Baby Cupid: Could You Be My New Mommy (or Miss, My Father loves you)

Chapter 40 Mommy Was Bullied

This time, when Lucy went back to her dressing room to have her makeup done, she was reciting the lines using her own script. She wanted to display an excellent performance in front of Benjamin. When it was time to shoot, Lucy had mentally prepared for everything, and was ready to act at a moment's notice.

But as soon as the cameras started rolling, the leading actor playing the emperor flew into a fit of rage and yelled, "This is the imperial palace! Even if you are good friends with the empress, I will not stand that you abused my maid without my permission!" After he said that, the emperor ordered his guards to punish her with twenty hits from a wooden plank.

Before Lucy had the chance to react, she was dragged away by a group of guards, and the cruel beating began.

"Ah!"

Lucy bellowed in pain as the plank struck against her delicate body.

The look on her face was sheer pain that was free from pretense, and Vivian took the opportunity to get a close-up shot of her.

Daryl's eyes widened as she watched the horrifying scene. This scene was astonishingly similar to the time Lucy changed the script without her knowledge and slapped her. "Benjamin is already formidable at such a young age," Sofia whispered to her. Hearing Sofia's remark, Daryl turned to the crowd, and saw that Benjamin was watching the scene at the moment. His handsome face appeared strikingly similar to Zack's cold and ruthless appearance.

She couldn't resist chuckling. "This child is something else. He handles reason and emotion quite well."

Perhaps he was taking after Zack. With a father like him, it wouldn't be difficult for the boy to become outstanding.

Whether she liked it or not, Daryl had to admit that Zack was an excellent man, except for his personality. After all, whenever he was acting cold, it was enough to freeze people to death.

By this time, Lucy had been beaten ten times with the plank. In reality, this kind of scene didn't need so many takes. But Benjamin was watching her, so she couldn't do anything to resist.

Later on, they were afraid that it would be terrible if news got out that Lucy fainted during the scene. So she told the producer to intercede and speak to Benjamin. After that, the boy let her go. "Lucy, what on earth happened?"

When Sadie returned, she noticed that Lucy's face was as pale as a sheet. She was lying on her stomach on the sofa, and couldn't stand up at all.

"I..."

It was so painful that no voice could escape her throat. Lucy grabbed onto Sadie's clothes and groaned, "Take me to the hospital!" Upon hearing this, Sadie immediately asked a male staff to carry Lucy on his back, and then she drove her to the hospital at once. "Sofia, do you think something bad will happen to Lucy?"
