Chapter 1533
But just as he was saying that, the police shoved him into their car and took him away.
Nicole looked at the screen and darted Jared a glance. He would never allow someone who had dared to harm his
fiancee get away with it that easily. Although she had freed the man, he had still called the cops on him. On top of
that, Claus had obtained the recording, and so, Nicole used it to her advantage.
The instant everyone had seen that which had happened on screen, all of them cast their grim gazes at Fiorella.
'So, the gift that this woman was musing about...was hiring someone to kill Nicole?' 'And she dared to admit it so
boldly? Is this woman out of her mind?' one of the folks in the crowd thought.
Fiorella had failed to anticipate that the man had not only failed in his assault, but had also been caught in the
process. The cherry on top of it all was, he had even sold her out.
'Hiring someone to harm another person is a crime that carries prison time!'
In spite of it all, Fiorella did not back down. "So that was why the person I've sent d id not reply to me. Turns out that
you're already waiting for me here. Miss Riddle. What a schemer."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIndeed, she actually had the nerve to bark back with a snide remark.
At this moment, Colton, who had already had enough of his daughter's antics, raised his hand and slapped her.
"Shut up!"
Fiorella, who had never been beaten by her father before, suddenly took a slap to the face and was sent tumbling
onto the floor.
The impact of her father's slap was so strong that her ears were left ringing as blood seeped out of the corner of
her lips.
'I was speaking up for Dad! I was standing up to her for the honor of the Fishers. Why the hell did Dad hit me?!' she
seethed.
"You... hit me, Dad?" Fiorella looked at Colton in shock.
She had never seen her father with such a menacing look on his face.
"The person I'm hitting is a foolish, pigheaded daughter! You dare to attack Miss Nicole, have you grown tired of
living?!" he bellowed.
Fiorella's actions might very well have made the Fisher family enemies of the Riddle family along with all of the
other great families present. Indeed, she was extremely, extremely foolish, to have done what she did.
"Why... why can't I screw with her? She's just the daughter of a third-rate family who picked her up from the
streets! How is she comparable to me?! Fiorella argued.
Jared being not attracted to her notwithstanding, she could not understand why her own father too, was defending
Nicole before everyone else.
'What sort of charm has this vixen cast on everyone here?!' she thought.
"Miss Fisher, I think you got it backward. How are you comparable to Nicole?"
At that moment, Preston stepped forward to defend Nicole's honor, no longer willing to see her being picked on.
He did not know back then, but now that Nicole was the bearer of the Fire Crest, he too would get to bask in its
glory. Therefore, there was no way he would allow anyone to screw with his cousin sister.
"That's right! Who do you think you are? Comparing yourself to Nicole?" Ellar said, stepping forward to defend
Nicole too.
The rest of Nicole's brothers and cousins then stepped forth to defend her too.
Sean looked down at Fiorella from up high, and said, "It matters not whether you are the daughter of the Fisher

and take it lying down!"
"You sure don't know your place. You're just a Fisher and you think the Riddles are people you can simply trifle
with?" Steve glared at Colton.
Fiorella sat on the ground, looking a little confused. Are the Riddle brothers out of their minds or what?' They are
willing to antagonize the Fisher family just to defend Nicole?'
What was even stranger was that Colton was apologizing to Sean and Steve.
"Miss Nicole, Mister Sean and Mister Steve, please stay calm. My daughter only did what she did out of impulse!
Since Miss Nicole is unharmed, please let my daughter go!" he pleaded.
Even though Mrs. Fisher had no idea as to what was going on, she immediately apologized to him after her
husband." Yes! It's my daughter's naivety and ignorance that led her to assault Miss Nicole. It is my failure as a
mother that I didn't raise her right. I apologize on her behalf!"
"Dad! Mom! Are you guys insane?" Fiorella yelled. 'Nicole is just a daughter of the Riddle family. Why must my
parents lick her boots? Why would they forsake the honor of the Fisher family?'
"Shut up!" Colton glared at her. "If you dare utter another word, I'll see to it that I no longer have a daughter by the
name of Fiorella Fisher!"
He was done holding back against that imbecile of a daughter of his running her mouth. If the old man back was to
find out what she had done back home, she would be expelled from the family.
