"I would have continued to ignore you. But when your actions put innocent lives in danger, I cannot turn a blind eye," Yu Holea said coldly, her voice cutting through the tension in the room.
"Your selfishness and greed have caused irreparable harm to your family and to others."
Mrs. Pan's face contorted with a mixture of fear, shame, and defiance as she listened to Yu Holea's words.
She knew that she had made grave mistakes, but she wasn't ready to face the consequences.
"I... I did what I had to do to protect my family," Mrs. Pan protested weakly, her voice trembling with desperation.
"I never meant for anyone to get hurt."
Yu Holea's expression remained impassive as she regarded Mrs. Pan with disdain.
"Your actions speak louder than your words," she said icily. "You betrayed your own daughter and endangered everyone in this mansion for your own selfish desires."
