Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 706 That Trembling Still Remains in the Body

William laid into Raymond with twenty lashes, not stopping until he felt satisfied.

Raymond's back was a total mess, blood still seeping out.

William took a deep breath, just looking at Raymond ticked him off. Knowing Raymond's tough-as-nails constitution, he waved him off impatiently. "Get out and kneel. And nobody better give him a coat."

It was freezing outside, and Raymond was just in a shirt. With his back all torn up, a regular guy would've been dead by now.

The butler, scared out of his wits, tried to step in but William cut him off, "He's strong; he won't die."

Without a second thought, Raymond got up and went outside to kneel.

The butler couldn't convince either of them, so he just sighed in the hall.

It was snowing like crazy outside. The butler wanted to hold an umbrella for Raymond, but Raymond stopped him.

"Mr. Montague, you should hold the umbrella. The snow's heavy, and when it melts, your clothes will get soaked, and you'll catch a fever," the butler said. Raymond stood tall. "No need."

The butler held the umbrella himself and stood by his side.

He was old, and by the middle of the night, he couldn't hold on any longer.
