Right at this moment, Winston put his arm over Lyla’s shoulders. She could feel the heat from his palmon her shoulder as he gave her a gentle squeeze.
Even though he was silent, Lyla could hear his heart pounding through his chest. Her teary eyesglistened.
With Winston around, she was safe in her shelter. There was a place for her soul to rest.novelbin
“Mr. Javier, as the head of your family, could you kindly keep a close watch on this loose-mouthedbitch? Winston spoke up suddenly in a cold tone.
The way he glared at Sophia was as if he was about to burn a hole through her.
Everyone was taken aback by what they just heard.
Loose-mouthed … bitch?
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have guessed that Winston, an upper-classman, was the one who uttered those very words!
Sophia was enraged with embarrassment, and her face turned redder than a tomato!
However, when her eyes met Winston’s sharp gaze, she flinched.
Jasper was completely floored. He had no idea what kind of expression he should show. “Your father’swords were … really shocking. Now I know where you get your character from, Lyse.”
“That’s how he always surprises the outsiders. I have always known mind, even if it may sound crude.Get used to it.”
Just as Alyssa finished speaking, her cell phone started vibrating suddenly. She looked down and tooka peek at it quietly.
Then, she shot a look at Sophia. Her scarlet lips turned up slightly into a cold smile.
Javier took a deep breath and commanded, “This time, Sophie, you have indeed misspoken. Apologizeto Madam Lyla immediately.”
Sophia was so mad that she was foaming at the mouth. She clenched her jaws so tightly that theybegan to hurt.
She had underestimated how protective Winston was toward Lyla. The care he showed her was nonelike what she had ever seen in Javier!
Although she started the clamor with Lyla, she didn’t have the guts to displease Winston.
In the end, she could only bite the bullet and utter softly, “I was being too emotional earlier and lostcontrol of my words. I’m sorry, Madam Lyla.”
“Hah, that’s it?” Winston scoffed.
The look in his eyes was extremely terrifying. Bright-eyed, he questioned, “Do you think that us Taylorsare such easy people? Are you treating my wife as a pushover?
“Also, you also hurt my daughter with your vilifying words earlier. Did you think that I was deaf anddidn’t hear you?
“A word of apology is not going to cut it. You have poked the bear, and I am not going to let you off soeasily.”
“What do you want us to do then, Mr. Taylor?” Javier asked
As much as he was unhappy with Sophia for causing trouble, Winston was also unequivocally upset bythe Becketts’ attitude toward them.
“I want that bitch to give herself two tight slaps. One is to apologize to my wife, Lyla, and the other toAlyssa. If so, I will let it go for the sake of Mr. Beckett Senior.”
Winston made his demand casually, but it threw everyone in an outrage!
He wanted Sophia to hit herself? He might as well have gotten someone to smear shit on her!
“You… You’re totally taking advantage of me! I am the wife of a plutocrat! I’m Javier Beckett’s wife!How dare you make such a request?” Sophia yelled while stomping her feet in anger.
Javier looked extremely unhappy, but he hadn’t agreed to Winston’s demand.
Winston couldn’t wait any longer. He called out angrily, “Neil!”
“I’m here, Mr. Winston!”
Who was Neil Benton? He was Winston’s loyal devotee, a follower at his beck and call! With widestrides, he marched to the front of Sophia.
Before they knew it, he raised his arm and gave her two consecutive slaps in two left and rightmovements!
Sophia screamed in pain. Both her cheeks turned red and swelled up in an instant.
Back in those days, Neil was a black belt master in karate. Sophia was really put through the wringer.
