How can a wicked person like Winnie still live so comfortably? Does she not dream every night after doing so many unconscionable deeds? Isn’t she afraid in those dreams?
The bodyguards also arrived at that point. They numbered seven or eight, and each appeared menacing. The security personnel at the gate originally wanted to stop them, but they instantly dared not utter a word and allowed them to enter.
Lucian kept comforting his wife and telling her to remain calm. All she had to do was come up with the right words to say to get Winnie to tell the truth. Meanwhile, he would record the entire conversation.
Roxanne and Lucian followed the address to Building No. 16. It was a three-story, stand-alone mansion. Despite being in the suburbs, it was still valued at no less than ten million.
The yard was surrounded by an iron fence, and there were still lights on at the second floor. It was apparent that Winnie was still awake. With a grim expression, Roxanne rang the doorbell.
Not long after, a gruff voice complained, “Who is it? It’s the middle of the night!” Roxanne narrowed her eyes. She was very familiar with the man’s voice. I’m sure that it belongs to Yosef.
Yosef walked to the iron gate while reeking of alcohol and peered out from inside. He froze when he spotted Roxanne, and then he caught a glimpse of the hostile-looking Lucian.
The streetlights allowed the couple to see the gloomy and uncertain expression on his face. “Roxanne? It’s so late. What do you want?” Yosef’s voice instantly lost its previous gruffness, and he appeared to be more or less sober up.
“Open the gate. I want to see Winnie!”
Roxanne did not wish to waste time talking to him. Her whole face seemed to be shrouded by a thick layer of frost.
“Sorry. My mom isn’t here now. Come back another day!” There was slight panic in Yosef’s eyes, but he still turned his face away and replied awkwardly. Following that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
Just then, Lucian’s steely voice rang out. “If you don’t open the gates, I don’t mind tearing down your mansion tonight!”
Yosef was so frightened that he stopped in his tracks, but he dared not turn around and face Lucian’s frosty gaze. In truth, the mansion’s iron fence was not all that high.
Seeing that Yosef was still frozen on the spot, Lucian had had enough of talking. He turned his head and shot a look at the bodyguards, and they immediately took action.
Darting forward like loosed arrows, they effortlessly went over the iron fence within three seconds. In the next instant, Yosef was pinned to the ground by two of the bodyguards.
“Roxanne, Lucian, what are you trying to do? This is trespassing. It’s against the law. I want to call the police!”
Yosef struggled fiercely, but he was powerless against the strength of the two bodyguards. His hands were tightly restrained, and his tears were about to fall from the pain. Roxanne walked over to him before crouching down. Then, she raised her hand and slapped him twice.
She would never forget how the so-called “elder brother” whom Grant forced her to acknowledge had brought many male classmates to bully her. Not only did they call her a b*tch and a piece of trash, but they also punched and kicked her.
Roxanne never thought that he would still dare to return to Horington and live carefreely in the mansion. Even after hitting him twice, she still could not relieve her hatred.
“Yosef, it’s time to settle the score for the harm you once did to me!” She gritted her teeth and wanted to slap him again, but Lucian held her back.
“Let me do it. Hitting this kind of person will get your hands dirty.” Lucian’s gaze was gloomy. He would never let someone that his wife hated so much off the hook.
“Break his hand!” Lucian’s malevolent aura completely exploded at that moment. His eyes gleamed with murderous intent as he gave the order in a low voice.
The bodyguards acted immediately, and in the blink of an eye, Yosef screamed in agony, “Ahhh! My hands! They are broken!”
Yet, the bodyguards’ expressions remained unchanged. They struck decisively, using their kicks to shatter the radius of Yosef’s hands at the fastest possible speed.
After the screams, only muffled groans left Yosef’s lips, and he kept inhaling sharply. The pain made him tremble all over. The veins on his forehead popped as cold sweat beaded on him.
Roxanne showed no concern for his predicament. She wanted nothing more than to rip him to pieces, so he should be thankful that he only had broken bones in his hands now.
She pondered how he could go so far as to lead a group of people to beat up her ten-year-old self until she was covered in bruises. There were even many hairline fractures on her body at the time. A small bit of retribution like this is nothing!
Yosef’s screams quickly attracted the figure upstairs, and she rushed down quickly.
“Yosef! Yosef, what happened to you?”
A look of shock crossed Winnie’s face when she rushed downstairs and saw the large crowd. She demanded loudly, “What do you think you’re doing? I’ve called the cops, so you’d better hurry up and leave!”
“Winnie, do you think you have the right to call the cops?” The bodyguards moved aside, making way for Roxanne to walk forward. Winnie’s expression fell instantly, and her eyes widened in panic when she spotted Roxanne and Lucian.
“What are you trying to do, Roxanne?” she asked guiltily, lowering her head to check her son’s condition. Although she did not see any blood, Yosef was grimacing in pain and drenched in a cold sweat. Winnie dared not move closer to him, nor did she dare to meet Roxanne’s gaze.
“Winnie Chardon, you’re truly shameless and ruthless! You tore apart my family. Even after becoming a disgusting homewrecker, you dared to drive my mother out! Then, you brought your children and ganged up with them to mistreat me. However, all that is merely the tip of the iceberg. I can’t believe you went as far as to plot my mother’s death! How did you get to be so black-hearted?”
As Roxanne slowly walked up to Winnie, she could no longer suppress her desire for revenge. For someone like her, slapping her a few times would be going too easy on her.
That thought made her abandon that plan. Then, moving so deftly that nobody noticed anything, a silver needle suddenly appeared in her hand.
Roxanne struck quickly, aiming the needle directly at a nerve in Winnie’s arm and causing immense pain. As she pushed it in deep, the latter cried out in agony. “Ahhh!”
It hurt so badly that Winnie immediately dropped her arm to her side. Her right hand felt as though it was broken. No matter how hard she tried, she could not exert any strength. The piercing pain also started making her head throb.
Another silver needle appeared in Roxanne’s hand right after she inserted the first. This time, she targeted Winnie’s left hand. In a matter of seconds, Winnie let out another ear-piercing scream, unable to speak. Her arms. hung straight down awkwardly, and she looked terrified.
To Roxanne, however, the horror in Winnie’s eyes was nothing compared to what she had. felt previously. Back then, she had lived in fear every day, afraid that Winnie would drag her off somewhere with Yosef and Yuliana, then beat her to death in an apparent accident.
Meanwhile, Lucian and the bodyguards were stunned by the pain she had inflicted with just two needles. It had crossed Lucian’s mind that while his wife’s medical skills could treat illnesses, they could also harm others. However, he had not expected such shocking effects.
Winnie was in so much pain that her body shook like a leaf. She kept retreating, but Roxanne stabbed a third needle into her right knee before she could dodge.
That made Winnie fell forward onto her knees with a thud. Since she could not use her arms to brace herself, her whole body slammed straight onto the courtyard’s stone floor. If not for the layer of snow covering the ground, she would have smashed her head and created a bloody mess.
