Dominant Boss: Call Me Hubby, My Dear

It was raining cats and dogs in South Hampton City. Even the dark sky felt like it was going to crash on the city.

There was a woman covered in blood collapsed in the living hall of the Lawrence family's manor.

After the tragedy unfolded, everyone left, leaving her alone.

She was hanging onto her last breath on the floor.

The harsh words of her father, her biological father, echoed in her ears.

"Jeanne, who do you think you are? Our family doesn't condone your outrageous behavior! If you weren't that close with Eden, I'd have thrown you out of the house when your mother died after giving birth to you!

"I, Alexander Lawrence, have only two children, Jasmine and Joshua, and you, Jeanne, are no longer my own!

"Whoever so much as helps her or sends her to the hospital will have to go through me! I want this girl to learn the consequences of defying me!"

Jeanne smirked. Her stepsister had snatched her boyfriend and yet it turned out to be her fault?

She squinted her eyes at Jasmine.

Jasmine squatted right in front of her face. She was no longer the cute and innocent girl. What replaced her innocence was a vicious grin.

"Jeanne, how does it feel now that you've been whipped by Father?"

Jeanne shut her eyes. She did not want Jasmine's disgusting look to be the last thing she saw before she died.

"I thought you were the golden child of our family, the princess of the prestigious Lawrence family. I thought you said Eden loved you? But did you know he cares more about me than you?"

If Jeanne could stand or so much as lift a hand, she would strangle Jasmine and drag her to hell together.

"Jeanne, you're a big fat joke! The biggest joke in high society. You lost your fiance and yet people abandoned and isolated you... You might as well just die," Jasmine said with a smirk.

No, Jeanne's will to survive was strong, she could not just die because Jasmine told her to. She had to stay alive regardless of the condition so that she could take revenge on this family. Jasmine sized up the terrible injuries on Jeanne and it put an evil grin on her face. She grabbed a glass of water, mixed it with some salt, and sprinkled the salt water over the whiplash injuries. "Argggh!" Jeanne squealed in pain.

Everyone in the Lawrence family was invisible at the moment. They simply watched the torture with crossed arms and soft smirks.
