My Second Husband novel Chapter 829

"Stop hitting me! It hurts! Stop!"

Eudora heard this and mocked him, "So now you know that it hurts? Then, why weren't you worried about them feeling the pain when you beat them just now? They're your wife and child. How could you do that?"

Ralph no longer dared to speak anymore!

In the end, Eudora ordered Clint, "Bring him to the police station and report this as domestic violence!"

Clint turned around and left.

Eudora turned her head to look at Katie and her mother, "Quick, get up!"

Her mother could not get up at all. Eudora looked closely and noticed that her ribs were injured. That was why she had been lying on the bed all this time.

Come to think of it, Ralph must have caused her to become like that!

Fury rose within her. Eudora said coldly, "I should have whipped him a few more times just now!"

Albert also sighed, "Why didn't you tell us about this? If we had known, we could've at least helped you out!"

The mother shook her head, "It's no use! He threatened to kill Katie if anyone else found out. I want to protect Katie. It's okay to be beaten a few more times. I'm on the verge of death anyways!"

"How could you think like that? You should sue him and let him go to jail!"

The woman smiled bitterly, "Miss, you don't understand. It's not that I haven't done that before. In the end, they just sent someone here to mediate the situation. My parents don't even care about me. They just said it would be shameful to get divorced..."

Eudora simply could not believe what she was hearing. What era were they living in? She did not expect such outdated thinking to still exist.

As she was thinking, Katie suddenly fell to her knees in front of Eudora.

She pleaded, "Miss, please help my mom! She's in so much pain that she can't even sleep at night."

Katie looked like she was either eight or nine years old, just slightly older than Juju. However, her hair was frizzy and her clothes had been sewn with patches of cloth.

When she looked at Eudora with her large eyes, they were filled with longing.

How could Eudora resist such a gaze? She quickly reached out to help the child up.

"I'll definitely help you. Pack up your mother's belongings. Well take her to the hospital."

In the hospital, the doctor was shocked after examining the patient.

"Not only are her ribs broken, she also has many other injuries. Although she has recovered now, there are many long- lasting effects left. What's wrong with the patient's family? Why didn't they take good care of her?"

Eudora's heart ached as she listened, "Please give her the treatment she needs. They'll be more careful in the future!"

Upon coming out of the hospital, Eudora's face was pale.

She looked at Clint angrily and said, "Can you find a way to send that man to jail?"

If such a person was released, then Katie and her mother would surely suffer!

Clint looked hesitant, "I've sent him to the police station, but I think he'll only be detained for two weeks before being released."

As soon as Katie heard that he would be out in two weeks, she began to tremble as she hugged her mother.

Both the mother and daughter were truly pitiful. Eudora frowned and said, "How can this be. He has already committed such a crime, but he'll still be pardoned?"

"There's nothing we can do. It's just how the local law is. We can't do anything about it either!"

Eudora was furious, "Then, he can just beat people up as he likes? I won't allow that! Get me a lawyer. I want to sue him!"

Clint thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we ask Mr. Louis for that after we return to Rosaville City? He definitely has more experience in this than we do! He'll find a way!"

Eudora nodded, "Okay!"

After the inspection, Katie's mother was hospitalized. Katie herself wanted to stay and take care of her, so Eudora put down their things and left.

As for the medical expenses, Eudora had ordered Clint to take care of them!
