Between Ruin And Resolve: My Ex-Husband’s Regret

Chapter 1277:

“Let’s help Mr. Pierce settle down,” he said smoothly. “He’s not getting any younger… perhaps a touch of senility is setting in.”

The words had barely left his mouth when the bodyguards sprang into action. One grabbed a plate of spicy chili-glazed chicken pieces, while another seized Malcolm by the jaw, forcing his mouth open.

They forced the chicken pieces into his mouth and down his throat.

“Mmph! Mmph!” Malcolm thrashed, his arms flailing wildly, but it was like fighting shadows—his strength useless against the trained muscle holding him.

The spicy sauce burned down his throat like acid, tears springing to his eyes as he hacked and coughed, humiliated and broken.
