The stabbing pain on her scalp had not yet subsided when Eileen fell heavily onto the couch.

She struggled to rise, but in the next second, Eric pushed her back down.

“Why did you run at the sight of your brother? Will you still run now?” Eileen looked at him laughing, a laugh that resembled a life-stealing demon.

“What are you trying to do?” Eileen shrank into the corner of the couch, fear visibly etched on her face.

Eric casually picked up a box of beautifully made Blake cupcakes before sitting down beside her and opening it. “Don’t you love desserts the most, Eileen? How about I feed you some, hmm?”

From now on, she would not take another bite of cake.

Indeed, with her obedience, Eric did not do anything to her.
