Rebirth of the Deadly Beauty

"The apology doesn't seem genuine," Yolanda said.

Samuel took a deep breath, trying to steady himself. Wincing in pain, he said cautiously in a shaky voice, "Ms. Henderson, I-I'm sorry… W-What can I do to show you I'm being sincere?"

"You enjoy drinking, don't you?" Yolanda looked over at Olivia, who was standing behind Samuel. "Go get ten bottles of vodka." Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Olivia blinked at Yolanda in confusion before quickly nodding. "Okay, I'll get them right away!"

Before long, Olivia returned with several waiters carrying ten bottles of vodka. She said nervously, "Ms. Henderson, the vodka's here…"

Unsure of Yolanda's intentions, she stood anxiously to the side while holding the tray.

"Make him drink all the vodka," Yolanda said calmly. "He can get up once he's finished all of them."

Diana, standing behind Yolanda, gently tugged at her sleeve. "Landy! Isn't this too much?"

Yolanda ignored Diana and addressed Olivia firmly, "Make sure he drinks every last drop of that vodka. Anyone who tries to cut corners will face the consequences if I find out."

Turning to the others around her, she added, "This is what happens if I catch anyone trying to help him."

She picked up a wine glass from a nearby table and let it fall, shattering on the floor. The onlookers held their breath.

"Let's go."

Yolanda wasn't interested in sticking around to watch Samuel drink. After shattering the glass, she grabbed Diana by the arm and left. Diana still looked somewhat bewildered even after they left the Westorian restaurant.

But soon, she turned to Yolanda and asked, "Landy, seriously, why is Mr. Liddell so scared of you? And where did you learn those moves you used earlier?"

"There are plenty of instructors in the juvenile detention center. You can pick up all kinds of skills there." Yolanda shrugged off the question with an excuse.

The excuse might have seemed a bit unconvincing, but it was hard for anyone to challenge it. She understood that people would eventually start to get suspicious if she changed too drastically. But Diana and Harold weren't the brightest, and their vanity made them pretty myopic.

When they noticed her transformation, their first thought wouldn't be to question why she had changed so much, but how her change could benefit the Hendersons. So, Yolanda never worried that these two would catch on to her transformation.

As for Yvonne, she might be somewhat sharp, but her jealousy clouded her judgment. Yvonne would only focus on finding a way to return Yolanda to her former pitiful self, without questioning further.

"So, you're saying…" Diana hesitated, choosing her words carefully. "You learned your combat skills in the juvenile detention center? What about your acupuncture skills?"

"Yeah, that too. There were plenty of books to read at the center," Yolanda replied casually.

"No wonder." Diana nodded, surprisingly convinced by Yolanda's explanation.

Diana didn't really care about how Yolanda had picked up these skills. What mattered was that Yolanda was no longer the person who used to embarrass her. That was all that counted.

"Even so, you should keep a low profile and avoid getting into fights. No matter how tough you are, you can't take on a bunch of bodyguards at once, right? We'll all end up paying the price if you cross the wrong people," Diana advised.

As she finished speaking, she suddenly remembered Yolanda's gold card.
