Chapter244

Maureen rubbed her aching neck as she stepped outside.

Adrian lay writhing in pain, unable to rise. “Maureen… you actually brought thugs to beat me?

Do you have any idea who I am now?”

Maureen glanced toward Justin.

Without hesitation, Justin stomped on Adrian’s chest again.

“Withdraw the lawsuit!”

Justin’s icy command cut through the air.

Adrian desperately clawed at Justin’s leg, panic rising. “Fine! I’ll withdraw it! I will!”

Justin kept his foot planted firmly.

Servants watched their second young master pinned beneath Justin’s boot, none daring to intervene.

Adrian felt his organs screaming, tears welling.

“Sis… I was wrong, Sis… Make him stop! He’ll kill me!”

Only when thoroughly broken would Adrian call Maureen “Sis.”

Maureen remembered their childhood fights. She’d fought back at first.

Younger then, Adrian always lost.

After each beating, he’d sob pitifully: “Sis… I’m sorry, Sis…”

But Noelle always intervened-grabbing whatever was nearby to hurl at Maureen.

Once, a vase shattered against Maureen’s skull. Blood painted her face crimson, the world drowning in red.
