floor and lunged at Kaia, hands clawing wildly.
“Kaia, watch out!” Penny shouted anxiously.
Kaia’s eyes went cold. She casually flicked out a boxing move and sent Rita flying back.
Wobbling unsteadily in her high heels, Rita staggered backward several steps. Finally, her heel twisted, her legs split apart, and she slipped to the floor.
Her tight–fitting skirt tore wide open, splitting all the way to the top.
Rita hurriedly covered herself with her handbag, utterly humiliated.
“Serves you right.” Penny felt not the slightest sympathy for someone like her.
“Kaia, you even know boxing? I never would have guessed! And you’re so good at it too.” As she spoke, Penny suddenly remembered something.
Kaia only got to know Collin because Samantha wanted to learn boxing from her. But back then, everyone thought Kaia was just showing off, and Samantha was just being played by her. Nobody took it seriously.
That included her as well. But now, it seemed they had all underestimated Kaia.
“Kala, you bitch! You’ll get what’s coming to you. I finally figured it out. It’s that guy who picked you up last night, right? Shameless! Being someone’s mistress!” Rita’s words grew nastier with every
sentence.
Hearing this, Penny also thought of that incident. But she still trusted Kaia’s character.
Penny said. “Kita, if you don’t have proof, don’t spit nonsense here. Calling someone a mistress? Your mont’s the real mistress!
Kita was furning “What did you say?

Penny added, “Do you think denying it changes anything? Everyone knows your mother climbed up by being a mistress back then, forcing your dad’s first wife out. Now that’s a real skill!”
Rita retorted, “You’re talking nonsense! My mom is the original wife! My mom and my dad were childhood sweethearts. It was that shameless tramp who cut in halfway. Kaia’s the real mistress! Otherwise, why do you think her parents kicked her out? It’s because they were afraid she’d embarrass them and drag down the Bennett family’s reputation!”
Kaia, growing tired of the noise, sent a message to Conrad.
Soon, a group of security guards rushed over.
Seeing them, Rita pointed at Kaia and shouted, “It’s her! She started it, she hit me! Hurry up and hrow her out!”
Penny grew worried and was just about to explain when the security guards instead grabbed Rita and started dragging her out.
Rita snapped, “Let go! Let me go! I’m the eldest daughter of the Parsons family, a partner of K&B! Let me go or I’ll make sure you all regret it! Kaia! You bitch! I’ll get my revenge! One day I’ll make you beg me! And that damn shop assistant. I’ll tell my dad and have him complain to your head office. You’ll be finished!”
Penny shook her head in exasperation. “Even now, she can still keep cursing. Doesn’t she feel embarrassed? Kaia, let’s go see what the security guards do with her.”
“You go. I’m not interested in the spectacle,” Kaia said lightly.
“Alright then. I’ll be right back. Wait for me here,” Penny said.
After Penny left, Kaia pulled out her phone and sent Conrad another message.
[The Parsons family damages my company’s image. Terminate cooperation and never work with them again.]
After sending it, she turned toward the store manager, whose face was pale. “Are you alright?”
I’m fine.” The manager sounded a bit aggrieved. Though she came from the countryside, she had her dignity, She worked diligently at her job every day, yet she had been struck by someone,
Let me see. You’re bleeding, and you say you’re fine?” Kaia frowned. “I’ll have someone take you to the hospital. Medical expenses and nutritional supplements will be covered by the company. Also, you did very well today. I’ll speak to Conrad and recommend you for a promotion.”
Hearing this, the store manager momentarily forgot the pain, staring blankly at Kaia.
Just then, Penny returned from outside, phone in hand.

She said, “Kaia, you should have seen how pathetic Rita looked getting thrown out by security! Serves her right! She had it coming. She’s been my arch–enemy for ages, always looking down on me because her company has a higher market value. And now she even has a partnership with K&B. What a cosmic joke!”
“Very soon her family won’t be a K&B partner anymore,” Kaia said blandly.
“What?” Penny blinked, not understanding why Kaia would say that.
“Nothing. Let’s go somewhere else to shop.” Kaia didn’t intend to elaborate.
Penny said, “Alright! I’m in a good mood today. I’m going to shop till I drop. Uh… originally I planned to buy you clothes, but it ended up with you buying for me. Oh right, how much was that dress just now? I’ll transfer it to you.”
“I didn’t pay for it,” Kaia replied truthfully.
Penny smiled. “Don’t joke around. Clothes from Kaye Bella aren’t free, and you’re not the big boss of K&B… How much was it really? I’ll transfer you the money…”
As they chatted, Kaia and Penny walked farther and farther away.
The store manager kept staring blankly after them until they completely disappeared from view. Only then did she lower her gaze.
A sales assistant came over, equally stirred up.
“What just happened? Who exactly is that Miss Bennett?” she asked, her voice trembling.
The store manager opened her mouth but paused.
As she thought, her pupils dilated, and she slowly raised her head to look at the large characters above the store door. “Kaye Bella“.
She murmured, “Her name is Kaia Bennett… Kaye Bella, and it’s under K&B.”
The store manager sucked in a sharp breath. ‘No way…‘
When Rita got home, she stormed around angrily. “Unbelievable! I’ve never been so humiliated in my life!
Her mother, Sophia, asked in puzzlement, “What happened? Why are you so angry?”
Seeing her parents back, Rita’s tears of grievance and resentment poured out.
“You have to stand up for me! Someone bullied me!” she wailed.
The moment Sophia heard this, her face darkened.

She said, “Who dared to bully my precious daughter? Do they have a death wish? Rita, tell me who it was. I’ll get justice for you right now!”
