SWNOVELS Chapter 94: I Want to See the Reed Family Bankrupt Within an Hour
Tina lifted her gaze, a hint of coldness in her eyes.
She stared at Amber for a moment, then her lips curled into a smirk, "So I stole your credit, what are you going to do about it?"
Mrs. Fanning and Beatrice were taken aback. Why was Tina playing the fool?
It was clearly Tina who had saved Shonna. By saying this, wasn't she falling right into Amber's trap?
Amber was also taken by surprise by Tina's words.
She knew very well it was her own medicine that had nearly killed Shonna.
She couldn't fathom how Tina possessed such impressive medical skills, but had it not been for Tina's intervention, the Fanning family would have never let her off the hook. But luck seemed to favor her!
Who made Tina save Shonna after her?
She couldn't blame Amber for biting back then.
After all, Tina was just a country bumpkin; who would believe her?
Thinking this, Amber angrily questioned, "Why would you do this? How does harming me benefit you? Tina, don't forget, you are also a daughter of the Reed family. Whatever happens to any of us, it's not good for you or the Reed family." Tina, hands in her pockets, looked down at her with an air of superiority, "What does the Reed family have to do with me?"
Her commanding presence seemed to dwarf Amber, who involuntarily felt smaller in her company.
Especially when meeting Tina's gaze, Amber couldn't shake the feeling that Tina could see right through her thoughts.
She took an instinctive step back, then defiantly said, "Yes, your ties with the Reed family may be cut, but the blood of the Reed family runs through your veins. Father is grandmother's biological son; that's an unchangeable fact. Regardless of severed ties, you are still connected to the Reed family. The better off the Reed family is, the better off you are."
"And I believe since you've returned, I haven't wronged you. Last time you made Mr. Farrell misunderstand me, and now you brazenly steal my credit. You're going too far."
Tina chuckled, brushing a strand of hair from her cheek with a mischievous tone, "So I've gone too far, what about it?"
"You!" Amber seethed, "I originally just wanted an apology from you, and for you to clear things up with Mrs. Woodham, but if this is your attitude, don't blame me for not considering our sisterhood."
Tina laughed, "Is that so? Well, do whatever you need to do, quickly!"
Seeing that Tina was unyielding, Amber stopped talking to her and turned to Beatrice, "Mrs. Woodham, aren't you going to give me an explanation for this?"
Beatrice was already fuming, "I haven't even settled the score with you, and you want me to explain myself? How shameless can you be?"
Amber, instead of being annoyed by the scolding, chuckled, "Now I know your stance, so when something happens in the future, don't expect me to care about our family's relationship." With that, Amber didn't linger and left.
After she departed, Beatrice asked Tina, "Miss Reed, why did you admit to stealing Amber's credit? You were clearly the one who saved Shonna. Aren't you just causing trouble for yourself?" Tina's lips curved slightly, "Trouble is no fun if it doesn't come knocking."
Beatrice was puzzled, "What do you mean by that?"
Tina didn't answer but said, "I need to go give Miss Woodham her acupuncture treatment."
Had her time spent in the tender land after coming down from the mountain made everyone think she was weak and easy to bully?
How amusing!
After finishing the acupuncture treatment for Shonna, Tina left with Jared.
As soon as they stepped out of the Fanning family estate, Jennie's call came through.
"Tina, don't come home today, find a hotel to stay in tonight," Jennie's voice was urgent.
Tina frowned, "What happened?"
"Somehow Amber posted a message somewhere, claiming you colluded with the Fanning family to bully her because of her young age. She treated their daughter, and you stole her credit. The Fanning family turned their backs on her because she's an adopted daughter with no value to them. Her post went viral within minutes, and now people have splashed paint on our house. I'm worried about you getting hurt if they encounter you. Stay away for now, leave this matter to dad and me."
Tina's eyes narrowed, a chill emanating from her, "I'm coming back right now."
After hanging up, Tina had Jared drive her back to Pinkwater Ally.

Outside the gate of the community, a crowd of over a hundred people was blockingthe entrance, with a dozen security guards unable to hold them back. Some had even barged in. As Jared's car approached, someone spotted them, "That's Jared Farrell's car! Stop them."
Dozens then surrounded their vehicle.
Jared looked at the crowd outside with a cold expression and said to Tina, "Stay in the car, I'll handle this."
Tina's lips curved into a smile as she responded to him, "Mr. Farrell, I might be young, but I can still wield a knife."
Jared was taken aback, but before he could reply, Tina had already stepped out of the car.
Fearing Tina might get hurt, Jared quickly followed, protecting her behind him.
"Tina, you wretch! You seduced Amber's fiancé, causing their engagement to fall through, and now you're stealing her credit. Do you really think no one will stand up for Amber?" "Amber has been bullied into a corner by you, and here you are openly flaunting your love affair. What a perfect match of sluts and dogs!"
"Get out of Ensford, you're not welcome here!"
As they spoke, someone threw a water bottle at Tina.
Her eyes narrowed, ready to react, but Jared was quicker, kicking the bottle away.
His face stern, he advanced towards the person who threw the bottle, but they yelled, "Brothers, beat them up, beat this disgraceful couple to death!"
Jared shielded Tina behind him, charging into the crowd with swift movements, quickly subduing the ordinary people with a few moves.
Tina watched Jared's back, feeling an inexplicable warmth in her heart.
She had always been used to dealing with everything on her own, but it seemed that since arriving in Ensford, there were always people looking out for her.
Jared merely cast a cold glance at them before making a phone call, "Bring your people to Pinkwater Ally."
After hanging up, he took Tina's hand and entered the community.

They needed to check on Hugo and Jennie first.
The situation at Tina's house was grim; the door and entire hallway were splattered with paint, with the words "Tina, die!" scrawled on the wall.
Tina looked at the scene, her whole being radiating a fierce aura.
Jared tightened his grip on her hand, "Don't be afraid! I'm here."
Tina met his gaze and after a moment of silence, she smiled lightly, "Okay."
She wasn't afraid.
In fact, since her mother's death, she had feared nothing.
But inexplicably, she found herself wanting to lean on Jared.
The keypad lock was ruined with paint, so Tina used a key to open the door.
Inside, Jennie was nervously clutching her phone, Hugo still not home.
She was frightened by the possibility of the crowd breaking through the door.
Seeing Tina enter, she rushed over, scolding, "Why did you come back? Didn't I tell you to stay away? Leave quickly, find somewhere to hide. Those people out there are crazy. What if you get hurt?" Tina looked at her with concern written all over her face, feeling a wave of emotion, "Don't worry, I'll handle it."
Jennie wanted to say more, but Tina pulled out her phone and dialed a number.
The call connected quickly, and Tina spoke with a cold voice, "I want everyone to take action, suppress the Reed family with all our might. I want to see the Reed family bankrupt within an hour." After a pause, she added, "And remember, it's the entire Reed family. Anyone related to the Reed family, don't spare a single one!"
