His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 981

“Enough!” Heather slammed her fists onto the table. Hannah was shocked and started trembling.

“Look at you. We don’t resemble each other at all! Stop shaking!” Heather demanded. She wanted to kick her sister so badly. “Are you afraid of me? Genuinely afraid of me?”

“Y-Yes, I am,” Hannah said in a nervous and small voice.

“You’re afraid, huh?!” Heather smirked coldly. “If you’re terrified of me, then you wouldn’t have gotten your ears pierced without my permission!”

Heather also had to get her ears pierced because of Hannah’s selfish desires. Heather had never wanted to change anything on her body and especially hated tattoos and piercings. Training to excel in kickboxing was already tiring and painful, so why would anyone do that to their body?

Moreover, having pierced ears would only give Heather’s enemy’s another opportunity to hurt her. Imagine if she was fighting someone and the person took a chance to pull at her earrings. It would cause severe damage. Heather did not want to allow something like that to happen.

However, Heather had to do that because of her sister, so she started to despise Hanna even more. Since the two shared the same face, Heather had to put up with this. The Riggs family already had an outstanding daughter like Heather, so she felt they did not need someone as useless as Hannah.

“I-I’m s-sorry,” Hannah said with her trembling voice.

“It’s too late for apologies now. I had to do what you did because of your rashness!” Heather became increasingly furious as she spoke. She picked up the cane she had placed on the table and started hitting Hannah.

Hannah bit down her lips in pain but did not avoid it. After many years of experience, she knew the beating would only worsen if she tried to avoid them. The beatings would end soon if she stood still and let Heather vent her anger. Heather’s wrath was far more horrifying than some beatings.

Heather would also ensure not to hit Hannah’s face or visible areas such as her arms or legs. She would always beat Hannah’s back or inner thighs. Heather’s strikes were painful as she had the strength of a fighter and the thin cane she used.

Hannah sometimes thought the only thing that could separate them from each other was the scary scars that covered her back.

Naturally, Heather had hidden these beating sessions from others and would only do it in her bedroom. Hannah also preferred it this way and sometimes felt somewhat relieved her sister would beat her since it meant Heather’s wrath toward her would subside a little.

If Heather chose not to beat Hannah, it only meant she was bottling up her anger and would explode, damaging the family even more.

Hannah continued to endure the lashing quietly. When Heather finally felt satisfied, she stopped and glanced at Hannah. “Make sure you remember this lesson!”

“I’ll remember,” Hannah could not help but tremble in fear. She clenched her hands into tight fists, trying to suppress the pain. She dared not bite her lips as that would result in another series of beatings.

“You better not forget. I hope this is the last time you pull something like this!” Heather threw the cane on the floor and approached Hannah.

She looked at Hannah and sighed, “It’s not like I love to beat you, but you must remember we’re on to something important here. For the Riggs family’s sake and our safety, it will only get us all into grave danger if the public finds out about you. How would the family survive without me?”
