A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1210

After Cedric left, Latonia leaned back on the couch, arms folded across her chest, legs crossed casually up straight, staring sternly at Hertha.

"Give her a good three slaps!"

Upon the order, the bodyguard quickly raised his hand, smacking Hertha's face three times quickly.

After the hard slaps, Hertha flicked her messy hair out of her eyes and glared angrily at Latonia.

"Why the hell are you hitting me?!"

"You set my son up, why wouldn't I hit you?!"

Having gotten the scoop and checked the surveillance footage, Latonia certainly wasn't blind to the fact that Hertha had staged the whole drama just to piss Hailey off.

"I didn't set him up, he got drunk and came onto me!"

"Break her ribs, then snap her fingers!"

Latonia, ignoring Hertha's angry roars and resistance, continued to command the bodyguard.

"Yes, ma'am!"

The stone-faced bodyguard pulled out a small hammer and took a vicious swing at Hertha's ribs.

The pain left Hertha speechless, leaving her lying on the ground, her red and swollen eyes staring daggers at Latonia.

The elegant lady on the couch slowly picked up her coffee and took a gentle sip.

"Ms. Hertha, if you just tell me the truth, you won't have to suffer like this. But if you keep playing dumb, they'll keep torturing you."

Hertha had a recording pen on her, so she didn't care. She gave a faint smile.

"Latonia, you used the same tactics to force me to break up with Cedric. You haven't learned any new tricks, have you?"

The hand holding the coffee froze in mid-air. Latonia lifted her eyes to look coldly at Hertha.

"You have the nerve to bring up the past?!"

"Why shouldn't I?"
