Garrett felt as if a sharp pain seared through his heart. However, when he thought of the current relationship between Loredana and Cormac, he still chose to reluctantly take out some of them.
When Maxina married him at that time, the dowry brought by her consisted of the artefacts and cash in which cash was up to two million yuan. There were also some valuable artefacts and the total value of them was approximately five million yuan.
Garrett gave Loredana a cheque. The artefacts left were much lesser than those in the past. Last time, she saw Beulah putting on a bracelet on her wrist but the bracelet was not among them now. Garrett seemed to notice her doubt and explained, “It’s been too long. Some of them are already broken and lost, these are already all.”
Loredana knew what was what but she did not expose it. For her, it was good enough to get these. She would slowly take back the rest. She kept the cheque properly, carried the box and put it in the trunk.
Then, she entered the dining room with Garrett.
However, something wrong seemed to have happened.
There was broken glass on the floor. Annabelle’s skirt was stained with water and her clothes looked messy. She was sobbing with tear-reddened eyes. When she saw Garrett come in, she immediately threw herself at him, “Dad…”
It looked as if she was suffering from a great grievance.
Loredana glanced at her and walked over. Then, she noticed that Cormac’s face had a little redness.
Did he drink just now?
But the wine in front of him was clearly not drunk.
Loredana approached him and whispered, “What’s wrong with you?”
Cormac’s eyes raised. They sometimes looked clear but sometimes looked cloudy. He was apparently trying hard to control something.
He snorted, “Help me to get up.”
Loredana put his arm on her shoulder and wrapped her arm around his waist, “Let’s go home.”
“You can’t leave!” Just as Loredana was helping Cormac up, Beulah lurched to her feet, “You, you just did that kind of thing to Annabelle, don’t you have to take responsibility for that?”
“What happened?” Garrett also realized that something was wrong, “Dad…”
Annabelle cried even more, “Just now…just now…”
“Just now what happened?” Garrett looked at the clothes on his daughter’s body and frowned. He turned and looked at Cormac, “Young Master Mendelsohn, what had you done to my daughter?”
It seemed like he was questioning but he was actually hoping that Cormac had really done something to Annabelle.
In this way, he would not have to be coerced by Loredana.
Loredana glanced at the broken glass on the ground. A chill went down her spine and she was struck with terror. Beulah indeed resorted to every conceivable means as she even dared to use this kind of deceitful and despicable trick!
Loredana looked at Annabelle, “You’re trying to say that my husband molested you and sexually harassed you, right?”
She then chuckled, “My husband won’t like a person like you.”
“Annabelle is your younger sister and she is being bullied, how can you help an outsider?” Garrett spoke coldly.
Loredana harrumphed coldly, “Younger sister? My mother only gave birth to me and I’m her only daughter, how will I have a younger sister? What’s more, of course, I’ll help my husband because he is close to me.”
Cormac looked at the side of Loredana’ face. She kept mentioning him as her husband today so he really had a kind of illusion.
That he, himself was her husband.
Finished speaking, Loredana brought Cormac out. When they passed by Garrett, Cormac stopped his pace. Cormac’s eyes looked sharp and overriding under the light and there was a kind of powerful aura, “I have really learnt thoroughly today about the way that the Flores family entertain the guests, I shall double what I have undergone and pay it back to you in the future!”
Garrett’s face was tense. He turned to gaze at Beulah, “What’s going on?”
The thing did not happen as what had Beulah expected so she was also very panicked. But since the matter already came to this point, she could only persist. She sat on a chair and bawled, “I’m really useless, I can’t even protect my daughter well.”
Annabelle also burst into tears but the reason she cried was that she was scared.
Beulah added drugs into the water, wine and the dinner plate used by Cormac. Cormac did not touch anything but he drank some water while waiting for Loredana.
After seeing him drink the water, Beulah asked Annabelle to approach him and tried to bring him to the room to have sex with him.
But just when Annabelle approached him to help him up, Cormac directly smashed the glass onto her body. Annabelle still could remember how Cormac’s face looked at that time.
He was so angry that he gritted his teeth tightly and his face was twitching and vaguely contorted with rage and fury.
He looked at her with that kind of look.
Even until now, Annabelle’s heart was still throbbing with fear.
Loredana glanced at Annabelle who was clinging to Garrett’s arms. These mother and daughter were indeed extremely audacious!
How dared they dug a pit for Cormac so openly and wantonly!
She had injuries on her leg and it was quite a struggle for her to help Cormac because he was physically fit. But thinking that he had become like this because of her, she was slightly guilty so she braced herself to help him out of the Flores family.
The surrounding of Flores’ villa was still brightly lit.
Garrett also found out that something was wrong. With such a high status, what kind of women had not been seen by Cormac? Did he need to harass Annabelle at the dining table?
He pushed Annabelle away and asked in a stern voice, “What the hell is going on?”
“It’s just that Cormac has a crush on Annabelle…”
Thwack!
Before Beulah could finish her words, she was slapped by Garrett who was glaring at her, “Still don’t want to tell the truth? You thought your daughter is a goddess who can let a man with high status harass her openly at the dining table?!”
Knowing that she could not hide it anymore, Beulah knelt on the ground and embraced Garrett’s leg,
“Garrett, the reason I do this is for your sake. Loredana clearly doesn’t want to help us, so I think that if Annabelle can let Cormac like her, the problem faced by the company can probably be solved. I may have done a poor job but my original intention is good, I just want to do something for you.”
Beulah cried her heart out while her face was pressed against Garrett’s pants, “Garrett, I’m anxious to see the company encounter difficulties. However, I’m only a woman, the thing I can do for you is limited, that’s why I…I…I know I made a mistake, forgive me.”
Garrett’s expression did not ease. His brain was buzzing and he felt chaotic.
Annabelle was also sobbing her heart out at the side.
“Both of you, shut up!” Garrett chided.
He glanced at Beulah fiercely, “See how disgraced you are now!”
There were maids at home who were watching.
At this moment, the maids were hiding in the kitchen, not daring to come out.
They did not dare to watch their boss’s joke. It was because they might lose their jobs and this was not worth the candle.
Beulah got up falteringly while wiping her tears, “Garrett, my original intention was to help you…”
“Did you manage to help successfully?!” Garrett was already in a frustrated mood due to the matter of the company and he was asked to give a sum of money to Loredana. So, he was already very livid but Beulah still did such a stupid thing.
He was so furious that he even had the intention to stab someone to death.
Annabelle had never seen Garrett being so angry, and she accidentally made a crying sound due to her fear.
Garrett kicked her, “Cry and cry, you just know how to cry. What else can you do other than crying?
You’re really a useless thing for me to raise!”
Went and made Cormac love you if you were so good!
Crying was totally useless!
Garrett was so angry today that he let Beulah and Annabelle stay outside, and did not allow them to enter the house.
Outside the house.
Loredana helped Cormac to get in the car. Cormac seemed to be in a drunk state as he was a bit unconscious. She did not know how to drive, “I have to ask someone to help us.”
She took out her phone. She did not know many people in this country and perhaps Sampson was the only one who was willing to help her.
She took out her phone and found Sampson’s number. When she was about to dial it, her wrist was suddenly clutched. The person who was originally not awake was now staring at her, “Who are you calling?”
