The Clutches Of Hell Novel

Chapter 26

“Since all of you are so assertive, why not become the CEO instead?” Charlotte blinked her sparkling eyes and glanced at the crowd with a nonchalant smile.

At once, the crowd turned silent and lowered their heads. None of them dared to talk anymore.

Then, Charlotte’s gaze landed on Daisy’s face that was full of blood and clicked her tongue. With her head tilted, she looked at Victoria. “Since you’ve beaten her to this state, I’ll deduct three months of pay as compensation for her medical fees. Do you have any objections to this?”

“No.” Victoria looked down, her palms covered with sweat. She was afraid there would be other punishments apart from her three-month salary deduction.

“You’re only deducting three months of her salary?” Daisy wasn’t crying anymore. Instead, she shouted in a shrill voice, “I disagree, Miss Charlotte! Deducting three months of her salary is too lenient for when she’s beaten me to this state. I want…”

“What do you want, then?” Charlotte cut her off with a half smile.

At this moment, Daisy was feeling as though someone was choking her throat. She couldn’t say anything for some time, and only her face reddened. Meanwhile, blood was trickling down her face from the wound on her head. It was scary, but somehow hilarious.

“I want two of you to send Daisy to the hospital. The rest of you should go back,” Charlotte said with a smile.

The crowd that was watching the fun pushed the job to each other. In the end, two women came forward unwillingly and brought Daisy to the hospital while the rest of them returned to their own rooms.

Then, Charlotte passed by Victoria and entered her room. When she saw the blood stains on the floor, she chuckled. “You’re really ruthless.”

Hearing that, Victoria felt her heart skip a beat. She clenched both sides of her shirt but quickly released them. “Yes.”

“Alright, you can tell me now—why did you beat Daisy up?” Charlotte sat beside the bed and raised her eyebrows. Without waiting for Victoria to answer, she continued, “Never mind. Don’t tell me. I’m not interested in hearing it either.”

She then took out two tubes of ointment from her bag and threw them at Victoria.

After Victoria caught them, she looked at the description on the box and saw that they were treatments for bruises and other wounds. With the ointments in her hand, she asked after hesitating for a moment, “Are they from you?”
