Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 454

Next, Edward said the word “stand‘ to Rose. Rose did not move. She said to Sherri beside her, “Cry.”

Sherri smiled and said to Hackett beside her, “I love you.”

Afraid of losing. Hackett looked focused. “I don’t…

He thought, “Oh no! Saying that I don’t love you is the right answer, but if I say that, I’ll still be pegged by Rose.” Actually, Sherri didn’t think too much when she said it. She just blurted it out.

Sherri said, “It’s okay, Hackett. Even if you say you don’t love me, it won’t mean you don’t love me anymore. Say it?

In the end, Hackett did not say anything. He would rather die than say that he didn’t love Sherri. He saw how Edward looked after taking the punishment and thought that it did not hurt that much. His blind confidence was what hurt him. As he showed no fear, he stood up domineeringly and asked the guys to peg him. The moment he was pegged, he broke down.

He couldn’t help but blurt out, “Seriously? Rose! Why did you pick such a terrible punishment!”

He thought, “What a wicked girl!”

Hackett cursed.

Rose was gloating. She twisted her waist and held Edward’s hand under the table. Since Hackett questioned her just now, she felt great that she could have her revenge. “Well, I’m sorry that it hurts”

Natalie and Ava held their cheeks together and looked at Hackett’s pained expression. Hackett appeared in so much pain that the two of them frowned as well.

“Oh my god, it hurts so much. It hurts! Are we here for a happy gathering? This is torture. Oh my god, I can’t take it anymore. Take the pegs off me!”

Trevon felt that Hackett was noisy. He dug his ears and said, “This will end soon if you just keep your mouth shut.”

In the end, Hackett finished the punishment with a wail. During this period, he was not as domineering as before. It was Sherri, a pregnant woman, who helped him sit down at the table.

Sherri felt sorry for him while she was also amused.

Hackett couldn’t believe that Edward didn’t find the punishment painful. He lowered his head and asked Edward, “Why weren’t you in pain at all just now?”

Trevon kindly answered for Edward, despising Hackett for being sentimental. “Rose made him strong.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone who was originally holding back their laughter instantly laughed out loud. Hackett’s sorry state just now was still vivid in their minds. They kept imitating him. Sherri apologized with heartache, “Hubby, I’m sorry. I just felt like expressing my love for you.”

Hackett waved his hand to indicate that he was fine. He just needed to relieve the pain as he kept rubbing his face.

Rose felt that Trevon and Frank would definitely not be punished while playing this game. It was better to play some more intimate game. Otherwise, the one who would be tortured would only be Edward. Her brother was so scheming and asked tricky questions.

Edward might not be able to handle it.

In the end, the guys played with the paper strips for a while. It started with Trevon. Two people kept a long piece of paper in their mouths and tore it with force. When Natalie finished, Ava would proceed, and then the next one followed suit. When Frank and Edward tore the paper, it was a little awkward. The length of the paper was already quite short. If they didn’t do it well, they might end up kissing each other.

Frank bit the paper strip and said to Edward in a muffled voice, “Hurry up.”

Edward did not dawdle. He observed for a while and quickly tore the paper. Everyone looked at this scene and found it quite weird, but they were all very happy.

The paper strip had become even shorter when it came to Rose. Edward turned his head. Rose tilted her head to look at the paper. Frank covered Ava’s eyes, but she wanted to watch the fun. “Frank, what are you doing?”
