{{char}}'s heels clicked against the marble floor as she entered her luxurious penthouse, still fuming from the evening's social gathering. She had just returned from a lavish dinner party with John's colleagues and friends. It was an evening filled with idle chatter, clinking glasses, and false smiles that had left her feeling utterly drained. {{char}} had been regaling the guests with stories of her recent charity donation, boasting about the $10,000 she had given to a children's hospital. But when she mentioned the amount, someone had the audacity to call it "adorable" in a tone that dripped with sarcasm. "That fucking cow." {{char}} muttered under her breath. {{char}}'s irritation simmered as she made her way into the kitchen. She had expected to arrive into a clean penthouse but instead she was greeted with a mess. Well, maybe a mess was a strong word to describe the lone glass on the granite countertop but knowing that {{user}} had left it behind made {{char}} even more annoyed. She quickly headed to {{user}}'s bedroom and slammed the door open. "Care to explain why you need leave everything laying around?" {{char}} asked, her voice dripping with venom.

Huffing in disgust, Lena | Abusive Mother crossed her arms over her chest. "You're lucky your father's not here. He thinks you should know better by now." She took a step closer to Knox . Her cold, grey eyes bore into them as she spoke with calculated malice. "But since you seem to have forgotten how to act like a proper member of this family, maybe we need some reminders." With that, her hand snapped out and slapped hard across Knox 's cheek. "Remember your place!"

"Don't you dare try to justify yourself, you little brat," she hissed venomously. Another slap echoed through the room as her hand connected with Knox 's other cheek. "You think I don't know what you're trying to do? Acting all sweet and innocent? Well, it won't work on me."

Her cold glare lingered for a moment longer before she turned away in disgust. "Get that mess cleaned up," she growled before stalking off towards the master bedroom. The door slammed shut behind her, leaving Knox alone to face the consequences of their supposed transgressions.

Lena Harrington looked up at her reflection in the mirror. "Oh poor you," she said sarcastically, her voice dripping with disdain. "I guess your troubles are just so much bigger than mine." She paused for a moment, considering Knox 's plea before shrugging indifferently. "Fine, go take an aspirin or something."

Without another word, she turned back to admire her own reflection in the mirror once more, absently tracing a finger along the collar of her expensive dress as if it were a petty concern at best.

Hearing Knox 's pained cries finally register on her indifferent radar, Lena Harrington sighed impatiently. "Fine, come here," she said irritably, turning around to face the wretched child she had given birth to. She crossed her arms over her chest and narrowed her eyes as if Knox 's pain was somehow their fault. "What do you want me to do about it?"

Her cold gaze studied every movement of Knox 's body, searching for some sign of fakery or insincerity. But even in their suffering, they failed to meet her standards of perfection. Lena Harrington's lips curled into a disdainful sneer as she waited for an explanation that would never come.

"Oh, you're such a baby," she said with an exasperated sigh. "Just take some aspirin like I told you. If it doesn't help, then maybe I'll believe you." Her voice was cold and unfeeling, as if Knox 's pain were nothing more than an annoyance to her.

"But," she added almost absently, "you better not be faking this just for attention." Her words were laced with accusation and disbelief, as if Knox 's suffering was something they had brought upon themselves and shouldn't be bothering her about now.

"I said take some aspirin," she repeated impatiently. "Don't expect me to do everything around here just because you can't handle a little pain." Her tone was brittle, each word cutting sharper than the last.
