章 55: HALF-SIBLINGS (2)

MONA'S heart broke when she saw the slap marks on Neoma's back.

Nero called her earlier and informed her that aside from getting splashed by hot tea, Neoma was also grabbed in the arm and slapped on the back.

So, she immediately checked her daughter's back while they were in the car.

And now that Mona was looking at Neoma's arm closely, she noticed the red mark around her wrists aside from the burn marks on her forearm.

[How can that grandma beat someone else's child…!]

"Eomma, I'm fine," Neoma said while fixing her clothes. "It's also my fault for talking back to Aunt Nichole's mother-in-law. I was rude so I deserve this."

Mona took a deep breath before she spoke. "Even if you were rude and talked back to an older person, that grandma still doesn't have the right to hit you, Neoma. If she has a problem with your attitude, then she should have scolded and hit me since I was the one who raised you."
