There was a fit of uncontrollable anger in Stanley's chest. Every time when they were sleeping together, she couldn't even bear it when he put in a little more strength, and he would slow down as he looked at her pitiful face in order not to let her suffer.
But now she was beaten to a pulp by these two women.
How dare they bullied the woman who he had been pampering dearly!
The tall and sturdy man turned around and glared at the two women with his cold eyes. "Who hit her?"
His voice was faint, but it made the two women's hearts skip a beat.
When Cecilia met the man's dark and horrifying gaze, she was so scared that she dared not look straight into his eyes. Her palm was covered with cold sweat as she held Evonne's hand tightly.
"You don't want to talk, do you?" Stanley raised his eyebrows and then nodded. "Okay, since you don't want to talk, let's solve it by my own way."
His own way?
What was he going to do?
Evonne got goosebumps and a bad feeling spread through her heart.
Sitting down on the sofa with his long legs crossed, Stanley looked exceptionally elegant, reserved, and gentle, but his words and tone were chilling and fearsome. "Anthony, beat them. Each person gets ten slaps. After that, let them go."
What?
Evonne's hair stood when she heard that. He was ruthless!
Cecilia grabbed Evonne's arm tightly and uttered, "Mom, call the police. Hurry up and call the police!"
Stanley smiled and said, "Call the police? Good idea. You trespassed the private ward and beat and scolded the family members of the patient here. It's a criminal crime."
Evonne was clearly aware of Stanley's horror that her calmness dissipated and she started to feel panic. "S- Sir, we just had a little conflict."
There was a coldness in Stanley's eyes.
"Anthony, do it!" "Yes!
Anthony strode to the front of Evonne and Cecilia.
He was tall and strong, accompanied by a cold-faced bodyguard. As soon as he walked over, he gave out the terror and fearsome aura that Cecilia burst into tears on the spot out of fright. "Mom, think of something!"
Scared, Evonne stepped back to protect her daughter. "S-Stay back!"
Anthony took off his coat and gave a look to the bodyguards, who immediately understood his signal and went up to separate the two women. He grabbed Cecilia, who was so scared that her face turned pale. Anthony lifted his hand and was about to slap it on Cecilia's face.
"Wait."
Stanley suddenly said.
Everyone turned to look at him.
Stanley simply smiled and looked at Cecilia. "My assistant is a man after all. He never shows sympathy when beating people. Your face is so tender, it will definitely swell if he slaps you. I'll give you a chance."
Evonne blurted, "What chance?"
Stanley shifted his gaze at her, and the smile on his face faded bit by bit. His delicate facial features were as sharp as a blade. "She's your daughter, so you do it. Slap her 20 times, and you two can leave!"
Not only Cecilia and Evonne but also Sharon, who was standing in the corner, were stunned by his remark.
Sharon looked at the cold and arrogant man sitting on the sofa and felt as if the vicious and barbarous man was a stranger.
"Why? You don't want to do it?" Stanley raised his eyebrows and said impatiently, "Anthony, do it!"
Anthony was about to slap Cecilia in the face again when Evonne shouted, gritting her teeth.
"Stop!"
Anthony stopped and glanced at her faintly. Then he stepped aside and said, "Please."
Evonne's heart was bleeding with hatred and rage, but she couldn't do anything about it. If she didn't do as he said, it was highly unlikely that she could leave this place. They were two women and were no match for these ferocious men.
She gritted her teeth and looked at her daughter. "Cecilia, bear it."
It was better for her to slap her than to let the strong man do it.
After saying that, Evonne slapped her multiple times in the face.
"Slap! Slap!" The crisp and clear sound echoed in the ward.
