I nodded, then immediately walked toward the
twins.
The people around me finally realized that
something was wrong.
く
Some teachers tried to stop me. “Maddie’s
mom, calm down.”
I ignored them, walking straight to the twin
who said he was going to strip Maddie naked,
squatting down to his level.
“You really like looking at other people’s
panties?”
He raised his chin, his nearly six–year–old
height already reaching my chest.
“None of your business!”
I smiled faintly, then tore open the boy’s
jacket, two buttons flying off.
“Then you should try what it feels like to be
stripped naked.”
“What are you doing?”
Brianna Gallagher screamed, running over.
“Let go of my son! Who is your daughter to
you? Would it kill her to be looked at a couple
times?”
“Mom! Mom! Help!”
The crowd instantly went wild.
“Maddie’s mom! Don’t get emotional!”
The principal rushed over, her face pale. “We
really can’t afford to offend Ms. Gallagher!”
“Yes, yes!”
Other teachers followed along, urging, “For
the sake of your child, just let it go!”

“If Ms. Gallagher gets angry, we’ll all suffer!”

Brianna Gallagher gave an order. “Hold that
crazy woman down for me!”
d
Eight bodyguards rushed in from all
directions.
“Maddie’s mom.”
Ms. Williams‘ voice trembled. “They’ll really
beat someone to death. Last week, a delivery
guy accidentally scuffed Ms. Gallagher’s shoe,
and he’s still in the ICU!”
But I didn’t have time to care.
The bodyguard captain had already swung a
baton at my head.
I dodged to the side, and a smooth combo of
moves sent the six–foot–tall man crashing to
the ground like a sack of potatoes.
Then, seven or eight bodyguards were unable
to fight back.
The crowd suddenly stirred.
When the last bodyguard was on the ground,
his arm twisted behind him, the twins finally
panicked.
“Let me go! Witch!”
The older twin kicked wildly. “My dad’s
coming to kill your whole family!”
The younger one screamed, “Poor people
should be our dogs! You’re not allowed to
touch me!”
I couldn’t help but laugh.
“Then let’s show everyone what the children
of the richest family look like and how they’re
different from us poor people.”
Ten seconds later, the two kids, wearing
cartoon underwear, were in front of the
crowd.
The crowd whispered, and you could see that
they were gloating.
I clapped my hands and looked at Brianna
Gallagher, imitating her calm demeanor.
“Tell me, how much compensation do you
want?”
Brianna Gallagher trembled with anger, her
carefully styled curls a mess.
She pointed at me, her finger shaking. “You,
you’re crazy? You dare touch my sons! Do
you know who I am? I can make sure you and
your daughter don’t survive in Golden Gate!”
“I know.”
I said slowly, “Just Brianna Gallagher who
hooked up with a rich man.”
Her face flushed red. “You think I won’t rip
your mouth apart! And with your poverty, can
you even afford to pay?”

“My son’s school uniforms are custom–made
from special fabric!”
I remained calm. “So what?”
Brianna Gallagher’s face worsened.
“Honey!”
She took out her phone, dialing a number and
deliberately turning on the speakerphone.
“Hurry up and transfer some money to me!
Someone’s bullying our sons! And they tied
them to a tree! Now they want to humiliate
me with money, I’m going to show them a
thing or two!”
There was a moment of silence on the other
