That night, Benjamin was also sent to the hospital, covered in bruises. Although he only had bruises and no internal injuries, Hazel's heart was still broken. She sobbed and yelled, wanting Yvonne to pay the price!William couldn't stop Hazel, so he followed her to Miller Villa.Outside the gates, Hazel yelled, "Yvonne! Come out right now! How dare you beat Ben up! Don't stay hiding! I'm going to call the police!"Inside, Yvonne signaled Lloyd to sit back down. "Stay with Elvin. I'll deal with her. She can't do anything here." Seeing Yvonne leave the room, Elvin walked over to the balcony. Lloyd followed him. They watched as Yvonne walked over to the gates.Hazel went maniacal. She looked like she wanted to kill Yvonne. She shook her gates with her hands. "Yvonne! I dare you to open this gate right now!""By all means, yell louder." Yvonne crossed her arms. "Let everyone know that your son is a rapist.""W—what nonsense are you talking about?" Hazel's face paled. "You're the one
"You're still defending that bastard!" Philip was furious. "Fine, this isn't in my control. After Ms. Mitchell wakes up, if she wants to report it to the police, we will cooperate with her."Hazel panicked. "Father, w—what do you mean? Are you siding with an outsider? You can't do that!""You need to draw a line! Since Benjamin dared to do such evil things, he should be prepared to bear the consequences! The Anderson family will never protect someone like him!"Philip had always been hard-headed. Now that he'd made himself clear, he no longer wanted to deal with Hazel. He got up and left. Hazel wanted to go after him, but William pulled her back.William looked at Stephen, who was approaching them. "Stephen, Yvonne crossed the line this time. She …""Who told you that Yvonne was the one who did it?" Stephen asked coldly.William was baffled. Was Stephen not here to stand up for Yvonne?"Who else was at the hotel last night?" Stephen pressed on. His gaze was extremely icy and sha
When Linda woke up and realized she was in a hospital, she jumped.James had just brought lunch for her. When he saw Linda sitting up, he immediately went over to her. "You're up? Are you feeling alright?""I …" Linda's head hurt. She frowned and looked at James. "Why am I here?" All she remembered was drinking a tiny shot of alcohol. She had no recollection of what had happened after that."Benjamin Anderson, that bastard tried to assault you. Luckily, you're fine. If not, I'd probably have skinned him alive!"James was also a well-known philanderer, but he had his principles. He would never do anything without the consent of the lady. This was why, even if James and Benjamin were in the same circle, they never saw eye-to-eye.James spat. "If I ever see him again, I'll surely beat him up!"Linda was bewildered. Her face lost all its color. She'd almost been raped by Benjamin?James immediately consoled her, saying, "Don't worry. When I found you last night, you were still dress
Since Linda's condition wasn't serious, she was discharged the next day. James helped her check out and get her breakfast while she sat in her bed alone, staring out of the window in a daze.Just then, there was a knock on the door.Linda turned to see Eugene smiling at her. He was carrying a basket of fruits. There were two other middle-aged men behind him. "Linda, how are you?"Linda looked at the men behind him. "Who are they?""Hello, I'm William Anderson, Ben's father.""And I'm Mr. Anderson's attorney."William walked over to Linda and said apologetically, "Ms. Mitchell. I'm sorry for what Ben did to you. I have failed as a father."Linda was alarmed. She subconsciously retreated backward. "Why are all of you here?""First and foremost, I'd like to apologize to you. The other thing we wanted to discuss with you is how to settle this issue."William nodded at her. "Look at you. You haven't suffered much, but Ben still in the hospital. He's already gotten his punishment. S
"What the fuck are you doing?" An angry voice came from the door.James rushed over to Linda's side and shoved Eugene aside. He glared at William. "Mr. William, if I were you, I would have hidden myself in embarrassment for having Benjamin as my son. "How dare you try to do this to a lady? I finally understand why Benjamin has the guts to do such things. He has shameless people like you supporting him!"James spat. "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree!"William furrowed his brows. "You're from the Davison family, right? What has this got to do with you? You have no right to speak here.""Linda is my friend. I won't let you bully her!" James sneered condescendingly. "Benjamin is such a coward. Getting his parents to clean up after his mess!"William was furious. "D—don't you say that about my son!"James said arrogantly, "If Linda wasn't here, I wouldn't be so nice and mince my words!""You …" William had an ugly expression. "Mr. Davison. Offending the Anderson family beca
Elvin's brows were furrowed while he stared at his laptop. Although he couldn't really understand the content on Benjamin's hard disk, his instincts told him that it wasn't suitable for children.He randomly clicked a video open to see bold red words written on the screen, "Not Suitable For Children."Coincidentally, Lloyd entered his room just then with a plate of fruits in hand. He was shocked, to say the least, when he saw what was on the screen.He strode over and closed Elvin's laptop. He was taken aback and stuttered, "Y—you're just a child. What are you watching?"Before Elvin could explain, Lloyd ran out of the room and yelled, "Ms. Yvonne! Something bad has happened to Elvin!"Elvin was speechless.Yvonne frantically ran over to his room. "What happened?"Lloyd said, "Elvin is watching porn! He is only five years old!"Yvonne looked at Elvin in disbelief. "W—why are you watching those things?"Elvin was curious. "What is porn?"Lloyd answered boldly, "Those things on
James dropped Linda off at her place before driving over to Oceania Villa.The moment he entered, he enthusiastically looked for Stephen. "Stephen, what should we do about Linda's problem? We can't just let Benjamin off the hook!"Stephen looked up. "How is she?"He knew that James had been with Linda for the past two days, so he'd spent all his time and energy collecting evidence. Although he'd found some of Benjamin's victims, they had been forced to settle it privately, so they didn't have any evidence against him.Stephen was stumped because of that. If they didn't have any evidence, even if they reported it to the police, it wouldn't affect Benjamin at all.James slumped onto the couch. "William brought men over to look for Linda today and said a bunch of nonsense to her. She was quite traumatized by them. "Stephen, William, and the others have crossed the line! If we were to just let this go this time, they would surely make us the butt of the joke!"Stephen furrowed his
Stephen sneered. "Are you trying to stand up for her? No. You're just doing this for yourself, so you could create chaos in this family."Benjamin had almost raped his cousin. If word were to get out, not only would it be a joke, but the Andersons would also be utterly humiliated. Arthur had come over to stir the pot. The messier, the better!"How dare you!" Arthur sprang up and rebuked, "What nonsense is this? Stephen, where the hell are your manners? I wonder how this family brought you up this way! How dare you say such a thing about your elders?""Arthur" Philip called him out with displeasure. No matter what, Stephen was his favorite grandson. Arthur scolding Stephen in front of him irked him."I know Stephen better than you. He must have thought it through before choosing to hide Linda's identity. As for Benjamin's incident, surely no one would have thought it would happen. How could you blame Stephen?"Then, Philip looked at Stephen. "You should talk less too.""As if!" Ar
