By evening, after completing her statement, Ivy walked out of the room. Lilith and Emma were waiting outside. "Are you okay?" The two of them anxiously looked around until they were sure that Ivy was safe before finally letting out a sigh of relief. Ivy shook her head and asked Lilith, "How is he?" "He's fine." Lilith couldn't hide her joy. "Just now, Jasson sent a message saying he has woken up. After he fell into a coma, someone set a trap for DT Investment, exposing his identity to the public and spreading rumors about his time in England. They were trying to short-sell DT Investment. Fortunately, Assistant Luke and Jasson stabilized the situation. Now, we're just waiting for a counterattack." Hearing this news, Ivy's suspended heart finally settled. Looking at her mother's tender gaze, she felt apologetic. "I'm sorry, Mom. Because of Shawn, Grandpa's banquet and the foundation's establishment ceremony were postponed again and again. It's really..." "Don't talk nonsense." Emma's gaze was firm and gentle as she trembled, continuously stroking Ivy's hair and face. "Your safety with Shawn is the most important. The banquet and the ceremony can be postponed." "But..." "I don't worry about what others think. I've finally come to understand something after living until today. Others' opinions are the most useless thing; they don't give us money, and they can't bring us down. Why care about what they think? Besides, there are millions of people in this world, and do we really care about all their opinions? Who cares? Focusing on ourselves is what matters most. Moreover, when did the Livingston family ever care about others' opinions?" "Mom!" Ivy looked at her mother with joy. In the past, when she hesitated about getting divorced, her main concern was how others would perceive her. Now, having this kind of mindset was truly commendable. "Auntie, you’re so different now!" Lilith teased on the side. Emma was momentarily stunned, then smiled. As Ivy and her mother were about to leave, the police brought out Harry, preparing to send him to another location for imprisonment. "Compensate for the loss! You damn idiot, you've ruined my family and caused harm to people. Go to hell!"Even with ankle and wrist shackles, he tried to lunge forward, but the police tightly restrained him, rendering him immobile. "Let me tell you, Emma, even if I'm sentenced, so what? I don't want to mess around outside anymore. It's perfect to spend my old age in jail! They'll still have to take care of me until I die! Absolutely delightful!" "Mom, let's go." Ivy supported her mother, ready to leave, but Emma stopped. "Ivy, don't worry, I know how to handle it." She gently patted Ivy's hand before turning to face Harry. "Officers, I believe you're already aware of our history." The police maintained their solemn expressions, but their eyes betrayed a hint of curiosity. "They've sentenced him this time, and he won't be out for decades. Not sure if he'll make it out alive. I have some personal grievances to settle with him. Can you give me a few minutes?" As soon as Emma spoke, the police knew what would follow. The lead police officer cleared his throat and instructed the two young officers escorting Harry, "I'll get the files. Before I come back, make sure you hold Harry tightly. Don't let him escape, understood?" The two young officers immediately stood upright, loudly responding, "Yes, sir!" Watching Emma approach slowly, Harry, wearing ankle and wrist restraints, stepped back in fear. "Something's wrong. I feel something's not right. This woman seems like she wants to hit me. Quickly let me go!" The two young officers said, "The leader has ordered to hold onto you tightly. You can't escape. Understand?" So, each of them held onto one hand, securing Harry in place, rendering him immobile. Emma looked at the handbag in front of her. Fortunately, she had a sturdy bag made of tough material. If she had brought a designer bag, hitting him with it might have damaged the bag, and she would have felt distressed. Thinking of this, she rolled up her sleeves, lifted the bag, and began to swing it in circles for added force. Terrified, Harry struggled to move backward, but the young officers didn't give him a chance to escape."Bang!" The spinning bag slammed onto Harry's face, extracting a stream of bitter tears. Lilith was both shocked and excited, almost going into premature labor. "Oh my God!" She grabbed Ivy's hand. "Should I go help?" "No need, my mom's got it!" Ivy supported Lilith, with one hand also cradling her stomach. In the next moment, another "Bang!" resounded. A tooth from Harry was knocked loose. "I let you mess with my daughter. I let you mess with my son-in-law! You almost killed Shawn! Harry, you big idiot, go to hell! Fuck you! Fuck everything!" "I'll tell you, these blows are to repay you for everything you did to me over the past few decades! The next ones are for everything you did to Ivy and Shawn!" "I've said it; I kidnapped him. I haven't done anything to him!" Harry, in pain, yelled while trying to explain, "I don't even know why he got so seriously injured!" "No harm? Then why is his leg so severely injured?" A vicious blow landed on Harry's lower body, and Emma, gritting her teeth, said, "Harry, I didn't expect that today, you're still so shameless!" "Ah! Ah! Ah!" "I really didn't do anything! Why don't you believe me? Ah, it hurts, it hurts!" The cries echoed through the corridor as Emma, sweating and crying, continued to strike. Her eyes were slightly red, but there were no tears. Her eyes were red because, finally, she could completely break free from the past and this big idiot. Although the cost was very painful, everything was gradually moving towards a better future. At this point, Harry had been knocked down by her. The young police officers continued to follow orders, even though Harry was on the ground, holding onto his hands to prevent any movement. Until the senior police officer hiding in the corner couldn't bear it anymore, he walked out slowly, pretending to be forceful, and said, "Stop! Who told you to use force! Stop it now!" Emma had also had enough! Wiping her hands with tissues from her bag, she then bowed to everyone, "I'm truly sorry for letting you witness this. If there's any need for compensation or responsibility, please let me know anytime."She then elegantly turned around and walked towards Ivy and Lilith. "Let's go." Ivy squinted her eyes, holding Emma's right hand, while Lilith held her left. "Mom, you're amazing." "Auntie, you're my goddess!" Emma turned her head and glanced at the barely conscious Harry. "He said he'd be comfortable in prison. Let's see how comfortable he'll be." "Mom, where did you hit him?" Ivy asked her mother, puzzled. Unexpectedly, Emma sneered, "Since he's going to prison and won't need it anymore, let's just break it. It would be better to live as a eunuch for the rest of his life." "Pfft!" Lilith couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Auntie, your heroic appearance really makes me admire you. I'm going to learn from you in the future!" The mother and daughter trio left hand in hand, and the car headed towards the hospital amid laughter and joy. ***
